A
Some people say extreme(极限)sports are dangerous - and they're probably right - but hey, if
you're not afraid of getting hurt, You might as well do it with style! It is reported that regular
sports are not completely safer than extreme ones. Here is an introduction to three new extreme
sports.
·Ostrich(鸵鸟)Racing
South Africa and Jacksonville, Florida, USA are the two homes of ostrich racing. Why do some
guys like to attend this extreme sport? The show is that sometimes four or even ten ostriches are
marching forward and at a time, and this is seriously strange. For the supporters, there's a chance
to ride an ostrich. Although if you don't want to be bitten or kicked, you can use carts ( 木
车)like ostriches for racing instead.
·BASE Jumping
BASE represents several words—Buildings, Spans ,Earth Spans mean bridges and Earth
means cliffs(悬崖), but then the beauty of BASE jumping is that it's just launching(发射)yourself
from anywhere possible with a parachute(降落伞)ready to go.
Although BASE jumping dates back to 1978, it has been popular quite a lot recently because
there are pieces of videos on the Internet and every jump is a new possibility.
·Bird Man Suits
The bird man suit has a few names—the flying squirrel suit, wing-suit and bat-suit, it's a
specially designed suit that lets you glide(滑翔) through the air at controlled speeds—adding a
little extra to your usual skydiving experience. This is probably the closest we are going to fly. If
combining(结合)this with BASE jumping, you'll get some serious death-defying( 挑战死亡的)
excited feelings.
26. According to the passage, why is ostrich racing seriously strange?
A. Because ostriches may bite and kick people.
B. Because supporters have chances to ride ostriches.
C. Because four or even ten ostriches are marching forward at a time.
D. Because it has two homes, South Africa and Jacksonville, Florida, USA.
27. The following places are suitable for BASE jumping except ▲ .
A. the Little Mermaid B. Mount Fuji
C. the Leaning Tower of Pisa D. the Tower Bridge
28. What is NOT the function of the bird man suit?
A. It helps control flying speed.
B. It helps squirrels and bats fly.
C. It helps people experience gliding through the air.
D. It can help people get serious death-defying excited feelings.
B
It was the first day of class. Two of her new ESL (English as a Second Language) classmates
wanted to know where Tara was from. They were both from Korea. Because Tara looked Korean,
one of the women asked Tara, in English, if she was from Korea. Tara replied, "No, I'm not." Then
the women took turns asking Tara if she was from Japan, or Thailand, or China. To each question,
Tara answered them a simple no. Laughing, one woman said to the other, "She's not from
anywhere!" The two went to their desks, talking to each other in Korean.
The next day, the teacher divided the students into groups of four. The students in each group
asked introductory(介绍的)questions of each other. A student in Tara's group asked her, "Where
are you from?" Tara answered that she was from Korea. The two women who had questioned Tara
the day before were sitting only a few feet away. Both of them heard Tara's answer.
"Aha!" they both exclaimed, "You ARE from Korea!" Tara smiled and said yes. Then she
apologized(道歉 )to both of them for lying the day before. She told them that she had not wanted
to get into a Korean conversation with them. It had been her experience that many ESL students
continued to speak their mother language in ESL class, and Tara had not come to ESL class to
practice her Korean. In her opinion ,ESL students should try to speak English only.
