It’s just like normal.water-sk1ing, being pulled. Go along behind a boat at 40 kmph (km per hour)—but without any skis! It sounds scary but it’s amazing! My cousin used to take me water-skiing, and that’s where I first learnt to stand up and balance. But I moved on to barefoot water-skiing when I did it for a laugh with some friends. And I loved it!Barefoot water-skiing is one of the most popular water sports there is—to watch, anyway! When someone jumps really high and then lands, it’s wonderful. And you didn’t need expensive things like boards, although a wetsuit (泳衣) is a good idea. But catching your toes on things in the lake can hurt. I guess you can’t help getting water up your nose when you start learning, too, as you have to lie almost flat in the water before pull yourself up─but it’s OK.Now I’m experienced, I’ve learnt not to attempt (尝试) new moves in rough water as it never goes well. Inside, I make sure I limit myself.to skiing directly behind the boat, where the water’s calmer. I ask the boat drivers to warn-me-about big waves coming, although they can’t always see them.Finding time to practice regularly is -hard as I’m still at school-but I’m not going to get any prizes. If l want to learn a new move, I need to repeat it over and over, and that’s not easy in winter when it’s cold. Lots of skiers say they’ll continue during cold water, but not many do.So I’m often the only one out on the lake!1.What is the writer trying to do in this text about barefoot water-skiing?A. To explain why he’s decided to become a champion.B. To describe what he does get better at his sport.C. To suggest the best ways to begin learning his sport.D.

If your felt hit something in the water, it’s painful.B. Although not much equipment is needed, it isn’t cheap.C. If you start in the wrong position, you breathe in water.D. Although you jump higher without skis, it’s harder to land.BA 17-year-old boy, caught sending text messages in class, was recently sent to the vice principal’s office at Millwood High School in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The vice principal, Steve Gallagher, told the boy he should not pay attention to his cellphone, but listen to his teacher carefully. The boy listened politely and nodded, and that’s when Mr. Gallagher noticed the student’s fingers moving on his lap. He was texting while being scolded for texting. “It was a subconscious act,” says Mr. Gallagher, who took the phone away. “Young people today are connected socially from the moment they open their eyes in the morning until they close their eyes at night. It’s compulsive (强迫的).”A study this year by psychology students at Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, Ga., found that the more time young people spend on Facebook, the more likely they are 10, have lower grades and weaker study habits. Heavy Facebook users show signs of being more sociable, but they are also more likely to be anxious, hostile (敌对的) or depressed. (Doctors, meanwhile are now blaming addictions to ‘night texting’ for disturbing the see patterns of tens.) Almost a quarter of today’s teens check Facebook more than 10 times a day, according to a 2009 survey by Common Sense Media, a nonprofit (非盈利的) group that monitors media’s influence on families. Will these young people get rid of this habit once they enter the work force, or will employers come to see texting and. social-network checking’ as accepted parts of the workday?Think back. When today’s older workers were in their 20s, they might have taken a break on the job to call friends and make after-work plans. In those earlier times, companies discouraged non-business-related calls, and someone who made personal calls all day risked being fired. It was impossible to imagine the constant (不断的) back-and-forth texting that defines interactions among young people today.Educators are also being asked by parents, students and educational strategists to reconsidertheir rules. “In past generations, students got in trouble for passing notes in class. Now students are skillful at texting with their phones still in their pockets.” says 40- year-old Mr. Gallagher, the vice principal, “and they’re able to communicate with someone one floor down and three rows over, Students are just fundamentally (根本地) different today. They will take suspensions (中途退学) rather than give up their phones,”4.The underlined word “a subconscious act” refers to an act ________.A. on purposeB. without realizationC. in secretD. with care5.Young people addicted to the use of Facebook ________.A. are good at dealing with the social relationships and concentrate on their studyB. have high spirits and positive attitudes towards their life and workC. have been influenced mentally in the aspects of behaviors and habitsD. are always in bad mood and have poor performance in every respect,6.Mr. Gallagher reminds us that the students in the past and those today ________.A. like to break rules and have the same means of sending messagesB. are always the big problem for the educators and their parentsC. like sending text messages but those today do it in a more secret and skillful wayD. cannot live without a cellphone7.What’s the best tile of the passage?A. Teenagers and CellphonesB. Teenagers’ Texting AddictionC. Employers and TeenagersD. Teenagers’ EducationCThe sun has begun to set and 1 bang up the smile I’ve worn all day, though I will make sure it is he first thing I put back on the next morning just in case it is “that day” I want her to see me at my very best.As usual, I eat dinner, clean the house, wrier the usual daily tings. And then I lay down hoping to fall asleep quickly, so my new day will hurry up and arrive; A new day with a completely new sin. But as I lay there and wait for the world to turn half way around, I think about her. And sometimes I smile, and sometimes that smile will turn into a snicker (窃笑), and then often that snicker will turn into a burst of laughter.And then there are times I get that lump, (肿块) in my throat and that tight feeling in my chest, and sometimes that 1 can’t stand that feeling and begins to turn into a tear, and often that tear increases greatly itself and 1 can no longer fight the feeling and I lose that battle Thensomehow through either the joy or the sadness I drift and find myself asleep. Then the dreams begin and keep me company until my new day arrives.When I am awake it’s with such excitement because I tell myself this could be the day that every other day has Jed up to and the first day of the rest of my life. Y quickly wear my smile because I really want her to see me at my very best, Then I look out the window because, even though I know it’s dawn I still have to confirm I’ve been given another chance to find her.And there it is ... the sun, even when it’s cloudy; somehow I still see it. And it smiles at me and I say, “Thank you,” and I smile back.Thank you for the sun, which began my new day. Thank you for feeling confident when I got up this morning that I would find her in this new day. But most of all, thank you for me not having to ever wait on another sunrise because whenever I want to see it, 1 will look at her and there it shall always be, in her eyes; she will forever hold it for me.8.The first thing the writer should do is to ________ the next morning.A. wear a smile once againB. forget what happened the day beforeC. eat dinner and clean up the houseD. thank his life for the new day,9.From the passage, the writer wishes her angel to see him ________.A. when he sleepsB. when he is dreamingC. when he is at his bestD. when he is greatly excited10.When the writer is awake the next morning, he is always, ________.A. sadB. disappointedC. happyD. excited11.Why does the writer say “thank you for the sun.” in the last paragraph?A.
