Surfing: It’s Not Just for Boys Anymore
If you asked high school girls to name their favorite sports, most would probably say basketball or volleyball. I happen to be one of the few girls who would 36 : surfing. But isn’t that a boy thing? Some people 37 . Most certainly not.
I started surfing about five years ago and fell in love with the sport on the 38 first day. Riding that first 39 was the best feeling I had ever experienced.
When I try to 40 surfing with other things, I find it very difficult because, in my 41 , there’s nothing like it. It involves body, 42 , and soul. There’s sand between my toes and cool, salt water all 43 us. The feeling I get when I’m surfing across that 44 , becoming one with the 45 , is like I’m weightless.
The one thing I can 46 from surfing and not any other sport is endless challenge. You can never be the “best surfer” because the ocean 47 an uncountable variety of waves that nobody can ever master. The variations of surfing styles are wonderful. Some surfers are free and lowing; others are very aggressive (活跃有力的) and 48 . All of these things attract me to surfing and make it 49 from any other sport.
I’ve 50 to tell every girl I know to do something that people don’t think girls can do. It’s part of being human to advance to new 51 , so shouldn’t it be expected that girls should step up and start 52 the limits of things boys and men used to dominate (主宰)?
There’re women 53 side by side with the President of our country, so why not side by side with the boys 54 the football team or out in the water surfing? Give girls a chance to 55 , and they will.

解析试题分析:文章的题目Surfing:It's Not Just for Boys Any more明显地告诉我们,本文是关于女孩子对冲浪运动的看法,而且提出了一个很鲜明的观点:冲浪运动并不再是男孩子的专利!
女孩子也能做,而且会有所成就。
【小题1】前后照应逻辑推理词义比较 如果你询问高中的女生们她们最喜欢的体育运动的名字,她们不是告诉(tell),给予(give),意识到(realize),而是回答(answer)你询问的问题。
【小题2】常识运用逻辑推理词义比较 先看语境:前一句的意思是"但是它难道不是男孩子的事情吗?(意思是:这是男孩子的事情。)";后一句的意思是"大多数人当然不……",由社会的实际情况和这两句的意思可以判断出,只是有一部分人(不太多)对此问题(前一句)不理解(understand),不相信(believe),不能作出回答(reply),而纳闷、惊奇(wonder),持怀疑态度,而大多数人却肯定地认为:冲浪运动是男孩子的事情。
【小题3】本题中的very表示强调,正是在第一天就爱上了surfing。
【小题4】常识运用 因为文章是在谈论冲浪运动,冲上第一个浪(wave)去是我经历过的最佳感受,而不是暴风雨 (storm)、航海(sail)或船(boat)。
【小题5】固定搭配词义比较 作者想把冲浪运动和其他运动进行比较(compare)。connect with连接, 联络,将...连起来;compare with与…比较;tie up with和…联系一起;bring带来,引起,通常不与with连用。
【小题6】逻辑推理常识运用 作者把冲浪运动当作了它的生活(life)的组成部分,她不仅仅只是在假期(holiday)里冲浪,当然工作(work)和学习(study)也不能耽误。in my life是"在我的生活中"。
【小题7】常识运用词义比较 冲浪运动涉及到身体,智力、智慧(mind)和心灵、精神诸方面,这三个方面共同组成人的身心发展因素。
【小题8】常识运用逻辑推理 在海洋里进行冲浪运动,身体的沿线(along),上面(above),旁边(by),而是身体的四周(around)都是凉爽的咸水。
【小题9】常识运用逻辑推理 冲浪运动可能要经过沙滩(beach),有可能是在湖(lake)里,但它主要还是脚踏冲浪板(board)在水(water)面上进行。
【小题10】常识运用逻辑推理 冲浪运动是在大海、大洋中进行的,就有和海洋(ocean)融为一体的感觉。
【小题11】逻辑推理词义比较前后照应 作者不是从其他运动,而是从冲浪运动中获得(get)了无止境的挑战的体会"。再则,前文The feeling I get when I'm surfing across that water,becoming one with the ocean也有暗示。take from减少, 降低;get from从……得到;make from由...制造; keep from阻止, 隐瞒, 抑制。
【小题12】常识运用逻辑推理词义辨析 你永远也不会是最好的冲浪手,因为大洋呈现、提供(offer)的是任何人都控制不了的、数不尽的、各种各样的海浪。catch抓住,捕获;include包括,包含;offer提供;collect收集,聚集。
【小题13】逻辑推理词义比较 有些冲浪手自由自在、娴熟流畅,有些冲浪手则活跃有力、生机勃勃。注意这两个句子的并列关系,应该特别注意free 和 flowing之间词义的顺承和协调"自由而流畅",后句的aggressive and__13__也应该是这样一种意义联系,故选择A,sharp可以表示"精明敏捷的,迅速活泼,有力有为"的意思,其它三项在意义上与aggressive的顺承和协调相距甚远。
【小题14】固定搭配前后照应词义比较 所有的这些都在吸引着我去冲浪,并使之不同于(different)其他运动。注意此段第一句The one thing I can get from surfing and not any other sport is endless challenge.也有所暗示。(be) different from和……不同。(be)far from远离, 远非;known和right通常不与from搭配。
【小题15】逻辑推理词义比较 我尽力(try)地劝我所认识的每一个女孩去做人们认为女孩不能做的事情。choose选择、挑选;try试图、努力;learn学习;promise答应、许诺。
【小题16】常识运用逻辑推理 朝着新的水平(level)不断前进是人类活动的组成部分。level水平,水准, 标准, 级别;point 点, 尖端;step步调, 步伐, 步骤, 措施;part 部分, 局部。
【小题17】逻辑推理常识运用词义比较 所以女孩子们难道不应当应拾级而上,开始冲破(push)男人过去主宰的事物极限吗?reach到达,伸出;accept 接受, 认可;push突出,突破攻击;set 放置,树立,调整。
【小题18】常识运用逻辑推理词义比较 在我们国家有女性和总统不仅仅一起坐(sit),步行(walk),战斗(fight),而且并肩工作(work)着。同时注意句子的一般现在时意义特征,表示经常性的行为。
【小题19】逻辑推理词汇用法 所以为什么女孩子不能够肩并肩地与男孩子一起踢足球,外出一起冲浪呢?介词on表示"在……供职"、"(是)…的成员",on the football team的意思是"是/成为足球队队员"。
【小题20】常识运用逻辑推理词义比较 给女孩子一个获得成功(succeed)的机会,让她们思考(think) ,感觉(feel)表演(perform),她们就都会有所成就。

SYDNEY 2005-01-01 08:33—Mother of two, Jillian Searle, had to choose between her children when she made a life-or-death decision.
Swept up by mountainous tsunami (海啸) waves at a Thai resort ( 旅游胜地), she could not hold on to both her young sons and survive . Fighting to stay above the waters , she had to choose which one would have to take his chances in the swirling torrent (漩流).

Lachie was found alive about 2 hours later clinging to a door and, looked uninjured as his mother spoke to reporters.

His wife Vicki and son Jake looked on in horror from a hotel balcony as he crashed towards the shore. Luckily , he stayed on top of his board until he reached the hotel , jumped off and got to safety as the ocean rolled back to feed a much larger tsunami wave on its way .
