Some young Cambodians are learning a new sport — skateboarding. The country’s first skateboard park is located on the grounds of a local charity group at the edge of Phnom Penh, the capital.
Sports like Khmer boxing and soccer are wildly popular in Cambodia. But Chea, who has been skating for 6 months, says skating has already become his favorite sport.
The skaters are learning tricks like launching off a jump or half-pipe and flying through the air on their narrow wooden boards.
A non-governmental organization called Skateistan Cambodia organizes weekly programs at the park. Skateistan started its work in Afghanistan years ago. Rory Burke is working with the group which expanded to Cambodia last year.
Rory Burke points out, “Yeah, it’s definitely not a typical Cambodian pastime (消遣). And I think the idea of ‘why skateboarding’ is that it’s not been done before here. We want to use skateboarding as something saying, ‘Hey, this is new, this is something different.And that kind of itself becomes a little bit of hook. People see it and they think and they say, ‘Wow, what is that?’ and they want to get involved. ”
Skateistan partners with local groups that work with young people. The park is on the grounds of the group known as PSE, where children attend school and learn a trade. There are almost one hundred twenty participants. They all come from troubled lives.
Seventeen-year-old Sang Rotha is a student at PSE. “Sometimes I don’t do well in subjects like math,” he says, “I feel bad when I find it hard to keep up with my lessons. So that is why I skateboard ---to improve my bad feelings. ’，
He says he began skateboarding more than a year ago. Before he started training, it seemed very easy. But it was very difficult to learn tricks, and he got hurt a lot from falling off.
Rory Burke says learning to deal with the difficulties is part of the lesson for these young skateboarders.
【小题1】 According to the passage, PSE is a group ______. | A．that works with Cambodian students | | B．for young Cambodians to learn a trade | | C．for young Cambodians in troubled lives | | D．for young Cambodians taking skateboarding |
【小题2】 What is said about skateboarding in the passage? | A．It was born in Afghanistan years ago. | | B．It is easy for young Cambodians to learn. | | C．It is as popular as Khmer boxing in Cambodia. | | D．It is a good sport to help get good feeling again. |
【小题3】The underlined part a little bit of hook probably means ______. | A．something strange | | B．something quite new | | C．something different | | D．something attractive |
【小题4】 It can be inferred from the passage that skateboarding is becoming ______. | A．a sport liked by most young Cambodians | | B．an increasingly popular sport in Cambodia | | C．a sport used to better young Cambodians’ life | | D．a good way to train young Cambodians’ learning skills |

What’s in
a name? Letters offer clues to one’s future decisions, apparently. Previous
studies have suggested that maybe a person’s monogram __1__ his life choices —
where he works, whom he marries or where he lives — because of “implied
self-esteem (自负),”
or the temptation of positive self-associations. For instance, a person named
Fred might be attracted to the __2__ of living in Fresno, working for Forever
21 or driving a Ford F-150.
Now a new study by professor Uri
takes another look at the so-called name-letter effect and __3__ other
explanations for the phenomenon. He analyzed records of political donations in
the U.S. during the 2004 campaign — which included donors’ names and employers
— and found that the name of a person’s workplace more closely related to the
first three letters of a person’s name than with just the first letter. But he
suggests that the reason for the association isn’t implied self-esteem, but
perhaps something __4__ the opposite.
Duyck, one of the researchers whose
previous work __5__ the name-letter effect, isn’t so quick to abandon the
implied self-esteem theory. He pointed out that the sample group Uri studied
may have biased the results: Uri analyzed the name-letter effect in a sample of
people who donated money to political __6__. Still, Duyck notes that Uri’s
theories are credible, and that even while some people may __7__ the same name
of companies, employees may be tending to those companies because they start
with the same letter as their names. In the end, whatever the explanation for
the name-letter effect, no one really disputes that self-esteem is __8__ on
some level. But the true importance of the effect is up for debate. “I can’t
imagine people don’t like their own letter more than other letters,” says Uri,
“but the differences it makes in really __9__ decisions are probably slim.”
