Were you into skateboarding, surfing or snowboarding when you were a kid? We can remember our first (less than successful) go at skateboarding, as well as the first time we managed to stand up on surfboards.
It was so much fun that we were hooked on extreme sports. However, not everyone thinks that introducing children to extreme sports is a good idea.
Writer Jon Lackman considers whether sports like snowboarding, climbing and skateboarding could be dangerous to the growing bodies of young children. Lackman also looks for advice from medical professions.”
“Kids aren’t mentally ready for these activities,” says a doctor, Vani Sabesan. “They cannot realize the risks, and their parents can’t always be trusted to stop them.”
Sabesan is particularly worried about the influence of extreme sports on TV and the Internet on children. “What we’re seeing is that a lot of kids think they can do what the professional athletes can do.”
If someone, who was encouraged to go surfing at the age of five, was presented with a surfboard when he/she was seven, I think these worries are a little overstated(夸大的), if not misplaced.
Extreme sports can be dangerous, but there’s as much chance of falling off your bike or your roller skates(四轮滑冰鞋鞋) as off a skateboard or surfboard.
My own experience of extreme sports leads me to think that I’ll allow my own kids to try them in the same way my parents allowed me.
In sports such as surfing and snowboarding, there’s a sense of adventure and courage. It is important to tell young children about it.
Did I fall off my surfboard? All the time. Did I get back on? Every time.
1.What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To introduce the topic of the text.
B. To tell us what are extreme sports.
C. To encourage people to play sports.
D. To tell us what kind of sports the author liked.
2.Which of the following can replace the underlined part “hooked on” in Paragraph 2?
A. attracted by
B. shocked at
C. disappointed at
D. worried about
3.What do Vani sabesan’s words mean?
A. Kids who are mentally ill should not play extreme sports.
B. Parents are responsible for kids’ safety in extreme sports.
C. Kids are too young to realize the danger of extreme sports.
D. Kids should be encouraged to do what professional athletes do.
4.What’s the authors’ attitude to kids playing extreme sports?
A. He/She is against it.
B. He/She supports it.
C. He/She is doubtful about it.
D. He/She is unconcerned about it.

I want to tell you a story that changed my life many years ago. We were living in College Station, Texas and my wife and I were on our way home from Houston, Texas one Saturday morning. We decided to stop at a local restaurant to get something to eat since we had enough time. When we finished, we got back into our car and before I started it, we noticed a homeless man standing in front of the building. His clothes were worn and it looked as though he didn’t have any money. It was cold and I was sure he wanted something warm to drink; however, it was not this that I remember, because that is not what "moved" me. A dog was also walking up to the front of the building. Being a dog owner, I knew that the dog was a mother, and that she had just had some pups (小狗). She was hungry and weak and I felt bad for her. I knew if she didn’t eat soon, she and her pups would not live. People walking by didn’t even notice her. She was not as pretty and clean as most dogs, but she still deserved (值得) better. We still did not do anything, but someone else did. The homeless man, who I thought could not afford anything to eat, went into the store and bought dog food with all the money he had.

I want to let you know about an event that changed my life many years ago. We were living in College Station, Texas and my wife and I were on our way home from Houston, Texas one Sunday morning. We decided to stop at a local gas station to get something to eat since we had enough time.
When we finished, we got back into our car and before I started it, we noticed a homeless man standing in front of the building. His clothes were worn and it looked as if he didn’t have any money. It was cold and I was sure he wanted something to drink. However, it was not this that moved(感动) me.
A dog was also walking up to the front of the building. Being a dog lover, I noticed that the dog was a mother and that she had just had some puppies(小狗). She was hungry and weak and I felt so bad for her. I knew if she didn’t eat soon, she and her puppies would not live on.
People walking by didn’t even notice her. She might not have been as pretty and clean as most, but she still deserved(值得) better. But we still did not do anything, someone else did. The homeless man, who I thought could not afford anything to eat, went back into a store and bought dog food with all the money he had.
