Stand Straight
The first thing that you need to do is,stand straight.If you feel that you are falling backwards,then just put your chin(下巴) up and slightly bend your knees.Don’t worry;this happens to all.
Confidence Is What You Need
The most important step while learning how to skate backwards,is having enough confidence in yourself and in what you are doing.How can you achieve this?By practice.Just practice rolling backwards down a gentle slop every single day or just by pushing off from a wall or something of that sort.But before you do that,make sure that the place where you are practicing is free from any kind of debris(碎片) because otherwise,you could land up in the hospital due to some accident.While going backwards,just get used to the feeling of moving backwards.One of the important ice skating tips and techniques is that if you feel that you are losing your balance,then scissor(做剪式运动) your skates.Keep practicing this till you are confident about it.
Maintain Speed
Confident now?Great!Now the next step is to maintain your speed.While rolling in a straight line with one skate,with the other try sculling(划桨),that is,keep pushing yourself backwards with an outwards stroke(滑动).Now bring the skate which you were using to scull,and then again,repeat the same process.Make sure that you put most of your weight on the skate which is moving straight and not the one with which you are sculling.Now,try the same thing using the other foot.Again keep doing this till you are confident enough.
Increase Your Speed Now
Once you are confident that you can scull with either foot,the next thing that you have to do is increase your speed.Try some of your own tricks now.Scull with either foot or with both at the same time.
Scull and Be Aware
While you keep one foot straight,keep sculling with the other.You can do that simultaneously with both feet.Concentrate on what you are doing but don’t get so involved,that you don’t see where you are going.If you are not watching your back,you might just bang against something or someone.
小题1:According to the text confidence comes from ______.
A.high speed | B.strict coaches |
C.constant exercise | D.good techniques |
a.Increasing your speed.
b.Being able to scull with one foot.
c.Being about to stand straight.
d.Trying some different tricks.
A.c→a→d→b | B.c→b→d→a |
C.a→c→b→d | D.c→b→a→d |
A.skate in a scissor gesture |
B.use both your feet to scull |
C.skate forward first and then backward |
D.put most of your weight on the skate with which you are sculling |
A.to compare different ways of iceskating backwards |
B.to introduce the culture of iceskating backwards |
C.to explain advantages of iceskating backwards |
D.to offer some advice on iceskating backwards |
The five music schools in Britain are a relatively recent introduction.They aim to provide an environment in which gifted children aged between seven and eighteen can develop their skills to the full under the guidance of professional musicians.
Children at specialist music schools spend between one third and one half of an average day on musical activities,for example,individual lessons,orchestras,chamber(室内音乐的) groups,voice training,conducting and theory.They also spend several hours a day practising in properly equipped private rooms,sometimes with a teacher.The rest of their time is taken up with the subjects:English,maths,basic sciences and languages.All five British specialist schools are independent,classes are small by normal school standards,with a high teacher/pupil ratio(比率).Most children attending specialist schools tend to be boarders,leaving home to live,eat and sleep fulltime at school.
What are the disadvantages?An obvious problem is the cost;the fees are high(£12,000£17,000 a year for boarders).However,each school will make every effort with scholarships and other forms of financial assistance,to help parents of outstandingly gifted children to find the necessary fees.Secondly,not all parents want to send their children to boarding school,especially at a very early age.Almost all the directors of the specialist schools express doubts about the wisdom of admitting children as young as seven into such an intense and disciplined(守纪律的) environment.They stress,however,that their main aim is to turn out “rounded and wellbalanced” individuals.
There is little doubt that setting musically gifted children apart from an early age can cause stress.Early signs of musical ability may disappear in their teenage years,while natural competitiveness and the pressure to succeed can lead to a deep sense of failure.But all specialist schools do keep a close watch on the progress of individual pupils,and offer help and advice if needed.
小题1:If a child’s musical ability is not recognized,________.
A.the child may misbehave |
B.the ability may fade away |
C.the child may lose interest |
D.the parents may become anxious |
A.Their academic work may suffer. |
B.Schools lack musical equipment. |
C.Music is not seen as an important subject. |
D.Parents and teachers do not work together. |
A.Their working day is longer. |
B.A range of musical training is offered. |
C.More than half the day is spent on music. |
D.The children have mostly onetoone lessons. |
A.Poor children may not be included. |
B.They may lose their individuality. |
C.There may be a discipline problem. |
D.They may not be mature enough on arrival. |
“How are three people going to travel on only one ticket?” asks an accountant.“Watch and you’ll see,” answers an engineer.They all board the train.The accountants take their respective seats but all three engineers cram into a restroom and close the door behind them.
Shortly after the train has departed,the conductor comes around collecting tickets.He knocks on the restroom door and says,“Ticket,please.” The door opens just a crack and a single arm emerges with a ticket in hand.The conductor takes it and moves on.
The accountants see this and agree it is quite a clever idea.So after the conference,the accountants decide to copy the engineers on the return trip and save some money.When they get to the station they buy a single ticket for the return trip.
To their astonishment,the engineers don’t buy a ticket at all.“How are you going to travel without a ticket?”asks one puzzled accountant.“Watch and you’ll see,” answers an engineer.When they board the train the three accountants cram into a restroom and the three engineers cram into another one nearby.The train departs.
Shortly afterward,one of the engineers leaves his restroom and walks over to the restroom where the accountants are hiding.He knocks on the door and says,“Ticket,please.”

In 1966,when Rocky was twentysix years old,his sevenyearold niece was struck by a car on the street of BedStuy.Had someone at the scene known first aid or CPR,she might have lived.But by the time she reached a hospital,she was dead.
His niece’s unnecessary death was one reason why Rocky became a paramedic (护理人员).Working for the Emergency Medical Service of New York City,he realized that more than half the city’s emergency calls came from highcrime areas.According to Rocky,residents of crimeplagued minority neighborhoods like BedStuy sometimes had to wait as long as 26 minutes after calling 911 for an ambulance while calls in richer white communities were answered in_a_fraction_of_the_time.
Rocky decided to find out more about the problem.His research showed that the richer communities had organized their own ambulance corps (特殊部队) to improve city services because the city was overwhelmed with calls.“If that’s the key to success,”he told his friend and EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) colleague,Joe Perez,“we’ll start our own corps in BedStuy!”
In 1988,Rocky had no idea that he and Joe would be attempting to establish the first minorityrun ambulance service in the country,or just how creative he would have to be to overcome the difficulty.The pair’s first challenge was to find a location for the headquarters.They took over an abandoned building that was commonly used by drug dealers.Because there was no electricity or running water (except for the leaks in the roof),the two men worked during daylight hours.They used a twoway radio to receive emergency calls.
Although they could make do with their new headquarters,Rocky and Joe still lacked the most important component of an ambulance service:an ambulance.An old Chevrolet (雪佛兰) got them to the scenes of accidents,fires,shootings,and stabbings.But the car didn’t always start.At times,they were forced to strap (用带捆绑) their trauma kits and oxygen tanks to their backs and run on foot to the emergencies.Everyone laughed,except the victims who were still alive when Rocky and Joe arrived.
小题1:The author believes the name “Rocky” fits James because________.
A.he is a tall and tough man |
B.he is tall and does something big |
C.he is living in a tough community |
D.he leads a tough community |
A.she had been sent to a better hospital |
B.she had got first aid and arrived in hospital earlier |
C.James had been at the spot |
D.emergency calls had been available in the area |
A.in a short time |
B.over a long time |
C.in the near future |
D.from time to time |
A.ambulance corps were only allowed in rich white communities |
B.James found white communities made more emergency calls |
C.city services were not enough to meet people’s need |
D.it was easy to establish the minorityrun ambulance service |
