Trampolining

What’s more fun than standing still? Jumping up and down on a springy piece of fabric (织物)! This activity is known as trampolining and it’s sweeping the nation.

The idea of trampolining is ancient. Eskimos have been throwing each other in the air for thousands of years. Firemen began using a life net to catch people jumping from buildings in 1887. __【1】_

A gymnast named George Nissan and his coach Larry Griswold made the first modern trampoline in 1936. __【2】__ They named their equipment after the Spanish word trampolín, which means diving board. The men wanted to share their idea with the whole world. In 1942 they began making trampolines to sell to the public.

Trampolines may be fun, but they can also be dangerous. __【3】__ Clubs and gyms use large safety nets or other equipment to make it safer. Most trampoline injuries happen at home. Since trampolines are more affordable than ever, injuries are even more common.

These injuries happen for many reasons. People may bounce too high and land out of the trampoline or onto the springs. _【4】_ Perhaps the worst injuries happen when untrained people try to do flips (快速翻转). Landing on your neck or head can cause injuries or even kill you.

_【5】__ There are many things that you can do to practice safe trampolining. Trampolines have been around for a while now. They have brought a lot of joy to many people. They can be a good source of exercise and activity. They can help people improve their balance and moves. But they can also be deadly. It is important to follow some professional guidance. Be sure that you are practicing safety while having a good time. Happy bouncing!

How is everything going with you? As for me, I have a great news to share—I will finally get to be in a book!

Last Saturday morning, Dad and I were eating breakfast while we heard a knock on the door. I rushed to open the door. It was our neighbor Miss Lydia, that draws pictures for children’s books. Miss Lydia greeted me with a smile, looking happily to see me. Remembering my best manner, I said, “Hello, Miss Lydia. Won’t you come in?” Miss Lydia came in, sitting at the breakfast table, and said to my dad that he would like both of us to be her models in one of her books! I jumped off my chair and run to give Miss Lydia a big hug.

I hope my first model experience will be both enjoyable or unforgettable. I’m looking forward to hearing you soon.

Be clear from the beginning.

Maybe you hate it when someone interrupts you when you are sleeping every morning. 【2】, Let your roommate know about your preferences. It’s not fair to expect him or her to pick up on them right away, and communicating what you need is one of the best ways to get rid of problems before they become problems.

Respect your roommate’s things.

This may seem simple，but it’s probably one of the biggest reasons why roommates experience conflicts. Don’t you think he’ll mind if you borrow his shoes for a quick soccer game for all you know, you just stepped over an uncrossable line.【3】

Be open to change.

You should expect to learn and grow and change during your time at school. And the same should happen to your roommate, if all goes well. 【4】. Be comfortable addressing things that unexpectedly come up, setting new rules, and being flexible to your changing environment.

【5】

Treat your roommate like you’d like to be treated. No matter what your relationship is at the end of the year, you can take comfort knowing you acted like an adult and treated your roommate with respect.

A. Don’t borrow, use, or lake anything without getting permission first.

B. As the term progresses, realize things will change for both of you.

C. Getting along well with a roommate is really a difficult job.

D. Maybe you need moments to be silent after you wake up.

E. You should correct your bad habits first.

F. Follow the Golden Rule.

G. However, it can also be a great part of your college experience.

This is a true story which happened in the States.【1】man came out of his home to admire his new truck. To his puzzlement, his three-year-old son was【2】(happy) hammering dents(凹痕) into the shiny paint of the truck. The man ran to his son, knocked him away, hammered the little boy's hands into pulp(果浆汁) as【3】(punish). When the father calmed down, he rushed his son to the hospital.

Although the doctor tried desperately to save the crushed bones, he finally had to cut the fingers from both the boy's hands. When the boy【4】(wake) up from the operation and saw his bandaged stubs, he innocently said, “Daddy, I'm sorry about your truck,【5】when are my fingers going to grow back?”

The father went home and committed suicide.

Think about this story the next time someone steps on your【6】foot) or you wish to take revenge(报复). Think first【7】you lose your patience with someone you love. Trucks can be repaired, but【8】(break) bones and hurt feelings often can't. Too often we fail to recognize the difference between the person and the performance. We forget that forgiveness is【9】(great) than revenge.

People make mistakes. We【10】(allow) to make mistakes. But the actions we take while in a rage will impress us forever.
