Beach volleyball is one of those sports that can be an exciting game to play and watch.It’s really easy,and all you need is sand,a net and a group of people,of any age or fitness level,who want to have fun.
Beach volleyball can be played with as few as two people in each team,making a total of four people.However,if you are less skilled and experienced in the game,it will be easier to play with a larger team.The more players you have,the less ground each person will be responsible for covering and the more time they will have to recover between shots.If you only have a few players,each of you will get a lot of running for the ball after each volley(截球).If you are looking for a relaxing,fun,low-key experience,choose larger teams.
Beach volleyball is similar to regular volleyball in its rules.However,even experienced volleyball players do not realize how much more difficult it is to run and jump on sand.Since it is harder to move quickly on sand than a hard surface,play will be much slower than regular volleyball on a court.When an athlete trains for beach volleyball,he will focus on building lower body strength as well as upper body strength.Strengthening his legs is extremely important.This improves the player’s ability to move quickly and accurately on sand despite the resistance.The ability to jump high and land without injury is necessary for beach volleyball players.
Whether you are in it for the competition,or just to have a great time with your friends,beach volleyball can be very exciting and fun.You may start out with friends and may soon fall in love with the sport.

GO.STOP.GO.STOP.The travel ideas in my head were fighting.“Are you sure you want to head to Greece this November with Kathleen The weather could be unpleasant,”my husband warned.“You must go! Sunsets are among the most beautiful in the world and the island is a paradise(天堂)!”my friend Laura raved about her trip in Santorini last year.With her encouraging words, I bought our tickets to Athens, Santorini and Crete.
A sunny Saturday afternoon welcomed us in Athens.During the first few days, Kathleen and I tried a lot of unknown to us foods.And then came Tuesday.The moment we landed in Santorini, a big storm broke out.Santorini, normally a beautiful and popular tourist destination(目的地), was freezing, rainy and empty.With rain beating our faces, Kathleen and I headed for our hotel.
“This isn’t how I want to spend my vacation, Mom,”Kathleen said sadly.“Maybe Crete isn’t experiencing the same storm.Can we fly out later today?”My daughter thought up a clever idea.But we couldn’t leave.We’d just arrived.Payments for the hotel would be lost and the last minute air tickets would be expensive.“Let’s not decide right now,” I suggested.
During the next few days, we drove around though it rained hard.On the night at a restaurant named Poseidon, we waited and waited for dinner.“Your dinner will be out shortly.The cook is busy studying something beautiful,” a man who looked like a waiter said.When he saw our puzzled look, he explained,“He went out for a smoke, saw two beautiful ladies and began to chat...” We suddenly started laughing.
I realized some change had been happening since our arrival.“You know, Mom, you can’t live a positive life with a negative(消极的) mind,” my daughter said.We let go of our worries and enjoyed our trip in the following days.

My First Marathon(马拉松)
A month before my first marathon,one of my ankles(脚踝) was injured and this meant not running for two weeks,leaving me only two weeks to train.Yet,I was determined to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school.In my first P.E.class,the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball.I didn’t do either well.He later informed(通知) me that I was “not athletic”.
The idea that I was “not athletic” stuck with me for years.When I started running in my 30s,I realized running was a battle against myself,not about competition or whether or not I was athletic.It was all about the battle against my own body and mind.A test of wills!
The night before my marathon,I dreamt that I couldn’t even find the finish line.I woke up sweating and nervous,but ready to prove something to myself.
Shortly after crossing the start line,my shoe laces(鞋带) became untied.So I stopped to readjust(重新调整).Not the start I wanted!
At mile 3,I passed a sign:“GO FOR IT,RUNNERS!”
By mile 17,I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly.Despite the pain,I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.
By mile 21,I was starving!
As I approached mile 23,I could see my wife waving a sign.She is my biggest fan.She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 am or questioned my expenses on running.
I was one of the final runners to finish.But I finished!And I got a medal.In fact,I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.
Determined to be myself,move forward,free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签),I can now call myself a “marathon winner”.
9.How was the author’s first marathon
A.He made it.
B.He quit halfway.
C.He got the first prize.
D.He walked to the end.
10.What does the story mainly tell us
A.A man owes his success to his family support.
B.A winner is one with a great effort of will.
C.Failure is the mother of success.
D.One is never too old to learn.
11.A month before the marathon,the author .
A.was well trained
B.felt scared
C.made up his mind to run
D.lost hope
12.Why did the author mention the P.E.class in his 7th year
A.To acknowledge the support of his teacher.
B.To amuse the readers with a funny story.
C.To show he was not talented in sports.
D.To share a precious memory.

第二节 故事续写(25分)
阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
Super Lungs
I was always a huge fan of football,and watching a game at the stadium was definitely one of the best ways to be free from work and relax.Therefore,the minute I heard the news that there would be a game of our home team against the team from Mississippi,I booked a front-row seat,excited about having a fantastic weekend.
I was satisfied when I got seated in the stadium.
When the game began,however,I discovered that I was sitting directly in front of a Super Lungs.He seemed like a nice guy.But his idea of having fun at a football game was obviously nothing like mine,or most normal,well-behaved football fans’.It consisted of standing and yelling non-stop,as loud as he could.He yelled at the coaches,at the players,at the officials and at the Mississippi State fans in the next section.Always at the top of his lungs.
Super Lungs made an astonishing performance and kept it for us for the entire 45 minutes and never showed any sign of tiredness.He was so caught up in his world that he failed to notice he was ruining the experience of hundreds of others.
I felt that my ear drums almost got broken.His mouth was only two feet away from my ears.For a while I thought of shouting back and stopping him yelling.People around were turning to look at him,and I could read their thoughts: “Is he never going to stop ” And he seemed blind to those looks.
At half-time I escaped by walking for a few minutes outside the stadium.I was thinking of seeking an empty seat in the student section across the stadium but to my disappointment,the seats were all taken.I had no choice but to go back to Super Lungs.
To make matters worse,when returning to my seat,I missed my steps and fell heavily on the stairs.As I was struggling to stand up,a pair of huge hands helped me from behind.

【读后续写】
Paragraph1:
I looked back and saw Super Lungs’ smiling face and concerned eyes.“Are you all right ” he asked me,with genuine care in his voice.“Oh,thank you,I’m OK.” I smiled to him.Suddenly I felt he was gentle and kind.All that yelling,was only his way of enjoying a football game.It might not please me,but I certainly did not fully reflect his personality! Honestly,looking at him now,I couldn’t help marveling at how much passion he showed in a simple game.He surely was “enjoying life to the fullest”.
Paragraph2:
Super Lungs kept his shouting for another 45 minutes.However,I felt it much easier to bear.The funny thing was that I found myself joining him in standing and shouting,too! It was one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life.I suppose it’s important to tolerate and to love people around us.In that way we will be able to see them as real persons,rather than funny or annoying cartoons.
