Question

Every student can learn rope jumping.

You can jump alone or with your classmate. You can also help turn a long rope for many others to jump over, one at a time. If you jump alone, you will need a short rope and it will be just enough for your height. Try ropes of different lengths until you find a right one for your size.

A rope should be turned slowly. It must also be turned high enough to let you jump freely and safely. Turning the rope freely and safely needs careful timing. In rope jumping, timing means turning the rope slowly enough for you to jump over at the right time without its striking your feet.

When you jump rope, your heart beats faster and your face has a healthy color. But if you jump too many times at first, you will get fired. You must learn when to stop for a rest before you jump again, If you practice, you can increase the number of limes you jumpers without resting.

【解析】A。全文的每一個段落都在討論rope jumping，即跳繩這種game。

C。由文章的第1段You can jump alone or with your classmate，既然是alone或with classmate，我們可以得知跳繩是一人或一人以上玩的游戲。

B。第1段的最后一句講到Try ropes of different lengths until you find a right one for your size(試試各種不同長度的繩子，直到你找到適合你的身材的一個 right on)，據(jù)此顯然可推出其中的one指的是“繩子”。

B。文章的第1段最后兩句告訴我們If you jump alone, you…，所以玩跳繩以前，必須找到適合自己的繩子。

D。我們可以在第2段找到Turning the rope freely and safely needs careful timing，這是與D項完全對應(yīng)的；另外，文中說的是slowing enough，而不是像A、B項所說的as slowly as possible和as high as possible，故排除A和B。根據(jù)文章最后一段中的You must learn when to stop for a rest before you jump again可將C項排除。
