【解析】

這是一篇說(shuō)明文�；�水是一項(xiàng)令人興奮的水上運(yùn)動(dòng)，可以有很多樂(lè)趣。這需要一點(diǎn)耐心去學(xué)習(xí)，但一旦你學(xué)會(huì)了，滑水是一項(xiàng)你可以享受的運(yùn)動(dòng)，只要你有船和足夠的平坦水域。文章就滑水需要準(zhǔn)備的用品和如何開(kāi)始滑水進(jìn)行了說(shuō)明。

【1】

結(jié)合后文Every water skier needs water skis and they differ depending on the size of the skier and the experience level of the skier. Of course, no one can water ski alone ,so you will need to find at least two people to go with you on your water skiing adventure.可知每個(gè)滑水運(yùn)動(dòng)員都需要滑水板，不同的滑水板取決于運(yùn)動(dòng)員的體型和經(jīng)驗(yàn)水平。當(dāng)然，沒(méi)有人可以獨(dú)自滑水，所以你將需要至少兩個(gè)人和你一起去你的滑水冒險(xiǎn)。以及最后一句After you have the boat , the people ,and the skis, you will also need a water skiing cable and a life jacket.可知在你有了船、人和滑水板之后，你還需要一根滑水纜繩和一件救生衣。由此可知，本段是在說(shuō)明你要滑水之前需要準(zhǔn)備的用品。故F選項(xiàng)“在你開(kāi)始滑水之前，有一些你需要的用品”符合上下文語(yǔ)境，故選F。

【2】

根據(jù)后文After you have the boat , the people ,and the skis, you will also need a water skiing cable and a life jacket.可知在你有了船、人和滑水板之后，你還需要一根滑水纜繩和一件救生衣。由此可知，上文提到了滑水板和人，那么本句是在說(shuō)明需要一艘船。故A選項(xiàng)“當(dāng)然，你需要一艘船”符合上下文語(yǔ)境，故選A。

【3】

根據(jù)后文The observer rides in the boat, but watches the water skier for any signals and helps the driver know when to start and stop.可知觀察者坐在船上，觀察滑水者的任何信號(hào)，幫助駕駛員知道何時(shí)開(kāi)始和停止。由此可知，第一次滑水需要帶兩個(gè)助手，一個(gè)駕駛一個(gè)觀察。故G選項(xiàng)“在你的兩個(gè)助手中，你需要一個(gè)駕船，一個(gè)觀察”符合上下文語(yǔ)境，故選G。

【4】

根據(jù)上文The skis will float ,but you want your body to be in a crouching position in the water. Your skis tips should be pointing out of the water.可知滑水板會(huì)浮在水面上，但你要讓身體在水中蜷成一團(tuán)。你的滑水杖應(yīng)該指向水面外。以及后文When you are ready, you give a signal to the driver of the boat ,who starts speeding.可知當(dāng)你準(zhǔn)備好了，你給駕駛員一個(gè)信號(hào)，他開(kāi)始加速。由此可知，本句應(yīng)當(dāng)承接上文說(shuō)明正式開(kāi)始滑水之前的準(zhǔn)備動(dòng)作。故E選項(xiàng)“你的雙臂會(huì)過(guò)度伸展，緊緊抓住纜繩”符合上下文語(yǔ)境，故選E。

【5】

根據(jù)上文Ideally you are pulled into an upright position with your skis underneath you, gliding along the surface of the water.可知理想情況下，你被拉到一個(gè)直立的位置，你的滑水板在你下面，沿著水面滑行。由此可知，上文提到的是理想情況下能順利開(kāi)始滑水，那么如果不順利的話(huà)可能會(huì)需要嘗試幾次才能成功。故D選項(xiàng)“要有一個(gè)成功的開(kāi)始，很可能需要嘗試幾次”符合上下文語(yǔ)境，故選D。
