Careful timing is needed to turn a rope. ‎ ‎【答案与解析】本文是介绍怎样有技巧地玩跳绳这种游戏。‎ ‎1. A。全文的每一个段落都在讨论rope jumping，即跳绳这种Game。‎ ‎2. C。由文章的第1段You can jump alone or with your classmate，既然是alone或with classmate，我们可以得知跳绳是一人或一人以上玩的游戏。‎ ‎3. B。第1段的最后一句讲到Try ropes of different lengths until you find a right one for your size(试试各种不同长度的绳子，直到你找到适合你的身材的一个 right on)，据此显然可推出其中的one指的是“绳子”。‎ ‎4. B。文章的第1段最后两句告诉我们If you jump alone, you…，所以玩跳绳以前，必须找到适合自己的绳子。‎ ‎5. D。我们可以在第2段找到Turning the rope freely and safely needs careful ‎ timing，这是与D项完全对应的；另外，文中说的是slowing enough，而不是像A、B项所说的as slowly as possible和as high as possible，故排除A和B。根据文章最后一段中的You must learn when to stop for a rest before you jump again可将C项排除。‎ ‎*******************************************************结束 Many Japanese never take their vacations they should enjoy, but with the coming of “Golden Week”, a series(系列) of holidays following one after another in late April and early May, they pour out of the country by tens of thousands.
