第I卷 第一部分 阅读理解 （共两节，满分40分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。 A 难度：★★ My name is called and I walk calmly to the diving board. I take a deep breath and clear everything from my mind. The whole season comes down to this final dive, the one and one half forward somersault(空翻). This has always been my best dive, but there’s always that little factor called splash that can destroy the perfect ten. Standing at the end of the board, I realize how simple this should be. I’ve done it hundreds of times. All I have to do is cool down, concentrate and carry out what should be the dive that gets me first place in the championships. I look at my coach and friends for reassurance. For two summers, my coach has been working with me to perfect each dive I do. She’s always there for me. Last year I wasn’t even in the championships, but with her coaching, I ended up with an undefeated record in every meet this summer. We both know I’m ready. I look straight ahead, making sure my feet are in position. This is when I am most tense. I find that I’m holding my breath. Letting it out, I tell myself to calm down and just do it. One, two, three steps, I leap up into the air and land back on the board. Out of nowhere comes a surge(波涛) of power from under my feet, sending me soaring(升腾) into the air. My arms come together above my head and, straight as an arrow, I enter the water. |
