極限運動
Rick Stevenson, 16 years old, spends every minute he can on the mountain. His friends and he go snowboarding every weekend. “It’s incredible,” he says, “The winds are so strong; the boards go 50 miles an hour.” His friend Laura Fields agrees, “No one goes skiing anymore. That’s for the old people.”
16歲的瑞克·史蒂文森在山上盡可能地多待一分鐘。他和他的朋友們每周末都進行單板滑雪運動?！罢媸请y以置信，”他說，“風這么大；滑板的速度是每小時50英里?！彼呐笥褎诶し茽柶潓Υ吮硎举澩?“現在再也沒有人去參加雙板滑雪運動了。那適合老人?！?/div>
Rick and Laura are part of a new trend in sports called extreme sports or X-sports. It has its own language, words such as “rage” and “energy”. It also has its own clothing, such as skin-tight bicycle suits in rainbow colors. And it’s not for the old or the easily frightened. Its philosophy is to get as close to the edge as possible.
瑞克和勞拉是極限運動或冒險運動新趨勢的一部分。它有自己的語言，比如“憤怒”和“能量”。它也有自己的服裝，比如彩虹色的緊身衣。它不適合老年人和容易受到驚嚇的人。它的哲學就是盡可能地接近極限。
