Question

【题目】 Do you know what PE class are like in other countries? In China, PE tests are required to graduate from both middle school and high school. To get good grades on the PE tests, Chinese students will need to practice running as well as doing sit-ups and pull-ups(引体向上). However, this is not the way that PE classes work in US high schools.

In my high school, we are required to take semesters of PE to graduate. We play real sports during PE class, such as basketball and volleyball. There are also some other typical American sports that we often play, such as kickball and dodgeball(躲避球).

I didn’t know the rules of kickballs and dodgeball when I first came to the US. The teacher asked me to sit on the sidelines and watch how other students played it in order to let me figure out the rules.

We also learn some useful life skills in PE. Last year, I learned how to do CPR(心肺复苏), which is a life-saving skill. We were also taught how to give first aid to someone who is choking(窒息). These skills are a large part of the final grade for the PE class in my high school. Self-defense(自卫)is taught in PE class as sell. This includes some tae known do(跆拳道)and karate(空手道)skills, as well as Chinese kung fu. It is practical.

I prefer PE classes in the US to the ones in China. I think they are more fun and useful. What do you think?

【解析】

本篇阅读是一篇记叙文。本文对比了中美两国的体育课，作者从自身经历出发，主要阐述了美国体育课的多样性，比如有各种球类课程，心肺复苏课程和自卫课程等。

【1】细节理解题。根据文章第二段第一句“In my high school, we are required to take semesters of PE to graduate.”可知在美国要毕业也是要学体育的，可推测同学们一定会认真对待，所以A、B错误；根据文章第四段第二句“Last year, I learned how to do CPR(心肺复苏), which is a life-saving skill.”和第四段倒数第二句“Self-defense(自卫)is taught in PE class as sell.”可知美国的体育课教的东西是多种多样的，所以C正确；根据第一段最后一句“However, this is not the way that PE classes work in US high schools.”可知中美两国的体育课并不一样，所以D错误。A、B、C、D四个选项中只有C正确，故选C。

【2】细节理解题。根据文章第三段第二句“The teacher asked me to sit on the sidelines and watch how other students played it in order to let me figure out the rules.”可知为了让我弄清规则，老师让我看其它学生打球，故选B。

【3】细节理解题。文章第三段作者描写了自己通过观看别的学生练习来学习如何打躲避球，所以A正确；根据文章第四段第二句“Last year, I learned how to do CPR(心肺复苏), which is a life-saving skill.”可知作者在体育课上也学了急救技巧，所以B正确；根据文章第四段倒数第二句“Self-defense(自卫)is taught in PE class as sell.”可知体育课也教自卫技巧，所以C正确；只有D选项如何处理运动中受伤的内容文章没有提及，所以D错误。A、B、C、D四个选项中只有D错误，故选D。
