五、阅读与表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读短文,回答短文后的五个问题。
I am a skateboarding coach. I give classes to teenagers interested in skateboarding. I also founded(创办) a skateboarding club in Beijing.
I started to learn skateboarding at 16 when I tried it with a friend. I love the sport because it is a great way to express myself. I have the freedom to develop my unique(独特的) style, showing my creativity and personality through tricks and even the way I design my boards.
I hope to share my love for skateboarding with others so I founded the OBT Skateboarding Club in Beijing and became a skateboarding coach after graduating from college. It's not easy to start a career like this. I faced many challenges, from financial struggles to making my parents see that skateboarding was a promising skill to learn. But I never give it up. Luckily, in the past few years, skateboarding has become more and more popular in China. More teenagers and parents come to my club to learn this cool sport.
The classes begin with basic skills such as rolling, turning, stopping and balancing. But I hope kids take up skateboarding for both athletic(运动的) and personal growth. It's common for my students to fall when they are practising. They need to know they will fail and fail again, but they are going to get it. If they don't try or fail, they will never grow or learn.
I am optimistic about the future of skateboarding instructors. In the past two years, more than 6 million people have started skateboarding in China, and most of them are between 8 and 12 years old. With the increasing popularity of the sport, I believe there will be an even greater need for skateboarding coaches in the years to come.
