Gametime cheerleaders39。 main goal is to entertain the crowd and lead them with team cheers, which should not be considered a sport. However, petitive cheerleading is more than a form of entertainment. It is really a petitive sport. Competitive cheerleading includes lots of physical activity. The majority of the teams require a certain level of tumbling (翻騰) ability. It39。s a very mon thing for gymnasts, so it39。s easy for them to go into petitive cheerleading. Usually these cheerleaders integrate lots of their gymnastics experience including their jumps, tumbling, and overall energy. They also perform lifts and throws. This is where the fliers are thrown in the air, held by bases in different positions that require strength and working with other teammates. Competitive cheerleading is also an activity that is governed by rules under which a winner can be declared. It is awarded points for technique, creativity and sharpness. Usually the more difficult the action is, the better the score is. That39。s why cheerleaders are trying to experience great difficulty in their performance. Besides, there is also a strict rule of time. The whole performance has to be pleted in less than three minutes and fifteen seconds, during which the cheerleaders are required to stay within a certain area. Any performance beyond the limit of time is invalid. Another reason for the fact that petitive cheerleading is one of the hardest sports is that it has more reported injuries. According to some research, petitive cheerleading is the number one cause of serious sports injuries to women. Emergency room visits for it are five times the number than for any other sport, partially because cheerleaders don39。t use protective equipment. Smiling cheerleaders are thrown into the air and move down into the arms of the teammates, which may easily cause injuries. Generally, these injuries affect all areas of the body, including wrists, shoulders, ankles, head, and neck. There can be no doubt that petitive cheerleading is a sport with professional skills. Hopefully, it will appear in the Olympics since cheerleaders are just as athletic and physically fit as those involved in the more accepted sports. It should be noted that it is a team sport and even the smallest mistake made by one teammate can bring the score of the entire team down. So without working together to achieve the goal, first place is out of reach.（1）What is the main purpose of petitive cheerleading?

Diwali is Hindi for row of lights. It is the most important holiday in India. Many people around the world are beginning to celebrate it as well. The United States is one of the places where the festival is being more mon. Diwali celebrations can now be found at American landmarks like Disneyland in California and New York City39。s Times Square. They are also held in many parks and museums. Neeta Bhasin created the Times Square event. She said Indian immigrants have found great success in America. But, she said, many Americans still do not know much about India. So, she decided to act. I felt it39。s about time that we should take India to mainstream America and show India39。s rich culture, heritage, arts and variety to the world, she said, and I couldn39。t find a better place than Times Square. Bhasin came to the United States from India 40 years ago. She is president of ASB Communications, the marketing firm behind Diwali at Times Square. Tens of thousands of people attend the event, now in its fourth year. In India, Diwali is a fiveday harvest festival held just before the Hindu New Year. The exact dates change from year to year but Diwali is always in the fall.
