Animals and insects can also enter this contest. But they might just leave humans in the dust! The first event is the long jump. The human athlete is Mike Powell. In 1991, he jumped nearly 30 feet, which is the world record for the long jump. That is about five times his own height. His petitor in the longjump contest is a frog named ―Rosie the Ribbiter.‖ Rosie set the world record for frogs in 1986 by jumping more than 21 feet. Her record has never been broken by any other frog. Compared to Mike Powell, Rosie’s jump is not that amazing. But wait! Rosie is only about 10 inches long when her legs are stretched to their full length. She can jump more than 25 times her size. Rosie, the frog, wins the longjump event. The next event is the high jump. Javier Sotomayor, the world record holder, can jump a bar (橫桿 ) 8 feet high. That is about as high as the ceiling in most homes. Looking around for someone to challenge his record, Javier might need a magnifying glass (放大鏡 ). The next contestant is a tiny insect called the spittlebug (吹沫蟲 ). The spittlebug can jump 28 inches into the air. It is only a quarterinch long, less than the width of a pencil. If the spittlebug were the same size as Javier, it would be able to jump 600 feet into the air. That is like a human jumping over a building 55 stories high! Though the humans lose the ―jumping contest,‖ their petitors would probably agree that Mike and Javier are still pretty excellent athletes. If only Rosie and the spittlebug could speak! 14. The underlined word ―contestant‖ in Paragraph 5 means ―_____‖. A. coach B. teammate C. challenger D. record holder 15. What can we learn about the spittlebug? A. It likes living on the ceiling. B. It is good at flying in the air. C. It is the same length as a pencil. D. It has a wonderful jumping talent. 16. In the author’s opinion, Rosie and the spittlebug’s jumping abilities are _____. A. surprising B. promising C. doubtful D. fearful 17.
