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? A.To pare skills of participants.B.To make the audience feel amused.C.To attract more people to watch events.D.To cheer up the petitors on the court.(2)The underlined word integrate in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.

It carries the weight of a person39。s whole identity. A name can represent a person39。s ethnicity (種族身份) and culture, or show respect for their ancestral roots. A selfgiven name may represent a person39。s beliefs or chosen identity. Everyone has the right to have their name pronounced correctly. It is a sign of respect for a person39。s individuality. A person39。s name is to him or her the sweetest and most important sound in any language, Dale Carnegie writes in his book How to Win Friends and Influence People. Behind each name is a story, and when a name is anglicized (英語化), mispronounced, or ignored, that story is dismissed. A name mispronounced for a long time can negatively impact a person39。s attitude toward their own identity. It can create feelings of shame or embarrassment because they are made to feel like a burden. In the long term, this might cause someone to distance themselves from their roots. They may begin shying away from their native language, culture, and family for the sake of fitting in. In order to avoid this, many international students living in the . choose English names. People shouldn39。t have to ignore their identities for the sake of someone else39。s convenience. Everyone makes mistakes, and not everyone can get a name right on the first try. Mispronouncing a name repeatedly, however, shows a
