“Can’t you see that I'm not a child any more? What do I have to do to prove that I've grown up?” These are questions that are asked time after time by teenagers around the world, and in every culture there's a different answer. For David, growing up on Pentecost Island in the South Pacific, the answer had always been clear. He had to become a land diver. Land diving is a tradition on Pentecost Island which inspired the better known sport of bungee jumping.
Every year at a ceremony called Naghol, the men of the island jump off towers thirty metres tall, with long vines ( 藤条) tied to their feet. A perfect jump is one in which the shoulders land gently on the ground.
People believe that this will help the crops on the island to grow. If the vine is too short and the jumper's fall is stopped before the shoulders touch the ground, the jumper is considered a coward ( 懦夫). If the vine is too long, the result can be serious injury or death.
As David climbed the tower, his mother watched from below. She was holding a toy car that he used to play with when he was younger. After a boy's first land dive, his favourite toy is thrown away to show that he is no longer a child.
“Before my jump, I felt very nervous,” remembers fourteen-year-old David. “As a child, I always used to watch the land divers at Naghol. Every year someone would get an injury. For a second, I panicked. I thought about changing my mind ... but you can't become a proper man without being a land diver.” David jumped. While the people down below were playing drums and singing, he fell head-first to the ground. Luckily, he landed safely and walked away with just a few bruises. And does he feel like a man now? “Well, I certainly feel more mature (成熟的),” he smiles. “And the girls in my village are much more interested in me than they were before.”
24. What do we learn about land diving from the text?
A. It is a show to entertain the tourists. B. It is a newer sport than bungee jumping.
C. It is seen as a way to ensure a good harvest. D. It is done to choose the bravest man in the village. 25. Why was David's mother holding a toy car?
A. She wanted to give it to him as a gift. B. It helped him to find enough courage. C. It was the prize given to the best diver. D. She planned to throw it away after his jump. 26. Why did David finally decide to jump?
A. He would be rewarded if he made it. B. He didn't want to let his mother down. C. He knew he wouldn't be seriously injured. D. He wanted to prove he had become a man. 27. How was life changed for David after his jump?
A. He was more attractive to the opposite sex. B. He was treated as an adult by everyone. C. He became interested in land diving. D. He took a more optimistic attitude.
C
Calls to “stamp out bullying (霸凌)” are an unrealistic reaction to the threat of litigation (诉讼)that hangs over all schools. Bullying is partly a consequence of human nature and partly to do with the environment.
From a teacher's viewpoint, it's not always easy to tell bullying from harmless fun where one of the involvers has gone a little too far. Naturally, we keep an eye on those students who are likely to be bullied
