沖浪運動
Surfing—the art of riding a wave on a pointed board—is the wildest, fastest natural water sport known to man. In recent years, it has developed into a major sport around the world, from Australia to South Africa. Australians brave(挑戰) men—eating sharks to ride the green waves Down Under, Hawaiian experts risk(冒…之險) their lives on huge, thirty foot swells(浪濤) against the wind of Oahu; Californians of all ages go out the year-round. In the winter, surf-riders put on life-suits to ride grave waves so cold that their flesh turns blue.
Surfing is no sport for weak persons. Swimming a quarter of a mile or more, and pushing a surfboard out to where the swells are just right for riding, can be real work. Then, at exactly the right moment, you climb up the wave and go fast across the face of a powerful swell with the white water jumping at your feet. The huge wave bites at your shoulder, threatening(威脅) at any moment to smash your flat. In the next several seconds, a cool head and lightning—quick action back to the pressure of the attacking wave will bring your board under control for that great ride down the back of the great, green mountain of water. Once on the beach, you know why surfing is growing in popularity as an international sport, and you’re glad to be a member of this new water world.

移民政策
“American dream? What a lie!” This comment(評論) was made by a Cuban teenage girl. She was attending a huge protest(抗議) in Havana, Cuba, against American immigration laws last Tuesday.
Tens of thousands of people, including Cuba’s President, Fidel Castro, took part in the protest to remember 30 missing Cubans, including 13 children. Their boat was lost in the Florida Straits after setting out from Cuba on November 17. It is one of the worst accidents involving(牽扯到) Cubans being smuggled(偷渡) into the US. Fourteen people died in the sinking of a smuggler’s boat in 1998, and about 40 people died in 1994 when a tugboat sank near Havana. Castro believes that the “Cuban Adjustment Act” is responsible for the 30 people disappearing.
This 1996 law gives special allowances to Cuban immigrants who reach US land by whatever means. It gives them resident’s status(居民身份) and chances to work. It is very different from the US policy to immigrants from other countries. Because it encourages illegal immigration and these types of accidents, some called it “the murderous law”.
The US uses the so-called “dry foot, wet foot” rule. Those found at sea are sent back to Cuba. But those who set foot on US soil are generally allowed to stay. Castro said that the law encourages Cubans to undertake dangerous sea journeys with the hope of living in the US.
The immigration policy of the US has caused many problems between the US and Cuban. The two countries plan to meet next month to discuss immigration issues.

A. He is one of the missing smugglers.
B. He is one of the persons who made the “Cuban Adjustment Act”.

D. Because they were against American immigration laws.
3. Which of the following is right?
A. “Cuban Adjustment Act” is a Cuban law.
B. Havana is a place in Cuba.
C. 43 people disappeared after they set out on November 17.
D. The American immigration law was made in 1994.
4. Why did so many people want to smuggle into the US?
A. They wanted to live a better life there.
B. They were treated badly in their country.
C. They had relatives in the US.
D. The Americans were very friendly.
5. What is the result of “Cuban Adjustment Act” ?
A. The two countries plan to meet next month.
B. It is very different from the US policy to immigrants from other countries.
C. Those who set foot on US soil are generally allowed to stay.
