Memo

To:     All Staff

From:  Jakie Mok , Secretary; Sports Development Committee

Date:   May 20, 2010

A week ago, “Sports for Life” programme was sent to the parents, requiring them to select a sport they wanted their child to play. Since then, our staff have received lots of calls from parents asking for more information about it . Here is a memo (備忘錄) for your reference when you answer the phones.

Sports 1:Basketball.

We expect that this will be the most popular of the four sports. Therefore, students should be advised to sign up as soon as possible . Students will take a private bus to and from Kwun Tong Sports Park .To cover the cost of hiring a bus , each student will have to pay ＄10 each time. There will be four basketball courts available for our use with one teacher watching over each game. 

Sports 2:Gym

We will be using St. Peter’s Memorial Park. There are two reasons for choosing this park. First, it is not very busy and crowded before 6:00 pm. Second, it has lot of trees with plenty of shade. Students must bring along two bottles of water to prevent thirst. Three activities, skipping , jogging , outdoor aerobics (有氧運動),all of which are free of charge, will be arranged. And there will be a teacher on duty for each of the activities.

Sports 3: Hiking

 Hiking(遠足)will take place at Kowloon Peak. The activity will start at 2:30 pm and finish 90 minutes later. Three teachers will accompany the students, and a hiking instructor will accompany each group of 15 hikers . Each instructor will cost ＄75/hr. Students are advised to bring plenty of water and sunscreen.

Sports 4:Swimming

 The Kowloon City Aquatic Centre is a 10-minute walk from our school. Four teachers will go to the pool and conduct the goings-on from the poolside. We will only be able to reserve the pool for one hour (i.e. 2:45pm to 3:45pm).Only students skilful at swimming can take up this activity. The pool will have two lifeguards present. Girls must wear a swimming suit. The cost is ＄10 per visit.

Answer 1

【答案】

1.答案A。

【解析】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Sports 1中第二句話“Therefore, students should be advised to sign up as soon as possible”可知，選擇籃球的學(xué)生最好早報名。因此可知A項符合文章。

2.答案 B。

【解析】推理判斷題。由文中“requiring them to select a sport they wanted their child to play”可以推斷出“每一個學(xué)生可以參加這四個運動中的任何一項。故選B。

3.答案D。

【解析】推理判斷題。由Sports 1中第二句話“There will be four basketball …… with one teacher watching over each game”， Sports 2中“And there will be a teacher on duty for each of the activities”，Sports 3中“Three teachers will accompany the students”及Sports 4中“Four teachers will go to the pool and conduct the going-on from the poolside”可以推斷出：每項運動，都有教師陪同。故選D項

4.答案C。

【解析】推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章中“Here is a memo（備忘錄）for your reference when you answer the phones”可以推斷出：這個備忘錄的目的是幫助員工將這個活動項目解釋給家長。因此選項C符合題意。
