Vanuatu is an island nation in the South Pacific. It is one of the smallest countries in the world. But for those who are interested in adventure and sport, there is a lot to do. Some of the best swimming, snorkeling and sea kayaking can be found here. Vanuatu’s islands offer visitors two of the most exciting and dangerous activities in the world: volcano(火山) surfing and land diving.
Volcano Surfing
On Tanna Island, Mount Yasur rises more than 300 meters into the sky. Yasur is an active volcano, and it erupts(爆发) almost every day, sometimes several times a day. For centuries, people have climbed this mountain to visit the top. Recently, people have also started climbing Yasur to surf the volcano. In some ways, volcano surfing is like surfing in the sea, but in other ways it’s very different. Volcano surfers try to escape the erupting volcano—without getting hit by flying rocks! It’s fast, fun and dangerous—the perfect extreme sport (极限运动).
Land Diving
Most people are familiar with bungee jumping, but do you know bungee jumping started on Pentecost Island in Vanuatu and is almost fifteen centuries old? The original activity, first called land diving, is part of a religious ceremony. A man ties tree vines (树藤) to his legs. He then jumps headfirst from a high tower to touch the earth with the top of his head—without breaking the vine or hitting the earth hard. Every spring, island natives (men only) still take part in this amazing test of bravery.
What’s the author’s purpose?
选项
A、To talk about the world’s best volcano surfers and land divers.
B、To introduce volcano surfing and land diving.
C、To talk about the dangers of volcano surfing and land diving.
D、To introduce the origin of volcano surfing.
答案
B
解析
通读全文可知,作者在第一段介绍了岛国瓦努阿图,并提到它为游客提供的两项世界上最刺激和危险的运动——火山冲浪和陆地俯冲;接下来分别介绍了火山冲浪和陆地俯冲这两项运动。因此B项(为了介绍火山冲浪和陆地俯冲)最能概括作者的目的。故选B。
