英语作文：滑雪

Skiing is a desirable activity for young people. It

provides

the

excitement

that

the

youth

is

commonly

seeking.

The skiers can enjoy the thrill of gliding at tremendous

speed down a gleaming,white mountain slope. Often, with

split second tinting, they must dodge trees, stumps, and

rocks

——

or

find

themselves

suddenly

sprawling

in

the

snow.

If

they

have

more

than

average

skill,

they

can

sall

through

the

air

in

breathtaking

leaps

and

jumps

that

bring

excitement

to

the

onlookers

as

well.

True,

there

is

danger

in this excitement,but that is a risk the youth enjoys.

Furthermore, skiing is healthful. It provides exercise,

often

very

strenuous

as

the

skiers

trudge

up

a

mountain

path

or

work

their

way

on

skis

up

a

slope

of

deep

snow.

The

best

of

skiers

know

that

they

need

strong

muscles

to

successfully control their skis, so they exercise to keep

themselves physically fit. Another desirable feature is

the companionship that usually develops wherever skiers

gather. Friendships grow quickly on the slopes and in the

usual nearby

shelter where the skiers find food, warmth, and rest.
