Read the passage and choose the best answer for the questions.
In the extreme sport of BASE jumping, participants jump from fixed objects and use a
parachute to ensure a safe landing. There are four jump categories: buildings, antennas, spans
(such as bridges) and earth (or natural formations). The word, BASE was coined by Carl
Boenish, a film-maker who published films and magazines about sports6. By the time of his
death in 1984, which, ironically, resulted from a cliff jump in Norway, the sport had become
popular. While Boenish brought much attention to the sport, jumpers have been doing it since
at least the early 1900s, including a jump from the Statue of Liberty in 1912.
Modern BASE jumping evolved from skydiving, a sport in which participants jump from
an aircraft with parachutes. While the sports are similar, BASE jumps are performed from
lower heights, occur close to the jumping platform, and start at lower airspeeds than
skydiving. Because of these differences, BASE jumping involves more risks to jumpers. In
low altitude jumps, BASE jumpers can have difficulties controlling their body before
landing. If a jumper leans too far forward, he or she could tumble and not have enough time
to deploy the chute properly. The parachute of a BASE jumper needs to open quickly and
properly at low airspeeds. If a BASE jumper leaps from 500 feet, he or she will crash in
approximately six seconds if the chute does not open. If a skydiver's parachute opens
improperly, there is much more time to correct the problem or use a second chute. Because of
these differences, BASE jumpers require special parachutes and harnesses to complete their
jumps
Because BASE jumping does not involve aircraft, the same legal issues that apply to
skydiving do not apply. Before leaping into the air, BASE jumpers must consider whether the
property owners allow it; otherwise, jumpers could face fines for using sites that prohibit
trespassing or jumping.
26.Why did the author write this passage?
A.to inform the reader about extreme sports
B.to describe the similarities and differences of two extreme sports
C.to explain how BASE jumping became a popular sport
D.to inform the reader about the dangers associated with parachutes
27.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A.Diving Dangerously. B.Extreme Chutes. C.Freefalling.
D.Danger Junkies
28.Why is BASE jumping more dangerous than skydiving ?
A.BASE jumping requires special equipment.
B.BASE jumping is just as dangerous as skydiving.
C.BASE jumping does not involve the dangers associated with flying.
D.BASE jumping allows less time to correct a problem during a jump.
29.As used in the passage, the word deploy most nearly means
A.open
B.seek C.arrange D.inflate
30.According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
A.BASE jumping and skydiving are risky sports but pose no mortal danger.
B.There are no regulations regarding parachute sports.
C.Boenish helped popularize BASE jumping.
