A fresh and gentle wind on your face, soft sand under your feet and blue waters as far as the eye can see. Is there any other Olympic sport that is played in such pleasant conditions as beach volleyball?

“I've gone to a lot of beautiful places, and met a lot of beautiful people.That wouldn't have happened if I had been playing another sport，” said Randy Stoklos, America's most famous beach volleyball player.
The sport began as a foura side game on beaches in Southern California in the 1920s.The first recorded two－man game took place there in 1930，and the first tournament was held in Los Angeles 18 years later.The winners were awarded a case of Pepsi.In the 1950s, women started playing and the sport soon spread to Europe and South America. Yet that time, beach volleyball was more an entertainment show than a sport, with beauty contests included. The Association of Volleyball Professionals was founded in 1983 and beach volleyball developed into a fast, athletic sport. Its worldwide popularity won beach volleyball a place at the 1996 Olympics in Atalanta, where 24 male teams and 16 female teams took part. At present, the US and Brazil are the best in the world at beach volleyball.
The game came to China in the early 1990s and there have been national tournaments since 1994.It became an official event at the Eighth National Games in 1997. China's You Wenhui and Wang Lu finished ninth in the women's beach volleyball world championships in Brazil.[语篇导读]　本文主要讲述了沙滩排球的历史。

Ⅱ.七选五
Imagine that you're an actor or actress performing in a play for the first time. You've learned all your lines and you know where to walk on stage. Waiting behind the closed curtain, you can hear the audience whispering. Then your big moment arrives! The curtain goes up, and the crowd falls silent. All you can see is the sport lights shining down on you.__1__The inside of your mouth is dry, and your hands are wet.
If you've experienced a moment like this, you know all too well what it means to have stage fright. It's one of the most common types of fear. __2__ You can experience this kind of fear when playing sports, giving a talk, or even speaking in class.
__3__ The experience differs from person to person, but the same chemical process occurs on each of us. In reaction to anxiety, our bodies produce a chemical that prepares us to either fight or run away quickly. Scientists refer to this as our bodies' “fight for fright” reaction. As a result, we feel the great energy that makes our hands sweat, our hearts race and knees shake.
__4__ Practicing your performance and following some simple tips can help you calm down and manage the feelings caused by anxiety. Firstly, dress comfortably and appropriately. Secondly, before the performance, take deep breaths and stretch to help relax your body. Thirdly, stay away from drinks that contain caffeine (咖啡因). __5__ Instead, try a banana! Some doctors believe that eating a banana can help calm your heart and the rest of your body. Finally, when you look into a crowd, try to focus on particular people rather than the whole group. These tips have helped many people learn to deal with their fears.
A．They might make your heart race even faster.
B．Maybe you don't have to be onstage to get stage fright.
C．Stage fright is really part of the body's reaction to stress.
D．With practice, we can learn how to relax while playing sports.
E．Then you try to speak your lines, but nothing seems to come out.
F．There's a time when stage fright prevents you from stepping onstage.
G．However, the good news about stage fright is that there are ways to deal with it.
