【推荐1】Emmoni Lopez, a girl from Chicago, used to take dance lessons while her older brothers wrested (摔跤). But it turned out that she liked wrestling better. She has been practicing in a wrestling club for the last three years.
Lopez is not alone. A growing number of girls in the US are taking up wrestling. Officials with youth organizations in Chicago and the Illinois Kids Wrestling Federation (IKWF) said they’ve seen more girls taking part in the sport in recent years.
Between the 2015—16 and 2017—18 seasons, the number of girls who joined the IKWF grew from 363 to 503. There’s a competition just for girls at the end of each year.
In Lopez’s program, about half of the students joining the club’s free youth wrestling camp this summer are girls, Lopez’s coach Frankie Zepeda said. The club also has an all girls camp.
As Zepeda said, many of the girls become interested in wrestling through their brothers. “They probably just learn to…fight back.” he said.
One of those girls is Yamilet Aguirre, 12. She took up wrestling because she was bored just watching her brother wrestle. “I can have fun doing it,” she said “Girls are just as strong as boys are.” She won the girls’ state championship (冠军) this spring.

【推荐2】More and more people around the world are joining in dangerous sports. Some people climbed the highest mountains; some traveled into unknown parts of the world; some sailed small boats across the largest sea. Now some people begin to look for new excitement.
Bungee jumping (蹦极) and motorcycle racing (摩托车赛) are quite dangerous sports. Bungee jumping only lasts for a few minutes or even seconds. You jump from a high place, about 200 meters above the ground, and there is a rubber band (橡胶带子) tied to your legs. When you jump down, the rubber band pulls you up. About 2,000,000 people around the world have tried bungee jumping.
Why do people join in these dangerous sports? Some scientists say that it is because modern life has become safe and it is not interesting. Many people think that there is little excitement in life.
