I get into position and take a deep breath. The music starts and my mind is on my figure skating（花样滑冰）. Dressed in my shining blue dress and gliding（滑行） 1 the ice, I feel free.
I started figure skating again after the Beijing Winter Olympic Games. However, relearning figure skating at an older age was not 2. Balancing on those 1.5 mm - wide steel blades（冰刀）and stepping onto the clear ice for the first time in years, feelings of excitement and fear controlled me at the same time. I did not remember any of the 3 or spins that I had learned as a child. To make things worse, kids much younger than me were doing double or triple rotation jumps（旋转与跳跃）. I felt so out of place.
Did I really belong（属于）here? “You have as much right to be here as anyone else,” my Olympian coach 4 me. I was very thankful that I found a coach that treated me the same as her other students. Every day at practice, she pushes me 5 my limits.
During the course of learning new jumps and spins, falls are unavoidable. 6 I learn a move, I devote to practising and falling for hours on end（连续）, and there would still be a large chance that I could not finish it. Many times I have asked myself, “Was it really 7 it? So many hours of practice, and so much 8 spent on coaching and skating shoes, for what?”
Despite（尽管）these pains, every time I feel the wind rushing past my face as I glide, I am reminded of the reason that I started skating：This is the 9 thing I will get to flying.
The pain is temporary（暂时的）, 10 the joy of landing that jump I have worked on for months is something I would not trade for the world. Fall down seven times, get up eight!
( ) 1. A. below B. through C. over D. across
( ) 2. A. hard B. easy C. enjoyable D. possible
( ) 3. A. dances B. music C. jumps D. falls
( ) 4. A. improved B. suggested C. doubted D. encouraged
( ) 5. A. against B. over C. below D. beyond
( ) 6. A. Whenever B. Whatever C. However D. Whoever
( ) 7. A. equal B. worth C. helpful D. meaningful
( ) 8. A. time B. energy C. money D. pain
( ) 9. A. fastest B. closest C. finest D. easiest
( ) 10. A. and B. but C. or D. so
