If you asked high school girls to name their favorite sports, most would probably say basketball or volleyball. I happen to be one of the few girls who would _1_: surfing (沖浪运动). But isn’t that a boy thing? Some people _2_. Most certainly not.
I started surfing about five years ago and _3_ in love with the sport on the very first day. Riding that first _4_ was the best feeling I had ever experienced.
When I try to _5_ surfing with other things, I find it very difficult because, in my _6_, there’s nothing like it. It involves(牵涉到) body, _7_, and soul. There’s sand between my toes and cool, salt water all _8_ us. The feeling I get when I’m surfing across that _9_, becoming one with the _10_, is like I’m weightless.
The one thing I can _11_ from surfing and not any other sport is endless challenge(挑战). You can never be the “best surfer” because the ocean _12_ an uncountable variety of waves that nobody can ever master. The variations of surfing styles are wonderful. Some surfers are free and flowing; others are very aggressive (活跃有力的) and _13_. All of these things attract me to surfing and make it _14_ from any other sport.
I’ve _15_ to tell every girl I know to do something that people don’t think girls can do. It’s part of being human to advance to new _16_, so shouldn’t it be expected that girls should step up and start _17_ the limits of things boys and men used to dominate (主宰)? There’re women _18_ side by side with the President of our country, so why not side by side with the boys _19_ the football team or out in the water surfing? Give girls a chance to _20_, and they will.
