In America, Virginia Beach has all the elements of a classic seaside resort: brilliant beaches, a lively boardwalk, plenty of restaurants and nightspots, and amusement rides are sure to appeal to kids. Many believe Virginia Beach is at its best in the off-season, when the town is less crowded but the weather is still mild.
Meanwhile, some safety tips should be followed, enjoying the happiness and excitement the beach offers.
The number l safety tip concerns ocean safety: pay attention to Flag conditions posted on the lifeguard stands. Lifeguards post a red flag to warn when the ocean water is dangerous. Take them seriously! Tourists from land-locked regions are particularly easily attracted by the magic of the waves. However, a calm ocean can become risky without warning. Make sure you swim near a lifeguard. Swimming without lifeguard protection is almost five times as great as drowning at a beach with lifeguards.
Never swim alone. Many drownings involve single swimmers. When you swim with someone else, if one of you has a problem, the other may be able to get help, including signaling for assistance from others.
Don't fight the current. The facts show that some 80% of rescues by lifeguards at ocean beaches are caused by currents. These currents are formed by surf and gravity, because once surf pushes water up the slope of a beach, gravity pulls it back. This can create concentrated rivers of water moving offshore. If you are caught in a rip current, don't fight it by trying to swim directly to shore. Instead, swim parallel to shore until you feel the current relax, then swim to shore. Most rip currents are narrow and a short swim parallel to shore will help bring you to safety.

(答案→)A 解析:文章主要介绍了美国弗吉尼亚美丽的沙滩景色和完善的旅游设施。其中,着重强调了游泳时的注意事项,提醒游客以安全为重。【小题1】根据“a lively boardwalk, plenty of restaurants and nightspots, and amusement rides are sure to appeal to kids”可知,弗吉尼亚沙滩有木制的小路,许多饭店和夜店和游乐园的骑乘设施。这里的rides不是骑自行车,C项不正确。故选A。【小题2】根据“Many believe Virginia Beach is at its best in the off-season, when the town is less crowded but the weather is still mild.”可知,许多人认为淡季去弗吉尼亚沙滩最好,那时游客不太多,天气也还比较温和。根据still mild可知,应该是秋季,还未到冬季。故选A。【小题3】根据“Make sure you swim near a lifeguard...Never swim alone...Instead, swim parallel to shore until you feel the current relax, then swim to shore.”可知,不能远离救生员,不能单独游泳,要顺着海流而不能有任何的抵抗,A、B、C正确,故选D。【小题4】根据“Swimming without lifeguard protection is almost five times as great as drowning at a beach with lifeguards.”可知,没有救生员在旁边发生溺水的概率是有救生员在旁边发生溺水的五倍。故选B。【小题5】根据第一段“In America, Virginia Beach has all the elements of a classic seaside resort: brilliant beaches, a lively boardwalk, plenty of restaurants and nightspots, and amusement rides are sure to appeal to kids...”可知,文章主要介绍了弗吉尼亚的沙滩美景和旅游设施。故选C。
