Question

阅读理解,

     Lots of people like diving into water because they can explore (探索) the underwater world.But there is
another kind of diving.Some people dive into the sky!This is really a very exciting sport.A skydiver goes
high up in the air on a plane,jumps off the plane and floats in the air with the help of a parachute.A parachute
is like a huge umbrella.It is put on the back of the skydiver.When the skydiver reaches a certain height,he
will pull a string and the parachute will open up in seconds and carry him gently down to the ground.
Skydivers like doing a lot of dramatic tricks in the air.After jumping off the plane one after another,they will
try to stay in the air and hold each other's hands.They can form different shapes.
     Is it safe to do skydiving?Yes,as long as we receive right.But sometimes,accidents do happen.In Canada,
two skydivers were killed in 1991 when they jumped off the plane.Because their parachutes got tied up with
each other.The parachutes could not open up and both crashed down and died.
