中学生の基礎英語　レベル２ Lesson 125 Wrap-up Friday

Kota and Angie are at Harry’s surf shop.

 

Kota: Wow, so many surfboards! There are lots of varieties.

Angie: Do you see any good ones?

Kota: How about this one, Harry? It’s very stylish.

Harry: No, no, no. That’s a short board. Short boards are usually for advanced surfers.

kota: Scott Wailani said, “The right surfboard will be your partner.” But what is the right surfboard?

Harry: Well, it’s different for each person. It depends on your size and skill level. Also, what are your goals?

Kota: I want to do cool tricks like Briony.

At Harry’s surf shop, Kota is choosing a surfboard.

 

Harry: When you choose your surfboard, the surfboard’s material is important. Soft boards are good for beginners. They float well.

Kota: I see.

Harry: But hard boards give you more speed. If you’re going to surf a lot, a hard board may be better. You can do more tricks.

Angie: Kota, you said that you wanted to surf every weekend.

Kota: At least!

Harry: Then I suggest a long, hard board for you. Take a look at these boards here.

kota: Ooh, I like this green and yellow one.

Harry: That’s a great choice!

Kota: I can’t wait to try out my new surfboard! I can stand up now. But look at Harry. He is moving from the bottom of the wave to the top. And back to the bottom. He’s zigzagging.

Briony: Yes, we call it turning.

Kota: How can I do that? I want to try it!

Briony: My dad taught me how to do it. He said to me, “Turn your head and shoulders first.” After that, follow with your body. Here, I’ll demonstrate on the sand!

Briony: Remember, turn your head and shoulders first. Then twist your hips and legs. You can do it. I promise!

Kata: OK!

Briony: This wave is a good size for you. I’ll catch the next one.

Kota: All right! Briony told me that I could do it. I trust her. Here I go!

OK, turn my head. And twist my hips…. I did it!

Briony, did you see that? Briony? Where is she?
Oh no! She’s not on her board. There she is!
Something bad happened to her. She’s in trouble!
Briony, are you OK? Someone, help!
