六、任务型阅读
People often think grandmas only care about family and housework. However, some grandmas have exciting hobbies in life. “Grandma Liu” from Chengdu is the best example of this. She is almost 70 years old, but she loves riding a skateboard at a local park.
Her hobby started in February 2022. At first, she just went with her daughter to buy a skateboard. Then she became very interested in the sport. Even though most old ladies wouldn’t try it, she decided to give it a shot.
At first, Grandma Liu often lost her balance and fell. But that didn’t stop her. She kept practicing every day. Slowly, she got better and better. Now she can ride very well and even has her own cool style. She always wears protective gear (防护装备). That is because falling at her age could cause more harm than it would to a young skater.
Grandma Liu is now a star on Chinese social media. Many people like her because she is brave and funny. But the best part for her is spending time with her daughter. Skateboarding together has made their relationship stronger. Her story proves that age doesn’t stop curiosity or passion (热情). “Don’t let others decide who you are. Be a cool granny!” she says. “Grannies can be both sweet and cool!”
51. When did Grandma Liu start her hobby
She started it in ___51___.
52. What difficulty did Grandma Liu have when she first started skateboarding
