19、t/with an the opponent（对手）, governed by rules and conditions under which a winner is declared,  and the primary purpose of the competition is a comparison of the relative skills of the participants". Because cheerleading follows these guidelines,  it is a sport.   

20、 Cheerleading includes lots of physical activity. Like gymnasts,  cheerleaders must learn to perform lifts and tosses. This is where the "fliers" are thrown in the air,  held by "bases" in different positions that require strength and cooperation with other teammat

21、es.    Cheerleaders' goal is to be the best. Just like gymnasts, they are awarded points for difficulty, technique, creativity and sharpness. The more difficult the motions,  the better the score. Cheerleading is a team sport,  so without cooperation,

28、  and even babies show that it's complicated. People may not be born afraid of snakes,  but we are born able to see them quickly. In tests with pictures, people picked out snakes faster than they could find flowers, frogs, and caterpillars. It wasn't just snakes,
