A Performance to Remember

Not many people may be familiar with a French figure skater named Surya Bonaly. Bonaly is one of the most decorated individuals in women’s figure skating. She won medals in nearly every competition she entered.

Bonaly did not start out as many young figure skaters do. For example, instead of learning to ice skate at a young age, Bonaly got her start in gymnastics. From the beginning, she showed promise as she began winning competitions for her tumbling routines. Her excellence and competitiveness paid off when, at the age of twelve, she won the World Championship in tumbling. From there, Bonaly turned her energies to ice-skating. Even at that young age, she was getting a late start in a sport that many skaters begin as early as age four. However, her strong gymnastics background helped fuel Bonaly's quick and early successes in competitive figure skating.

Bonaly soon earned praise for her powerful and athletic performances. Her fierce determination to win was noted. Bonaly was a strong skater, performing extremely difficult moves and landing them consistently. However, she soon found herself battling against strongly held stereotypes of what a women’s figure skater was supposed to be. This included ideas of a cool and aloof “ice princess” or as “cute as a button”—a perky ballerina on ice skates.

To set herself apart, Bonaly chose to wear bold and bright costumes instead of the pastel colors favored by other female skaters. It was also suggested by some that because she was black and did not fit the typical women’s ice skater model, Bonaly was judged more harshly than the other competitors.

Bonaly felt she had to do more than any other competitor to be accepted and, perhaps even more importantly, win. Her growing perceptions of a double standard became even more visible during the 1994 World Championships in Japan. Bonaly earned a silver medal, losing to Japan’s Yuka Sato. A visibly upset Bonaly claimed that her routine was far more difficult than Sato’s. She not only refused to stand on the second place winner’s spot at the podium but also removed her silver medal from around her neck. Some say that she behaved poorly. To that, Bonaly responded, “When you do sport, the rule is that you're supposed to play fair, to be a good athlete and good sport, I get it,"…"But I think at this point it was more an act of saying, 'OK, this is too much.' It happened many years in a row."

Bonaly is probably most famous for a bold and daring stunt she performed during the 1998 Olympic Games held in Nagano, Japan. By this time, Bonaly was a clearly established skating champion; she had already won numerous honors for her skating, including winning the French Nationals nine times, as well as being a five-time European champion. She was also a three-time world silver medalist.

The Nagano Olympics was Bonaly’s third time at the international winter sports competition. But she entered the games during a period when her skating performances that year were weaker than usual, due to an ongoing heel injury.

The extent of Bonaly’s injury was reflected in her low scores. She realized that she would not earn a medal. So, she decided to do something special in her last routine, the freestyle skate. The “something special”—a backflip—was a feat she was already known for. It had already gotten her into trouble as the jump was banned by Olympic officials because of the danger. But, knowing that this would be her last Olympics, Bonaly decided to please the crowd and not the judges.

In the middle of her routine, Bonaly abandoned her planned triple Lutz—a jump combined with three spins—and instead threw her arms overhead to do the back flip, landing successfully on one skate. Bonaly landed her flip cleanly and finished her program with no mistakes. The crowd went wild with applause and cheers.

Although her feat did not win her a medal, it was a move that, given its risk and difficulty, made people remember her. Twenty years later, people who saw this famous jump still talk about it. Bonaly remains the only female skater in history to do this jump successfully in competition. Although still illegal to perform in Olympic competition, the flip has now been named “The Bonaly.”

Bonaly will also be remembered for being a strong and outspoken woman of color in a sport that traditionally has few minorities. Her willingness to challenge traditional expectations for young female figure skaters has shown others that there are many different paths to success.

What is the author's purpose in "A Performance to Remember"?

A. to inform readers of a famous figure skater's path to success


B. to describe how different skating tricks have evolved over time


C. to persuade readers to think Bonaly is the best figure skater

D. to critique Bonaly for her behavior during skating competitions

Student paragraph:
Friendships are really good for you. They can help you become the person you've always wanted to be. Psychiatrist Joan Johnson: People with strong friendships report that they feel fulfilled in all areas of their lives, including their careers, while those without strong friendships state they are dissatisfied with their lives (see page 57). Joan Johnson on page 90: "A good friend will listen and be a sounding board when you are trying to decide what job field you want to pursue or which job to take." Friends are supportive about lives. They are good sounding boards.

need answer today Fourteen Days in Tokyo

It was July, and Todd wanted to hang out with his friends. Yet, on Friday, Todd and his family were flying to Tokyo, Japan. They would visit his grandmother, Obaasan. She liked being called by the Japanese word for grandmother. Obaasan promised to show them around Tokyo, but Todd really did not want to leave San Francisco.



First of all, they had to sit through an 11-hour flight to Tokyo. Todd’s mother was petite, so she didn’t suffer from the small amount of space each passenger had, but his father was soon complaining about leg cramps. This trip was even worse than Todd had expected.



After a taxi ride, they were at Obaasan’s apartment in a modern building. She met them with a big hug. Obaasan had prepared a special meal for them. Todd liked the rice and grilled tuna, but he didn’t care for the cake of soybeans called tofu. He had never eaten pickled vegetables, but the taste was not bad.



That night, Todd was exhausted and slept well. The next morning, Obaasan took them to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, the tallest building in the city. The observatory decks at the top are the best place to view all of Tokyo. It was a clear morning, so they could see Mount Fuji. It was the tallest mountain in Japan and a kind of volcano. Todd had never seen such a view! Maybe this trip would not be boring after all.



In the distance there is a volcano with a tree in the front of it.

Afterwards, they ate at a restaurant in the building. Everyone ordered sushi, a small, tasty food and a delicacy. Some pieces were rice rolled with fish and others were rice rolled with vegetables. The sushi in San Francisco was not nearly as good.



The next day, Obaasan took everyone to Sunshine City, a city within the city. It had shops, restaurants, and an indoor theme park with games and rides. While Obaasan and Mom went shopping, Dad and Todd visited the theme park where Todd played video games.



Everything was turning out to be more interesting than Todd expected, but his best time was at a bunraku, or puppet theater. The puppets were as big as people and seemed to be alive. Because the puppets were so large, everything they said and did seemed exaggerated. Todd loved the colorful costumes and sets.



When it was time to return to America, Todd did not want to leave. It had been the best two weeks of his life! He asked Obaasan if he could come back next summer, and she said, “I would love that.”
