I was most interested in the rope-dancing. A very thin rope is fixed thirty centimeters above the ground. People who want to become the King's most important officials（官员）jump and dance on this rope， and whoever jumps highest without falling gets the best job. Sometimes the King orders his lords to dance on the rope， to show that they can still do it. This sport is， of course， rather dangerous， and there are occasional （偶尔的） deaths as a result. It seems a strange way of choosing officials. There was another interesting entertainment. The King holds a stick in front of him， and sometimes moves it up and down. One by one， people come up to him and jump over the stick or crawl under it. They go on jumping and crawling as the King moves the stick. The winner is the one who jumps and crawls for the longest time， and he receives a blue ribbon （缎带）to wear round his waist. The second best receives a red ribbon， and the third best gets a green one. Many of the Lilliput lords wear their ribbons proudly at all times. I had certainly never seen entertainment like this in any of the countries I had visited before. （取材于扬州市"五个一百工程"指定阅读书目《格列佛游记》） 14．How high is the thin rope fixed above the ground？A.15 meters.
