it is to move，” said David Belle，the founder of parkour(跑酷)Do you love running？It is a good exercise，yet many people find it boring.But what if making your morning jog a creative one？Like jumping from walls and over gaps，and ground rolls？Just like the James Bond in the movie Casino Royale？Bond jumps down from a roof to a windowsill(窗台)and then runs several blocks over obstacles on the way.It is just because of Bonds wonderful performances that the sport has bee popular worldwide.Yes，thats parkour，an extreme street sport aimed at moving from one point to another as quickly as possible，getting over all the obstacles in the path using only the abilities of the human body.Parkour is considered an extreme sport.As its participants dash around a city，they may jump over fences，run up walls and even move from rooftop to rooftop.Parkour can be just as exciting and charming as it sounds，but its participants see parkour much more than that.Overing all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy(理念)behind parkour.This is the same as life.You must determine your destination，go straight，jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back from them in your life，to reach the destination successfully.A parkour lover said，“I love parkour because its philosophy has bee my life，my way to do everything.”Another philosophy weve learnt from parkour is freedom.It can be done by anyone，at any time，anywhere in the world.It is a kind of expression of trust in yourself that you earn energy and confidence.6Parkour has bee popular throughout the world because of _.Aits founder，David BelleBthe film，Casino RoyaleCits risks and tricksDthe varieties of participants7The underlined word “obstacles” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “_”Astreets BobjectsCbarriers Droofs8Which of the following is true of parkour?AIt challenges human abilities.BIt is a good but boring sport.CIt needs special training.DIt is a team sport.9As its participants move around a city，_.Athey can ask for helpBthey may choose to escapeCthey should run to extremesDthey must learn to survive10Which of the following is the philosophy of parkour?ASports and extremes.BExcitement and popularity.CDreams and success.DDetermination and freedom.CSchools are almost all connected to the Internet.But some have more technology，and use it more，than others.For example，some schools use puters for activities like video conferencing，to bring the world into the classroom.And some classrooms are equipped with things like a Smart Board，a kind of interactive whiteboard.Interactive whiteboards are large displays for presentations.They connect to a puter and can operate by touch.They can be used for documents or writing or to project video.Some teachers are trying creative new ways to teach with devices like iPods and mobile phones.But educators say the most important thing，as always，is the content.Yet technology can have special importance in some cases.Cosmobot is a therapy(治疗)robot.It stands about half a meter tall and has a blue body and a friendly face with big eyes.One child who works with it is sixyearold Kevin Fitzgerald.Kevin has developmental dyspraxia；he has difficulty moving his mouth and tongue.He works with Carole SemangoSprouse as he interacts with the Cosmobot during therapy for his condition.Here，he uses a set of buttons attached to a puter to make the silent robot move forward，backward or around in circles.Kevins mother thinks the robot has had a calming influence，helping her son get along better with his friends.Cosmobot was developed by Anthro Tronix.Corinna Lathan started the pany ten years ago to work with children with cerebral palsy，Downs syndrome，autism and other developmental disabilities.Children bee friends with the robot，she says.That can have a big effect on their behavior，helping them work harder and longer in therapy sessions.Corinna Lathan is currently working with a British pany to develop other socially helpful robots.She says they are still considered research tools in the United States，and not used as much as in places like Britain and Japan.But she hopes to change that.11Its known from the text that _.Aschools have easy access to the Internet todayBnew technology is seldom applied to teachingCthe Internet is of equal importance in schoolsDusing puters for activities is laborsaving12Which of the following is NOT right about Smart Board?AIts a kind of teaching facility.BIt can be used to project video.CIts a display for presentation.DIts not easy to be connected to puters.13Whats “dyspraxia” according to Para.5?ASpeech barrier.BMovement disorder.CVisual impairment.DLoss of memory.14Which of the following is RIGHT according to the text?ACosmobot is designed to play with.BCosmobot is costly and not user friendly.CCosmobot can be controlled by a puter.DAnthro Tronix is a designer of a certain pany.15What can we learn from Corinna Lathan?AShes employed by a British pany.BCosmobot is popular around the world.CShe wants to make previous products widespread.DIPods and mobile phones are valued in class.DLife es in a package.This package includes happiness and sorrow，failure and success，hope and despair.Life is a learning process.Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person.With each passing day we learn to handle various situations.LoveLove plays a pivotal role in our life.Love makes you feel wanted.Without love a person could go hayward and also bee cruel and ferocious.In the early stage of our life，our parents are the ones who show us with unconditional love and care；they teach us about what is right and wrong，good and bad.But we always tend to take this for granted.It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands and bees sensitive to others feelings.Kids make a person responsible and mature and help us to understand life better.Happiness and SorrowMaterialistic happiness is short lived，but happiness achieved by bringing a smile on others face gives a certain level of fulfillment.Peace of mind is the main link to happiness.No mind is happy without peace.We realize the true worth of happiness when we are in sorrow.Sorrow is basically due to death of a loved one，failure and despair.But these things are temporary and pass away.Failure and SuccessFailure is the path to success.It helps us to touch the sky，teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way.Success brings in money，fame，pride and selfrespect.Here it bees very important to keep our head on our shoulder.The only way to show our gratitude to God for bestowing success on us is by being humble，modest，courteous and respectful to the less fortunate ones.Hope and DespairHope is what keeps life going.Parents always hope their children will do well.Hope makes us dream.Hope builds in patience.Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour，because after every night there is a day.Nothing remains the same.We have only one choice to keep moving on in life and be hopeful.Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday，for it has passed and is beyond our control.Tomorrow is unknown，for it could either be bright or dull.So the only alternative is to work hard today，so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow.16In the passage，the author pares life to _.Aa
