　　“Parkour” comes from the French word, “parcours”, meaning “impediment course”．Nowadays, from the Parisian suburbs, parkour has become a widely practised activity outside France．It’s a physical activity with the aim of moving from one point to another as efficiently and quickly as possible, using principally the abilities of the human body．It is amazing to watch because it requires martial arts- like reflexes and mental zen with your environment．

　　It is meant to help one overcome obstacles, which can be anything in the surrounding environment – from branches to concrete walls- and can be practised in both rural and urban areas．

　　Parkour remains largely an activity practised in community．Parkour crews hit the city together and participate in what they call “jams” or “sessions”, which consist of different drills, where each traceur does the same move as the one before．

　　Parkour gains media exposure through advertising and films．District 13 is the English-language release title of the 2004 French action film, Banlieue13, directed by Pierre Morel．The film is notable for its depiction of parkour that were completed without computer generated effects．David Belle, a co-founder of parkour, appears on the film as one of the main characters．

　　For many traceurs, parkour is a gateway to absolute freedom from social constraints and a means to keep minds sharp．They view it as a discipline that provide something that, through lots of practice, can put you in a position of being able to move in a way that is animal like, fluid and graceful．Parkour is as moldable as a traceur’s creativity and physical capabilities allow．The number of movements is endless, and here are some：cat leap, roll, speed vault etc．

　　Parkkour is a highly demanding activity that requires the entire body to be in good health and well conditioned．Trying any of the parkour moves without prior training and proper instruction can result in serious injury．

Dear Anne,

　　I have done a lot of thinking about what happened last week for the past few days．　　1　　 I begin, I just want you to know that whatever I’m about to say are sincere thoughts from the bottom of my heart．I know that after what happened, 　　2　　 will be difficult for you to accept my apology．　　3　　 I want you to forgive me and think about our friendship．

　　What encouraged me to write this apology letter was our friendship, 　　4　　 is really valuable to me．I cannot even imagine ending our friendship because of 　　5　　 silly misunderstanding that took place between us．I feel that I acted 　　6　　 a rude way, but you never gave me a chance to speak out．I hope　　7　　 can understand each other better．

　　I agree that I should have trusted you and should 　　8　　 have been influenced by others．But now I really feel very regretful．I hope this letter will get you to give our friendship a second chance．I hope to get a positive reply from you．

Yours truly,

Jenna．

Directions：Read the following passage．Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage．Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer．

　　Teens between the ages of 13 and 19 years old are at the most difficult stage because parents tend to treat them as adults．However, teens are not keen(热切的)to get their homework done, or typically do what they should be doing．While your teens may lack the motivation to help you make a salad for dinner, they don’t lack the motivation to go to the movies, shop with their friends or talk on the phone．

　　Failure is generally an excellent motivator．Teens are often not allowed to make their own mistakes．They are told what they should do and how they should feel, so they don’t get to explore their own importance．It seems strange that failure should be considered to be a motivator, but it really works because it ties in with responsibility．When teens are allowed to fail and the parents explore the reasons for the failure with input from the children rather than telling them why they failed-teens learn from their mistakes．If they wish for a different outcome in the future, this is how they learn to achieve another outcome, or they will keep making the same stupid mistakes．

　　Participation is great for motivation – if teens are included in the drawing up of a plan; whether this is for getting their own homework done or managing their time, they will be more motivated to follow the plan．

　　Teens are not irresponsible because they forget to take out the garbage．

　　Remind teens with a sense of humor－it is not a life and death situation if taking out the garbage is forgotten; treat it lightly but firmly for a better response．If teens have agreed to a plan, they do need to be responsible, but reminding them to do something does not have to be unkind．A parent can tell a child “I love you” and say no at the same time．

Directions：Complete the following passage by filling in each black with one word that best fits the context．

Parents are busy people．If they are working, they are usually not at home 　　1　　 their children return from school．Sometimes it is necessary for parents to write 　　2　　 after-school note for their children．They sometimes put the note on the kitchen table, the refrigerator, 　　3　　 another place where their children are sure to find it．A note is often a 　　4　　 way to “talk” with a child than using the telephone．For one thing, parents have time to think about 　　5　　 they want to say before they write．　　6　　 another, the note lists all the information in one place．It is easy to read again and again．People often forget all the details that 　　7　　 hear in a telephone call．Finally, cell phones can be turned 　　8　　 or telephone calls not answered．For these reasons, after-school notes are very popular with parents．

　　Working women with young children often face a dilemma(进退两难的困境)of whether to keep working or to quit to take care of their children．Though the fact that married women work outside the homes has become a social trend, many people still expect mothers to stay home until their children are two or three years old．In my opinion, it’s unfair to deprive(剥夺)mothers of their right to keep working only for the reason of childcare．

　　Women also need a sense of achievement just like men．Working women often find it difficult to give up the chance of self-fulfillment(自我实现)and go back home to play the traditional role．The times that women should stay at home passed and we should not neglect(忽视)mother’s desire to seek further goals outside the home．

　　Besides, taking care of children is both parents’ responsibility(责任)rather than only mothers’．Children belong to both the father and the mother．So it is unreasonable to ask mothers to give up their jobs for childcare because it is also fathers’ duty．

　　Practically speaking, working mothers can help improve family finances．Though there’ll be extra expense for childcare service, working mothers have a steady income to help the family．Therefore, mothers’ working outside is good for the family, especially to those low-income ones．

　　In a word, to expect mothers to put childcare before everything is not practical in today’s society．Only if fathers and mothers cooperate can the problem of childcare be solved．
