  "Our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what 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 and then runs several blocks over obstacles on the way.It is just because of Bond's wonderful performances that the sport has become popular worldwide.

  Yes, that's 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.

  Overcoming all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy 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 become my life, my way to do everything."

  Another philosophy we've 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.

  Ecopsychology is a new area of psychology(心理学).Ecopsychologists study humans and their relationships to the environment(eco).They feel that the environment is very important to our sense of well-being.In fact,they believe it iscentral to our happiness.If we are going to be happy,we needto connect more with nature.Children are born with this feeling of connection to nature.They often spend long periods of time with plants,trees,and insects.However,as we age,we often lose that sense of joy in nature.

  Over the centuries,we have become more isolated(分离的)and disconnected from nature.This has hurt society.It has made us more violent,anxious,depressed,and lonely.Peoplewho are close to nature and have good relationships with animals have respect for life.They also have a better chance of being mentally healthy adults.When we understand our bond(联系)to nature-plants and animals— we will live together better as a society.

  Being a society that is separate from nature has also hurt the environment.Vast areas of our natural world are disappearing.We are overdeveloping the earth and using its resources in an irresponsible(不负责任的)way.It's time to stop this destructive pattern.Therefore,rather than spending our days in concrete buildings and around asphalt streets,weneed to spend more time with nature.Activities such as sailing,gardening,mountain climbing,walking along a trail,orjust relaxing in the backyard can help us reconnect with thenatural world.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。

  

Tell the Truth

  

  Miss Enderby, the headmistress, stopped Anna one day in the passage(走廊).

  “Now,”she said,“I want you to tell me the truth, my dear.”“Naturally,”said Anna shortly, fearing something terrible had happened. What on earth had she done? Could that light pat(轻拍) on the side of Betty head have made her seriously ill? Had that tablet(药片)given to Johnny for his headache yesterday caused his death during the night?

  Miss Enderby explained before Anna could think of further worrying possibilities.

  “I have had a most serious accusation(遣责、非难) made against you by Mrs Bond.”

  “Mrs Bond?”repeated Anna, not understanding. Janet Bond was a quiet little mother of a child. As far as Anna could remember she had never had caused to say an angry word to the girl.

  “Mrs Bond,”went on Miss Enderby seriously,“tell me that you swore(咒骂) at her daughter yesterday afternoon.”

  “Swore?”cried Anna heatedly.“I don't swear. At least not in school,”she added honestly.

  “But never, never at Janet Bond. There's never been any need.”

  “Mrs Bond's story is that Janet was a little late back to school in the afternoon According to her, the child had to spend some time in the W.C, which meant she set out from home a little late.”

  “Just a minute,”said Anna, beginning to understand.“she did come late, very late. I'd called the roll and marked her absence, of course. Then she wandered in , when we'd started our papercutting , and I believe I said she was a nuisance(讨厌的家伙). She didn't appear to hear, and was certainly quite unmoved and cheerful.”

  “Ah, a nuisance.”Miss Enderby jumped on the word.“Yor're sure you only said a nuisance?”

  “Mrs Bond said that you called her child‘blasted(该死的) nuisance’. Is that true?”

  “Indeed it isn't.”said Anna,“The childor the motherhas made it up!”

  Miss Enderby's face softened and she patted Anna's shoulder.

  “As I doubted, my dear, but of course I had to make sure.”

1.Anna appears to be ________.

[  ]

A.a good pupil
B.an anxious pupil
C.A trusted teacher
D.a bad teacher
