“Our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what it is to move,” said David Belle, the cofounder 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 (哲理) behind parkour. This is the same as life. You must determine your destination, go straight, and 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. 小题1:Parkour has become popular throughout the world because of ________.A.its cofounder, David Belle | B.the film, Casino Royale | C.its risks and tricks | D.the varieties of participants | 小题2:The underlined word “obstacles” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “________”.A.streets | B.objects | C.barriers | D.roofs | 小题3:Which of the following is TRUE of parkour?A.It challenges human abilities. | B.It is a good but boring sport. | C.It needs special training. | D.It is a team sport. | 小题4:Which of the following is the philosophy of parkour?A.Sports and extremes. | B.Excitement and popularity. | C.Dreams and success. | D.Determination and freedom. |

I was watching a TV series one night when I took in one scene. A man was seeking his community votes, and people 36 wanted to know why they should give him their 37 . He took them to his house and on every 38 in his house was the word “Faith” pasted. People raised lots of 39 to find out why the word was pasted on his mirrors. He said, “My dad often 40 me to believe that as long as you have 41 , you should have faith. Every time you look in to the mirror, you’re looking at yourself and see ‘Faith’. ” The 42 I learned from this is simple — faith is a living thing and in the same way we’re all 43 given 24 hours a day and we’re all given the same measure of faith. Faith keeps us going when things get 44 ! Why is some people’s faith stronger than that of others? Exercise! If we choose to exercise our faith, it will 45 ; but if we choose not to, it remains weak. Some people might 46 that they don’t have faith, but we all practice faith every day even if we don’t 47 it was faith. Daily 48 , such as studying, investing or reaching for a dream, take faith. Faith 49 hearing and doing. I made a decision yesterday — to 50 reading the newspaper full of too much sad and 51 news. Why? Because I 52 there was a drop of my mental state after reading the newspapers. Faith, when it’s put to 53 , becomes a beautiful thing, It lifts your mental state to a higher place that 54 you to raise yourself up and declare, “Yes we can.” So make the decision today to strengthen your faith by 55 it.

I think that the most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps the most 36 thing we ever give to each other is our attention (注意力). Especially if it’s 37 from the heart. When people are talking, there’s no need to do 38 but receive them. Listen to what they’re saying. Care about it. Most times 39 about it is even more important than understanding it. One of my patients told me that when she tried to tell her story, people often 40 to tell her that they once had something just 41 that happened to her. Her pain became a story about 42 . So, finally she stopped 43 to most people because she just felt too lonely. When we interrupt what someone is 44 to let them know that we understand, we 45 the focus of attention to ourselves. But if we just 46 , they know we care. Many people with cancer can talk about the relief (宽慰) of having someone just listen. I have 47 learned to respond to someone crying by just listening. I 48 that passing a person a tissue (面巾纸) may be just another 49 to shut them down and take them out of their experience of 50 . Now I just listen. When they have 51 all they need to cry, they find me there with them. This 52 thing has not been that easy to learn. It certainly went against everything I had been taught since I was very 53 . I thought people listened only 54 they were too shy to speak or did not know the 55 . A loving silence often has far more power to heal than words.

A wise man was visiting the Ganges, a river which flows through northern India, to take a bath. He found a group of family members on the 26 , shouting angrily at each other. He___27 his disciples(弟子), smiled and asked, “Why do people shout in 28 at each other ?” The disciples 29 for a while and one of them said, “ Because we 30__ our calm, we shout.” “But, why should you shout 31 the other person is just next to you ?

Finally the wise man explained, “When two people are angry at each other, there is a distance between their ___34 . To cover that distance they must shout to be able to 35 each other. The angrier they are, the louder they will have to shout to __36 that great distance. What 37__ when two people fall in love ? They don’t shout at each other but talk softly, because their hearts are very 38 . The distance between them is either nonexistent or very small.” The wise man 39 , “When they love each other even more, they do not __40 , but only whisper and they get even closer to each other. Finally they 41 need not whisper. They only look at each other and that’s 42 . That’s how close people are when they love each other.” He looked at his disciples and said, “So, when you 43 , do not let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance each other more. 44 there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to 45 . You may end up becoming enemies, for instance.”

完形填空(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分) It’s good to make mistakes, and here is why. First of all, mistakes are a clear 36 that you are trying new things.It’s always 37 to try new things because when you are trying new things you are 38 .If you never try anything new, how can you 39 ? The simple answer is “You can’t”.With few exceptions, every single detail of development is the 40 of someone trying something new. When you are making mistakes, you are 41 .Edison failed 10,000 times before he 42 the light bulb.When asked how it felt to 43 that many times, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn’t 44 . Finally, when you make a mistake you are much 45 to success.Why ? When all is done, you will have tried some number of things before you succeed. 46 you make a mistake you eliminate (排除) one of those things and are one step closer. But this all doesn’t mean that you should go ahead 47 considering the consequences of a mistake.Quite the contrary, when you try something new, you 48 be willing to set some reasonable limits, so that in the event that it doesn’t 49 the way you want it to, you will be in a position to try again. We all have 50 resources in time and money, so don’t blow them all on one 51 to a problem.Realize that it probably won’t be perfect the first time, and allocate (分配) these resources properly so you can learn, 52 corrections, and try it again.Only by 53 and using your mistakes in this way, can you make significant 54 in your business or career. As an old saying goes, “If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not trying hard enough.” So go 55 and make mistakes.And learn.And grow.And succeed.
