“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 destinatiion 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.
【语篇解读】 电影中的邦德让跑酷运动风靡全球，它既是对人体能力极限的挑战，也是对人生意志与自由的追求。

(2011年大纲卷)“I didn't hear them call my name，” explained Shelley Henning to Active Teens (AT) as she talked about that exciting moment on national television when she won the honor of Miss Teen USA 2004.“Are you ready？” is what she heard.Then she said，“I shook my head no，and then they said ‘yes’ and it was announced again.”
It was four days after that life changing moment for the seventeenyearold high school student from Destrehan，Louisiana－she was still on_cloud_nine.
“I was so shocked！I never believed that it could actually really happen.”Present in the audience(观众) that day were：her mother and father，older brother，her friends，and her dance teacher.
Understanding why members of her family and her friends would be there，AT asked why her dance teacher had traveled so far to see her compete(比赛)．“She's always been my role model.I've danced with her since I was six.She's been through so many difficulties and came through them all.I've learned to get over bad life's experiences and learned how to move on because of her.”
One of those bad life's experiences for Shelley happened three years ago when her brother Brad was killed in a drunk driving accident.He was 18.She found writing helped her get through the rough days.She said，“I write a lot about my brother.I writer a lot，a lot，a lot...”
As Miss Louisiana Teen，she traveled around the state speaking to teens(青少年) about the dangers of drinking and driving.In her role as Miss Teen USA，Shelley will continue to speak to youth about safe driving， in addition to many other things to help the youth.
When AT asked Miss Teen USA if she had any advice for our readers，she said，“Don't let anyone change you.Hang out with people that make you feel good about yourself.That way，it is easy to be yourself.”
