我国是一个海陆兼备的国家,其陆上邻国和隔海相望的国家数目分别是( ) A.12 5 B.12 6 C.15 6 D.14 6 答案: DParkour (跑酷) is a new
sport that is developing quickly in the world. The aim of parkour is to jump,
climb or run over any all stair, or fence on your path easily. Usually, it is
done in a city environment. Practicers take very wall or roof as their training
place. If you have seen the beginning of the James Bond movie Casino Royale,
then you have seen an excellent example of parkour.
David Belle, a young Frenchman, developed parkour in
the 1990s. His father's experiences as a fireman as well as an acrobat(杂技演员)influenced him a lot. His childhood friend, Sebastien
Foucan, is the actor in the movie Casino Royale with his parkour performance.
Foucan is thought to have developed free-running, which is a more artistic and
skillful type of parkour. David belle traveled to India and said one way he
trained was by watching a physical one. The aim is to become so skillful, and
it is almost unnecessary for you to think about the different actions in
running through a path full of barriers(障碍物).
Parkour is not exactly a sport. It is not developed
fro competition. It is more about learning to control mind and body in
difficult situations. There are many basic movements in parkour. One example is
where practicers swing through the narrow space between two bars while keeping
their body level with the ground. This is called the underbar. Other movements
are the tic-tac and the kong vault jump. Skillful practicers seem to get out of
control of gravity.
The popularity has spread largely because of parkour
videos and organizations on the Internet. And if you search on the Web, you
will find parkour groups performing their skills near you.
