Free running

New sports are invented all the time. They spread quickly around the world and find new fans.

A popular new sport in recent years is “free running”. It is also called “parkour (跑酷)”. This is a French word. It comes from the name of special (特殊的) training for soldiers. It is the sport of moving through a place by running, jumping and climbing under, around and through things.

Free running is not like other sports. You do not use a ball or a bat. You do not have to wear special clothes. In fact, all you need is your own body and the environment where you live. You can practice by yourself or with other people. The sport is a little like gymnastics, and requires great skill and athletic ability. Free runners try to get from one place to another over whatever obstacles are in their way. They do this in the fastest and most efficient way.

They do not use any other equipment, but their body. The sport involves running, jumping, climbing, swinging, rolling, and many other movements.

The sport was born in France. The founder (創(chuàng)始人) was in the army. In the army, they had special courses, and soldiers had to complete them. This made them stronger and fitter. He then taught it to his son. His son started using it in the city where he lived. Slowly, more people joined him and it became popular.

Now free running is popular with young people around the world. It has also appeared (出現(xiàn)) in films and music videos. It is also being considered as a possible new Olympic sport for future game. Of course, you must only practice with trained people, and you must fit!

A.China B.France C.America D.Hongkong

Clean, Convenient, and Cheap

Traffic is the main cause of air pollution and noise in big cities. For example, drivers in New York are famous for honking(鳴)their horns and shouting. That noise drives many visitors and the local people crazy. Other big cities have similar problems with their traffic.

City governments have a lot of pressure to solve these problems. The most common solution is public transportation. New York's biggest form of public transportation is the subway. Another solution is bicycle sharing. This is a system that provides cheap bicycles. In cities that have bicycle sharing programs, there are lots of spots that have parked public bikes. People borrow the bikes and use them. They can return the bike at the same spot where they borrow it, or they can drop it off at another spot.

Bicycle sharing programs are different in each city. In some cities, the bikes are completely free. They aren't even locked. In other cities, you have to pay a small deposit(押金). You get the deposit back when you return the bike. In still other cities, you need to have a membership with the bicycle sharing program. Once you have a membership, you can use a bike at any time you want.

Bicycle sharing is hugely popular all over the world. There are bicycle sharing systems in dozens of countries and hundreds of cities. In total, there are more than 530 bicycle sharing systems around the world, and that number is going up all the time.

People love this system. It can be great for connecting to other modes of transportation. It's quick to grab a bike when you need one and convenient to drop it off at any station. Bikeshare can also save a lot of money. The annual membership includes unlimited trips under 30 minutes. Whether you're using bikeshare to go to work or ride to meet friends, we bet you'll get there with a smile on your face. Getting places by pedal power gets great exercise. Even biking short distances can have positive effects on your health and stress level. Biking saves fuel, prevents carbon emissions(排放)and keeps pollutants out of the air. It's not only healthy for you, but also for the environment.

1.What causes air pollution and noise in big cities?

2.What is the most common solution to the problems?

3.What do you need to do if you want to use a bike at any time?

4.How many bicycle sharing systems are there around the world?

5.What's the last paragraph mainly about?

It was at least two months before Christmas when nine-year-old Almie Rose told her father and me that she wanted a new bicycle. As Christmas drew nearer, her desire for a bicycle didn’t seem that strong, so we bought the most popular present for little girls, Baby Sitter’s Club dolls and a doll house.

Then, out of our expectation, on December 23, Almie said that she “really wanted a bike more than anything else”. It was just too late. With all the details of preparing Christmas dinner and buying last minute gifts, how could we have time to select the “right bike” for our little girl?

So, here we were Christmas Eve around 9:00 p.m., with Almie and her six-year-old brother, Dylan, ready for sleep in their beds. Now we could only think of the bicycle and the disappointment of our child.

“If I make a little bicycle out of clay (黏土) and write a note that she could trade (用…抵換) the clay model in for a real bike, what do you think?” her dad asked.

“Well, for now, I think this is the best thing we can do. And she is ‘such a big girl’, so I think she will like it.”

So Almie’s dad spent the next four hours working with clay to make a tiny bike. On Christmas morning, we were excited for Almie to open the little heart-shaped package with the beautiful red and white clay bike and the note. Finally, she opened it and read the note aloud.

“Does this mean that I trade in this bike that Daddy made me for a real one?”

Smiling, I said, “Yes.”

Almie had tears in her eyes when she replied, “I could never trade in this beautiful bicycle that Daddy made me. I’d rather keep this than get a real bike.”

At that moment, we wanted to buy her every bicycle on the planet.

1.When did Almie first ask for a new bike? _____________.

2.What caused Almie’s parents to buy her the most popular present for little girls? ______.

3.Why was it too late for Almie’s parents to buy a bike for her on December 23? ______.

4.What kind of bike did Almie get on Christmas morning? _______________________.

5.What did Almie think of the present in the little heart-shaped package? ____________.

6.What is the implied (隱含的) meaning of the underlined sentence? _________________.
