The word “parkour’comes from a French phrase roughly translated as “military obstacle course(軍事障礙課程).” All first glance parkour looks like an extreme sport, and it certainly has many of the same qualities of an extreme sport , However, it is considered by many traceurs as more of an anrt and exercise, which allows for individual expression and also prmotes, inner strength and personal growth,
It introduces us to complete freedom from obstacles, and it is this freedom that makes parkour very qppealing in strict control of modern societym It is method that’s available tous at any time to deal with the obstacles facing us, both metal and physical, No obstacle, no barrier can stop the tranceur,:they continue moving forward in spite of , and in harmony with these,
While parkour does allow for a great deal of originality , there are certain methods commonly used when practicing it, The traceur choose his/her own path through the environment to create unique and flowing movement, adapting ot and using anything in his pathm When many techniques or rmoves used to overcome obstacles are linked together in an efficient and continuous waym it is known as a “run”, If you see somoeone that looks like they’re running from the police, but there is no one running afterm it’s probably parkour,
This idea of the chase represents and expreses the movement of parkour quite well, In fact , it is the form of movemnent that our ancient ancestors may have used to hunt for food, or escape from animals on the plains of Africa , In adapting instantly to whatever comes forth wihtout thinking about it, we naturally flow over and around all obstacles. In practicing parkour, we are reviving and developing that ancient instinet(本能)
The attitude behind parkour also combines the mentality of a child at paly , That unlimited imagination and energy combined with a complete ignoring of social practices epitomizes(成為…的縮影)the traceur, Others look at a rail or wall and see a barrier; we look at it and see a launch pal. And her, let’s not forget that we do this because it’s fun! The world is our jungle gym, le’s go play!

Even though the researchers could not find an actual pseudoryx, a talented Vietnamese taxidermist was able to reconstruct a model from the parts the researchers brought to him , Scientists also analyzed the genetic material from a pascudoryx’s bones, Their analysis confinned that the pascudoryx was certainly a unique new specics, unlike any that had been indentified before.
Other crypto-zoologists are presently working to prove the existence of a small ape called the orang-pen-dek on the island of Suunatra, Still others are looing into sightings of the moa, a flightless bird which was thought to be extinct for hundreds of years
