Modern youth is less interested in sports; generally many young people sit before the computer’s monitor playing different games. However there are those who bound their life with dynamic physical activity. Parkour is very popular among youngsters.
Parkour is modern sport, art of obstacle passing mainly city jungles. Parkour appeared in France not so long ago and at once win the young people’s hearts. From the French language “parkour” is translated as obstacle line because the main goal of parkour is to occur fast in definite place using only your own body. The parkour creator David Belle considers that parkour allows changing your concern of the world and surrounding area, to accept obstacles as barriers and to find a way out. People who go in for parkour are called tracers, they wield power and speed. As I know authorities of some countries want to add parkour to the training course of policemen to tackle crimes more effectively.
I think parkour helps people to know their body, to learn to trust themselves and to be strong. Sure enough it doesn't do without injuries, but the main thing is not to give up, to be self-assured and resistant. It is very important to be engaged in physical activity for health promotion, and parkour is the discipline combining sport and philosophy, i.e. it develops both body and thinking.

Dear Tom,Thanks for your letter. It was great to hear from you. How are you keeping? I hope you are fine.As for me, I live in a small town. Each person in our town knows another. People in our town are very friendly and talkative. So I enjoy to live here.There are not so many places of entertainment in our town. Usually my spare time I spend walking with my friends or going to a park. It is impossible to accurately predict the weather in Russia in a year, but usually we have 20-25 degrees in June and July.Sorry, I have got to go now. It is time for my favourite TV show.Yours,
