People who play the sport need to be tough and be prepared to get hurt. Black eyes, broken bones, lost teeth and being knocked unconscious—all these are mon injuries.

We all use them, often without noticing what we39。re doing. I was arranging to meet someone for dinner last week, and I said I39。ll pencil it in my diary, and my friend said You can ink it in, meaning that it was a firm arrangement not a tentative one! Many of these new verbs are linked to new technology. An obvious example is the word fax. We all got used to sending and receiving faxes, and then soon started talking about faxing something and promising we39。d fax it immediately. Then along came , and we were soon all ing each other madly. How did we do without it? I can hardly imagine life without my daily s. Email reminds me, of course, of my puter and its software, which has produced another couple of new verbs. On my puter I can bookmark those pages from the World Wide Web that I think I39。ll want to look at again, thus saving all the effort of remembering their addresses and calling them up from scratch. I can do the same thing on my PC, but there I don39。t bookmark。 I favorite—ing from favorite pages, so the verb es from an adjective not a noun. Now my children bought me a mobile phone, known simply as a mobile and I had to learn yet more new verbs. I can message someone, that is, I can leave a message for them on their phone. Or I can text them, write a few words suggesting when and where to meet, for example. How long will it be before I can mobile them, that is, phone them using my mobile? I haven39。t heard that verb yet, but I39。m sure I will soon. Perhaps I39。ll start using it myself!(1)I39。ll pencil it in my diary in the second paragraph probably means . was a firm arrangement prefers a pencil to a pen arrangement should be written as a diary was an uncertain arrangement(2)A website address can be easily found if it has been______.

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 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 Bond39。s wonderful performances that the sport has bee popular worldwide. Yes, that39。s parkour, an extreme street sport aimed at moving from one point to another as quickly as possible, getting over all the barriers in the path using only the abilities of the human body.
