students were randomly divided into two groups。 half took part in the intervention, which included a teacherled curriculum, parent training groups, academic tutoring and lessons in selfcontrol and social skills. The program, which lasted from first grade through 10th grade, reduced delinquency(少年犯罪), arrests and use of health and mental health services as the students aged through adolescence and young adulthood. In another latest study, by looking at the data from nearly 900 students in previous findings, researchers found that about a third of the influence on future crime outes was due to the social and selfregulation skills the students learned from ages 6 to 11. The academic skills, or hard skills like learning of physics, which were taught as part of Fast Track, turned out to have less of an influence on crime and delinquency rates than did the soft skills, which are associated with emotional(情緒的) intelligence. Soft skills might include teaching kids to work cooperatively in a group or teaching them how to think about the longterm consequences when they make a decision. Researchers drew the conclusion that these soft skills should be emphasized even more in our education system and in our system of socializing children. Parents should do all they can to promote these skills with their children as should education policymakers. To the extent we can improve those skills, we can improve outes in delinquency.(1)Fast Track was intended for children who .

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. Parkour is considered an extreme sport. As its participants dash around a city, they may jump over fences, run up walls and even move from rooftop to rooftop. Parkour can be just as exciting and charming as it sounds, but its participants see parkour much more than that. Overing all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy behind parkour. This is the same as life. You must determine your destination, go straight, jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back in your life, to reach the destination successfully. A parkour lover said, I love parkour because its philosophy has bee my life, my way to do everything. Another philosophy we39。ve learnt from parkour is freedom. It can be done by anyone, at any time, anywhere in the world. It is a kind of expression of trust in yourself.(1)Parkour has bee popular throughout the world because of . founder, David Belle varieties of participants risks and tricks film, Casino Royale(2)The underlined word obstacles in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to .
