I looked towards people who were watching the game. Sure enough， I found my mom. I always wished my dad were here. The farm needed his full attention， but I did not care.

Tony Wheeler was born to travel. His father worked for an airline. For the first 16 years of his life， Tony and his family lived in many different countries.

When Tony and Maureen arrived in Australia， people asked many questions about their trip. To answer these questions， Tony wrote a guidebook called Across Asia on the Cheap. The book told people about different countries’ weather， customs， and places to see. But unlike travel guides in the 1970s， Tony’s book also talked about places most tourists did not go to.

A bicycle may be seen by most people as just another vehicle （交通工具）， but for many Londoners， cycling is a way of life. According to a UK government survey in 2017， about 570，000 bike journeys were made every day in London. In fact， almost half of the vehicles that pass over London Bridge each day are bikes.

London introduced a public bike-sharing system in 2010. “There can be no doubt that our trusty bicycles have changed the way people get around our great city，” Johnson told The Guardian in 2015.

In London， bikes are used for more than just taking short trips to and from the subway. No matter where you want to go in the city， riding a bike is usually the quickest and easiest choice.

And it’s not just shared bikes that the government is encouraging people to ride. In many companies across the UK， the UK government’s Cycle to Work scheme （騎行倡議） allows workers to buy a brand new bike without having to pay any tax （稅）. This means that it’s common to see many people cycling to and from work， and some companies even provide workplace showers and lockers for their workers. More importantly， a cycle-friendly boss may let you off for being late if you rode a bike to work.

Not only is it great for the environment and our body， cycling is also good for the mind. According to National Geographic magazine， “Bike riding can improve people’s happiness.”

5. How does the author show the popularity of cycling in London ？

B. By giving examples.

D. By using famous sayings.

B. Free bike-sharing services.

C. Shorter working hours.

D. Tax-free bikes.

8. What does the text mainly talk about？

A. Cycling—a healthy way of life.

B. London’s public bike-sharing system.

C. How cycling has become popular in London.

D. Why Londoners are encouraged to ride bikes.

Most heroes are not super. They don’t appear in comic books， on television， or in movies. They just do what they believe needs to be done to make their world a better place. Bike Batman is one of them.

Bike Batman is an engineer who lives in Seattle， Washington. He is a cyclist who also buys and sells bikes as a hobby.

About three years ago， he was looking for a bike for his wife. He found one on Craigslist， a website where people list things they want to sell. As he often does， he also looked at Bike Index， a popular website that allows users to register their bikes and post reports when they’re taken. The bike， which he was considering purchasing， clearly matched one reported stolen on Bike index. Then he called the person who claimed to be the bike’s owner and arranged to meet him—supposedly to complete the sale. When the two men met， Bike Batman told the thief， “You’ve got two options. You can wait until a police officer gets here， or you can just get out of here.” You can imagine what the thief did.

After that first success， Bike Batman developed a safer routine. When he sees questionable bike ads on Craigslist， he cross-references the image with bikes reported on Bike Index. Once he has confirmed it with the owner， he arranges a meet-up with the thief and will call the Seattle police department so that officers can participate in the action. In more than half of the 22 cases in which he has got back and returned bikes， the thieves have been arrested.

The idea of a superhero punishing criminals feels pretty silly to him， but the main reason he continues his work is to keep up Seattle’s reputation as a friendly city.

Sandy was one of my best friends at high school. At that time， we often spend time together sharing happy and sadness as well. With her help， I made a great progress in my study. Last year， she decided study abroad. In other words， we would be separating for a long time. Before her leaving， I prepared a gift to show my best wishes to her. But she gave me an English book， that helped me improve my English. Since then， they have kept in touch with each other through e-mails. I think high of the friendship between us and look forward to see her again in the near future.

China's Most Scenic Train Rides

中國(guó)最美的火車旅行線路

While planes and high-speed trains get us to our destination quicker， as travelers， we also miss some fantastic scenery along the way. A long train ride allows us to slow down and enjoy more leisure time on the road. Here， we recommend some of the most popular railway trips in China.

盡管飛機(jī)和高鐵能讓我們更快地到達(dá)目的地，但作為旅行者，我們可能會(huì)錯(cuò)過沿途一些美麗的風(fēng)景。長(zhǎng)途火車旅行能讓我們放慢速度，盡情享受路上的悠閑時(shí)光。以下我們推薦幾條中國(guó)最受歡迎的火車旅行線路。

Road into the clouds

天路之旅

Route： Xining， Qinghai to Lhasa， Tibet

路線：青海西寧到西藏拉薩

Known as the highest railway in the world， the Qinghai—Tibet railway—or “Heavenly Road”—climbs to 5，000 meters above sea level. Since its inauguration in 2006， it has provided easier access to “the Roof of the World”. On the way， you can view different landscapes： the beautiful Qinghai Lake， the grand Kunlun Mountains， the mysterious source of the Yangtze River， the vast Qiangtang grasslands， and the Yangpachen landscape. When the train passes through Hoh Xil National Nature Reserve， you may even see Tibetan antelopes and other wild animals running on the plateau.

青藏鐵路是世界上最高的鐵路，被譽(yù)為“天路”，海拔高達(dá)5000米。2006年正式通車以來，去往“世界屋脊”（喜馬拉雅山）更加便捷。途中，你可以欣賞到別樣的風(fēng)景：美麗的青海湖、壯觀的昆侖山脈、神秘的長(zhǎng)江源頭、廣袤的羌塘草原以及羊八井風(fēng)景區(qū)。當(dāng)火車經(jīng)過可可西里自然保護(hù)區(qū)時(shí)，你甚至還可能看見在高原上奔跑的藏羚羊和其他野生動(dòng)物。

Voyage through history

穿越歷史之路

Route： Xi’an， Shaanxi to Dunhuang， Gansu

路線：陜西西安到甘肅敦煌

From Xi’an， the beginning of the ancient Silk Road， to Dunhuang， famous for the Mogao Grottoes， this is a trip through China’s history. The relics of the Great Wall in the Ming Dynasty， the Jiayuguan Pass， and the snow-capped Qilian Mountains are worth seeing. In Lanzhou， you can see the Yellow River flowing through the city. As the train passes through the long Hexi Corridor， endless views of the Gobi Desert await.

從古老的絲綢之路的起點(diǎn)西安到以莫高窟而聞名的敦煌，可謂是一段感受中國(guó)古老歷史的旅程。明長(zhǎng)城遺跡、嘉峪關(guān)以及被積雪覆蓋的祁連山脈都值得一看。在蘭州，你可以看到穿城而過的黃河?；疖嚱?jīng)過河西走廊時(shí)，一眼望去無窮無盡的戈壁沙漠盡收眼底。

Top choice for nature lovers

大自然熱愛者的首選

Route： Guangzhou， Guangdong to Anshun， Guizhou

路線：廣東廣州到貴州安順

This is a journey to embrace China’s picturesque nature. You can see dense forests and red soil in the western part of Guangdong Province. As the train climbs to the Yunnan—Guizhou Plateau， the gnarled rocky hills， karst landforms and layered terraces will amaze you. With blue skies， verdant mountains and fresh air along the whole way， it’s a good chance to relax and refresh yourself.

這段旅程將中國(guó)美麗如畫的自然風(fēng)景盡收眼底。你可以看見廣東省西部郁郁蔥蔥的森林和紅色的土壤。隨著列車開往云貴高原，古老粗獷的巖石山、喀斯特地貌和梯田也會(huì)讓你大開眼界。沿途有蔚藍(lán)的天空、蒼翠的山巒、新鮮的空氣，這是放松自我的好機(jī)會(huì)。

Trip for all seasons

四季旅行好去處

Route： Shenyang， Liaoning to Manzhouli， Inner Mongolia

路線：遼寧沈陽到內(nèi)蒙古滿洲里

This route stretches into the cold northeast regions of China. In winter， the endless forests covered with snow in the Greater and Lesser Hinggan Mountains are very attractive. In summer， it’s a good choice to escape the heat. There are extensive areas of grassland in Inner Mongolia. At every stop， tourists can experience the thigh-deep snow before returning to the cozy warmth of their compartment.

這條路線一直綿延到嚴(yán)寒的中國(guó)東北地區(qū)。冬天，白雪皚皚、一望無際的大小興安嶺的森林美景非常吸引人。夏天，那里又是避暑的好去處。內(nèi)蒙古有廣闊的草原。每到一站，游客都能從溫暖的車廂里出來體驗(yàn)一下積雪齊膝的感覺。
