It is fun, healthy and good for the environment. Maybe thats why there are 1.4 billion bicycles and only 400 million cars on roads worldwide today. Bikes can take you almost anywhere, and there is no oil cost! Get on a bicycle and ride around your neighborhood. You may discover something new all around you. Stopping and getting off a bike is easier than stoppingandgettingoutofyourcar.Youcanbiketoworkandbenefitfromtheenjoyableexercisewithoutpollutingthe environment. You dont even have to ride all the way. Folding (折叠) bikes work well for people who ride the train. Just fold the bike and take it with you. You can do the same on an airplane. A folding bike can be packed in a suitcase. You can also take a common bike with you when you fly. But be sure to look for information by getting on airline websites. Not all airlines are bicycle-friendly to travelers.Health Benefits of Bicycling:(1). It helps to prevent heart diseases.(2). Bicycling helps to control your weight.

In fact, you need the same skills in walking as in swimming. However, I believe that five is the best age to learn. By five or six, a child knows fear of water, a very important thing to know. Its wise to be afraid, to recognize true danger. Young ones understand that the water can sometimes be very dangerous.To really benefit from swimming, every swimmer should learn, as soon as possible, these four basic strokes; butterfly, backstroke, breastroke, and crawl. I feel that one of these-the breaststroke-is different from the others, since some young swimmers use this stroke naturally, without any training.In swimming there are certain rules every swimmer should follow:(1).Never swim alone! No matter how good you are in the water, dont risk drowning by swimming alone. If you swim by yourself, with no life guards or friends with you, you may get into trouble.(2).Dont go beyond your abilities. Most swimmers know enough not to swim too far from the bank or the beach, Showing off by doing dangerous tricks is no good. Swim safely and you will continue to swim and alive.(3).Dont smoke. Swimming depends on a healthy body; good lungs are part of it.(4).Work at any activity that builds muscles.25 .Little children can learn to swim as soon as _.A. they can talk B. they start walking C. they have no fear of the water D. they are five or six years old26. The author believes that fear of water is_. A. stupid B. sensible C. dangerous D. not smart27. The stroke that some young swimmers use first is_. A. Picture(1) B. Picture(2) C. Picture(3) D. Picture(4)28. According to the passage, you should not swim alone because_. A. the water is too cold B. your parents would not be happy C. something in the water might attack D. you might drownCWe often hear people talking about a generation gap (代沟). The name is new, but the idea is old. Young people and their parents dont understand each other. The world has always kept changing. During the second century after Christ a wise man said, “Bury me on my face because in a little while everything will be turned upside down.” There has always been a gap between generations, but more people talk about it now. Old Mr. Ellis thinks he understands what has happened. “When I was a boy, I thought the world was a beautiful place. My life was very pleasant. But when I was older, I learned about people who were treated badly, people who didnt have enough to eat. I wanted to help them, and I married a girl who wanted to help them, too. We went to meetings and talked a lot, but it didnt seem to make much difference. ” “Our children grew up in a world at war. They didnt know when the fighting would stop. They wanted their children to have nice clothes and toys. They didnt want to think about the future. They thought nothing could be done about it.” “Now I have grandchildren, and they have their own ideas. They are trying to make the world better. They are trying to help other people. Theyre making people listen to them. I am proud of their generation.”29.

Common.DThe Worlds Largest InsectThis giant insect can be used as a toy.A child ties one end of a string to a stick and the other end around the neck of an insect. Holding the stick, the child lets the insect go. With a loud whirring sound, the insect takes off, pulling the string in a large curve over the childs head. The child laughs as the stick jumps around. The child is African, and the toy is the African Goliath beetle, the largest insect in the world.The Goliath is a true insect because it has six legs and a body that is divided into three parts. Like all beetles, it has two pairs of wings. The front pair are thick and stiff and protect the back pair, which are soft. It is these soft back wings that make the beetle fly forward. They also cause the loud whirring sound the beetle makes when it flies. To steer, the beetle twists and turns its legs the same way you steer a bike by turning its front wheel.African children often use the Goliath beetle as a toy. Although it is over 15 centimeters long, it is quite harmless.33. The African Goliath beetle is _.
