More and more people like bicycling and it is no surprise. It is fun, healthy and good for the environment. Maybe that’s 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 neighbourhood. You may discover something new all around you. Stopping and getting off a bike is easier than stopping and getting out of your car. You can bike to work and benefit (受益) from the enjoyable exercise without polluting the environment. You don’t even have to ride all the way.

Folding (折疊) 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 travellers.

Once there was a famine(饑荒). A rich cook sent for twenty of the poorest children in the town and said to them,"In this basket there is a piece of bread for e1. of you. Take it and come back to me every day at this hour for more."

In a hurry the h2. children got together around the basket, and fought over the bread because each wanted the l3. piece.At last they went away without t4. the good cook.Mary, a poorly-dressed girl, did not fight with the other children,but s5.quietly in distance(在遠(yuǎn)處).When the badly-behaved(行為惡劣的) children left,Mary took the smallest piece, which was all left in the basket.She kissed the c6. hand and went home.

The next day the children were as badly-behaved as before. Mary got a piece of bread almost half the size of the one she got on the f7. day. When she came home,her mother cut the bread open.Many new, shining pieces of silver(銀子) fell out of it.

Her mother was very worried,and said,"Take the money b8. to the cook at once.The silver must have fallen into the dough(面團(tuán))by mistake. Hurry up, Mary."

When the little girl gave the rich man her mother's message, he said, “It was no m9..I put the silver pieces into the smallest bread for you as a prize. Always be as satisfied and thankful as you now are. Go home now, and tell your mother that the money is y10..”
