　　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．

　　Health Benefits of Bicycling：

　　●It helps to prevent heart diseases．

　　●Bicycling helps to control your weight．

　　A 15-minute bike ride to and from work three times a week burns off five kilos of fat in a year．

　　●Bicycling can improve your mood(心情)．

　　Exercise like bicycling has been shown to make people feel better, more relaxed and self-confident．

　　You will have a lot of reading to do in this grade this year．You can do more of it in less time if you learn to read rapidly．

　　Perhaps you have been told about some habits (習(xí)慣) which keep a person from reading fast and have been strongly asked to break those habits which you might have．

　　Do you still have any of these bad habits?Check yourself by answering“yes”or“no”to these questions．

　　When my family moved to America from a small village in Guangdong，China,we brought not only our luggage,but also our village rules,customs and culture.One of the rules is that young people should always respect(尊敬)elders.Unluckily,this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.

　　I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant.One time,when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple,the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly.I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly.As soon as I said that,her face showed great displeasure.My manager,who happened to hear what I said,took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive(敏感的)Americans are and how they dislike the description“old”.I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife.After the couple heard my reason,they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences.so they laughed and were no longer angry.

　　In my village in China,people are proud of being old.Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty,and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience.Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.

　　However,in the United States,people think“growing old”is a problem since“old”shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well.Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercise or jogging,and women put on makeup,hoping to look young.When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly,they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young.I had told them something they didn't want to hear.

　　After that,I changed the way I had been with older people.It is not that I don't respect them any more;I still respect them,but now I don't show my feelings through words.
