Passage A （1’*5=5’）

West Town Bike is a group that organizes local bike clubs for teenagers. It is based in Chicago. Teens at West Town Bike say that they enjoy biking, but biking in this city sometimes seems dangerous. Recently, these students have suggested a lot of solutions in order to make roads safer for bikers.

David Harb, a senior at Lane Tech High School, has learned hand signals from his father since he was 6. These simple movements tell drivers if a biker plans to turn or stop. “They’re like a secret language between riders and drivers.” David explained. Now riding to school daily, he strongly believes this skill should be taught in classrooms. “Why not start bike safety clubs?” he suggested. “Schools could have weekly classes showing students

proper hand signals. No need for building new roads-just use your arms to stay safe.”

Christopher Garcia, a student from Lake View High School, has another idea. He thinks that the government should set up bike safety zones near busy crossroads. These zones could include clear markings and signs to guide bikers and warn drivers. “Drivers know they should slow down or stop when they see these signs.” Christopher explained. He even presented his design as an example. “If we add flashing lights and clear ‘Bike Zone’ signs at this busy crossroads near the school, students will pass through this area more safely.”

Jane Perez, a night rider from Lincoln High School, agrees it’s important for bikers to be noticed by drivers. Though her bike has three bright LED lights, many streets are still too dark and unsafe, “Many roads don’t have proper lighting.” she said. “We should add more bike-friendly streetlights, which can help drivers notice us from far away. This would be an efficient way to prevent accidents.”

12. What does Christopher suggest to make biking safer?
