Bike-sharing is a great idea for short trips in the city. It can also help to keep the city clean and green.
A new report finds that shared bikes in China make people interested in riding bikes again. Now more and more Chinese people would like to choose shared bikes to take short trips. On the one hand, it is easy to find them on the streets and the heavy traffic (交通) won’t influence (影响) the riders too much. On the other hand, riding a bike is also a kind of exercise, so it is good for the rider’s health.
The report says that as soon as they appear, fewer and fewer people take short trips by car. Now not only young people who were born (出生) in the 1980s and 1990s love shared bikes, but also people over sixty do!
At weekends, the number of the riders in Shenzhen reaches the top of all cities in China. On weekdays, the number of people who use shared bikes to travel to work is going up in Shanghai.
Someone thinks that bike-sharing will help to improve the cities’ environment. It helps to solve the traffic problems. Also, it will help to make better use of space in cities. The most important thing is that it can make the city get less pollution.
So would you like to try to ride a shared bike to travel, too?
63. What’s the main idea of the second paragraph?
A. Why people choose shared bikes to take short trips. B. How people take short trips in China.
C. When people take short trips by bike in cities. D. Where people like to take short trips.
64. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refer to (指的是)?
A. Buses. B. Taxis. C. Cars. D. Shared bikes.
65. Which of the following is NOT bike-sharing’s advantage (优点) according to the text?
A. It is good for the environment. B. It helps solve the traffic problems.
C. It helps make good use of space in cities. D. It helps people make more money.
【答案】63. A 64. D 65. D

【65题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第五段“Someone thinks that bike-sharing will help to improve the cities’ environment. It helps to solve the traffic problems. Also, it will help to make better use of space in cities.”可知,有人认为共享单车将有助于改善城市环境。它有助于解决交通问题。同时,它也有助于更好地利用城市空间。选项D“It helps people make more money.”在文中没有依据,不属于文中提到的优点。故选D。

The start of a new school year can be exciting or scary for children. Planning a tradition for them can help them enjoy their school life.
Kristin Taylor wishes that her parents had recorded (记录) the times when she was little, so she does that for her kids. “I want to remember the times. Although they are ordinary, they will be good stories to tell as my kids grow up,” says Taylor, a mother of three.
Each year, she takes photos of her children in their school uniforms. “I don’t want to forget all the little times, and I want to know how much they’ve changed (变化) over the years,” she says.
For Natalie Thurmond’s family, the tradition starts on the evening before a new school year. “We have a big meal at home that night so that we can relax ourselves,” says Thurmond.
As a mom of two, Thurmond also takes photos of her children in front of their house every year. “I plan to give them a book of those photos when they finish their school life,” she says.
Traditions create (制造) memories (回忆). When kids are older and look back, they will remember those times.
70. Why does Taylor create the tradition for her children?
A. To tell them famous stories. B. To remember the times.
C. To help them with their studies. D. To give them a rich life.

Growing up in Jiangsu, Wang Li was afraid to show her face because she had a cleft lip (唇裂). Other kids didn’t like to play with her and laughed at her. She was very sad.
Wang Li’s parents were both factory workers. They wanted to help their daughter. But they didn’t have enough money to pay for the operation (手术). One day they learned about Smile Train. It works with hospitals to help people with cleft lips for free. They were really happy.
With the help of Smile Train, Wang Li had the operation in a hospital in Nanjing. And it was successful. “When I looked into the mirror after the operation, I saw a different person looking back at me—a smiling person,” said Wang Li. That was the first time she smiled. She jumped up and down.
The operation changed Wang Li’s life in many ways. She wasn’t afraid to show her face and went back to school. Now she lives a happy life with her family. She’s thankful to Smile Train.

Bike-sharing is a great idea for short trips in the city. It can also help to keep the city clean and green.
A new report finds that shared bikes in China make people interested in riding bikes again. Now more and more Chinese people would like to choose shared bikes to take short trips. On the one hand, it is easy to find them on the streets and the heavy traffic (交通) won’t influence (影响) the riders too much. On the other hand, riding a bike is also a kind of exercise, so it is good for the rider’s health.
The report says that as soon as they appear, fewer and fewer people take short trips by car. Now not only young people who were born (出生) in the 1980s and 1990s love shared bikes, but also people over sixty do!
At weekends, the number of the riders in Shenzhen reaches the top of all cities in China. On weekdays, the number of people who use shared bikes to travel to work is going up in Shanghai.
Someone thinks that bike-sharing will help to improve the cities’ environment. It helps to solve the traffic problems. Also, it will help to make better use of space in cities. The most important thing is that it can make the city get less pollution.
So would you like to try to ride a shared bike to travel, too?

The start of a new school year can be exciting or scary for children. Planning a tradition for them can help them enjoy their school life.
Kristin Taylor wishes that her parents had recorded (记录) the times when she was little, so she does that for her kids. “I want to remember the times. Although they are ordinary, they will be good stories to tell as my kids grow up,” says Taylor, a mother of three.
Each year, she takes photos of her children in their school uniforms. “I don’t want to forget all the little times, and I want to know how much they’ve changed (变化) over the years,” she says.
For Natalie Thurmond’s family, the tradition starts on the evening before a new school year. “We have a big meal at home that night so that we can relax ourselves,” says Thurmond.
As a mom of two, Thurmond also takes photos of her children in front of their house every year. “I plan to give them a book of those photos when they finish their school life,” she says.
