【推荐1】Back to the time when a newspaper was the main way people got their news, a bike was the best way to make some money before or after school for a kid. Those days are gone，with newspapers delivered（递送）by car and print competing with digital subscriptions（订阅）But the ability to make some extra money still exists if you have a bike.
1.Bike Messenger
Biking up and down the hilly streets of San Francisco to deliver documents between businesses on a bike can be difficult, but according to Salary Expert, the average yearly salary for a bike messenger is $24,966, and the average hourly rate is $12.
2.Bike Tour Guide
If you’re an expert on where to find interesting places in your city, then leading tourists to the best restaurants and landmarks can be a fun way to make money outdoors on weekends or whenever you’re free.
3.Pedicab（三轮车）Driver
You can work for a pedicab company in a city full of tourists. The pay can be up to $500 on a busy night, says one driver. This seasonal job can be much more enjoyable than helping at a law firm.
4.Bicycle Mover
The Swedish company MoveByBike is only in Sweden, but you can start your own bike moving company. It uses bike trailers（拖车）to move furniture and other belongings for people who aren’t moving far. This can be convenient for people to move a few miles within a city. If you don’t have a bike trailer, you can make one yourself, though a large one for furniture may be too much work to do on your own.
A bike is a piece of transportation that can get you somewhere fast. Whatever service you provide on a bike, start by advertising it as a green alternative to other methods of getting something.

【推荐2】If you want to do your kids a favor, consider having them walk to school. Walking to school provides many benefits – improving academic performance, reducing anxiety, boosting spirits, better sleep, a sense of independence, having an opportunity to familiarize oneself with a neighborhood, to notice small details, to feel a sense of wonder at the surroundings. The list goes on.
Parental fears still exist, however. Parents are terrified of cars, of injury, of harsh weather, of encounters with strangers and wild animals. These fears prevent parents from letting their kids do something that's actually enormously beneficial to them, despite the fact that removing an opportunity to be active contributes to an increase in childhood obesity, which can have a greater negative impact on a child's life than the risk of being injured due to being active.
How do we go from being a society that does not encourage its children to walk independently to being one that does? Parents must face their own discomfort with letting go. Brussoni, an expert who researches children's outdoor and risky play, said "We want to move parents from focusing solely on protecting their child to building trust in their child’s abilities and strategies to support their child’s skills in navigating the streetscape."
Schools can play a role by encouraging children to walk to school. Brussoni offers additional suggestions: "They should promote a culture that walking to school is the norm, help educate parents on why this is important, and consider closing the streets around the school to cars before and after school."
Parents might do well to put themselves in their children's shoes. As adults, we know how good a morning walk feels to start off a day or to end one. Walking energizes us and cheers us up, and it can do the same for children. As we go through this pandemic that has shaken up all of our lives, it's a good time to practice new routines and establish new habits. Walking to school is a great place to start.
1. What can we infer about kids’ usual way of going to school?| A．They walk to school alone. | B．They are driven to school. |
| C．They ride bikes to school. | D．They are led to school by teachers. |
| A．Focus on their child’s safety. | B．Protect their child against injury. |
| C．Believe their child’s abilities. | D．Strike traffic rules into their child’s heart. |
