Many streets of Tokyo are very crowded, and most of the buildings are very tall and modern (现代的). But how could such an old city look so modern?

Today Tokyo is a very welcoming city. Many people come to visit Tokyo every day. The best way to go to the city from other parts of Japan is by train. Visitors from other countries can enjoy themselves a lot in Tokyo. They can learn Japanese culture and try Japanese food. There are lots of nice restaurants in Tokyo.

【推荐1】In September 2021, a group of five children in the Eixample area of a city in Spain, started a “bike bus” program (方案). They began riding their bikes to school with their parents on Friday.
The bike bus begins around 8:25 every Friday morning and lasts for about 25 minutes. The path it will follow is always posted (发布) online before that, so everyone knows where to wait to join. The group usually grows to hundreds of riders soon. There are several schools along the path. When students reach their school, they leave the “bus” and park their bikes. Instead of (而不是) only riding in bike lanes (车道), the bike bus takes over the whole street. With music playing and bike bell ringing, the program feels like a part. Being able to ride with a group of kids is a big part of the fun. Nine-year-old Maria Pitarch says, “The best part of the program is that we ride along and pick up my friends and we ride together.”
It was possible to ride to school in Eixample before, but it wasn’t really safe for kids. There were a few bike lanes, but there were also lots of cars. One of the main roads used by the program has about 20,000 cars and motorbikes every day. Because these are busy streets, the local police are helping stop traffic by riding in front of the group and behind it.
The program is supported by many parents. They say the program can help change ideas about how people can get around in the city. They also say that the program helps cut down on pollution.
1. Which is the right order about the program?a. Students wait for others and join them. b. Students park their bikes near their school.
c. Students share their path with others on the Internet.

【推荐3】Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
This is an old English saying (谚语). It means that we should go to bed early at night and get up early in the morning. If we do, we shall be healthy. We shall also be rich and clever.
Is this true? Perhaps it is. The body must have enough sleep. Children of your age need ten hours’ sleep every night. If you go to bed late, you can’t have enough sleep. Then you can’t think carefully and your homework will be wrong. You will not be wise and you may not become wealthy!
Some people go to bed late at night and get up late in the morning. This is not good for them. We should sleep at night when it is dark. The dark helps us sleep well. When the daylight comes, we should get up. This is the time for exercise. If the body is not used, it will become weak. Exercise keeps it strong.
Exercise helps the blood to move around inside the body. Blood takes nutrition to all parts of our bodies. The brains (大脑) in our heads also need blood. We think with our brains. If we keep our bodies healthy, and take exercise, we can think better!
Our bodies also need air to breathe (呼吸). Without air we will die. Get up early in the morning and we can have plenty of clean, fresh air. That will keep us healthy and happy.
