There are a few tips that can make road cycling fun and safe for people of all experience levels. In the United States, riders should usually ride on the right hand side of the road, while they may ride on the left side of the road in other countries. Besides, if the traffic is heavy, cyclists may be required to let other cars pass first in some areas. If bikeways are available (可用的), use the bikeways and know how to do safely. Generally，all road cyelists are required to follow all traffic signs and rules, even if other cars are not present.
Before your cycling, make sure the bike helmet (头盔) fits according to the instructions. If the helmet is too large or too small, it can’t protect the cyclist’s head well. Protective eyewear (护目镜)is also a good idea and must fit so it doesn’t fall off while speeding downhill or cycling uphill. If there are windy conditions, protective eyewear can help prevent dirt (灰尘) from causing the discomfort of eyes which can be a danger to a rider.
In fact, it is also important for riders to learn how to brake (刹车). This is usually done by quickly shaking the front brake. A good tip is to practice using the front brake before heading out on the road. Besides, it is important to learn how to ride in a bike group. It is often taught in a professional training team.Finally, do not forget to plan and prepare for the bike route. For example, consider if road repairing is present on a given route. Besides，it may be more enjoyable to ride during times and on roads that do not have a heavy traffic. Meanwhile, consider whether a dog may be present；an angry dog may try to knock a cyclist over, and it may be best to find another route.

“I’m not going,“ replied Angela.
“Please, we’ll be late,” said her father.
“Good. I hope we’re a million years late and there will be no piano anymore. The people of the future will be smart. They’ll understand that humans are better off without the piano. They’ll understand me,“ Angela said angrily.
“Angela, if you don’t get in the car right now, I’ m going to forbid (禁止) you from using the computer.”
“For how long?”
“Until Christmas.”
Dad wasn’t joking. Angela got in the car. Her father dropped her off at the music school. He told her he would come and pick her up after an hour, and then left.
Angela feared to practice the piano, and her teacher, Mr. Poliakoff, made her nervous with his lisp (咬舌) and unclear instructions. Angela found his music boring and she was afraid of playing the wrong note or being scolded (训). She didn’t want to go to Mr. Poliakoff’s classroom. She planned to pass the hour in the sun, or under a tree.
When Angela was walking around the music school, she heard someone playing the piano differently from Mr. Poliakoff’s music. She followed the sound. It was coming from one of the classrooms. She looked through the glass window and saw it was Mrs. O’Hara. Feeling curious, Angela entered the classroom.
“Hello,” Mrs. O’Hara said to her. “Can I help you?”
“No,” said Angela. “I, uh, I just heard the music, and”
“Do you like the piano?”
“I hate the piano," said Angela.
The woman started to laugh. “Come on. It’s okay to be curious. Do you know anything about jazz (爵士乐)?”
Mrs. O’ Hara then introduced jazz music to her and played a piece for her. Angela was attracted by.Mrs.0’Hara’s-playing. It was like nothing she had ever heard before. Mrs. O’Hara noticed Angela’s interest and invited her to try playing something herself. Angela hesitated (犹豫), but Mrs.0’Hara was kind and encouraging. Angela played a simple piece of music with a smile on her face.

I love reading books,
Which are my best friends.
They are an important bridge to a new world,
Always helping me avoid getting puzzled.
They remove all troubles just like a sharp knife.
And bring happiness to me in daily life.
As for me a book is the angel’s sweetest kiss.

Have you ever let a piece of fruit grow moldy in your refrigerator, simply because you forgot it was there? Have you ever thrown away a can of soup because it was past the “best by” date stamped on the label? Did you ever wonder what happens to all of the produce in the supermarket that goes unsold, or what your favourite restaurant does with all of their leftovers at the end of the day?
In fact, nearly one-third of all food produced in the world is wasted for various reasons. With 40% of the food in the United States ends up in a landfill or is left to rot in the field. It’s hard to believe that, in a country where more than 50 million people face hunger every day, so much food could go uneaten. Yet, this is precisely what is happening—and we’re all partially to blame. Perfectly good food is being wasted at every level of the supply chain: on the farm, during delivery, at the store, and in our homes. In addition to the big cost, our food waste is also an economic and environmental problem.
Food waste is a bigger problem than many people realize. Although these numbers may seem overwhelming, you can help reduce this harmful practice by following the easy tips in this article. Every little bit helps!
Learn to preserve. Some food preservation techniques have been used for thousands of years, like pickling, a type of preservation method using vinegar, which may have been used as far back as 2,400 BC. Pickling, drying, canning, fermenting, freezing and curing are all methods you can use to make food last longer, thus reducing waste. Not only will these methods lower your carbon footprint, but they will save you money as well. What’s more, most preservation techniques are simple and can be fun. For example, canning will provide you with a delicious and long-lasting treat that even kids will enjoy.

It's a feeling we all get at some point or another. It’s the feeling of low self-confidence, a defeatist attitude and regret. Admitting to the feeling isn’t easy, and sometimes you may not even know it's affecting you, but no matter what the case, it has to be taken care of. To deal with it, you need to know how. These tips appear to be simple, but you need to think of how they apply to you.
Stop saying “I should have ...” It’s so important to learn from our past and recognize where we went wrong, but you will never be able to feel good about yourself if you’re constantly counting those mistakes. Perhaps you really messed up and lost your friends for certain reasons that were totally preventable. Now you’re feeling there’s a hole in your life because you know something is missing. Rather than dwelling on the reason why something happened and what could have been, find a way to make new friends and surround yourself with people who love you for who you are now.
Remember that there’s no such thing as “Perfect”. You’ll always be a work in progress, as will every single person on this earth. The key is to use that to your advantage. You may be learning a new language and feel you’re really getting the hang of it one day and the next you can’t remember a single thing about what you learned the day before. That’s okay. If you accept this truth and start clearing the chimney of negative thoughts such as “I’m not good enough” and “I shouldn't try again because I’ll fail”, you will feel better.
Stay hungry, stay foolish. Challenge yourself to take chances, to create and to explore who you are. This means not always taking yourself so seriously. You’ll find yourself stumbling upon some of the greatest discoveries in your life by accident rather than by design.
