Two Wheels and A Heart

In the town of Whitesburg, Kentucky, Mick Polly, who lives with his teenage daughter Carolina in a white house,     1    (know) as the bike man. Over the past five years, Mick has built hundreds of bicycles for needy kids.

One day in 2011, a 13-year-old boy with a broken bike walked by Mick’s house. “I was working in my garage, and he asked     2     I could fix it,” says Mick, now 53.

The boy left his bike, which had a broken bracket, with Mick, who asked friends on Facebook if they had the missing part. The town’s former police chief saw the post and donated two used bicycles. Mick took parts from each to engineer a new set of wheels for the boy.

Soon after，Mick, who owns an inflatable-toys (充气娃娃) business，repaired a bike for the boy’s brother and assembled     3     for his sister. Word spread, and within the year, he had fixed up dozens of bikes for local kids     4     parents couldn’t afford to buy new ones.

“People were dropping off bikes day and night,” says Mick.

Mick stores the bikes and bike parts in his garage. “I take off the good tires or the handlebars or the seat and use them,” he says.

Till now, the bike man     5     (repair) hundreds of cycles and given away nearly 700 newly     6    (construct) bikes. They are free, but the kids must agree to two things: They have got to “mind whoever’s raising them” and they’ve got to try hard in school.

If a kid’s grades are low, Mick requires a teacher’s note       7     (say) that “you are doing your       8     (good),” Mick says.

A ban on distracted walking

You can‘t walk down the street without passing so-called “smart-phone zombies (僵尸)”.

They are too absorbed in their screen    1    (watch) where they are going. Almost four in ten people admit having suffered a technology-related small accident     2     they pay more attention to their electronic device than to the pavement.

Now the city of Honolulu, Hawaii, has decided it’s time to take immediate action and make it illegal to cross the road while using a mobile phone. Those     3     (catch) using phones, tablets or other electronic devices at crossing points could face a fine of up to$ 100.

Honolulu is the first major U. S. city to ban     4     is called “distracted walking”. It comes after a study found there     5     (be) more than 11,000 injuries in the United States resulting from phone-related distraction while walking in the past few years.

To explain the decision, mayor Kirk Caldwell said, “We hold the unfortunate honor of being a major city     6     more pedestrians are hit in crosswalks than almost any other city in the country.”

Under the fine systems     7     breaks this law for the first time will get a fine of $15 to $35. People breaking the law for a second or third time will get a $99 fine.

The law, which is called the Distracted Walking Law, does permit an exception. Pedestrians     8     use such devices in the street to call emergency services and rescue workers, such as firefighters and police officers.

If you still want to text while walking, you could avoid     9     (fine) in Honolulu by using a voice-controlled digital assistant such as Siri or Google Assistant. Or you could just wait     10     you are again, safely, off the street.

I’d like to share with you what has happened to the transportation in our city.

Firstly, great changes have been taken place to the transportation inside the city, which makes it convenient for citizens to get around. Some narrowly streets have been broadened, but there are less traffic jams. Secondly, transportation to other cities had also improved. Several highways are now on construction. Two high-speed railways connected our city to the national high-speed railway web is close to completion. At that time, the travel time to Beijing will be reduced to three hour. What deserves to be mentioned is that a airport has been in use for several years, making your city more and more popular.

5 . From quiet paths by a stream in a forest to busy roads running through a city, people have created various forms of routes in different places. These now exist all around us, and their use is imperative for societies. These routes have enabled people to move, transport things, and send information from one place to another quickly and safely. Throughout history, they have been important in our daily lives.

Early routes were often formed naturally on land. They gradually developed over long periods of time while people traveled them on foot or horseback. A significant turning point in their history arrived when the first wheeled carts appeared in ancient times. Once this happened, people recognized the importance of well-maintained routes. Therefore, towns, cities, and entire countries improved them. As a result, life became more convenient, communities grew, economies evolved, and cultures expanded.

People have established routes on water, too. Rivers and canals have served as effective routes for people to move around and carry things. For instance, in the old, Japanese city of Edo, water routes were used for the transportation of agricultural products, seafood, and wood. People have also opened routes across the sea. The seaways were critical for the navigation of ships, particularly in the days when they moved mainly by wind power. Using these sea routes, people could travel great distances, and go to places they had not previously been able to reach.

People have gone on to open routes in the sky as well. Since the invention of the airplane, they have made it possible to travel long distances easily. Eventually, people became able to travel safely and comfortably high in the sky, and going vast distances only took a small amount of time.

Today, we have a new type of route, the Internet. By using this worldwide route, people can easily obtain information that once was available mainly from books and face-to-face communication. They can also instantly send messages to large numbers of people all at once.

As long as there have been people, there have been routes to connect them. Currently unknown routes will surely take us even further in the future.
