Bike-sharing has swept across China,with an increasing number of people choosing bike riding instead of driving.The bike that the service company provides has GPS or Bluetooth on it.And those bikes can be easily unlocked with a smart phone and left anywhere in public.Bike-sharing allows people to borrow a bike from one place and return it at another place easily.

In some cities,we can see more and more people riding this kind of sharing bikes.It’s very convenient to use the bikes if you have a smart phone.First,you have to download such an APP on your smart phone.Then what you need to do is find a nearest bike through the APP,scan the QR code (二维码) on the bike or connect your phone with the bike over a Bluetooth wireless connection.You will find the bike can be unlocked itself.

Then you can enjoy your trip.What’s more,the greatest advantage of bike-sharing is that you can easily find one and never worry about where to park it.The cost of riding depends on the time that you spend.Normally,every hour you ride,you need to pay one or two yuan.It doesn’t cost so much,does it?

At the same time,some people park the bikes in their own homes.Besides,some people don’t value the bikes.Now service companies are trying to solve the problem like being stolen.

Technology and science have changed our social lifestyles.We have to say bike-sharing brings us more convenience without doubt.And we also hope that people can not only enjoy it but also put it to good use.

China is a land of bicycles.At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country.Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle.Millions of them,all black.Cars were rare.Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year,I’ve found the opposite is true.There are millions of cars.However,people still use their bicycles to get around.For many,it’s the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.Bicycles also come in different colors—silver,green,red,blue,yellow,whatever you want.

It’s fun watching people biking.They rush quickly through crossroads,move skillfully through traffic,and ride even on sidewalks (人行道).Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can’t provide.Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture,I decided to buy a bicycle.Great weather accompanied my great buy.I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and headed towards home.

My first ride home was orderly (守秩序的).To be safe,I stayed with a “pack” of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times.I didn’t want to get hit.So I took the ride carefully.

Crossing the streets was the biggest problem.It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States.The streets here were wide,so crossing took time,skill and a little bit of luck.

I finally made it home.The feeling on the bicycle was amazing.The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful.I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people.Biking made me feel alive.

【语篇解读】本文为记叙文。中国在过去是自行车的王国,而现在仍然有很多人喜欢骑自行车出行,因为这种交通方式方便、省钱。为了融入这种文化,“我”也买了一辆自行车。但是在回家途中,发现骑车过街是最大的问题,需要时间、技巧和一点儿运气。但是骑行经历让“我”觉得很愉快、很有趣。

答案与解析

【语篇解读】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了JaneGoodall的生平以及贡献。

1.animals　考查名词单复数。句意:她总是梦想与野生动物一起工作。“野生动物”是复数意义,用名词复数,所以填animals。

2.togo　考查非谓语动词。句意:当她十一岁的时候,她决定要去非洲和动物一起生活,写关于动物的文章。want后接不定式作宾语。所以填togo。

3.really　考查词性转换。句意:如果你真的想要做一些事情,你要努力工作,抓住机会,永不放弃,你会找到方法的。该空修饰动词want,所以填副词really。

4.came　考查谓语动词。句意:机会终于来了。描述发生在过去的事情,用一般过去时,所以填came。

5.a　考查冠词。句意:Jane去当了一个女服务员来挣钱,直到她有足够的钱去那里旅游。泛指“一个女服务员”,waitress的首字母发音是辅音,用不定冠词a,所以填a。

6.living　考查非谓语动词。句意:后来他请她研究一群生活在坦桑尼亚湖边的黑猩猩。“　　　(live)byalakeinTanzania”作定语,修饰chimpanzees。“黑猩猩”和“生活”之间是主动关系,用现在分词作定语,所以填living。 

7.in　考查介词。句意:Jane花了许多年研究非洲这个地区的黑猩猩。表示“在这个地方”,用介词in。

8.and　考查连词。句意:它们很害羞,当她走近时就会逃跑。此空连接并列的wereveryshy和wouldrunaway。

9.their　考查代词。句意:随着时间的推移,她慢慢获得了它们的信任。文中表示“它们的”,所以填their。

10.surprising　考查词形转换。句意:几周后,她有了一个更惊人的发现。该空修饰名词discovery,用形容词,v.-ing修饰物,v.-ed修饰人,所以填surprising。
