If yu want t stay in shape, but dn't have the time t g t the gym, the Mbile Gym is a gd slutin. It's basically a large bus filled with the latest fitness equipment. Yu can find everything yu need fr a cmplete wrkut, and here's the best part—yu dn't need t g t the gym, and the gym cmes t yu!
The Mbile Gym was the idea f Adam Zickerman, funder f Infrm Fitness, a ppular chain f gyms acrss the United States. It hit him when he rdered lunch frm a fd truck ne afternn. S why nt put a gym n a truck?
Zickerman experimented with a few designs and then invested $60, 000 n making adaptatins and fixing machines. He didn't really need an advertising budget as the bus advertised itself. Carle Pallmeyer, fr instance, fund herself driving behind the Mbile Gym ne day. At first she thught it was a regular bus with ads fr a gym. But then she realized the bus itself was a gym, s she bked wrkut sessins fr her entire family. “We are all busy, but we knw the bus is cming and make sure we are hme at 4:30 fr the wrkuts, ”she said. “Yu frget yu're n a bus because the wrkuts are tightly scheduled. ”

Imagine taking a flying taxi t the airprt, r crssing crwded city streets at rush hur, getting where yu want t g far faster than yu culd in a car. Believe it r nt, yu might be able t d these things in an electric air taxi sner than yu think.
An air taxi is a small aircraft—smething like a mix between a helicpter (直升飞机)and a drne (无人机)—that can carry peple frm place t place. Air taxis dn't need a lng runway like planes d. They can g straight up and dwn, like a helicpter.
A cmpany called Jby has been making and testing flying taxis since 2017. By 2025, Jby hpes t start carrying passengers fr mney. They've teamed up with Delta Air Lines t create a prgram t fly peple frm their hmes t the airprt. Jby als expects their air taxis t prvide a ride-sharing service. Just like yu might rder a car t pick yu up, yu culd use an app t rder an air taxi. Jby's air taxis will be flwn by a pilt, and can carry fur ther passengers. They can fly as fast as 200 KPH and g arund 100 miles befre the electric batteries need t be recharged.
Jby claims their taxis are bth quieter and cheaper than helicpters. The cmpany expects t charge abut S3 a mile at first. But ver time, they hpe t bring the price dwn t less than $1 per mile.
Exciting as the idea f flying taxis is, sme peple have cncerns abut them. The taxis may be quieter than helicpters, but they'll still add nise and traffic t ur skies and endanger public safety when passengers are flying thrugh the air.
Still, it seems likely that air taxis will be part f the future f travel. The U. S. gvernment says, “We culd see air taxis in the skies by 2024 r 2025. ”
7. What are the main features f the air taxi?
A. Advanced but space-taking. B. Cnvenient and ecnmical.
C. Traditinal and expensive. D. Safe but energy-cnsuming.
8. Why are helicpters mentined in the text?
A. T give a guess. B. T present an argument.
C. T make a cmparisn. D. T intrduce a phenmenn.
9. What des paragraph 5 mainly tell us cncerning the flying taxi?
A. Its market risks. B. Its pssible weaknesses.
C. Its wide recgnitin. D. Its prmising future
10. What can be the best title fr the text?
A. Flying Taxis Are Starting t Take Off
B. Jby Has Already Mass-prduced Air Taxis
