Bicycle sharing systems are also known as yellow bicycle programs, white bicycle programs, public bikes, or free bikes. They are increasingly popular in Europe now. Paris has the world’s largest urban (城市的) cycle rental system.

This is a bike rental station in Paris. The workers are showing how to use a new self-service bike. They say that Paris will become “a green capital of bikes” and they plan to park 20,000 bicycles at 1,600 stations. Paris created this plan to reduce waste gas displacement (废气排气量).

At a rental station, you only have to put your credit card into the machine to rent a bike. It provides French, German, English and Chinese services. If you ride the bike for only 30 minutes to relax, you needn’t pay for it. A two-hour bike rent only costs you 4 euros.

These stations work for 24 hours every day, so a bike is rented for 10 to 14 times a day. In this way there are 200,000 people using bikes a day.

In the past few years, Paris has encouraged its people to ride bikes, but something unhappy has happened now and then. Some people break the traffic rules during rush hours. Some park their bikes everywhere. So how to park their bikes is a problem that Paris will face. But this project is still a helpful way to improve its traffic environment.

1.Bicycle rental system can help Paris become a ______.

A. fashion capital

B. sleepy city

C. green capital of bikes

D. green capital of stations

2.The machine at a bicycle rental system offers ______ language services.

A. two B. three C. four D. five

3.According to the passage, the problem that Paris will deal with is ______.

A. how to encourage its people to ride bikes

B. how to park their bikes

C. how to improve its traffic environment

D. how to obey the traffic rules

4.From the passage we can infer (推断) that the writer ______.

A. thinks bicycle rental systems are great

B. thinks Paris is a bicycle capital

C. doesn’t agree with the idea of bicycle

D. thinks bicycle rental systems are bad

A group of swans flew down to a beach where a crow(乌鸦) was jumping around. The crow watched them with disdain(鄙视).

“You have no flying skills at all!” he said to the swans.

“All you can do is to move your wings. Can you turn over in the air? No, that’s beyond you. Let’s have a flying competition. I’ll show you what real flying is!”

One of the swans, a strong young male, took up the challenge. The crow flew up and began to show his skills. He flew in circles, performed other flying tricks, and then came down and looked proudly at the swan.

Now it was the swan’s turn. He flew up, and began flying over the sea. The crow flew after him, making all kinds of comments (评价) about his flying. They flew on and on till they couldn’t see the land and there was nothing but water on all sides. The crow was making fewer and fewer comments. He was now so exhausted that he found it hard to stay in the air, and had to struggle to keep himself from falling into the water.

The swan pretended(假装) not to notice, and said, “Why do you keep touching the water, brother? Is that another trick?”

“No,” said the crow. He knew he had lost the competition.

“I’m in trouble because of my pride! If you don’t help me, I’ll lose my life…”

The swan took pity on him, and took him on his shoulders and flew back to the beach.

1.What’s the correct order of the following events?

a.The crow showed off its flying skills.

b.The swan felt pity for the crow and saved it.

c.The crow laughed at the swan’s flying.

d.The crow followed the swan and got into trouble.

A. e, c, d, a, b B. a, e, c, d, b C. c, e, a, d, b D. e, a, d, c, b

2.What does the underlined word “exhausted” in Paragraph 4 mean?

A. Tired. B. Angry. C. Frightened. D. Regretful.

3.Why did the crow keep touching the water?

A. It was showing another flying skill.

B. It was struggling to keep itself from falling into the water.

C. It was thirsty and wanted to drink some water.

D. It was enjoying itself by doing so.

4.What can we infer(推断) from the passage?

A. The crow didn’t know flying.

B. Flying skills were useless.

C. The swan saved the crow because they were good friends.

D. The swan was better at long-distance flying than the crow.
