Today some people call Amsterdam the“City of Bicycles”because it is a city which is flat and convenient(方便的)for bicycles.
In the 1960s, a group of cycling fans had an i 46 . They believed that it would be better for everybody if o 47 bicycles were allowed in the city centre. They were hopeful that this would help to save energy, reduce pollution and provide free public transport. The group p 48 hundreds of bicycles white and placed them in public places around Amsterdam for people to use. A 49 was allowed to take them and use them for short journeys, whether he was a local or a foreigner. Wherever someone finished a journey, they would l 50 the bike there for someone else to use. The problem was that it didn’t work –t 51 took all the bicycles within weeks!
H 52 , more than thirty years later，the“white bike”is back in town---this time with a computer chip(芯片)to r 53 its every move! There is a 54 less traffic in central Amsterdam. Thanks to the good ideas of lots of people, like the cycling fans in the 1960s, many people around the world have been enjoying city centre streets w 55 cars for many years.

“If you want to see a thing well, reach out and touch it!”
That may seem a strange thing to say. But touching things can help you to see them better. Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth and cool the ball is. You can tell how heavy the glass it. When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it.
With your skin, you can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins in your pockets. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too. You can even feel sounds against your skin. Have you wanted to know why some people like very loud music? They must like to feel the sounds of music.
All children soon learn what “Don’t touch!” means. They hear it often. Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up. In shops, we touch things we might buy: food, clothes. To see something well, we have to touch it.
The bottom of our feet can feel things, too. You know this when you walk on warm sand, cool grass or a hard floor. All feel different under your feet.
There are ways of learning to see well by feeling. One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. You are too used to them.
Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have things for visitors to touch. Their signs say, “Do touch!” there you can feel everything on show.
If you want to see better, reach out and touch. Then you will really see.

Dolphins are not fish. They are mammals (哺乳动物).They live in groups and speak to each other in their own language. But they are quite different from almost all land animals. Their brain(大脑)is as big as men's and they live a long life at least 20 or 30 years.
Like some animals, dolphins use sounds to help them find their way around. They also use these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food. They do not use their ears to receive sounds,but use the jaw--the lower part of the mouth.
It is strange that dolphins are friendly to men, and for thousands of years, there are many stories about dolphins and men. In the 19th century, in a dangerous part of the sea near New Zealand,there was a dolphin. The seamen liked him very much and gave him a very good name, Jack. From 1871 to 1903 ,Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way. In 1903 a passenger on a boat with the name of The Penguin shot and hurt Jack. Luckily the dolphin didn't die, and after a long time he was well again. He guided the ships through the area for nine more years, but he refused to help the boat of the Penguin.
Today, some people still kill dolphins, but many countries in the world now protect them. In these places, people are not allowed to kill them.
【小题1】The word "jaw" means_________in Chinese.
| A．下颚 | B．嘴巴 | C．嘴唇 | D．鼻子 |
| A．They use their noses to smell the way. |
| B．They use their ears to hear the sounds. |
| C．They use their eyes to see the way. |
| D．They use sounds to find the way. |
| A．The writer. | B．A dolphin. | C．A seaman. | D．The passenger. |
| A．32 years | B．9 years | C．41 years | D．23 years |
| A．Dolphins are not fish. |
| B．Dolphins don't live in groups. |
| C．Dolphins are kind and friendly to people. |
