   People all over the world ride bicycles. But there are many differences between China and other countries.

   Wearing helmets (头盔) 

   You may think helmets are useless. But you are wrong. In many places kids have to wear them when they ride bikes. In some places of the United States,it's against the law (违反法律) for kids under 16 to ride without helmets. Many people say that helmets are like seat belts (安全带) for bikes.

   Bike lanes (车道) 

   In China,bicycles have their own special lanes on the road. People can ride next to cars. In the USA. roads are only for cars. People don't ride their bikes to school or work. But this isn’t true everywhere in the West. In the Netherlands (荷兰) there are more bikes than people. The whole country has bicycle lanes. 

   Riding for fun 

   Do you ride your bike to school? In China this is very common. But in the USA. kids only ride their bikes for fun on the weekend. They regard bicycling as a sport. Many cities have special parks. People turn old railways (铁路) into bike roads. People can ride from town to town.(陕西省西安市庆安中学 2011 —2012 学年 八年级下学期期中考试英语试题)
