Getting Around in Beijing

  Taxis

  Taxis are in the streets 24 hours a day.Simply raise your hand, and a taxi will appear in no time.They are usually red, and they display the price per kilometre on the window.You should check whether the cab has a business permit, and make sure you ask for a receipt.

  Buses and trolleybuses

  Public transport provides a cheap way to get around in Beijing.There are 20,000 buses and trolleybuses in Beijing, but they can get very crowded.It’s a good idea to avoid public transport during the rush hour(6∶30 a.m.~8∶00 a.m.and 5∶00 p.m.~6∶30 p.m.).Fares are cheap, starting at 1 yuan.Air-conditioned buses cost more.Buses numbered 1 to 100 are limited to travel within the city centre.Higher numbers have destinations in the suburbs.Tourists shouldn’t miss the 103 bus which offers one of the most impressive routes, past the Forbidden City and the White Pagoda in Beihai Park.If you get on a double-decker bus, make sure you sit upstairs.You’ll have a good view of the rapidly changing city.

  Most buses run from about 5∶00 a.m.to midnight.However, there is also a night bus service, provided by buses with a number in the 200s.

  Minibuses

  Minibuses with seats for 12 passengers offer an alternative to expensive taxis and crowded public transport in some areas.They run regular services and follow the same routes as large public buses.And in a minibus you always get a seat even in rush hours.

  Underground

  There are four underground lines in Beijing, and several lines are under construction.Trains are fast and convenient, but rush hours can be terrible.A oneway trip costs 3 yuan.Station names are marked in pinyin.The underground is open from 5∶00 a.m.to 11∶00 p.m.

  Pedicabs

  Tourists like these human-pedalled“tricycle taxis”, but they can be expensive.You should talk to the driver, and make sure you know the price before you begin the journey.For example, if it is per person, single or return.Tricycles are worth using if you want to explore the narrow alleys(hutong)of old Beijing.

Questions:

1.What’s the problem with buses?

2.What are the advantages of the underground?

3.What can you visit in a pedicab?

  Physically active children may be more likely to become active and healthy adults.In the United States, elementary and middle schools are advised to give students two and a half hours of physical activity a week.

  Yet many schools across the country have reduced their physical education programs.Criticism(批评)of the cuts has led in some places to efforts to give students more time for exercise, not less.

  A study reported that life expectancy(预期寿命)has fallen or is no longer in creasing in some parts of the United States.The situation is worst among poor people in the Southern States.Public health researchers say it is largely the result of increases in obesity(肥胖), smoking and high blood pressure.They also blame differences in health services around the country.

  A study found that only four percent of elementary schools provided daily physical education all year for all grades.This was true of eight percent of middle schools and two percent of high schools.The study also found that twenty-two percent of all schools did not require students to take any P.E.

  Charlene Burgeson is the executive director of the National Association for Sport Physical Education.She says one problem for P.E.teachers is that schools are under pressure to put more time into academic(普通文化课的)subjects.

  Also, parents may agree that children need exercise in school.Yet many parents still have bad memories of being chosen last for teams because teachers favored the good athletes in class.

  But experts say PE.classes have changed.They say the goal has moved away from competition and toward personal performance, as a way to build a lifetime of activity.These days, teachers often lead activities like weight training.

  Some parents like the idea of avoiding competitive sports in P.E.class.Yet others surely dislike that idea.In the end, schools may find themselves in a no-win situation.

(1)

[  ]

A.

B.

C.

(2)

Why do some American schools cut students’ exercise time?

[  ]

A.

They want their students to do well in studies.

B.

The health services in America are not good.

C.

There are not enough P.E.teachers.

D.

Some parents are against children taking exercise.

(3)

The underlined part“that idea”in the last paragraph refers to ________.

[  ]

A.

B.

building a lifetime of activity
