A young man was going to finish school. For a long time he was looking forward to getting a beautiful sports car. He knew his father could well afford it, so he told him all he wanted.
Then on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful gift box. To his surprise, the young man opened the box and found a lovely Bible（圣经）with his name on it. Angrily, he said to his father “With all your money you give me a Bible?” He then rushed out of the house, leaving the Bible.
Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family. He thought he should go to see his father. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make arrangements（安排）, he received a phone telling him his father had passed away. He had to come home immediately and take care of the things that his father left him.
When he began to search through his father's important papers, he saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. He opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading, a car key with a tag（标牌） dropped from the back of the Bible. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words “PAID IN FULL”. Sadness and regret filled his heart.

　　If you visit London nowadays , you'll see a lot of buses and cars on the road , you'll also see a lot of bikes because nowadaysmore and more people travel by bike.

　　There are a lot of reasons for this. First, it's very cheap to use a bike, and it's quick too. You often wait for a bus for half an hour. When the bus comes, there are so many other buses and cars on the roads that the bus moves very slowly. The underground train is quick but very expensive and often crowded.

　　I travelled to work by bus for about four years. I often arrived at work late, and tired. Then one day, about two years ago, a colleague (同事)said , “I go to work by bike , why don't we travel together?”

　　“Because my bike's old,”I answered, “and there are so many buses and cars on the road. I'll feel frightened …”“You needn't feel frightened! ”said my friend, “If you follow me and we ride slowly, you'll be fine. ”

　　Although we went slowly, we arrived at work quickly. The bus ride took forty minutes and the bike ride took half an hour!

　　The next day I bought myself a new bike. Now I don't feelafraid. I love cycling to work. I take a different road every day. I arrive at work very quickly. I've got a little more money now, and very important, I feel fit and well.

　　Many people think in the same way as I do. That's why you see a lot of bikes on the road. Who knows, perhaps in the future we'll have roads for bicycles only. I hope so!
