         Bicycles are very popular around the world today. People ride their bicycles for exercise and enjoyment.
    In some places,people use a bicycle to get to work. In other places,bicycle riding is a very popular exercise
    to people who live in cities. But who invented the first bicycle? In 1791, a Frenchman named Comte de
    Sovran invented and owned the first bicycle. Mrs. Sovran rode (骑) the bicycle in Paris. The handles (把手)
    and the seat were wooden. This bicycle was very difficult to move. A rider even had to pick up the front
    wheel to change direction. Finally, the bicycle had no brakes for stopping or pedals for the feet! Riding a
    bicycle was a great risk.
         In 1817, a German named Baronvon Drais de Sauer burn made the first bicycle better. The seat became
    more comfortable. The wheel could now change direction. His ride in the forest took only one hour instead
    of three hours on foot, which surprised people at that time.
          Sauer burn brought this kind of bicycle from Germany to France. Then Denis Johnson, an Englishman,
    made a bicycle for women. It had space for their dresses to hang down. But these bicycles still had no brakes
    or pedals,and riders often got hurt. These bicycles and the people who rode them were not very popular.
         It took another forty-five years for the bicycle to become popular. More than 100 years later, bicycle riding
    is more popular than ever. In fact, in India and China, there are still many more bicycles than ears.
    1. Which of the following best describes the first bicycle?
    A. Very popular.
    B. Easy to carry.
    C. Ugly-looking.
    D. Difficult to ride.
    2. Why was it a risk to ride the first bicycle?
    A. Because it had no pedals for the feet.
    B. Because it was difficult to control (控制).
    C. Because people would laugh at you.
    D. Because handles and the seat were wooden.
    3. Which of the following was not improved by Sauer burn to the first bicycle?
    A. Brakes were added to it.
    B. It was made to go faster.
    C. The wheel could now change direction.
    D. The seat was made more comfortable.
    4. What's the major difference between Denis Johnson's bicycle and the earlier ones?
    A. It was more comfortable.
    B. It was faster and safer.
    C. It had space for the rider's dress.
    D. It had metal handles and seat.
    5. The best title (题目) for the passage would be _______.
    A. Bicycles Around the World
    B. How to Ride a Bicycle
    C. The Greatest Invention
    D. The First Bicycle

    　　Wives, children and parents left behind in the countryside by migrant workers need special assistance, a member of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference said yesterday．

    　　Adult males moving to work in cities, is causing a challenge to the traditional function of bringing up children and supporting the elderly, said Shen Shuji, who is also an official with the All-China Women’s Federation．

    　　Shen recommended certain measures, including a special policy to guarantee educational opportunities for such children, accelerating(加速)the establishment of pension(养老金)and medical care systems in rural areas, and encouraging enterprises and non-governmental organizations to help such families．

    　　The rights and welfare of migrant workers themselves have called much attention in recent years．The government has made policies to protect their rights．

    　　The number of children aged between 6 and 16 in this situation is more than 20 million nationwide, accounting for more than half of the country’s total．Some of the children have both their parents in cities and have to be taken care of by grandparents or other family relatives．

    　　Without enough care from parents, many of them become problem children, Shen said．Wives left at home by their husband have to face hard work, loneliness and a lack of a sense of security．In many cases long-term separation ends up with divorce．

    　　There is still no pension system in China’s countryside．Traditionally, the elderly in rural areas are supported by their children with low incomes．

    　　But the exodus of their children has left many old people in a difficult situation．They have to continue to work in farms while taking care of their grandchildren, Shen said．

    　　The country should gradually scrap(消除)the decades-old bi-polar system separating rural and urban areas, which prevent farmers from enjoying the equal rights．
