More and more people like bicycling and it is no surprise. It is fun, healthy and good for the environment. Maybe that’s why there are 1.4 billion bicycles and only 400 million cars on roads
worldwide today. Bikes can take you almost anywhere, and there is no oil cost!
Get on a bicycle and ride around your neighbourhood. You may discover something new all
around you. Stopping and getting off a bike is easier than stopping and getting out of your car. You can bike to work and benefit (受益) from the enjoyable exercise without polluting the environment. You don’t even have to ride all the way.
Folding (折叠) bikes work well for people who ride the train. Just fold the bike and take it with you. You can do the same on an airplane. A folding bike can be packed in a suitcase. You can also take a common bike with you when you fly. But be sure to look for information by getting on airline websites. Not all airlines are bicycle-friendly to travellers.

Dear Nick,
Do you like to shop on the Internet? I like to buy books online. The price is usually lower. When I want to know something about a book, I write an email to the online shop for an answer. I am shy. It is difficult for me to talk to the shopkeepers in real shops.
Sometimes online shops have pictures of the book. They can show you some pages of the book too. I think this is very helpful. I don’t like to read books in shops because the shopkeepers may come to talk to me. I don’t know what to say to them. I can shop at midnight if I want to. Real shops close at nine in the evening. Some people worry that the postman may lose or damage(破坏)the things they buy from online shops, but I don’t worry about that. I think it is hard to damage a book and my postman is very careful.
Some people say that shopping is good because you can go with your friends and look at many different things. They call it window shopping. I don’t have any friends and I don’t like to talk too much.— it makes me tired.
I am teaching my grandmother how to shop online. She cannot walk very far so it will make shopping easy for her if she shops online. My brother wants to learn how to do it too. He is very busy most of the time. When he has a little free time, he can shop online.
What do you think of online shopping?
Your friend,
Paul
Advantages(优势) | Disadvantages(不足) | |
Online shopping | *The things in online shops are usually 1. . *Online shops are always 2. *It is 3. for old women like Grandmother to shop online. *It is good for 4. people like my brother. | The 5. may lose or damage the things you buy from online shops. |
6. shopping | You can go with your 7.and look at many 8. things. | 9. to talk to the shopkeepers. Close at nine in the 10. |
