            While small may be beautiful, tall is just plain uncomfortable it seems, particularly when it comes to
    staying in hotels and eating in restaurants.
            The Tall Persons Club Great Britain (TPCGB), which was formed six months ago to campaign(发起运动) for the needs of the tall, has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants.Beds that are too small，
    shower heads that are too low, and restaurant tables with hardly any legroom all make life difficult for those of above average height, it says.
            But it is not just the extratall whose needs are not being met.The average height of the population
    has been increasing yet the standard size of beds, doorways, and chairs has remained unchanged.
            “The bedding industry says a bed should be six inches larger than the person using it, so even a

    “Sevenfoot beds would work fine.” 
            Similarly, restaurant tables can cause no end of problems.Small tables, which mean the longlegged

    阅读理解
         Phil White has just returned from an 18,000-mile, around-the-world bicycle trip. White had two
    reasons for making this epic journey. First of all, he wanted to use the trip to raise money for charity,
    which he did. He raised ~70,000 for the British charity, Oxfam. White's second reason for making the
    trip was to break the world record and become the fastest person to cycle around the world. He is still
    waiting to find out if he has broken the record or not.
        White set off from Trafalgar Square, in London, on 19th June 2004 and was back 299 days later. He
    spent more than l,300 hours in the saddle(车座)and destroyed four sets of tyres and three bike chains.
    He had the adventure of his life crossing Europe, the Middle East, India, Asia, Australia, New Zealand
    and the   Americas. Amazingly, he did all of this with absolutely no support team. No jeep carrying food,
    water and medicine. No doctor. Nothing! Just a bike and a very, very long road.
         The journey was lonely and desperate at times. He also had to fight his way across deserts, through
    jungles and over mountains. He cycled through heavy rains and temperatures of up to 45 degrees, all to
    help people in need. There were other dangers along the road. In Iran, he was chased by armed robbers
    and was lucky to escape with his life and the little money he had. The worst thing that happened to him
    was having to cycle into a headwind on a road that crosses the south of Australia. For 1,000 kilometres
    he battled against the wind that was constantly pushing him. This part of the trip was slow, hard work
    and depressing, but he made it in the end. Now Mr. White is back and intends to write a book about his
    adventures.
    1.  When Phil White returned from his trip, he________.
    A. broke the world record              
    B. collected money for Oxfam
    C. destroyed several bikes            
    D. travelled about 1,300 hours
    2. What does the word "epic" in Paragraph l most probably mean
    A. Very slow but exciting.                    
    B. Very long and difficult.
    C. Very smooth but tiring.                
    D. Very lonely and depressing.
    3. During his journey around the world, Phil White _______.
    A. fought heroically against robbers in Iran
    B. experienced the extremes of heat and cold
    C. managed to ride against the wind in Australia
    D. had a team of people who travelled with him
    4. Which of the following words can best describe Phil White?
    A. Imaginative.    
    B. Patriotic.  
    C. Modest.      
    D. Determined.
