题目列表(包括答案和解析)
A. “Better road design and training hold the key to cycle safety”, the new Transport Secretary said today as he pledged to restore Britain’s safety record. Patrick McLoughlin told Conservative Party Conference that while cycling was enjoying a post-Olympics boom, the number of casualties among cyclists was also rising. “But the number of accidents has gone up too. That means it needs better design and better education too.” Mr McLoughlin said in his first speech as Transport Secretary.
B. Cycling in the UK will become safer through “sheer weight of numbers,” the founder of one of the world’s leading cycle brands has said as he backed The Times’s Cyclesafe campaign. Simon Mottram, founder and chief executive of Rapha, has added his support to 40 cross-party MPs who have signed a letter urging David Cameron to use his speech at the Conservative Party Conference to promote measures to make the streets safer for cyclists.
C. Commuters who cycle to work face an increased danger as the casualty toll during peak hours rose by 10 percent last year. The rate at which cyclists were killed or seriously injured rose sharply last year, official figures showed yesterday.
D. In future decades, Londoners will look back on the way cyclists jostled with buses and lorries on major roads as an absurd anachronism. Some risks are unavoidable. But other risks survive only because we are too slow to embrace bold solutions. That is the message from designers who are proposing an ambitious plan to create cycle lanes suspended above London’s busiest streets. London is one of the most dangerous places in the world for cycling. “SkyCycle” would remedy that problem by attaching dedicated cycle paths to existing railway viaducts.
E. Money should be apportioned from the funding for major transport projects, such as the new Forth Crossing, to create a pot of cash for cycling, campaigners have told MSPs. Cycle groups have given warning that not enough money is being put into routes and promotion. They want the Scottish government to take a percentage of the funding allocated to key national projects and create an “active transport” fund to be distributed gradually.
F. We’d like you to tell us why you love cycling by sending a photo of yourself, a family member or friend with their bike and a note about why it is so brilliant. To take part, instagram your photo with the hashtag #ilovemybike or email it to us at ilovemybike@thetimes.co.uk. We’ll post the best pictures here ilovemybike.tumblr.com.

61.
If you are hiking through wild places,the possibility of getting lost or injured becomes very real.You should think about carefully whether or not you are wise to head out on your own.Taking a partner along can have many advantages,especially if that partner is an experienced hiker.As “two heads are better than one”,if you do get lost or run into difficulty,you’re much less likely to be panic if you have somebody with you to help solve the problem or even save your life.
62.
As a new hiker you should certainly follow clearly marked and well travelled routes.However,it won’t take you too long before you’re ready to take some more adventurous hiking and,at that point,there might be a lot of unknowns and you may need some help.For this reason you should always tell somebody where you’re going and when you will expect to return.
63.
It’s a good idea to always carry a basic survival kit (救生包) with you and your local hiking club will be able to give you excellent advice on the kinds of items you should take with you.The things we’re talking about here might include matches and a lighter,a first aid kit,a sharp knife and a flashlight.It’s also a good idea to have a map and compass with you and a fullycharged cell phone.
64.
Water is clearly necessary because you may dehydrate (脱水) even over a short period of time on a hot day.Natural water sources may look clean but they can make you sick quickly.You should remember,however,that water weighs about 8 pounds per gallon,so take enough but not too much.Also take along enough food with you.
65.
It’s all too easy when you get out into the wilderness to get carried away,with your own enthusiasm (热情) and try all kinds of things,but you will quickly realize it is stupid.Joining your local hiking club will allow you to get some advice and information on hiking,including such things as which are the best hiking boots to buy.
A.Organized sports help children form healthy habits
B.Organized sports help children keep fit
C.Group sports teach children to work hard to reach the goals
D.Organized sports help children build confidence and identity
E.Organized sports help children learn from teamwork
F.Children have become interested in organized sports
61._____________
There are a lot of benefits for children to take part in organized sports.Playing organized sports helps children get the exercise they need to stay healthy,and make sure that they have a strong and healthy body throughout their lives.Sports also help children develop and understand skills and strengths that they will need forever.
62. _____________
Children who play organized sports have an increased awareness (意识) of their bodies,and are less likely to do things that will harm them at an early age,such as smoking cigarettes,drinking,or taking drugs.Many sports programs also teach nutrition (营养学) to young children,giving them even more awareness of the things they should do and should not do to their bodies.
63. _____________
Participating in sports can help a child become more confident.As children practice and work to become better at any activity,their confidence level will increase.This newfound confidence will carry over into other things besides sports,including their studies and personal lives.Group activities such as organized sports help children identify with a particular group—their team,which is necessary to the personal and social development of a child.Children who do not feel they are accepted or belong anywhere often experience anxiety and a general lack of confidence.
64. _____________
Group sports teach children that in order to become good at something,they must work toward their goals.This is a very valuable lesson,one that they must carry with them into their adult lives.Sports also teach children that when they do not succeed—losing a game,for example—that they must deal with losing,and move on.Obviously,this is necessary,because as an adult,you must move on after any kind of loss,and work to prevent those things from happening again,whether it is on the field,in your work,or in your personal life.
65. _____________
Children who take part in these kinds of activities learn to communicate and work better with their team players and with adults.Teamwork is a valuable skill for children.Organized sports often are made up of kids who have all kinds of different social and economic backgrounds,which provide the opportunity to make new friends.
