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 l. 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 neighborhood. 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(折疊) bikes work well for people who take 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.

Many of us feel uneasy when someone stands too close to us, talks to us too loudly or makes eye contact (接觸) with us for too long. But have you ever wondered why those things make you uncomfortable?

It’s all about personal space, which means not only an imaginary space around the body, but also the space around all the senses. People feel that their space is being violated (侵犯) when they meet with an unwelcome sound, smell or look. This is probably why a man on a crowded bus shouting into his mobile phone or a woman next to you putting on strong perfume (香水) makes you feel angry.

Whether people have had a stronger wish to protect their personal space in recent times is hard to say. Yet studies of airlines show that people have a strong desire (渴望) to have space to themselves. In a survey by TripAdvisor, a travel website, people said that if they had to pay more for some extra service, they would rather have larger seats than extra food.

Although people may need their personal space, some hardly realize it. For example, people on a bus who hold newspapers in front of their faces to read in fact keep a distance from strangers.

Go and watch a library table. You will notice that one of the corner seats will usually be taken first, because they are the farthest away. What if someone sits opposite to you? Maybe you will pile up books as if to make a wall.

Preferences (偏好) for personal space are different from culture to culture. Scientists have found that Americans generally prefer more personal space than people from other cultures. In Latin (拉丁人的) cultures, however, people are more comfortable standing close to each other.

1.The writer mainly __________ in this article.

A. tells us how to achieve personal space

B. explains why people need personal space

C. introduces some knowledge about personal space

D. argues for the importance of keeping personal space

2. What can we know from the survey by TripAdvisor?

A. People need a smaller personal space in recent times than before.

B. People have a strong desire for personal space in recent times.

C. There are not enough seats on the plane to meet people’s needs.

D. Food service is better provided than seats on the plane.

3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The space around the body is more needed than that around all the senses.

B. If you hold newspapers on the bus, your personal space won’t be violated.

C. People usually choose the corner seats first in a library for personal space.

D. Different cultures share the same preferences for personal space.

閱讀判斷。

An owl(貓頭鷹) is a bird with very large eyes. Those eyes make the owl look clever. The owl can not move its eyes freely as people can. It can only look straight ahead (朝前). If it wants to look at both sides, it must turn its neck. Owls see better at night than during the day. At night they look for food. They eat mice and insects(昆蟲). Owls make a strange noise because the owls sleep most of the day. They usually give their cries at night. The cry sounds like “ Whoo ! Whoo !”. This strange sound sometimes frightens(嚇唬) people at night.

判斷正誤,正確的寫(T),錯(cuò)誤的寫(F)。

1.An owl looks clever because it can look straight ahead.

2.An owl looks for food at night because it sees better at night than during the day.

3.An owl lives on all kinds of birds.

4.The cry of an owl is frightening.

5.Man must not kill owls because they are helpful to people
