I teach geography at UNLV three times per week. Last Monday, at the beginning of class, I cheerfully asked my students how their weekend had been. One young man said that his weekend had not been so good. He had his wisdom teeth removed. The young man then asked me why I always seemed to be so cheerful. “I choose to be cheerful.” I said. Then I told them a story.

In addition to teaching here at UNLV, I also teach out at the community college in Henderson, 17 miles down the freeway from where I live. One day I drove those 17 miles to Henderson. I exited the freeway and turned onto College Drive. I only had to drive another quarter mile down the road to the college. But just then my car died and wouldn’t start again. So I left my car there and marched down the road to the college.

As soon as I got there I called AAA (美國汽車協(xié)會(huì))and arranged for a tow truck (拖車) to meet me at my car after class. The secretary in the office asked me what had happened. “This is my lucky day.” I replied, smiling.

“Your car breaks down and today is your lucky day?” She was puzzled. “What do you mean?”

“My car could have broken down anywhere along the freeway but it didn’t.” I replied, “Instead, it broke down in the perfect place: off the freeway, within walking distance from here. I’m still able to teach my class, and I’ve been able to arrange for the tow truck to meet me after class.” The secretary’s eyes opened wide, and then she smiled. I smiled back and headed for class. So ended my story.

I scanned the sixty faces in my class at UNLV. Despite the early hour, no one seemed to be asleep. Somehow, my story had touched them. Or maybe it wasn’t the story at all. In fact, it had all started with a student’s observation that I was cheerful. An Indian wise man once said, “Who you are speaks louder to me than anything you can say.” I suppose it must be so.

1. Why did the author tell his students the story?

A. To share his lucky experience.

B. To make his class more lively.

C. To draw all students’ attention.

D. To encourage his students to be positive.

2. What happened to the author on his way to the community college?

A. He parked his car in a perfect place.

B. He called AAA for a tow truck to meet him.

C. He covered the last quarter mile on foot.

D. He drove off the freeway at a wrong exit.

3.By saying “it wasn’t the story at all”, the author means that_______.

A. His story is not convincing

B. He shouldn’t have told the story

C. His attitude to life has inspired the students

D. His story is not as interesting as expected

4.What can be concluded from the passage?

A. Easier said than done.

B. You are what you choose.

C. Behind bad luck comes good luck.

D. A good beginning makes a good ending.

The Netherlands on Monday introduced its first-ever intelligent bicycle, fitted with electronic devices to help bring down the high accident rate among elderly cyclists in the bicycle-mad country.

Developed for the government by the Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research (TNO), the intelligent bicycle, runs on electricity. A commercial-available bicycle is expected to be on the market in the next two years and should sell for between 1, 700 to 3, 200 euros per bicycle.

The devices on the bike are linked through an onboard computer with a vibrating (震動(dòng)的) warning system fitted in the bicycle's saddle and handlebars to warn cyclists of the coming danger.

The saddle vibrates when other cyclists approach from behind, while, the handlebars do the same when barriers appear ahead.

"Accidents often happen when cyclists look behind them or get a fright when they are passed at high speed," said Maurice Kwakkernaat, one of TNO's research scientists involved in the project. "The onboard system technology has already been at work in the car industry," he said.

''More and more elderly people are using a bicycle, not only for short distances, but also for longer distances," Dutch Environment and Infrastructure Minister Melanie Schultz van Haegen told AFP. "This type of bicycle is truly needed in the Netherlands because it will help us bring down the number of elderly people who are injured every year and allow them to continue to enjoy cycling," she said.

In the Netherlands, bicycles outnumber the population of 17 million by at least one million and there are some 25,000 km of bicycle path in the country. Those statistics are set to grow as more and more people take to two-wheeled transport, leading to an increased risk of injury.

Last year, 184 cyclists died in the country, of which 124, or 67%, were older than 65, according to the Central Statistics Office. The year before, 200 cyclists died, the majority of victims also being elderly.

The current model weighs 25 kilograms but researchers are working on making the onboard systems smaller.

1.The intelligent bicycle is aimed to ________.

A. protect the environment

B. help reduce traffic pressure

C. popularize the use of bicycles

D. improve safety for elderly cyclists

2. Which part of the intelligent bicycle will vibrate when another cyclist was suddendly

found ahead ?

A. The handlebars. B. The wheels.

C. The saddle. D. The onboard computer.

3.We can learn from the passage that ________.

A. the elderly ride bicycles wherever they go

B. the accident rate among elderly cyclists is high

C. the number of elderly cyclists is decreasing

D. the elderly are planning to give up cycling

4. Which is the best title for the passage?

A. A Test Bicycle B. Elderly Cyclists

C. A Smart Bicycle D. A Bicycle-mad Country
