Bicycle Coinmuting

I may not be a movie star, best-selling author, or millionaire when I grow up. but one thing I

will be known for, at least locally, is commuting by bicycle: Its sad to see how few people do-cven though many could・ Lots of people eagerly campaign for the reduction of greenhouse gases, but by driving cars, theyYe still contributing to the problem.

those teenagers who wear shirts that say HHelp save the world: Recycle.M Actually, my interest in exercise, health. and fitness led me to cycling・

Cycling can help you lose weight, improve your health. and prevent many diseases・ Cycling also

carries a relatively low chance of injury.

it, you might be shocked by the cost. But if you think about the increasingly high gas prices, you will know for sure that you can save a significant amount each year by not driving a car.

You might think that you don't have time for bicycle commuting. Actually, you probably do. You

5

greed and 43 (jealous).

While we were in caves, we fought for food. While we were living on the ice, we fought for 44

(warm), clothing, and food. Now, we are 45 (fight) over land. Why do we fight for land that was never in our 46 (possess)? Wars, big or small take place every day. Earth is a single nation. All the land masses on it belong to the planet, not to us. Everyone is the same, regardless of race, gender, or religion. We all deserve to be 47 (treat) equally. We are all also unique, but that doesn't make us any 48 (little) human than the next person.

If we can start by 49 (pay) a compliment (赞美)to a different person each day, our world will be

50 (friendly) to live in. If we at least help one person in need and let room for love to grow in our hearts, the world will be a better place・
