1、阅读理解
As the coronavirus(冠状病毒) outbreak continues, many Americans are fearful of using public transportation. They are also looking for ways to get exercise without going to a gym. So, it may not be surprising that the pandemic(流行病) has led to a major increase in bicycle sales.
In the US, bicycles at big stores have sold out. And small bicycle stores cannot keep up with demand for "family-style" bicycles: the low-cost, easy-to-ride models. "The bicycle industry is seeing its biggest sales increase since the oil crisis of the 1970s," said Jay Townley, an industry expert. He compared the sale of bicycles to the rush to buy products like toilet paper at the start of the pandemic.
The rise in bicycle sales is not happening just in the US. Italy has created bicycle paths for the growing number of people who want to avoid public transportation. In London, city officials plan to ban cars from some central roads. Bike shop owners in Manila say demand is even stronger than what they see at Christmas time.
Of course, you can only buy a bicycle if you can find one. In the US, the shortages now mean it may take many months to get a bicycle. High demand is not the only reason for the shortage. Many bicycle factories were shut down to stop the spread of COVID-19. The increase in bicycle demand began in March as countries began to close down. In April, the sale of bicycles increased 200 percent in the US.
Joe Minutolo is the co-owner of Bar Harbor Bicycle Shop in Maine. He said he hoped the increased sales meant a change in the way people think about transportation. "People are having a chance to rethink things," he said. "Maybe well all learn something out of this, and something really good will happen."
1.What causes the increase in bicycle sales
A.Shortage of public transportation. B.Outbreak of the coronavirus.
C.People's desire to defeat disease. D.People's fear of natural disasters.
2.What change has the pandemic caused in Italy
A.More bikes are sold than at Christmas time. B."Family-style" bicycles are in great need.
C.Cars are banned from some central roads. D.New bicycle paths have been built.
3.What can we know from Paragraph 4
A.It's impossible to buy a bike. B.Bike factories were closed in April.
C.High demand for bikes began in March. D.It takes many months to produce a bike.
4.What is Joe Minutolo's attitude towards the increased sales of bicycles
A.Doubtful. B.Positive. C.Uncertain. D.Critical.

Dear Peter,
I am sorry to hear that you have gone back home on sick leave. How are you feeling now
I hope my good news for you will sweep away the shadow of disease. Last month, an English festival was held in our school, and our class performed a song which you taught us at the festival. As soon as we finished the song, all the audience gave us warm applause. If only you had been there.
We all miss you very much and wish you a quick and complete recovery.
Yours,
