In London, the traffic is very heavy. Sometimes a journey of a few kilometres can take more than an hour. So what's the best way to get across London For a very short journey, it's a good idea to walk. But what happens when you want to go further
The presenters (节目主持人) on a popular TV car programme did an experiment (尝试) to find out. They chose different ways to make the same 27-kilometre journey. One presenter went by bike. One went by car. Another chose the bus. And the last one travelled by boat up the River Thames. They all started at the same time and the same place in West London, but who got to City Airport in East London first The bike came first. In second place was the boat. The bus came third and the car was last.
The bike was quicker than all the other ways and the car was slower. The presenters weren't very happy with the result because they wanted the car to win. They made a joke (玩笑) and said the bike wasn't a real winner (获胜者) because it was more dangerous. But, of course, the bike is the real winner. ▲ It's cheaper than a bus and healthier for you than a car. It's also better for our cities because bikes don't pollute (污染) the air.
So next time you need to go into town, think before you and your parents get into the car: “Can we make this journey by bike ”

My grandpa and grandma are getting older now. They stopped performing about five years ago. But The Flying Maliceks are not getting smaller. We're getting bigger!

八、One possible version:
Last week we asked one hundred students about three ways of travelling. Here's what we got.
8 students chose to travel by plane. They think it is the fastest way. Of course, it has its disadvantage. Sometimes people have to wait for a long time at the airport because of bad weather. 20 students chose to take the train. They think it is more comfortable than taking a coach, but it is also more expensive. Of all the three ways, travelling by coach was the most popular. 72 students chose it. They think it is the cheapest but also the most crowded.
