Once there was a piano player in a bar (酒吧). People came just to listen to him play the piano. But one night, a rich man asked him to sing a song.
“I don't sing，” said the man.
But the rich man told the waiter, “I feel bored to listen to the piano. I would like the player to sing a song. ”
The waiter shouted across the room, “Hey, friend! If you want to get your pay, sing a song！”
He did so even though he didn't think he could do it well. He never sang in public (当众) before. He sang for the very first time! Nobody had ever heard anyone sing so beautifully!

Yesterday my brother and I went to watch a soccer game. We watched our favorite teams(队), the Eagles and the Hawks.

Many overhead bridges (天桥) appear in Taiyuan these years. There are lots of cars on the road in some places and crossing the road is not safe (安全的). These bridges can make people cross roads safely. They are used in very much the same way as zebra crossings (斑马线).
The__overhead__bridges__are__more__useful,__though__people__have__to__climb__up__a__lot__of__steps__(台阶). When people use an overhead bridge, they do not hold up traffic (车辆). But when they cross a busy road using a zebra crossing, traffic is held up. This is why the government (政府) has built many overhead bridges to help people and keep traffic moving at the same time.
The government of Taiyuan spent a lot of money building these bridges. Some overhead bridges even have traffic lights on them. For their own safety, people should use them. Old people may find it a little difficult to climb up and down the steps, but it is still much safer than walking across the road with all the moving traffic.
Overhead bridges are very useful. People, both old and young, should always use them. This will help stop accidents from happening.

55. 从文中找出与下列句子意思相同或相近的句子。
If people use overhead bridges, they will do something good to the traffic.
