1.How many ways can you think of to use wheels
2.How can you get to the moon
Hello, I'm Jeremy. I'm from the U.S. This is my report on transportation.
This world is always moving. Everything seems to have wheels, engines or wings.
Everything seems to be getting faster, too. Long ago, horses pulled carts, but now we have engines on everything, even on bicycles and skateboards!
Where did it begin
What's your favourite type of transportation.
Well, in the 1700s people invented the steam engine. That was the beginning of trains. Then steam was able to power boats and cars. Boats have been around for thousands of years. Now with engines, they can go very fast. The first car appeared about two hundred years ago, and now the roads are full of cars. All of these cars make the U.S. a nation on wheels.
Transportation is not just on the ground or water. Over 100 years ago, people began to make flying machines. Today we travel a lot by airplane.
Now people can even travel to space in spaceships. Can you imagine future transportation
My favourite type of transportation is the bicycle. I like to go everywhere by bike in my city. It's good for my health and for the environment.
It's fun to ride a bike.
Let's Do It!

Read the passage and label the bicycle.
Bicycle means “two wheels”. The first bicycle was probably created in Germany in 1816.It was heavy and had wooden wheels. At first, the bicycle had two wheels but no pedals. People pushed it along with their feet. In 1838, a man in the U.K. invented pedals. The modern bicycle was invented in 1876 in England. By 1900, bicycles had tyres filled with air. Air filled tyres made bicycles more
comfortable to ride. Today's bicycles look the same as bicycles from the 1900s, but they are lighter. This is because they all have hollow frames.

2. The world is always moving.
be always doing sth “总是或一致做某事”, 现在进行时与always连用, 表示一个经常重复的动作或状态。常用来表达说话人的某种感情, 如:赞叹、埋怨、厌烦等。

4. Long ago, horses pulled carts…
pull作及物动词, 意为“拉, 拖”, 反义词为push

相关短语:
pull down“推翻;摧毁” pull out of “拔掉;取出”

5. Then steam was able to power boats and cars.
be able to表示“能;能够”, 后接动词原形
辨析:can & be able to
be able to
