Nowadays, more and more people begin to like bicycling. It is fun, healthy and good for the environment (环境). Maybe that’s why there are 1.4 billions of bicycles and only 400 million cars on roads worldwide today. Bikes can take you almost anywhere and there is no oil cost!

Folding bikes work well for people who take the train. Just fold the bike and take it with you. You can do the same on an airplane. A folding bike can be packed in a suitcase.

·Bicycling helps to control your weight.
·A 15-minute bike ride three times a week can help you keep in good health.

阅读短文，并按要求完成71~75题。
Life will probably be very different in 2080. First of all, it seems that TV channels will have disappeared by 2080. Instead, people will choose a program from a “menu” and a computer will send the program directly to the television. Today, we can use the World Wide Web to read newspaper stories and see pictures on a computer thousands of kilometers away. By 2080, music, films, programs, newspapers and books will come to us in this way.
In future, it will be much easier and faster to travel. Cars will run on new, clean fuels and they will go very fast. Cars will have computers to control the speed of them and there won’t be any accidents. Today, we can use computers to tell drivers where they are. By 2080, the computer will control the car and drive it to your destination (目的地). Space planes will take people halfway around the world in 2 hours. Today, the United States Space Shuttle can go into space and land on Earth again. By 2080, space planes will fly people from America to Japan in just two hours.
Some big companies now prefer to use robots that do not ask for pay and work 24 hours a day. By 2080, we will see robots everywhere—in factories, schools, offices, hospitals, shops and homes.

One possible version:
My family are going on a trip to Dalian during the winter holidays. How do we get there? Taking a plane is the fastest way to get there, but the plane ticket is very expensive. We can also go there by ship. On the way, we can enjoy the beautiful sea. But it takes too much time. I think the best way to get there is to take a train. It’s cheaper to take a train than to take a plane. And we’ll feel safe and comfortable on it. I’m sure the journey on the train will be a lot of fun.
