四、阅读理解（每题2分，共13题，共26分） A
China is a land of bicycles.At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country.Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle.Millions of them，all black.Cars were rare.Yet since my
arrival(到达) in Beijing last year，I’ve found the opposite is true.There are millions of cars.However，people still use their bicycles to get around.For many，it’s the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.Bicycles also come in different colors－silver，green，red，blue，yellow，whatever you want. Eager（渴望的） to be part of Chinese culture，I bought a bicycle. I at once jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.
My first ride home was orderly．To be safe，I stayed with a“pack”of bikers while cars on the streets came running quickly out of nowhere at times.I didn’t want to get hit.So I took the ride carefully.
Crossing the streets was the biggest problem.It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States.The streets here were wide，so crossing took time，skill and a little bit of luck. I finally made it home.The feeling on the bicycle was amazing.The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful.I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people.Biking made me feel alive.
45.According to the writer，why are bicycles still popular in China today? A．Because they are traditional and safe. B．Because they are easy and inexpensive. C．Because they are colorful and useful. D．Because they are fast and cheap.
46.The writer decided to buy a bicycle because he hoped ________. A．to ride it for fun B．to use it for transport
C．to experience local culture D．to improve his riding skills
47.Which of the following best describes the writer’s biking experience? A．The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills. B．The author was annoyed by the air while riding. C．The author was praised by the other bikers. D．The author took great pleasure in biking.
B
If you've been joining in chat room conversation, or trading e-mail with net pals（网友 ）, you have become one of the millions who write in a special short form of English.
Throughout the world, every night children and their elders are \them all talking at the same time.
It's fast: try talking to six people at once. It's easy: three or four words per exchange. It takes cleverness, and quick fingers.
And it requires very simple language. There’s neither time nor space for explanations. Why waste valuable time telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB(=be right back) will do?
Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI(=pardon me for jumping in).
Interested in whom you're talking to? A/S/L, the nearly universal request to know your pal's age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a response from your pal.
If something makes you laugh, say you're OTF(=on the floor), or LOL(=laughing out loud), or combine the two into ROTFL(=rolling on the floor laughing).
