Right in front of the Minneapolis Central Library，a row of green bikes sits parked in a special stand.Each bike is designed with the logo“Nice Ride”—the name of the city’s bike-share program.
上海龙凤1314 shlf Nice Ride bikes are a lot like the library books that people come here to borrow.To rent a bike，you simply use your membership card at a Nice Ride bike station.Members can rent one of 1,200 bikes from 138 stations throughout Minnesota's largest city.People use the Nice Ride bikes to go to work，to go out on business，or just to enjoy the city’s many bike paths.
The rise of bike-share programs like Nice Ride is encouraging more people than ever to choose biking over driving.Rising gas prices and concerns about the environment have also gotten people to dust off their bike helmets， pump air into flat tires，and hit the road.
Why ride? Not only is biking good exercise，but switching from a car to a bike also r educes the amount of pollution in the air.Carbon dioxide，a greenhouse gas linked to climate change，is one of the many polluting substances that come out of a car's tallpipe.
上海龙凤1314 shlf Bike-share systems are found around the world in cities like London，Paris，Barcelona，and Melbourne，Australia.The largest program-with 70,000 bikes-is in Wuhan，China.
To make roads fri endlier to non-motorists，the U.S.Department of Transportation has invested more than a billion dollars in cycling and pedestrian projects in recent years.The money went toward building thousands of miles of on-street bike lanes and bike-and pedestrian-only passages called green ways.

[3]There are as many misconceptions about teen depression as there are about teenagers in general. Yes，the teen years are tough，but most teens balance the troubles with good friendships，success in school or outside activities，and the development of a strong sense of self.Occasional bad mood or acting out is t o be expected，but depression is something different.Depression can destroy the very essence of a teenager’s personality， causing an overwhelming sense of sadness，despair，or anger.
[4]If you’re unsure whether all adolescent in your life is depressed or just”being a teenager”，consider how long the symptoms have been present，how severe they are，and how different the teen is acting from his or her usual self.While some“growing pains”are to be expected as teenagers fight with the challenges of growing up，dramatic，long lasting changes in personality， mood，or behavior are red flags of a deeper problem.

Dear Sir or Madam,
上海龙凤1314 shlf I am Li Hua. I am a student in Class 1, Grade 3. I have read the notice that our school radio station needs two English announcers, so I’m writing to introduce myself.
First of all, I am greatly interested in broadcasting. I have received some professional training in my spare time, hoping that I can work as an announcer in the future. Now I would like to put what I have learned into practice and gain some experience. Besides, I am good at English, especially spoken English. I won first prize in the English Speech Competition last year. So I think I am highly qualified for the job. If I am admitted, I will try my best to serve the students. I sincerely hope that you can give me a chance to work for the school radio station.
I am looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
