In a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bikes to work every day. In New York, some bike riders have even formed a group called Bike for a Better City . They declare that if more people rode bikes to work, there would be fewer automobiles in the downtown part of the city and so less dirty air from car engines.
For several years this group has been trying to get the city government to help bike riders. For example , they want the city to draw special lanes( 车道) for bikes on some of the main streets, because when bike riders must use the same lanes as cars there are accidents. Bike for a Better City feels that if there were special lanes, more people would use bikes.
But no bike lanes have been drawn. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea- they say it will slow traffic. Some store owners on the main streets don’t like the idea- they say that if there is less traffic, they will have less business.
The city government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. On weekends, Central Park, the largest place of open ground in New York, is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bike only.
But Bike for a Better City says that this is not enough and keeps fighting to get bike lanes down-town.

I still remember my first job in the city center. The        was large, dark and old        the physics lecture room was on the second floor.        , it wasn’t a lecture room at all, it was an ordinary room, but it had “LECTURE ROOM’ on the       . The students were sixteen or seventeen years old,        several years younger than me.       , some of them looked and acted       older than me sometimes.

The room was directly       the street, and had the window looking out over the street and many houses. One day, I was       some words on the blackboard when I heard a sudden change in the noise behind me. There was a man standing in the room with       an apple in his hand. He looked      .

“Who threw this?” he asked, looking round the class.

“I beg your pardon? What is the matter?” I said. “      threw this apple out of the window,” he said. “It       on my car.”

 “Who threw an apple out of the window?” I       to the class. There was no answer.

“I       the fellow who threw this.” said the man. “I will be       outside for you.” And then he left, closing the door behind him.

      was silence and I continued with the lesson. At the end of every lesson, usually the class were all       before the bell finished ringing, leaving me saying “That’s all for today” to an empty     .  This time, when the bell went for the end of the lesson, no one      .  “That’s all for today,” I said. “You go first, sir,” said one of the boys. It made a nice change, I being out first.
