第三节：阅读理解（共20题；每小题2分，共40分）

阅读下列短文，从每题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A

In a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bicycles 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 bicycles 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 bicycle riders. For example, they want the city to draw special lanes（车道） for bicycles only on some of the main streets, because when bicycle 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 bicycle 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 bicycles only.

But Bike for a Better City says that this is not enough and keeps fighting to get bicycle lanes downtown.

56. In New York , a group of bike riders______.

A. are keeping practising for health

B. have no cars of their own

C. are complaining（埋怨） there are not enough buses

57. The bike riders suggest that______.

A. bicycles should be used instead of cars

B. bicycle lanes should be drawn

C. fewer buses or cars should be used

D. the number of special lanes should be increased

58. The advantage of the special lanes is that______.

A. they will make cars and buses run slowly

B. they will make it easier for bike riders to go to parks

C. they will make the city more beautiful

D. the lanes will prevent accidents

59. The government has not decided whether special lanes should be drawn______.

A. so that everyone is disappointed

B. because there are different opinions

C. because most people travel by train

D. because Bike for a Better City is not strong enough
