They walked!Later Columbus found the New World in 1492. At first, only a few Europeans followed. They travelled to America in boats. For the next 300 years, about 500,000 people went there. Then the number grew very quickly. From 1815 to 1915, over 32,000,000 Europeans went to the U.S.A. Among them there were people from France, Italy and other countries.

In our country you can see bicycles almost everywhere. When you walk on the road, you will find a lot of people riding bicycles to school, shops and anywhere else. Therefore(因此), China is known as "the kingdom of bicycles". In China, many families have one or two bicycles.Compared(与… 比) with cars, bicycles have many advantages. First, they are much cheaper than cars. Most Chinese can't afford cars, but they can afford bicycles. Second, bicycles are small enough to park anywhere, while cars need a larger piece of land to park. What's more, with lower speed, bicycles are safer than cars.However, bicycles also bring some problems. Some riders don't obey the traffic rules and some riders don't think about others' safety. So they ride too fast. During rush hours, too many bicycles may cause traffic jams. We still have a long way to go to solve the problem.59. Where can you see bicycles in China?A. In the big city.B.

In cities in America, there are clocks in stations, factories and other buildings. Radio tells thecorrect time during the day. Most Americans also have watches with them wherever they go. They want to do certain things at certain time. They don't like to be late.But time is not so important to everybody in the world. When you visit a country in South America, you will find that people there don't like to rush. If you had an appointment with somebody, he could probably be late, because he may not want to arrive on time.In South America, even the radio program may not begin on time. The men on the radio may not think it is important to tell the exact time. People in South America think that clocks or watches are just machines. They think that you let a clock or a watch control your life if you do everything on time.64.
