广东省深圳市2021年初中毕业生学业水平考试英语全真模拟试卷(2)
Mick Polly, an owner of a toy store, lives with his teenage daughter Carolina in Kentucky. He is known as the Bike Man. Over the past five years, Mick has built hundreds of bikes for needy kids.
One day in 2012, a 13yearold boy with a broken bike walked by Mick's house. "I was working in my garage, and he asked if I could fix it," says Mick, now 53.
The boy's bike had a broken wheel. Mick sent a post on Facebook, asking his friends if they had the needed part. One friend saw the post and gave away two used bikes. Mick took parts from each to build a new set of wheels for the boy.
Soon after, Mick repaired a bike for the boy's brother and fixed one for his sister. Word spread, and during the year, he had fixed up lots of bikes for local kids whose parents were not able to afford new ones.
"People are throwing away bikes day and night," says Mick.
Mick puts the bikes and bike parts in his garage. "I take off the good tires or the handlebars or the seats and use them," he says.
Up to now, the bike man has repaired hundreds of bikes and given away nearly 700 newly repaired bikes. They're free, but the kids must agree on two things: They have to learn how to put waste things to good use and they have to try their best to study in school.
If a kid's grades are low, Mick requires a teacher's note "saying that you're doing your best". Mick also hopes the bikes will get kids off the sofa. "When I was growing up, we all rode our bikes," he says. "Hopefully, these kids can get some exercise."
①To have a rest in the sofa. ②To study hard.
③To recycle waste things. ④To get high marks.
⑤To exercise more. ⑥To learn to repair bikes.
