You have probably heard of tomato throwing and the polar bear swim,but have you ever heard of the sport of cheese rolling?
Cheese rolling is an event that takes place every spring at Cooper's Hill,Gloucestershire(a county in England,west of London). People say that cheese rolling is one of Great Britain's oldest customs. Some say the custom started even before the Romans lived in that country 2000 years ago.Most say cheese rolling has been going on for at least a couple of centuries as a celebration of the onset (beginning)of summer.
Each year, thousands of spectators come to Cooper's Hill to watch people chase ( run after) a three kilogram round of Double Gloucester Cheese down the hillside. There are separate races for men and women, and uphill races for boys and girls too. The winners get to keep the rounds of cheese they have tried so hard to catch. However, no one ever catches the cheese because it runs fast down the slope(斜坡)at nearly 110 kilometers per hour !
It is funny to imagine people chasing a little wheel of cheese as it rolls down a hill, but maybe it is not so funny to see it because Cooper's Hill is very Steep(陡峭的).Every year, several of the cheese chasers tumble down the hill.

Have you ever heard of spirit bears? They are endangered members of the black bear family. One in ten black bears is actually born with a spirit bear.
Clover, a three-year-old spirit bear, lives at B.C. Wildlife Park near Kamloops, British Columbias, Canada. He lost his parents two years ago and was raised at a wildlife center. When he was set free into the wild, he went into human camps looking for food. Wildlife experts tried to get him used to living on his own, but he continued to look for places where there were people. Finally the experts decided that he could not live in the wild. Since then, a total of $750000 has been collected to create a habitat for Clover.
The habitat covers about three acres(英亩) of land and includes natural forest, two ponds connected by a small river and something else. It will add a platform(站台) and a walkway later this year so that people can see Clover and his habitat more closely. There will also be a center where people can learn more about spirit bears. Besides, a black bear will be moved into the habitat so Clover will not feel lonely.

There are about 1200 bears who carry the gene for white fur, but only about 200 white spirit bears in the world. Kermode bears are found only in British Columbia.

Have you ever thought about making a bicycle that you dream of? Some creative people have invented some special bicycles. Here are three of them.
Bambikes Bambikes are produced in a company in Philippines. They are made of an unusual king of bamboo and other materials like metal and a local plant. They are very strong. And they are a perfect combination (结合) of the greenest building material and common bicycles. By making bambikes, the company offers jobs to the local people. Besides, it provides money for some students in its community to pay for their study. To continue the production, the company plants more bamboo than it cuts. |
The heaviest bicycle A German cycling lover, Frank Dose, has recently made the world’s heaviest bicycle with big old wheels and lots of other waste materials. He created it just because of a bet (打赌) he made with his friend. The bicycle weighed 1.08 tones. It broke the world record of its kind in weight. Frank said his bicycle was surprisingly easy to ride although it had a huge size and weighed a lot. He rode it in front of 5,000 people for over 100 meters to prove it. |
Twisted (变形的) bicycles Two brothers in France created a bike that looks strange to ride and twists in the middle. Riders can make tight turns (急转弯). The brothers say the bicycle is hard to ride so it can stop people from stealing it. In fact, it isn’t as hard to control as you think. It takes a day or two to get used to the crazy way of riding. It’s amazing. So far, there have 30 of the bicycle, but they are not for sale yet. |
判断下列句子是否符合短文内容,符合的用“A”表示,不符合的用“B”表示。
1.Frank built the world’s heaviest bicycle with the material that his friend bought for him.
2.Some students in the community can get money from the bambike company to pay for.
3.Bambikes are made of a special kind of bamboo and other materials.
4.The two brothers rode their bike in front of some people to show how to use them.
5.30 twisted bicycles were made and sold out.
