Back to the Bike

Travelling to work or to school, if it is far from your house, gets more difficult every year. That's why people have found a very useful kind of transport or rather they have remembered it and have taken it from the past. They are going back to the bike.

In many European countries, children often go to school by bike and students cycle to classes.
But nowadays more and more office managers, businessmen and people of other professions are going to work by bike.
One of them is Dr Williams. "Cycling is good for you," he says.
Every day Dr Williams cycles to his hospital in the centre of London and he sees that drivers and their passengers can sit in traffic jams for a long time. People are afraid of being late for work and they often breathe in unclean air. They are tired and they are not happy. That's harmful for their hearts and lungs. Then it's difficult to park your car. And that doesn't do them any good either. Many people who drive cars and work in offices easily become obese. "People living in the twenty-first century do not get enough exercise," says Dr Williams, "so I tell all my patients to buy a bike. If you cycle to work, you save money and you save your health. And you often save time too. In London, it's sometimes quicker to travel by bike than by bus. Cycling is clean, quiet, cheap and healthy. And it can also be fun. Cycle to work, to college or to school all week and go for a cycle ride in the country at the week-end. Or go on a cycling holiday."

Прочитайте название текста и посмотрите на картинку. Как вы думаете,
о чём текст? Почему в названии есть слово back?

Ответ:

I think this text is about why people now often ride bicycles, like in the old
days. The word "back" in the title says that we use now what was popular
before.

Перевод:

Я думаю, этот текст о том, почему сейчас люди часто ездят на
велосипедах, как в старые времена. Слово «назад» в названии говорит о
том, что сейчас мы используем то, что было популярно раньше.

Перевод текста:

Назад к велосипеду

Добираться на работу или в школу, если это далеко от дома, становится
всё сложнее с каждым годом. Вот почему люди нашли очень полезный
вид транспорта, или, скорее, они вспомнили его и взяли его из прошлого.
Они возвращаются к велосипеду.

Во многих европейских странах дети часто ездят в школу на велосипеде,
а студенты — на занятия.

Но в настоящее время всё больше офисных менеджеров, бизнесменов и
людей других профессий ездят на работу на велосипеде.

Один из них — доктор Уильямс. «Езда на велосипеде полезна для вас», —
говорит он.

Каждый день доктор Уильямс ездит на велосипеде в свою больницу в
центре Лондона и видит, что водители и их пассажиры могут долго
стоять в пробках. Люди боятся опаздывать на работу и часто дышат
загрязненным воздухом. Они устают и недовольны. Это вредно для их
сердца и лёгких. Потом сложно припарковать машину. И это тоже не
идёт им на пользу. Многие люди, которые водят автомобили и работают
в офисах, легко становятся толстыми. «Люди, живущие в двадцать
первом веке, не получают достаточной физической нагрузки», —
говорит доктор Уильямс, — «поэтому я советую всем своим пациентам
покупать велосипед. Если вы ездите на велосипеде на работу, вы
экономите деньги и сохраняете своё здоровье. И часто вы также
экономите время. В Лондоне иногда быстрее добираться на велосипеде,
чем на автобусе. Езда на велосипеде — это чисто, тихо, дёшево и
полезно. И это также может быть весело. Ездите на велосипеде на
работу, в колледж или школу всю неделю и катайтесь на велосипеде по
сельской местности на выходных. Или отправляйтесь в отпуск на
велосипеде».

A. Прочитайте заголовок текста и посмотрите на картинку. Как вы думаете, о чем этот текст? Почему в заголовке есть слово back (назад/снова)?

Ответ:

I think the text is about people starting to use bicycles again for commuting in cities. The word back is there because cycling was a popular way to travel in the past, and now people are returning to this old habit.

Я думаю, что текст о том, как люди снова начинают использовать велосипеды для поездок по городу. Слово back (назад/снова) здесь потому, что езда на велосипеде была популярным способом передвижения в прошлом, и сейчас люди возвращаются к этой старой привычке.
