　　People who live near the sea from the tides．In the daytime, for about six hours, the water rises higher and higher on the beach．And then it about six hours．The same thing happens again at night．There are two high tides and two low tides every 24 hours．

　　The bicycle is one of the simplest yet most useful inventions(發(fā)明)in the world．What is most surprising is that it was not invented earlier, although the great inventor Leonardo da Vinci had drawn pictures for bicycles and also for flying machines and some other things．Those things were not produced(生產(chǎn))until long after he died．

　　A person riding a bicycle uses little energy(能量)to make the bicycle move, and there is no pollution(污染)at all when you are riding．Even so, in developed countries, most people don’t travel to work by bicycle．It is not because the bicycles are expensive or people feel tired if they ride to work．It’s because the number of cars on the roads becomes larger．It certainly becomes more dangerous to ride a bicycle．As a result, more people put their bicycles away and go to work in their cars and, in this way, the situation(情形)is made more serious．Perhaps the best way to make riding safer and more popular is to create paths(開設(shè)通道)only for bicycles, and to make it so difficult and expensive for drivers to take their cars into the city that they will go back to using their bicycles．
