Because youre not carrying the weight of your body on your feet, its a good form of exercise for people with painful feet or backs. However, with all forms of exercise its important to start slowly and build up gently. Doing too much too quickly can damage muscles that arent used to working. If you have any doubts about taking up cycling for health reasons, talk to your doctor and ask his/her advice. Ideally you should be cycling at least two or three times a week. For the exercise to be doing you good, you should get a little out of breath. Dont worry if you begin to lose your breath. Shortness of breath shows that the exercise is having the right effect.

On booking a table for four by telephone on Tuesday we were assured that there would be room for us despite the fact that your restaurant had been open only for a few weeks and all the tables had already been booked. We appreciate that there must be great demand for restaurant meals at this time of the year in such a popular and historic area but we were not expecting such an ill-mannered reception on the part of your head waiter. Our Chinese friends are currently touring the Shakespeare Country and were looking forward to a traditional English dinner in such a charming setting. But our hopes for an enjoyable evening out were instantly spoilt when your head waiter informed us that he had received no booking in our name and, so, no table was reserved for our party. My colleague and I protested at this and asked to speak to the Manager, who, we were told, was unavailable. Your staff then offered us a table which we all had to share with another couple and no effort was made to smooth over the unpleasantness we had experienced. We also had to wait for some considerable time before the menu was brought to us. I trust you will give this complaint your prompt attention as the whole embarrassing incident was a great disappointment to our guests and set a bad example to our English hospitality.Yours sincerely,Mr. Paul J.

Grace and Karen disliked Saturdays. That was another thing the twins had in common. They shared the same clothes and tied their hair in the same manner. In fact, it was hard for their classmates and teachers to tell them apart sometimes.Unlike their classmates, they had to get up early at seven every Saturday to prepare for their lessons. Grace had to attend the art lesson and Karen had to attend her ballet lesson. “How I wish I could do something different today,” said the twins with one voice. All at once, an idea came to Grace and Karen at the same time. “How would you like to be me for a day?” they asked each other. It seemed like a wonderful plan to them. After giving each other a description of their own friends, Grace put on Karens ballet dress while Karen put Graces brushes and paints into her bag. Then they left for their classes.When the art lesson started, Karen was lost. Unlike Grace, Karen was poor at drawing. When the art lesson finally ended, Karen didnt dare to hand in her work.Meanwhile, Grace was struggling in the ballet class as well. As she had no idea about the dance steps, she had to follow her classmates blindly. As a result, she kept knocking into them. Their ballet teacher became impatient with her, “Karen, you should remember the basic steps. You cant rely on copying what others are doing.”When Karen and Grace got home, they were tired out. They decided that they would never try to be someone else they were not. It seemed that the grass was not always greener on the other side.33.Did Grace and Karen like Saturdays? 34.When did the twins get up on Saturdays? 35.What was the twins plan when they decided to do something different? 36.How did Karen feel at the beginning of the art lesson? 37.Why did the ballet teacher become impatient? 38.What does the underlined part “the grass was not always greener on the other side” at the end of the story try to tell us? .33.
