 　　Learning to Ride Bike学骑自行车

　　It was a hot summer day in Los Angeles. The temperature for the day was about 95 degrees Fahrenheit. Suzie, a little girl, loved sitting on the porch to watch the boys playing in the yard. Today, her friends were riding their bikes up and down the street. The two boys were Joey and Bob, and they were trying to see who could ride their bikes faster. On one race, Bobby got out to a big lead, but Joey was getting closer. Bobby was getting tired and Joey was able to pass him. Suzie was having fun watching them when her mother came outside and asked her what she was doing. “I’m watching the boys ride their bicycles, Mommy,” she said. Then Suzie asked her mom if she could teach her how to ride. Her mom thought about it for a while. She was thinking that Suzie might be too young to learn how to ride, but in the end, she thought it was time for her to learn.

　　这是洛杉矶的一个炎热的夏天。这一天的温度大约是华氏95度，苏西，一个小女孩，喜欢坐在门廊上看男孩们在院子里玩。今天，她的朋友们在街上骑自行车。这两个男孩是乔和鲍勃，他们想看看谁能骑自行车快。在比赛刚开始，博比就领先了一大步，但乔却紧追不舍。之后鲍比变得疲劳速度就慢了下来之后乔伊就超过了他。苏西正在有趣的看着他们的时候，她的母亲出来了，问她在干什么。她说：“我在看男生们骑自行车，妈妈。然后苏西问她妈妈是否可以教她骑车，她妈妈想了一会儿，认为苏西可能太小而学不会怎么骑车，但最后，她认为那是她学骑车的时候了。

　　Suzie was only four years old at the time. She was a little scared at first, but she loved the bike her mother had bought her and was very excited. Her mom held onto the bike as Suzie slowly started to peddle. She gained speed and was having fun when she fell on the sidewalk scraping her knee. Suzie began to cry from the pain, but her mom told her she was okay. After a few minutes, Suzie stopped crying and got back on her bike and started peddling again. She fell a few more times, but didn’t cry much after that. She just kept getting up and tried again and again. Suzie was learning how to keep her balance and was riding along when she noticed that her mother wasn’t holding the bike anymore. She got scared, but soon realized she could ride a bike all by herself. Suzie was very happy.

　　苏西当时才四岁。她起初有点害怕，但她很喜欢她妈妈给她买的那辆自行车，而且非常兴奋。她妈妈抓住自行车让苏西慢慢开始踩着脚踏板骑着。她获得了速度的感觉感觉很有乐趣，不过当她跌倒在人行道上时，她因为疼痛而哭了起来，但她妈妈告诉她，没有事的。几分钟后，苏西，停止了哭泣，回到了她的自行车，重新踩着脚踏板骑着。她又跌了几次，但没哭。她只是不断地站起来，反复尝试。苏西学习如何保持身体平衡的骑着，当她发现母亲不拿自行车了，她吓了一跳，但很快就意识到她可以自己掌控着骑车，苏西感觉非常开心。
