Original Text SAFETY comes first if you want to make cycling fun, without falls or getting hurt. Here are some things to keep in mind: 1. Before you start, make sure the bike’s brakes (刹车), seat and tyres (轮胎) work well. Make sure your bike is the right size. A bike that’s too big or small is hard to control (控制). 2. Always follow traffic signals (信号) and road signs (标志). Keep your hands on or close to the brakes. Stop at all stop signs and traffic signals. 3. When passing other bikers or people walking, let them know where you are by shouting something like, ‘On your left!’ Always look behind you when changing roads. 4. Watch out for dangerous things in the road. Wastes (垃圾) and holes (坑) can make you lose control. Be extra careful at crossroads. 5. Don’t make sudden turns. Drivers of cars may not be able to react (反应) quickly enough. When you want to make a turn, signal first. For a left turn look behind you, hold your left arm straight out and then turn carefully. For a right turn hold you left arm out and up, like an ‘L’. 6. Ride at least one metre away from parked cars. Someone could open a door suddenly and hurt you. Listen for cars coming from the side or behind you. Don’t follow cars too closely. While-reading questions 1. Before you start cycling, what should you pay attention to ?
