　　New Yorkers are gradually getting used to more pedaling passengers on those blazing blue Citi Bikes. But what about local bike shops? Is Citi Bike rolling up riders at their expense? At Gotham Bikes in Tribeca, a manager who gave his name as “Ben W.” said the shop has seen an increase in its overall sales due to the bike-share program. “It’s getting more people on the road, more people learning about the sport and getting involved,” he said. An employee at Danny’s Cycles in Gramercy said Citi Bike is a good option for people to ease into biking in a city famed for its vehicular congestion and aggressive drivers. “They can try out a bike without committing to buying one,” James Ryan said.

　　Rentals are not a big part of the business at either Gotham Bikes or Danny’s Cycles. But for Frank’s Bike Shop, a small business that has been at its current Lower East Side location on Grand St. since 1976, the bike-share program has been bad news. Owner Frank Arroyo said that his rental business has decreased by 90 percent since the Citi Bikes were rolled out last month.

　　However, Ben said the bike-share is good for bike sales at his shop. “People have used the bike-share and realized how great it is to bike in the city, then decide that they want something nicer for themselves,” he noted.

　　Christian Farrell of Waterfront Bicycle Shop, on West St. just north of Christopher St., said initially he was concerned about bike-share, though, he admitted, “I was happy to see people on bikes.”

　　Farrell’s early concerns were echoed by Andrew Crooks, owner of NYC Velo, at 64 Second Ave. “It seemed like a great idea, but one that would be difficult to implement,” Crooks said of Citi Bike. He said he worried about inexperienced riders’ lack of awareness of biking rules and backlash from non-cyclists. However, he said, it’s still too early to tell if his business has been impacted.

　　While it’s possible bike-share will cause a drop in business in the long run, Crooks allowed that the idea, as a whole, is good for the city.

　　56題 B

　　題干意思是：對(duì)于在紐約逐漸提升的Citi Bikes的使用，作者最為關(guān)心的是什么。定位詞為Citi Bikes，因?yàn)槭堑谝活}，按順序原則先定位到第一段第一句。第一句陳述了在紐約Citi Bikes的使用漸漸被人們所習(xí)慣，是原文的同義改寫(xiě)。按照金三句原則，看定位句的下一句But what about local bike shops? Is Citi Bike rolling up riders at their expense? 作者立馬關(guān)心起local bike shops，而且問(wèn)到了Citi Bikes是否收費(fèi)的問(wèn)題，答案選B

　　57題 C

　　定位詞為大寫(xiě)人名Gotham，題干意思是：自行車共享計(jì)劃后Gotham的車行發(fā)生了什么。題干當(dāng)中的as a result of表示因果關(guān)系，我們要找到自行車共享計(jì)劃對(duì)gotham的商店帶來(lái)的一個(gè)結(jié)果。定位在第一段的第三行， Gotham Bikes的一個(gè)manager說(shuō)道 “the shop has seen an increase in its overall sales due to the bike-share program.” 定位句中的due to(因?yàn)?是原文as a result of的取反改寫(xiě)，我們要找的是結(jié)果，看到due to前面的部分——商店已經(jīng)看到在他們的整體銷量的一個(gè)提升。答案選C選項(xiàng)。

　　58題 B

　　題干意思是：為什么自行車共享計(jì)劃對(duì)于Frank’s Bike Shop來(lái)說(shuō)是壞消息的?要找到一個(gè)原因。定位詞是大寫(xiě)名詞Frank’s Bike Shop，定位到原文第二段第三行。定位句本身只是陳述事實(shí)，看定位詞的下一句找原因。F店的店主說(shuō)道since the Citi Bikes were rolled out last month.因?yàn)樽孕熊嚬蚕碛?jì)劃的推行，his rental business has decreased by 90 percent，他的rental business租借生意下降了百分之九十。答案選B，顧客都被Citi Bikes拉走了，就沒(méi)人來(lái)租自行車了。

　　59題 A

　　題干意思是：為什么Andrew Crooks認(rèn)為自行車共享計(jì)劃難以執(zhí)行?定位到文章第五段。第三句：He said he worried about inexperienced riders’ lack of awareness of biking rules and backlash from non-cyclists. 他擔(dān)心經(jīng)驗(yàn)不足的騎行者缺乏對(duì)騎行規(guī)則的意識(shí)以及來(lái)自非騎行者的反對(duì)。他的擔(dān)心有兩點(diǎn)，在答案中找到任何一點(diǎn)就可以，答案選A。經(jīng)驗(yàn)不足的騎行者會(huì)破壞騎行規(guī)則。

　　60題 D
