周末加油站（喻）

本刊试题研究中心

Task 1

In case you hadn't noticed—men and women have very different bodies.In general，women are shorter， have narrower shoulders， carry less muscle mass and have proportionally（成比例地）longer legs and shorter backs than men.Despite these cleardifferences， mostbike builders were content to make bicycles for the two sexes that were pretty much the same.

However，thank goodness then for Liv.The brainchild of the shy Bonnie Tu，often called as the “Godmother of Cycling”， the brand is the world's first cycling brand for women.The bikes are designed by women， built by women， sold by women and， of course，ridden by women.

Tu is also the CFO of Giant，so she knows a thing or two about making female-friendly frames.Most of Liv's bikes are complex，highend performance rides.But there are also some far simpler machines on offer，too.The Flourish， for instance， offers an easy way to get around town.No hurry， but lots of fun—and perfect for women.

These bone conducting headphones let you have music on the move and hear the traffic.They're safe in every respect.The AfterShokz range offers you a more comfortable and healthy listening experience with three models of earfree headphones： Sport， Mobile and Game.Unlike conventional headphones and earbuds（耳塞）that use the eardrums（鼓膜）to transmit sound，AfterShokz transmits sound through the listener's cheekbones to the inner ear，bypassing the eardrum completely.As you know，it's important for cyclists to hear near vehicles，traffic sound，other road or trail （小径）users，and most headphones don't let this sound in.After-Shokz allows you to hear what is going on around you without affecting sound quality.The next generation of bone conduction technology is what's inside the lightest and most organically designed open-ear headphones to date.After-Shokz has cut the size and used good materials everywhere possible to make sure they not only fit more safely but sound better too.
