Cycling


What's the furthest you have ever cycled?



Perhaps you cycle to school or to work, or maybe at most a short cycling trip with friends? How would you feel about spending months on the road travelling solo from the UK to China, by bike?

For British cyclist Pete Jones, camping rough and cycling long distances through inhospitable terrain are second nature. Mr Jones is currently undertaking a mammoth trip across the Eurasian continent from Britain to China. Pete Jones is no stranger to China. But he says many people there are puzzled by his passion for cycling, asking why he would choose to cycle when he can afford a car. Indeed, while there are an estimated 400 million bicycles in China, where it has long been the preferred form of transport, rapid economic growth has fuelled an explosive expansion in car ownership.

Edward Genochio, another British cyclist who completed a 41,000km trip to China and back, said one of his aims was to "promote cycling as a safe, sustainable and environmentally benign means of getting about". In the UK, the last few years have seen a rise in the number of people choosing two wheels over four, with some estimates saying the number of people cycling to work has almost doubled in the last five years. Politicians also see cycling as a way to boost their eco-credentials, with people such as London mayor Boris Johnson often riding to work under his own steam. But we may have to wait some time before we see him emulating Pete Jones in attempting to cycle all the way to China!

III- it’s very important to wear a helmet while cycling. IV- in the UK, some estimates say the number of people cycling to work has almost doubled in the last twenty five years.

Most people would agree that learning a second language in a natural acquisition contexto or “on the street” is not the same as learning it in the classroom. Many believe that learning “on the street” is more effective.The traditional instruction environment is one where the language is being taught to a group of second or foreign language learners. In this case, the focus is on the language itself, rather than on information which is carried by the language. The teacher´s goal is to see to it that the students learn the vocabulary and grammatical rules of the target language. The goal of learners in such courses is often to pass an examination rather than to use the language for daily communicative interaction. Communicative instruction environments also involve learners whose goal is learning the language itself, but the style of instruction places an emphasis on interaction, conversation, and language use, rather than on learning about the language. The topics which are discussed in the communicative instruction environment are often topics of general interest to the learner. In these classes, the focus is not selected on the basis of teaching a specific feature of the language, but on teaching learners to use the language in a variety of contexts. Students´ success in these courses is measured in terms of their ability to ‘get things done’ in the second language, rather than on their accuracy in using certain grammatical features.

The right to drive or the right to breathe?
Politicians have taken some steps to cut deaths from dirty air, but more are needed.

In 1554, a band of wandering Jesuits, after sweating through southern Brazil’s forested coastal hills, stopped by a river on the high Piratininga plateau and, delighted at its fresh, cool air, founded the city of São Paulo. Were they to return now, for much of the year they would find a grey-brown smog shrouding a metropolis of 18m people and 6m vehicles. The foul air kills thousands of people a year and inflicts chronic illness on countless others. Mexico city has long been notorious for its polluted air. Fuel burns less efficiently at high altitudes, and thermal inversions mean that the surrounding mountains trap a layer of cold air above the city, preventing the dispersal of fumes. But the surge in car ownership throughout Latin America since the 1970s means that São Paulo and other Latin American capitals are no longer far behind. Though at lower altitudes, both São Paulo and Santiago suffer from thermal inversions, too. http://www.economist.com/node/1021580. Acesso em 30 de Abril de 2014.

Consider the following statements:

I. Learning a language in a natural environment is similar to learning it in a traditional classroom. II. Traditionally, learning a language in the classroom means focusing on the language itself, that is, its grammar and vocabulary. III. Communicative instruction environments focus on using the language. IV. In communicative instruction environments, learners´ mistakes are often corrected.

    THE euro-zone's feeble recovery since the spring of 2013 came to a halt in the second quarter of 2014, when GDP stagnated. There were some bright spots. Spanish growth quickened from 0.4% in the first three months of the year to 0.6%. And both Dutch and Portuguese GDP, which had contracted in the first quarter, rebounded, with growth of 0.5% and 0.6% respectively. But the euro area was held back by poor performances in its three biggest economies. GDP fell in Germany, the biggest, and Italy, the third largest, by 0.2%; France, the second largest economy, stagnated.

    Can Audio or Digital Books Improve Learning Outcomes?

    Children with learning disabilities (LD), like dyslexia, have trouble understanding words they read. Causes are unclear, but we now know that LD is not due to a lack of intelligence or a desire to learn.

     While dyslexia is a life-long condition, early identification, support from a parent or teacher, and access to digital or audio books and other learning materials may help your child to improve their learning outcomes and be better prepared to successfully work around their LD.

    Research now demonstrates that when children with LD are given accessible instructional materials (often referred to as AIM) — textbooks or learning materials that are delivered in audio and/or digital formats — they can excel in school and also learn to enjoy reading.
    Reading with digital (or e-books) and audio books can enrich a user's learning experience by engaging them in the content in multi-sensory ways.

    Excelling at an assigned project is expected. Excelling at a side project -- especially one you created -- helps you stand out.

    For example, years ago I decided to create a Web-based employee handbook my then-employer could put on the company Intranet. I worked on it at home on my own time. Some managers liked it but the HR manager didn't, so it died an inglorious death.

    I was disappointed but the company wasn't "out" anything, and soon after I was selected for a high visibility company-wide process improvement team because my little project had made me "that guy.”
