Traditionally, business people would get to know each other over a round of golf. But road cycling is fast catching up as the preferred way of networking recently.
“When you play golf with somebody you have to decide if you‟re going to beat them, or let them beat you,” says Peter Murray, a chairman of the NLA centre. “If they‟re your customers and you don‟t want to beat them, sometimes you might have to make some kind of cheating in order to lose. That seems to me not a good way of doing things.”
Group cycling, and especially long-distance riding, is a shared experience, Mr Murray says. Riders often work together and help each other out, taking turns to be at the front so that the riders in their group can save almost a third of the effort needed to travel at the same speed.
How someone rides a bike can give you a real insight into what a person is like, says Jean-Jacques Lorraine, founding director of Morrow Lorraine, a team member of Cycle to Cannes. “Some riders are very single-minded, others more collaborative; some are skillful, others an open book.” “If I walk into a meeting and somebody says „I‟ve done Cycle to Cannes‟ , it‟s a done deal really,” says Mr Lorraine.
Mr Mottram, CEO of Rapha, believes it is easier to get to know people by cycling than in other situations. “T here is an easy environment about conversations on a bike.” Mr Lorraine makes the point more directly: “I feel open and honest to others. I often find I‟m saying things on a bike which I wouldn‟t normally say, and equally I‟ve been confided (吐露秘密) in when I wasn‟t expecting it.”
Why do cycle rides lend riders so well to networking? “Getting a quick lunch or drink after work doesn‟t give you long enough to get to know someone,” Mr. Murray says. He believes long rides get people together. “A younger rider can be cycling along with a boss and help him in some way and you get a reversal of the relationship. This changes the relationship when they are off the ride too.”
Perhaps the main reason why cycling is a good way to network is that it‟s a passion (激情) and a way of life. “Getting out on the bike is what we‟re all dreaming of doing while we‟re sitting at our computers,” says Mr Mottram. And a shared passion is a fantastic way to start any relationship.

Have you ever ridden a Ferris wheel lately? Can you imagine the flying feeling as you are pulled up to the top and then moved down to the bottom quickly again?
Today a Ferris wheel is usually 40 to 60 feet tall． That seems very high when you are on the top looking down． But the first Ferris wheel was 264 feet high – taller than a twenty-story building! Can you imagine the view from the top of that?
The first Ferris wheel was built for the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago． The people who planned the fair were looking for an attraction that would bring people to Chicago． George Ferris handed a drawing of a giant wheel that people could ride on． At first everyone laughed at his strange idea． But Mr． Ferris did not give up, and finally the idea was accepted． The ride opened in June of 1893．
Today’s Ferris wheels have 12 to 16 seats, which each carry 2 or 3 people． But that first one had 36 enclosed cars, each holding 60 passengers． When filled, it carried 2, 160 people． During that summer in Chicago, about 1．5 million people rode the Ferris wheel．
After the fair the ride was moved to a nearby amusement park built especially to show off the wheel． In 1904, it was moved again – to St． Louis for the Louisiana Purchase Exposition． After the fair there, the wheel stood unused． In 1906 it was finally sold to a company for scrap metal (廢鐵)．
Luckily a Chicago bridge builder, W．E． Sullivan, figured out how to make a smaller Ferris wheel that could easily be taken apart and put together． In 1906 he started the company that still makes many of the Ferris wheels used today．
But, whenever you ride one, remember that it all began with George Ferris’s strange idea!
1.How tall is a Ferris wheel today?

For this month’s Young World magazine, I interviewed 19-year-old Asian pop star Candy Wang. Candy told me that she used to be really shy and took up singing to deal with her shyness. As she got better, she dared to sing in front of her class, and then for the whole school. Now she’ s not shy anymore and loves singing in front of crowds. I asked Candy how life was different after she became famous. She explained that there are many good things, like being able to travel and meet new people all the time. “I didn’t use to be popular in school, but now I get tons of attention everywhere I go. ” However, too much attention can also be a bad thing. “I always have to worry about how I appear to others and I have to be very careful about what I say or do. And I don’t have much private time anymore. 74. 對我來說和朋友閑逛是不可能的now because there are always guards around me. ” What does Candy have to say to all those young people who want to become famous? “Well, ” she begins slowly, “you have to be prepared to give up your normal life. You can never imagine how difficult the road to success is. Many times I thought about giving up, but I fought on. You really require a lot of talent and hard work to succeed. 75.Only a very small number of people make it to the top.
1.How old is Candy Wang?
2.What did she use to be like?
3.Why did she take up singing?
