Today some people call Amsterdam the “City of Bicycles” because it is a city which is flat and convenient (方便的) for bicycles.
In the 1960s, a group of cycling fans      an idea. They believed that it would be better for everybody if the city only allows (允许) bicycles to go in the streets in the city centre. They were    that this would help to save energy, reduce pollution and provide free public transport. The group painted hundreds of bicycles       and placed them in public places around Amsterdam for people to use.      could take them and use them for short journeys, whether he was a local or a foreigner. Whenever someone finished a journey, they would    the bike there for someone else to use. The problem was that it didn"t work because     took all the bicycles within weeks!
    more than thirty years later, the “white bike” is back in town---this time with a computer chip (芯片) to  its      very move! To take a bicycle, you have to put a special card inside. The new “white bike” is not white any more but is an unusual       with bright colors. The bikes are parked at special parking places and people who want to use them have to take them to another place that has enough room.
There is already less traffic in central Amsterdam, because both locals and tourists are      the white bikes every day. Thanks to the good ideas of lots of people, like the cycling fans in the 1960s, many people around the world have been enjoying city centre streets without cars for many years.

试题分析：短文大意：本文介绍了有“自行车之城”之称的阿姆斯特丹，那里的人们推广绿色交通——骑单车出行的方法。
小题1:考查动词及语境理解。Stole偷窃； had有；refused拒绝； dropped下降，落下。根据本段所述可知，这一群骑车爱好者，有了一个主意，即希望在市中心让人们骑车，故用动词have的过去式。故选B项。
小题2:考查形容词及语境理解。thoughtful  沉思的; 体贴的; 缜密思考过的，深思熟的;  helpful有帮助的； hopeful有希望的；thankful感激的。读后面句this would help to save energy, reduce pollution and provide free public transport可知，这个方案的实施能节约能源，减少污染，提供免费的公共交通，因而是有希望实施的，故选C项。
小题3:考查形容词及语境理解。black   黑色的；brown棕色的； blue 蓝色的； white白色的。根据下文more than thirty years later, the “white bike” is back in town所述可知，这群人把自行车涂成白色的放在阿姆斯特丹的公共处，让人们来使用。故选D项。
小题4:考查不定代词及语境理解。Anyone 任何人； Everyone每个人； No one没有一个人；Someone某人。理解上下文所述可推断，在阿姆斯特丹的任何人都可以骑这些自行车进行短道行驶，故选A项。
小题5:考查动词及语境理解。Take带走，拿走； leave离开；carry扛，拿，搬； send发送。理解前半句Whenever someone finished a journey可推断，人们使用完自行车后，要把它留在那里让别人使用，留下来用动词leave，故选B项。
小题6:考查名词及语境理解。robbers抢劫者；shoplifters扒手；kidnappers绑架者；thieves小偷。根据常识可知，偷这些自行车的人应是叫做贼，故选D项。
小题7:考查连词及语境理解。However然而； Instead而不是；Therefore因此；Though尽管。通读可知，尽管以前自行车经常被盗，而三十年后，这种方便于人们出行的自行车又出现了，前后有转折关系，故选A项。
小题8:考查动词及语境理解。Make制作；mark标记；record   记录；describe描述。根据下文To take a bicycle, you have to put a special card inside.所述可知，这些电脑芯片放置于自行车中的功能是能够记录自行车的移动情况，故选C项。
小题9:考查名词及语境理解。design 设计； idea 主意； size 尺寸； experiment实验。理解句意，这种自行车不再是白色，人们把它们设计成一些明亮的色彩，这是一种不同寻常的设计，故选A项。
