Mr. Holland¹ drove² to work in a car every day. When he was³ forty, he was fatand very soft, and he did⁴ not wish to get fatter and softer every year.
One day one of his friends said⁵ to him, 'Would⁶ you like to be thinner,Fred?'
'Of course⁷ I would,' Mr. Holland answered.
'Well,' his friend said, 'stop going⁸ to your office by car, and get abicycle.'
Mr. Holland had⁹ not ridden a bicycle for many years. 'It's very dangerous toride a bicycle again at your age,' his wife¹⁰ said.
But he bought a bicycle for his birthday and practiced¹² riding every evening.
He hoped¹³ that it would help him get thinner, and he got¹⁴ a lot of pleasurefrom practice¹¹.
Then he began to go to his office on his bicycle. Sometimes all the carsstopped at a red light, and he went past them to the front because hisbicycle was small. He was very happy.
Yesterday he stopped at a red light, and a man came¹⁵ up behind him on anotherbicycle. He stopped too and asked Mr. Holland, 'Have the police¹⁶ taken yourdriving license¹⁷ away too?'

骑自行车
霍兰先生每天驾车上班。当他四十岁时，变得肥胖且很不结实，而他不愿意一年年变得越来越胖和虚弱。
一天，他的一个朋友对他说：“你想减肥吗，佛瑞德？”
“当然想了，”霍兰先生答。
“那么，”他的朋友说，“不要开车上班，骑车去。”
霍兰先生许多年不骑车了。“你这个年龄骑车很危险。”妻子说。
但他还是在生日时买了辆自行车，并且每天晚上练习骑车。他希望这能帮助自己变瘦，而且他从练习中得到了很多乐趣。
然后他开始骑车上班。有时所有的汽车因红灯停车时，因为自行车小，霍兰先生骑车超到汽车前面，他非常高兴。
昨天他停车等红灯时，一个人骑自行车从后面到他跟前。他也停下来，然后问霍兰先生：“警察也没收了你的驾驶执照了吗？”
