Lopifit is an unusual means of transportation that allows you to power an electric bicycle by walking on a treadmill. Lopifit founder Bruin Bergmeester says it all started when he asked himself the question. How can I use a treadmill outdoors? He eventually came up with a design, to which he added an electric engine, and Lopifit was born. The treadmill bicycle is similar to a typical electric bicycle in that the motor only works when the rider puts power in as well. The Lopifit senses it when you walk on the treadmill and uses the motor to turn a drive chain at the back part of the treadmill, helping you reach a top speed of 17 miles per hour. To use the Lopifit, simply turn on the battery and use your feet to slide the treadmill backwards and activate (激活) the motor. Then get on and enjoy the ride! If you need speed, just walk on the treadmill, and if you want to coast, all you have to do is stay still and admire the view. To stop, you have two hand brakes available. The Lopifit first hit the streets in 2014 and, unsurprisingly, became an instant hit. That was actually quite challenging for the pany, because it started get inquiries and calls for orders, but it was nowhere near ready for mass production. The unique treadmill bicycle became available this year, and Lopifit is struggling to keep up with demand, despite the high price tag of $ 2,115. But despite having a very loyal fanbase of socalled Lopifitters, the creative means of transportation also has naysayers who simply consider the invention stupid and unnecessary. They basically believe that if you39。re going to walk, you might as well do it the oldfashioned way. But the Lopifit does have the unique advantage of helping you walk really fast without breaking a sweat, or walking at cycling speed, if you will.（1）With the help of Lopifit, you can ________. A.cycle to work by walkingB.offer power to any bicycleC.create a treadmill on wheelsD.answer some hard questions（2）From the second paragraph, we can learn ________. A.how Lopifit was createdB.where Lopifit can be usedC.who Lopifit is intended forD.which design is suitable for Lopifit（3）What can be learned from the fourth paragraph? A.Lopifit was cheap and available in 2014.B.Lopifit always broke down on the streets.C.It was hard for the pany to design Lopifit.D.The supply of Lopifit failed to meet the demand.（4）How do the public react to Lopifit? A.Positively.B.Variously.C.Angrily.D.Cautiously.【答案】 （1）A（2）A（3）D（4）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文。本文主要介紹了Bruin從跑步機上獲得靈感，發(fā)明了一款 “走路自行車”，在這款自行車上不需要跑步，走路就行的自行車——Lopifit。Lopifit非常受歡迎，供不應求。(1)細節(jié)理解題。由第一段Lopifit is an unusual means of transportation that allows you to power an electric bicycle by walking on a ，在Lopifit的幫助下，你可以走路去工作，選A。(2)推理判斷題。由第二段Lopifit foun
