8、9;ve lived in big cities. And I was often woken at night and frequently concerned by the almost constant sounds of car and truck engines. I now live in the middle of the woods.So I was excited when hearing about the Spanish city that has prevented cars from running. It seemingly means I could have e

9、verything that a city offers museums and culture, walking to get groceries or delicious coffee, a quick subway or bus ride to workand peace and quiet. It sounds like that's what people in Pontevedra got after this city carried out its leader Lores' order of changing 75 acres of this city'

10、;s historic center into a pedestrian（行人）only place.Formerly, the area had been filled with cars. People tried to get in and out of the area as quickly as they could. Cars would get stuck in the area when they tried to cross the city, while others circled endlessly looking for a parking space, which

11、led to unhappiness for drivers and plenty of noise for pedestrians and residents（居民）.Later the area was rebuilt with beautiful stones and returned to pedestrians. Nearly three-quarters of what were car journeys are now made on foot or by bicycle. Air becomes much cleaner. As a result, the population

12、 of central Pontevedra is obviously increasing after it has attracted 12,000 new residents from nearby towns to live there.Considering the negative health effects of pollution, it makes sense to get rid of cars from at least some parts of urban areas. The good news is that Pontevedra isn't the o

13、nly one to expand car-free areas. Dublin, Santa Monica and Burlington have pedestrian-only areas, too. These cities' great changes will probably positively shape many other leaders' decisions on city planning. （1）What do we know about the author's past life in cities?A.She preferred to k

17、s exactly what I did five years ago and I immediately fell in love with dancing. To me, dancing is a magical experience: I've become fitter, look younger and feel more confident. I enjoy it so much that I will never give up this healthy pastime.It's very sociable as well. You meet peopl

18、e and make new friends while dancing the night away. Haven't you heard stories about how dancing inspired new romances or rekindled（重燃）old ones? My friends Joe and Rena just had their big day a few weeks ago after they met each other at a Ceroc workshop some three years before.The word "Cer

19、oc" comes from the French language. Without the complicated footwork, it is easier to pick up by beginners. Another good thing about Ceroc is that while it is a partner dance, you don't have to bring a dancing partner.Other popular styles of dancing in the UK include ballroom, belly dancing

20、, lindy hop, salsa, tango and tap dancing, just to name a few.No matter what types of dancing you do, one thing is for sure: you will become fitter. For office workers like me, dancing is good cardio exercise after a long day sitting in front of the computer screen. It also strengthens your muscles,

21、 improves your coordination（協(xié)調(diào)）and increases your physical confidence.Few people will end up being queens of the dance floor. The aim is not to win a competition but to enjoy the interaction（交流）. As long as you do the right moves, keep the rhythm and most importantly keep an encouraging smile to you

25、the connection between dancing and health. 4. I often wonder how people can get so angry, so deep in their own belief that they become deaf to anything that may differ from their beliefs. I've often been told that I'm too open-minded, listening to others' viewpoints so openly that t

26、hey become my own. Maybe that comes from my practice of actively listening to others. It means that I do really hear them instead of responding only out of politeness. Maybe it's because I was brought up by parents who didn't necessarily speak to me about respecting others but modeled it for

27、 me through their own actions. They treated everyone equally, from what I remember, never looking down upon others because they were different from us.As I raise my daughters, I try my best to show them love and understanding in all situations. When they misbehave, talk back, or break the rules, I&#

28、39;ll lovingly analyze the reasons behind their behaviour. I'll be tolerant（寬容的）towards their differing opinions and become open and curious about their ideas. And I'll be mindful of how I treat and speak to others, showing equal respect to everyone.My expectation is that if I show my d

29、aughters unconditional love and acceptance, they'll learn to show the same love to others. I hope that they will not see difference as a threat（威脅）, but as a way to add richness to their very existence. It's beautiful to live in a world filled with so many differences.So, as I write this, we

30、lcoming my second daughter to my family, I'm fully aware that change begins with how I act and what decisions I make. Every generation carries its own set of problems.
