38、 speaking English in different ways C. language learning tips D. some advice on English learningDAndrew Ritchie, inventor of the Brompton folding bicycle, once said that the perfect portable bike would be “like a magic carpetYou could fold it up and put it into your pocket or handbag”. Then he pause
39、d: “But youll always be limited by the size of the wheels. And so far no one has invented a folding wheel.”It was a rare indeed unique occasion when I was able to put Ritchie right. A 19th-century inventor, William Henry James Grout, did in fact design a folding wheel. His bike, predictably named th
40、e Grout Portable, had a frame that split into two and a larger wheel that could be separated into four pieces.

44、es plenty still to go for. Second, it is in the field of folding bikes that we are seeing the most interesting inventions. You can buy a folding bike for less than 1,000 that can be knocked down so small that it can be carried on a plane minus wheels, of course as hand baggage.Folding wheels would m
45、ake all manner of things possible. Have we yet got the magic carpet of Andrew Ritchies imagination? No. But its progress. 67. We can infer from Paragraph 1 that the Brompton folding bike .
