Two-wheeling around the cityThe city of Paris has had a self-service bicycle rental system called Vélib for a number of years now. Parisians and visitors can pick up and drop off bicycles throughout the city. At the beginning, there were 750 locations – offering a total of 10,648 bikes. Now, there are approximately 1,800 locations in Paris – every 300 metres! – and 20,000 bikes. To use the bikes, riders can buy a one-day card, a weekly card or an annual card. After buying the card, riding for the first half hour is free and after that you pay per half hour of bike use. You can pay for the bike at any of the Vélib stations. Now, throughout the world, towns and cities are introducing

similar city bike-hire schemes in order to improve the quality of life by getting more people cycling. Vélib in Paris has set an example for the world’s biggest cities. Now London, Boston and Montreal all have their own cycle-hire schemes. They hope this will reduce car traffic

and make things easier for the people who live there. London started in 2010, and now there are 570 stations and more than 8,000 bikes. The new system was very popular – there were around one million cycle rides in the city In the first ten weeks!

This is the story of a horse named Black Beauty, from his early life on an English farm to his difficult life pulling cabs in London, and finally his happy retirement in the country. Along the way, he meets with many hardships and tells many stories of cruelty and kindness. Here Black Beauty is working for a man called Squire Gordon.

A stormy day

One day in autumn Squire Gordon went on a long journey. John went

with him and I pulled the cart. The weather was rainy and windy, but we travelled happily until we came to the old wooden bridge.The man at the tollgate told us the river was rising fast.“There’s going to be a bad storm tonight,” he said.We arrived in the town, but Squire Gordon’s business took a long time. We didn’t leave until late afternoon. The wind was blowing, making a terrible sound. Suddenly we heard a crack, and a huge tree fell across the road in front of us. I stopped still. I was shaking with fear, but I did not turn round or run away.“We must go back to the crossroads,” said John, “and drive six miles to the wooden bridge.”When we got there it was nearly dark. There was water on the middle of the bridge, but the Squire did not stop. As soon as my feet touched the bridge I knew that something was wrong. I stopped dead. “Go on, Beauty,” said the Squire.“There’s something wrong, sir,” said John. He got out and tried to lead me forward.

“Come on, Beauty,” he said. But I knew that the bridge was not safe.Just then the man saw us. “Hey there! Stop!” he cried.“What is it?” shouted the Squire.“The bridge is broken in the middle,” he answered. “If you go on to it, you are all going to drown in the river.”“Thank God!” said the Squire. “Thank you, Beauty!” said John.We turned around and went along the road by the river. For a long time no one said anything. Then John said: “Black Beauty saved our lives. He knew the bridge was dangerous.”When we returned home the Squire told Mrs Gordon, “We are all safe, thanks to Black Beauty!”That night I had good food to eat and a comfortable bed of straw. And I was glad, because I was very tired.
