男And now some local news. From next Monday, the city's new bike-hire scheme opens to the public. There will be three hundred bikes at forty stations around the city centre. To use the bikes, you'll first need to download the City Bikes app. The first thirty minutes of every ride are free, and after that it costs one pound for each hour. The bikes are electric, so they're easy to ride up the hills on the north side of the city. Riders must be at least sixteen years old. Helmets aren't provided, so please bring your own. The council hopes the scheme will reduce traffic, and if it's popular, more stations will open next spring.
接下來是地方新聞。從下週一開始，市區新的租借單車計畫開放民眾使用。市中心四十個站點共有三百輛單車。要使用單車，得先下載「城市單車」App。每次騎乘前三十分鐘免費，之後每小時一英鎊。單車是電動的，騎上城北的山坡也很輕鬆。騎乘者至少要十六歲。不提供安全帽，請自備。市議會希望這個計畫能減少車流，如果受歡迎，明年春天會再開更多站點。

男How did it start?
是怎麼開始的？
女My laptop broke while I was at university, and the shop said it would be cheaper to buy a new one. My uncle, who's an engineer, fixed it in twenty minutes. I thought: how many things do we throw away that only need a small repair?
