New Yorkers are gradually getting used to more bicyclers on those hot blue City Bikes.But what about local bike shops？Is City Bike rolling up riders at their expense？At Gotham Bikes in Tribeca，manager W．Ben said the shop has seen an increase in its overall sales due to the bikeshare program.“It’s getting more people on the road，” he said.James Ryan，an employee at Danny’s Cycles，said City Bike is a good option for people to ease in a city famous for its traffic jams.“They can try out a bike without buying one.” he said.
Rentals are not a big part of the business at either Gotham Bikes or Danny’s Cycles.But for Frank’s Bike Shop，a small business on Christopher St.，the bikeshare program has been bad news.Owner Frank Arroyo said his rental business has decreased by 90% since City Bike was rolled out last month.Arroyo’s main rental customers are European tourists，who have since been drawn away by City Bikes.
However，Ben said the bikeshare is good for bike sales at his shop.“People have used the bikeshare and realized how great it is to bike in the city，then decide that they want something nicer for themselves，” he noted.Andrew Crooks，owner of NYC Velo，at 64 Second Ave，said at first he was concerned about bikeshare，though，he admitted，“I was happy to see people on bikes.It seemed like a great idea，but one that would be difficult to implement(实施)．”Crooks said he worried about inexperienced riders’ lack of awareness of biking rules and strong negative reaction from noncyclists.“However，” he said，“it’s still too early to tell if his business has been impacted.” While it’s possible that bikeshare will cause a drop in business，Crooks thought that the idea was a positive step forward for New York City.

I was twentytwo，and in Bolivia.I’d been to every other country in South America，and now I was set on getting into Chile，the last on the list.

So I walked into the mountains，feeling excited，and came to a sign with the word “Chile” on it.A frightening soldier appeared，stuck a gun in my back，and pushed me down a slope to the police station.The police chief then told me，“There’s nothing for you here.” I explained that I had come to see this beautiful country.But he was annoyed.
In the evening they filled me with food.There was laughter，and I was less tense.Then the police chief took me to a tiny cell.I lay down on the mattress(垫子)．Even though I had no light and none of my possessions，I felt euphoric.At least I had arrived！And what a story I’d have to tell！The next morning I was released，and I was told that Chile didn’t want me.Throwing my belongings into my backpack，I shouted and screamed at the soldiers.After all this effort I was being sent home！I stomped(以重踏步方式走) towards Bolivia expecting to feel a bullet.But I’d be back！I told myself.

Stone Soup is an international magazine.

Twentytwo years ago，my colleague Gerry and I started Stone Soup，along with a group of fellow university students.

We draw on child artists from all over the world to show their arts in the magazine.Over the years our interest in children’s art has grown.In addition to publishing children’s art，we have built one of the finest collections of children’s art in the United States.

As the picture shows，many people enjoy playing with their mobile phones even when they are walking，riding a bike or driving a car.Such phenomenon deserves our attention.
Being addicted to playing with mobile phones is harmful to us.First，if we spend too much time on them，we are likely to ignore the people around us.As a matter of fact，many young people lack the communication skills to develop a pleasant relationship with others.Besides，it is dangerous to play with mobile phones while walking，riding or driving，which is a main cause of road accidents.
It is time to reflect on our behavior.The mobile phone is designed to help us communicate with others conveniently，not to spoil our life.
