39、re an office with Jimmy who lives near to me. He drives to work every day and, quite often, at the end of the day, he drives to a gym. I dont see the logic(逻辑). Its much easier to cycle to work so that you have some exercise as part of your daily routine.I wanted to persuade(劝说) him to cycle to work
40、, so I did some research on a few websites about the benefits of cycling to work. Cycling has some obvious(明显的) advantages over driving.

44、often comes to me when I am cycling.
