58.D

59.C

60.A【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章论述了自信车的发明和经历了一个漫长的改进历史。【56题详解】细节理解题。第二段最后一句Unfortunately,itwaseventuallybannedasadangertopedestriansandwasrarelyseenaftertheearly1820s.（不幸的是，它最终因为对行人有危险而被禁止，并在19世纪20年代初以后很少被看到。）可知早期的自行车在发明之后被禁止是因为被认为是对交通安全的威胁。故选B。【57题详解】细节理解题。第三段第二句AnimportantmilestonehappenedinParisin1863whenpedalswereaddedtothefrontaxle.（一个重要的里程碑发生在1863年的巴黎，那一年自行车踏板添加到前轴。）可知19世纪60年代，自行车踏板加入到了前轴，所以应该是驱动部分的改进。故选C。【58题详解】词义猜测题。根据上文However,manypeoplereferredtothemas“boneshakers”（然而，很多人把他们称为“摇骨器”）以及下文duetoaheavywoodenframeandsteelwheels.可知这种自行车由于其沉重的木框架和钢轮结构，被人们称为“摇骨器”，可知它很笨重。故划线部分单词意思为“笨重；沉重”。A.Stableandsafe.稳定安全；B.Easybutexpensive.简单昂贵；C.Convenientandinteresting.方便有趣；D.Heavyandawkwar
