5、ents sit in the back.Drivers Ed cars are unlike other cars in which they have two sets of brakes,one onthe driver s side and one on the other side where the instructor sits.Thus,if thestudent driver should run into difficulties the instructor can take over.The car alsohas another special feature.On

6、the top of the car is a sign that reads:STUDENTDRIVER.That lets nearby drivers know that they should use extra caution（小心）becausethe student driver is a beginning driver,not very experenced and prone to drivingslowly.After the student has passed the driver s education course and reached theappropria

12、ant degree to the qualityof the city environment.Fortunately it is no longer necessary that every lecture orevery book about this subject has to start with the proof of this idea.At presentit is generally accepted,although more as a self proved statement than on the baseof a closely reasoned scienti

13、fic proof.Recognizing the importance of greenspaces inthe city environment is a first step on the right way,this does not mean,however,thatenough details are known about the functions of greenspace in towns and about theway in which people are using these spaces.As to this subject I shall within the

14、 scopeof this lecture,enter into one aspect（方面）only,namely the recreative function ofgreenspace facilities.The theoretical separation of living,working,traffic and recreation which for manyyears has been used in town and country planning,has in my opinion resulted in moreattention for forms of recre

15、ation far from home,while there was relatively littleattention for improvement of recreative possibilities in the direct neighbourhoodof the home.We have come to the conclusion that this is not right,because an importantpart of the time which we do not pass in sleeping or working,is used for activit

16、iesat and around home.So it is obvious that recreation in the open air has to begin atthe street door of the house.The city environment has to offer as many recreationactivities as possible,and the design of these has to be such that more requiredactivities can also have recreative aspect.The very b

17、est standard of living is nothing if it is not possible to take a pleasantwalk in the district,if the children cannot be allowed to play in the streets becausethe risks of traffic are too great,if during shopping you can nowhere find a spotfor enjoying for a moment the nice weather,in short,if you o

31、and.It happened in Lytham,a town on the RiverRibble,near to the place where the river flows into the Irish Sea.The shape of thetrees along the Lytham beach road is proof of the great strength of the wind whichcomes in off the sea.It blows hard across the grass,the car-parks and the open roadbeside t

32、he river,and there is nothing to stop it.Rex White was a ship s pilot.Itwas his job to guide ships up the river,between banks of sand,into the port ofPreston.Mr White lived in a village some kilometers from the coast,so he had to driveto Lytham and leave his car in one of the car-parks beside the ri

35、t get the engine to sart.It was a cold and windy night;there was no one about,and here was no garage open towhich he could turn for help.He was just about to give up,and spend the rest of thenight on the back seat of the car,when he had a bright idea.He pushed his car roundso that it was facing in t

36、he direction of the wind,opened all four doors,pushed italong a short way,and then jumped in.The doors acted like sails,and in no time thewind had taken him right out of the car-park,and away down the beach road.When hetried the starter-switch once more,the engine roared to life immediately.All he h

37、adto do then was to stop the car and shut the doors.He went to bed later than usual,but he did not go without his cup of hot chocolate.MrWhite was not a seaman for nothing.70.We can tell how strong the wind is along the beach road,by.A.the way the river flows into the Irish SeaB.the fact that the op
