bicycle,invented in Germany in 1818 was
nothing like our bicycles e it
was made of
wood,it wasn’t very strong nor did it have
then,however,numerous improvements have made
it one of the most popular means of
transportation around the world.

blacksmith,invented a much better

machine had iron-covered wheels to keep them from
getting worn
also used foot-operated
levers,similar to pedals,so his bicycle could be
ridden at a quick didn’t look much like the
modern bicycle,though,because
its back wheel
was larger than its front gh Macmillan’s bicycles
could
be ridden easily,they were never
produced in large 1861,Frenchman Pierre
Michaux and his brother Ernest invented a
bicycle with an improved pedal mechanism.

参考范文
The first bike invented in 1818 was quite
different from the one today,and since
then it
has been improved constantly.(要点1)Twenty-one years
later,it began to have
types with iron rims
and in 1861 it was equipped with crank
mechanism.(要点2)Then in
1871,a gear was added
to its pedals and its wheels turned into wire
spokes which
reduced the
weight.(要点3)Finally,in 1874 a chain was attached
to its pedals,by which
time it looked like the
bike today.(要点4)
