SAT Writing & Language Section Passage
SAT Writing Passage Title: Biking to Work
The daily commute to work 1 can suck the life out of a person. My commute, however, actually energizes me and keeps me in shape. I ride a bike, and except for days when the weather is too wet or too cold, I glide to work along beautiful, forested roads.
[1] Several people recommended buying a hybrid designed for commuting. [2] Others suggested I buy a mountain bike and then install road tires on 2 it [3] Mountain bikes have heavier frames than 3 people with road bikes and can tnore easily be used to carry bags containing work items. [4] 4 Thus, I was able to buy a mountain bike that was already prepared for the daily commute. [5] It came outfitted with all the commuting 5 essentials, a flashing headlamp, a flashing red tail-light, a rearview mirror, and a small rack for attaching gear. 6
Anyone who wants to commute by bike must learn some basic maintenance and 7 repair- most importantly, how to change a flat tire. I remember going to a bike shop to buy some spare inner tubes for my tires, and the owner immediately recognized me as a novice. He handed me a couple of tire levers and explained that these would prove to be very helpful. 8 I was thankful for them a couple of years later when I had a flat.
On my bike I have enjoyed beautiful weather, endured freezing cold, and 9 have been caught in sudden cloudbursts. I learned the importance of finding a facemask and a pair of thick but functional gloves, because the face and fingers get the coldest during winter. I also learned 10 how important it is to watch the weather carefully and remembering to place all electronics inside a plastic bag in my backpack in case of rain. Those 3.5 miles to and from work on my bike are not only 11 delightful and also enlightening.
