Choosethebestanswer(根据短文内容,选择最恰当的*)Copenhagen,oneofthe...Copenhagen, one of the world's most bicycle-friendly cities, has begun to turn its network of usual highways (公路) into bike highways in order to push more commuters (每日往返上班着) to leave their cars at home.

Copenhagen and Amsterdam are called Europe's two "bicycle capitals", Copenhagen counts more bicycles than people and cycling is so popular that its numerous bike paths (道) can become very crowded.

Traffic jams caused by bikes are usually common on the main Noerrebrogade (诺勒布洛加德街) street used by around 36,000 cyclists a day. "Copenhagen's roads are packed with people who want to ride their bicycles in all kinds of weather. You have to be careful cycling your way forward and some cyclists aren't always thoughtful," complains 22-year-old university student Lea Bresell.    "The creation of bike highways comes right on time," he adds.

If in the 1960s Danes (丹麦人) thought of the car as a sign of freedom, today the bicycle has taken its place. Bicycle has become an important part of people's life, even politicians ride bikes to work.

It is on crowded Noerrebrogade - the Busiest bicycle street in Europe, the city planners have                                             

decided to build the first Copenhagen's environmentally friendly street. The jammed bike paths will be widened to four meters on either side of the road.

"The idea is to make Noerrebrogade Europe's great cycling street". says Andreas Rochl the Copenhagen bicycle program manager who is also known as "Mr. Bike". But Rochl is not satisfied with making life easier for cyclists in the city. He wants to get people living in the countryside out of their cars and onto bikes too.

His goal is to push the percentage of countryside commuters cycling to and from the city from today's 37 percent to more than 50 percent by 2015- Within the city, 55 percent of commuters already travel by bike.

Already Copenhagen's cycling environment is better than other European capitals with its bike paths of more than 390 kilometers.
