Christy knew that Roosevelt Park had a clean, lively creek（小溪） 7 through it. 12 miles of land around the creek was 8 used. Christy decided to get together with other trail 9 to ask the city council to 10 a bike path along the unused land. Christy 11  a petition (请愿书). She and other riders asked all of their biking friends if they would 12 the list, and they gathered 300 signatures. The city council evaluated the 13 and, more 14 , agreed to allow the bike trail. The 15 took two months of work, and now Roosevelt Park has a 16 bike trail. It has many ups and downs; it is a great ride. This trail is becoming one of the community’s important 17 spots. I can’t 18 with Christy when we ride together, but I am glad that she decided to work hard to begin the 19 of the Roosevelt Park bike path.
