    Riding in the air

    In movies,we sometimes see cars flying(飞行)in the sky. But now we can see them in real life as well. A US company made a flying motorcycle(摩托车)called Speeder. It is the world's first flying motorcycle.

    Speeder doesn't have wheels(轮子)like other motorcycles. It has a touch screen(触摸屏). Riders can turn the motorcycle around by touching the screen. Riders can also use the screen to talk to people on the ground.

    According to the company's official website,Speeder can fly as high as 4,500 m above ground. Speeder has four engines(引擎). It can fly at a speed of 240 km per hour. That's much faster than a car. Speeder runs on diesel fuel(柴油)and can fly for 10 to 22 minutes. In the future,the company will use clean energy to run Speeder.
