Annie had a hard time. She was busy cooking, cleaning, and caring for her kids. When Annie heard that two men were going to pay ten thousand dollars for the first woman who pedaled (骑行) around the world, she knew she had to try.

Annie was born in Latvia, but luckily she learned English well when she came to America. Now the mother of three was going to do something that no woman did before. She had to learn pedaling first. Again, she tried her best.
Unit 7 Be wise with money
On June 25, 1894, Annie started from Massachusetts State House in Boston. With only some dollars in her pocket, Annie went down Beacon Hill on her bike. Outside the city, Annie’s bike went over uneven (不平整的) roads. Some days she only had an apple to eat. Some nights she slept on the ground.
92 days later, Annie came into Chicago. Because of her heavy dress, she only covered one thousand miles, with 24 thousand miles still to go. It was already mid-September. The weather was turning colder. If she tried to cross Rocky Mountains, she may die (死). But Annie didn’t stop.
Women all over the country knew her story from local newspapers and wanted her to win the money.
