Dear friends,
  I used the B-spline (degree=1) method to fit the piecewise linear function
and the results are listed below.

m.glm<-glm(mark~x+poly(elevation,2)+bs(distance,degree=1,knots=c(16.13,24))
                +bs(y,degree=1,knots=c(-0.4357,-0.3202
)),family=binomial(logit),data=point)
summary(m.glm)

 I think bs(degree=1) has fitted the piecewise linear functions. Now i hope
to write the model formua for the above results, but not very sure about how
to write the correct results for *distance* and *y,* because they have three
parts .
 Logitp=12.104 + 5.815*x + 6.654*elevation - 6.755*elevation^2
           -1.291*distance1 - 10.348*distance2 - 3.53*distance3
          -6.828*y1 - 4.426*y2 - 11.216*y3
 In the above formula, distance1-3 denotes the three linear functions
for*distance
*, my problem is how to replace distace1-3 using original variable *distance
*? The same question is for *y*.
  Could anybody please show me the correct model formula according to the
above result?
 Thanks a lot.
