After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike regular gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, stand-alone rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every four-square-meter room is equipped with a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. There’s no shower or washbasin.
Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by smartphone application, book a room in advance and then need to scan (扫描) a QR code for use. A refundable deposit (保证金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 0.2 yuan per minute.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within two weeks since it was founded, the company has already got two rounds of funding valued over 100 million yuan, Yicai Global reports. The idea of the shared fitness experience is not entirely nascent. Last December, the Shanghai-based technology company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident investors are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Center published a report which predicts that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to contribute around 10% to the country’s GDP by 2020.

A.Offering open spaces. B.Standing in the living zone.
C.Holding one person at a time. D.Having some advanced equipment.
2.What can we learn about the shared gym room from the text?
A.Users can have a shower in it after exercise.
B.Users who want to use it need a smartphone.

D.Users’ privacy can’t be protected while they are exercising.
3.What does the underlined word “nascent” probably mean in Paragraph 5?

4.What is the author’s purpose of writing the text?

The smiling face of Santa Claus appears all across China.Local governments are decorating trees and lamp posts with lights and ornaments.At first glance,visitors would think they were in Europe.
Despite the fact that most Chinese are not Christians,Christmas season has become increasingly popular.
"If you walked around major Chinese cities 15 years ago,you wouldn`t have seen many signs of Christmas.However,if you were to visit those same Chinese cities again today,you’d be surprised to see signs of Christmas almost everywhere," says Cai Jiming,a professor with Tsinghua University,who has served as an expert in developing China`s holiday schedule.
Although Christmas is not a public holiday,many Chinese cities are still getting into the Christmas spirit.
Cai says his e-mail inbox and cell phone have been flooded with messages wishing him a merry Christmas.The greetings have been coming in since the end of November.
In his view,Christmas seems like a "warm-up" for the truly important coming month-long Spring Festival.
However,despite the prevalence (流行)of Christmas celebrations,for most Chinese,it neither means a religious celebration nor an occasion for family reunions.Instead,it is a time for relaxing with friends,a time to shop,a time to have a party and it is especially a time for romance.
"I expect my boyfriend to take me out on Christmas Eve and I expect a romantic night," says Christine Zhou,28,a hotel manager in Beijing."It seems to me that everything associated with Christmas time is romantic."
On the streets,rose and chocolate peddlers are vying (竞争)for their business.
Christmas has become another Valentine`s Day,and at the same time,more people feel it is a time to reward themselves with good food and a good time.
However,as more Chinese join in the Christmas celebrations each year,some feel the Western-based festival is harming time-honored traditions.
But Cai considers it is unnecessary to boycott (抵制)a Western cultural festival."All important festivals in different cultures have now developed into universal holidays," he says.”
1.From the first paragraph,we know________.
A.Christmas has become the most important festival in China
B.Christmas is celebrated by a great number of people in China

2.Professor Cai Jiming’s words in the third paragraph are used to________.
A.show he is a famous expert in China’s holiday schedule
B.prove Tsinghua University is the best university in China
C.prove Christmas season has become more and more popular
D.show great changes have taken place in China
3.Christmas celebrations for Chinese people mean_____.
A.a religious celebration.
B.an occasion for family to get together.
C.a lover’s celebration.

OK, so it's not a real war but the U. S. and China are at the beginning of a trade war thanks to President Trump's policy. The Chinese government raised $34 billion in new duties on goods exported from the U,S. last week in answer to President Trump's unwise tariffs(关税) of $34 billion on Chinese goods.
Farm and seafood-producing states are going to be hit hardest by China's new tariffs on U. S. goods. States where cars are made and shipped to China are on the hook as well.
In terms of value, some 38 percent of products on the tariff list are agricultural, including soybeans, sorghum, tobacco and meat. That's nothing like good news for farm-belt states, primarily in the Midwest like Iowa.
A wide range of seafood is on China's tarifflist. That could hurt fishery workers in Alaska and lobster(龙虾) harvesters in Maine. Alaska, for example, exported nearly $lbillion worth of seafood to China. "China is a major market for Alaska seafood," said Alexa Tonkovich, Executive Director of the Alaska Seafood Marketing Institute. "The seafood industry directly employs nearly 60,000 workers in Alaska each year and directly employs more workers than any other private industry."
And automaking States, particularly in the South, are also at risk. Some 24 percent ofproducts on the list- in terms of value-are cars, trucks and other vehicles. Michigan alone exported $1.7 billion worth of motor vehicles and vehicle parts to China in 2017. Other states being affected include South Carolina, where BMW makes SUVs for both the U.S. and export, and Alabama, home to Mercedes-Benz, Toyota, Honda and Hyundai factories.
This round of tariffs spares some industries, like commercial aircraft. Washington State could breathe a sigh of relief, which is home to Boeing. It also, for the moment, skips tariffs on chemical products.
Alexa Tonkovich has warned the U.S. government that the trade war could risk jobs, reduce industry profits, and cause higher prices for consumers in the U.S!
1.What does the underlined phrase "on the hook" mean?
A. Caught in a difficult situation. B. Lost in deep thought.
C. Delighted in their luck. D. Stuck in the traffic jams.
2.Which state will be hurt the least on this round oftariffs?
A. Iowa B. Maine
C. Michigan. D. Washington
3.What is Alexa Tonkovich's attitude towards the trade war?
A. Approving. B. Opposed.
C. Objective. D. Sympathetic
4.Which ofthe following shows the development ofideas in the text?
I: Introduction P:Point Sp: Siib—point(次要点) C:Conclusion
A. B.
C. D.
