The first such service was launched in June 2015 by a startup called Ofo. The company now has around 2.5m yellow-framed bikes in more than 50 cities in China. Its main rival, Mobike, which started up only a year ago, says it has ―several million‖ of its orange-wheeled bikes spread across a similar area. Bluegogo has half a million bikes in six Chinese cities. It plans to add a new city every two weeks.
However, the dockless system is easy to abuse. Some riders hide the bikes in or near their homes to prevent others from using them. Another trick involves scratchingoff a bike’s QR code to stop others from scanning it. A bigger problem for the new firms is persuading people to use bikes instead of cars. Thirty years ago, 63% of Beijingers cycled to work. Now, only 12% do. Many people think that cycling is only for the poor. A dating-show contestant famously said in 2010 that she would ―rather cry in a BMW than smile on a bike.‖Cycling is also dangerous. About 40% of road accidents involve bicycles, according to a report in 2013. Some city authorities accuse the bike-sharing firms of causing congestion. This month, the southern city of Shenzhen ordered limits on the number of shared bikes. Other cities, including Shanghai and Beijing, are considering similar measures.
Despite some disadvantages, such user-friendly services represent the kind of green innovation that China wants and may even bring ―a revolution‖.

Question 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.
SAN FRANCISCO—Authorities in Northern California said on Tuesday that a woman and her boyfriend charged with killing her 3-year-old daughter stored the girl’s body in a suitcase and inside a freezer.
Sara Krueger and her boyfriend, Ryan Scott Warner, put little Kayleigh Slusher's body in a suitcase and then placed her body in a freezer, Napa police Capt. JeffTroendly said.
―Investigators learned through interviews with the suspects that the girl’s body was kept in a suitcase at one point and then a freezer,‖ Troendly said. ―We believe that they are responsible for the death of Kayleigh Slusher.‖
Krueger, 23 and Warner, 26, were charged with murder and hitting on a child resulting in death, Napa County District Attorney Gary lieberstein announced Tuesday.
Neither Krueger nor Warner spoke for themselves as a judge appointed them lawyers during their first appearance in court Tuesday. The couple is accused of killing Kayleigh on Jan.30, 2014, the day after Napa
police officers visited their apartment to check on the girl, according to a criminal complaint filed Tuesday. Krueger and Warner are each being held in jail without bail. They are due back in court on Feb. 25. 11. What did the couple do to their three-year-old daughter? 12. When was the girl killed?
13. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
Question 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
Most people who start working out in hopes of shedding pounds would be disappointed; many scientists have found that without major changes to diet, exercise typically results in only modest weight loss at best.
To reach that conclusion, the Danish scientists rounded up a group of heavy young men. The volunteers, most in their 20s or early 30s, visited the scientists' lab to undergo health check. None had high blood pressure or heart disease and, while heavy, they were not very fat.
The men were then randomly assigned to exercise or not. The non-exercisers returned to their former routines, with no change to their diets. A second group began 13 weeks of almost daily moderate exercise, consisting ofjogging, cycling or otherwise sweating for about 30 minutes. A third group tackled a more intense routine of almost hour-long workouts.
The men were asked not to consciously change their diets, and to keep detailed daily food diaries throughout the 13 weeks. At the end of the 13 weeks, the members of the non-exercise group weighed the same as they had at the start, which is hardly surprising. On the other hand, the men who had exercised the most, working out for 60 minutes a day, had managed to drop some weight, losing an average of five pounds each, about 20 percent less than would have been expected. Considering the number of calories the men were consuming each day during exercise. Meanwhile, the volunteers who'd worked out for only 30 minutes a day did considerably better, shedding about seven pounds each. 14. What have many scientists found?
15. What do we learn about the experiment participant?
16. What do we learn about the result of the scientists’ experiment?
Question 17 through 20 are based on the following passage.
M: I’m phoning up about this job you’ve advertised in this paper, this uh, young sales manager. W: Oh, yes.
M: I’d like to apply for it. Would you send me an application form? W: No, you simply send in a written application, a letter. M: Can you tell me a bit more about the job?
W: Well, we are really looking for some who isn't too concerned about working fairly long hours. M: What do you mean by long hours?
W: This is a job which does as the advertisement says have travel possibilities and very often one would be away at weekends, for instance.

M: Oh, what kind of money are you paying then?
W: Well, this is to be negotiated. Oh. It depends partly on your experience and education. Perhaps you can tell me briefly what that is. M: I've just left school and got A-level in geography. W: Oh, 1 see.
M: And it's the travel that appeals to me. That's why I'm inquiring about the job. W: Yes, I see. What sort of salary were you thinking in terms OP
M: starting off, I thought it would be something of 500 pounds a week.
