People in Guanghzou are able to find sharing bikes almost anywhere in the city these days. Four different kinds of sharing bikes can be seen on Guangzhou roadways.They are Mobike, ofo bicycle, blue go go and Xiao Ming bike. Here are the differences between Mobike and Blue go go, which can help you choose the one that suits you best. |
Mobike Price: 1 yuan per half hour Deposit(存款): 299 yuan Advantage: Many bikes can be used because of a large coverage area. Disadvantage: Neither the bicycle saddle nor the handlebar are adjustable. Mobike has a heavier bike body. It is not suitable(合适) for women. App users need to deposit at least ten yuan in their account before they can use Mobike. |
Blue go go Price: 0.5 yuan per half hour Deposit: 99 yuan Advantage: Price per use and deposit are lower. Besides, the bike saddle(座椅) can be changed according to needs of different people. Disadvantage: There are not many bikes in Guangzhou. |
Karl: Whatever I do, I always think about if other people will laugh at me. How can I stop worrying about what they think? Jeff: My dream is to be a professuonal athlete. My dad thinks I started too late and I'll never be able to make it. He puts me down, but I want his support. What should I do? Ashley:What should I do if I failed a test? I'm afraid to tell my mom because she might get mad at me and I can't play soccer. And soccer is like the world to me. Jessica: I just moved and I'm kind of shy, so how do I make new friends? Lynn: I have some trouble in communicating with my parents. We have different ideas on many things. | A. It's better to tell your mom the truth than for her to find out another way. When you tell her, explain why you failed the test. Ask her if she can help you study in the future, so you'll do better on your tests and also have time for the soccer you love. B. Just be yourself and try not to care about what others think. The more you think about it, the worse you will feel. Always act strong and confident. Even if you are a little unsure of something, don't doubt (怀疑) your abilities to do things right. Just relax. C. You should tell him about your dream and that if you work really hard, it might happen even though you started late. The sooner you tell your dad how you feel, the sooner you'll be able to work on making your dream come true. D. You should take some exercise to prepare for the Olympic team. E. Nobody knows you at your new school. You have nothing to lose, so gather up all your courage and go over to someone who looks friendly and introduce yourself. You can ask that person about your teacher or the other kids in your class to break the ice. Good luck! F. I think you should be patient to listen to what your parents said. Because they have more experience than you. Their suggestions are good to you. G. You can make a speech in front of a mirror every day, and it will make you more confident to give a speech one day. |
Dear Linda,
My best friend Lily always hangs out with a girl who used to bully(欺凌) her. And she doesn't seem to want to be around me any more.
Lisa
Dear Lisa,
It's normal for friendships to change, and it's possible that the girl has changed over time. Instead of worrying about that, pay more attention to how your own friendship is changing. Hanging out with your friend mifht help to improve your friendship.
Dear Linda,
I often argue with my mom about my after-school hobbies. Sometimes she starts it. Sometimes I do. Anyway, I feel unhappy after arguing. What should I do?
Mike
Dear Mike,
Find a right time to talk to your mom. Tell her that you're unhappy after arguing with her and that you'd like to work out a way to avoid arguments.
Dear Linda,
I always dream dream of becoming a writer. But when I go back to reading a story I've written, it sounds boring and I don't want to finish it. Should I keep trying to write?
Nick
Dear Nick,
Every writer has been where you are--a place where nothing he writes sounds right. However, you should go on writing as much as you can. The more you practice, the better you'll get. Also, keep reading can help you learn a lot about writing.
