It was a dark and cold night.The taxi driver didn't have even one passenger all day.When he went by the railway station,he saw a young man coming out with two bags in his hands.So he quickly opened the door of the car and asked,“Where do you want to go,sir?” “To Star Hotel,”the young man answered.When the taxi driver heard this,he didn't feel happy any more.He knew the young man could give him only three dollars because the hotel was not far from the railway station.But suddenly,he had an idea.He took the passenger through many streets of the big city.

    After a long time,the car arrived at the hotel at last.“You should pay me fifteen dollars,”the driver said to the young man.“What? Fifteen dollars! Do you think I'm a fool? Only last week,I took a taxi from the railway station to this same hotel and I only gave the driver thirteen dollars.I know how much I have to pay for the trip.I won't pay you one dollar more than I paid to the other taxi driver last week.”

    'Who needs a shopping mall if you have Taobao?' says Wang Lin, 28, a writer in Beijing.

    Taobao, China's largest online shopping site(网站), has become an important part of Wang Lin's life. She spends lots of money on Taobao.

    A growing number of Chinese Internet users like Wang have found the joy of online shopping. Most online shoppers are students or young workers. More women shop online than men. Clothing and home use products (产品) are the most popular online.

    It was reported that more than 250 billion yuan was spent on online shopping last year, 80% through Taobao.

    Taobao means ‘looking for treasure' in Chinese. People can find almost everything they need on Taobao, from clothes to books, from candies to DVD players.

    You may question the security (安全) online shopping. Wang Lin said, ‘It is very safe and convenient (便利). Unless you receive the products from the sellers and are satisfied with them, the shop owner will not get the money. You can also get your money back if you want to return the product.'

    Mrs. Luo is a teacher from Shaoyang. She asked her students to hand in their homework through a QR code(二维码). "⑴When students finish the homework, they keep it on Wechat. So I can check their homework everywhere using my computer or mobile phone." said Luo.

    ⑵大多数学生喜欢这种新方式，认为它有趣. "We are living in the information age. Many students like to work with computers, which makes learning more fun." said Tingting, a student of Luo's.

    "The paper is not easy to keep, but the code is easy to keep and share," Luo said, "It is worth trying to use new technology in education. Education itself is a kind of creation. ⑶I don't want my students to fall behind the times."

    ⑷然而，一些父母有担忧. They are afraid that their children will spend too much time on computers and less time communicating with teachers. But in fact, it is unnecessary. Students still need to look up information in books and write it down when they do their homework. They only use the code when they hand in their work, which doesn't take them too much time. ⑸As for teachers, it allows them to check the students' work at any time. And it is also an easy way to share homework with other students.

    Mr. Guo is a teacher from Xi'an.  He asked his students to hand in their homework through a QR code(二维码). "We spent an hour or two in class learning how to generate(使产生) the codes, and in the end everything gets easier. "Said Mr. Guo, "When students finish the homework, they keep it on WeChat. Then, each student makes his own QR code and gives it to me. So I can cheek their work anywhere using my computer or telephone. "

    The QR codes can be sent to Mr. Guo by email, QQ and WeChat. When Mr. Guo scans (扫描) his students' QR codes, their homework appears on his phone, lie finds that their homework becomes more creative, with many pictures, music and even videos.

    Mr. Guo's students like the new way and think it is interesting. "We are living in the information age. Many students like to work with computers, which makes learning more fun. "Said Tingling, a student of Mr. Guo's.

    "The paper is not easy to keep, hut the code is easy to keep and share." Mr. Guo said," It is worth trying to use new technology in education. Education itself is a kind of creation. I don't want my students to fall behind the times. "

    However, some parents are worried. They are afraid that their children will spend too much time on computers and less time communicating with teachers. But in fact, it's unnecessary. Students still need to look up information in books and write it down when they do their homework. They only use the codes when they hand in their work, which doesn't take them too much time.  Also for teachers, it allows them to cheek the students' work at any time.  And it's also an easy way to share homework with other students.

    "Never set foot in this house again!" should father." BANK!" the door closed behind me. With tears in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.

    The street lights were shining, causing rather sad-feeling. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} I don't know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. He always put his opinions on me. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} I wandered the streets, without any aim in my mind. As I walked on there were fewer and fewer people on the streets. When I finally reached the apartment where I lived, I saw that the light was still on.

    I thought to myself: Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?

    In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} All the lights were off except father's.

    Dad was always like this. He had got used to arguing with me. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} After shouting at me, he never said sorry to me. But after an argument he always came into my room secretly and made sure whether I was asleep.

    The light was still on." Am I wrong?" I whispered, maybe… With the key in hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, tears ran down my cheeks. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} Love is second to none.

A. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.

B.I wandered aimlessly.

C.I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all.

D. Maybe he didn't know how to express himself.

E.I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps.

    When I was a tiny baby crying all night, my mom sang to me and stayed by my side.

    ⑴When I was tired and hungry, she gave me food and warm arms to sleep in.

    When I was two running through the field, she made sure I was safe and kept me from danger.

    When I fell and hurt myself, ⑵给我一个拥抱并且把我举起.

    When I was seven coughing badly, she said no ice﹣cream for me.

    But I talked back loudly, ⑶I should be allowed to eat some！Give it to me now.

    When I was nine watching scary movies, she said it'd give me awful dreams. But I shouted back angrily. "I should be allowed to watch it! I'm not a baby!"

    When I was a teen going out with friends, she said, ⑷"请在十点之前回来".

    But I talked back again﹣"I should not be told what to do! I' m seventeen now!"

    Now I'm an adult, thinking back to those times.

    I coughed for days after eating that ice﹣cream and had scary dreams after watching that film.

    I was late for school from staying out past ten.

    ⑸I regret talking back, not listening to mom.

    Mom knows best, and for me she wanted only the best!
