B Almost none of us have the time to read everything we'd like to read. Yet we lose countless hours to daily activities that bring us little joy like taking buses and waiting in line. What if we could turn these little blocks of unoccupied time into precious and rewarding moments for learning and thinking? Founded in 2012,iReader,a micro-learning app on mobile phones, brings the biggest ideas from best-selling books through 15-minute audio （音频）and text.

A. iReader Prevents Reading from Dying B. iReader Unites Worldwide Book-lovers C. iReader: The Best New App Creation D. iReader: Big Ideas in Small Packages C 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 smart phone apps, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code for use. A refundable deposit (退款保证金）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 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. 8. What makes the shared gym room different from the regular one? A. Holding one person at a time. B. Standing in the living communities. C. Offering open spaces. D. Having connections to the Internet. 9. What can we learn about the shared gym room from the text? A. Users who want to use it need a smart phone. B. Users can have a shower in it after exercise. C. Users who use it first need to pay 99. 2 yuan. D. Users' privacy can't be protected while exercising. 10.What does the underlined word "nascent" probably mean in Paragraph 5? A. simple. B. new. C. satisfying. D. popular. 11. What is the author's purpose of writing the text? A. To predict the future of the sharing economy. B. To advertise a technology company. C. To introduce shared gym rooms. D. To support the sharing economy. D My friend, Emma Daniels, spent the summer of 1974 traveling in Israel. During her month-long stay in Jerusalem she often went to a café called Chocolate Soup. It was run by two men, one of whom—Alex—used to live in Montreal. One morning when Emma went in for coffee, while chatting with her new friend Alex, she mentioned that she had just finished the book she was reading and had nothing else to read. Alex said he had a wonderful book she might like, and that he’d be happy to lend it to her. As he lived just above the café, he quickly ran up to get it. The book he handed to Emma just minutes later was Markings, a book by a former Secretary—General of the United Nations (UN). Emma had never read it, nor had she ever bought a copy. But , when she opened it up, she was floored to see her own name and address inside the cover in her own handwriting(笔迹).
