14.Thousands of taxi drivers in Shenyang,Liaoning Province,reportedly blocked (阻碍) streets with their cars on Sunday in protest (抗议) against unlicensed (无执照的) cars using taxi-hiring apps (打车软件) and apps-based car rental (出租) companies providing passenger services,including high-end (高端的) cars.Although the drivers also complained about the withdrawal (退出) of the fuel subsidy (燃油补贴) by the authority (管理部门),their main complaint was to make the authority aware of the loss of business because of the rising number of Internet-based car service companies.It is not yet clear how Shenyang will deal with the problem and whether it will declare (宣布) the services offered by market leaders such as Didi Dache,a taxi-hiring app provider backed (支持) by Tencent Holdings (腾讯控股),and Kuaidi Dache illegal.But Shanghai has set a rule to ban Didi Zhuanche,or car services offered by Didi Dache from December on.
On Wednesday,news came that Beijing will take measures to stop the illegal"taxi business"of private cars through the newly rising Internet apps,following the footsteps of Shanghai and Nanjing.
Such acts will cause a setback (挫折) to the car-hiring companies and investors.Just last month,Didi Dache got $700million fund (基金) from global investors,including Singapore state investment company Temasek Holdings,Russian investment company DST Global and Tencent.Besides,the market is uncertain that Kuaidi Dache is about to finish its latest round of funding after getting 800million from global investors.
Uncertain regulatory (监管),however,could affect the future of the Internet-based car-hiring services,which have become popular in most of China's big cities.To be fair,these companies'business model is anything but bad.For example,Didi Zhuanche works side by side with car rental companies to provide high-end car service mainly for business people through the Internet and mobile phone apps.
Every link in this business model chain has legal companies and services.Therefore,it is hard to define (下定义) it as illegal and ban it.
32.Why did taxi drivers in Shenyang block the streets with their cars?A
A.Because they wanted to make their main complaints known to the authority.
B.Because they wanted the authority to continue the fuel subsidy.
C.Because they wanted to be taught how to use the taxi-hiring apps.
D.Because they wanted to appeal to passengers not to hire the private cars.
33.The author's attitude to banning internet car-hiring service isC.
A.positive
B.neutral
C.negative
D.unclear
34.We can learn from the passage thatD.
A.Shenyang has already forbidden apps-based car rental companies
B.Shanghai won't ban Didi Zhuanche
C.it is quite easy to picture the apps-based car rental companies illegal
D.some international investment companies have strong faith in the future of apps-based car rental companies
35.Where can the passage probably appear?C
