These days China has surprised the world with its new great inventions —— high-speed railways, Alipay(支付宝), shared bicycles and online shopping.

Lin Jinlong, a student from Cambodia enjoys his life in China and says, “my wallet is not used anymore. I can buy and eat whatever I want just with a tap(轻敲) of my phone. Even fruit sellers are using Alipay.” He laughed, “We can also order food at home, super fast and easy, but when I was in Cambodia, I had to go outside.”

Another student from Cambodia, Wu Mei, shared her experience of taking Chinese high-speed railway. It only takes half an hour from Beijing to Tianjin. For the same distance, people in Cambodia may spend three hours sitting on the train because there are only two railways.

Bernhard Schwartlander, World Health Organization Representative(世界卫生组织代表) in China is very excited about China’s bike-sharing. In his opinion, shared bikes are bringing bikes to people’s lives and they are making people start to use public transport(公共交通) such as buses and trains more often in modern time. “Also as we all know, it could mean a lot to our environment.” He explained.

It’s clear that China is developing fast and no longer copying western ideas. In fact, she is leading the world in many ways. Products and services have improved people’s experience, playing an important part in world economy(经济).

I used to skate a lot. With every Olympic song, I found an excitement growing inside me when I was first to skate at the age of five. But, unluckily, I was badly hurt in a match. I quickly stopped my skating. Smiling, my husband just said, “Skating is your passion (酷爱),but of course we can stay at home.”

It was crazy, I know, that a thirty-seven-year-old mother of two children wanted to skate under disco ball lights after 10 years. I found the excitement growing inside me. I loved to skate. So I was out there having the time of my life,listening to the music with a smile on my face and heart. I hoped I could skate again.

I belonged here. It was so right to be back on the ice.

“Did you use to be a skater?”A little girl looked up at me with questioning eyes. Taking time to give my answer,I looked around the rink (溜冰场),where I could see so many years of lessons,Olympic dreams,and a love of the ice would never die. “No,”I answered,“I'm a skater.” With a smile,I glided away.

Skating had finally turned me into a champion——a winner of a lifelong passion for favorite sport.
