In the video, young people from 20countries along Belt and Road Routes（一带一路）were asked to name great inventions that had influenced their lives in China. The following is what they said:

Justin	I’m from Romania. China is really a great country and its high-speed railways are very fast, convenient and tidy. It takes me only about 6 hours from Beijing to shanghai by train. It saves a lot of time and it’s cheaper than airplane. I wish we would have high-speed railways in our country someday.
Yala	I’m from Nepal. I always go out by bike.Bicycle-sharing system allows people to borrow a bike from point “A” and return it at point “B”. It’s not only cheap but also a low -carbon and healthy way of life. I like it very much .
Archana	My life in Beijing is quite different from that in India. Here in China , I seldom take money with me when I go out. I can pay for almost every-thing by Zhi Fu Bao. Oh, it’s amazing. However. In India , if you don’t take wallet with you, you’ll be in a tough spot.

【解析】

本文讲述了高铁、支付宝、共享自行车和在线支付被视为中国新的四大成就，一些外国的年轻人对这些新事物提出了自己的看法。

【1】细节理解题。根据its high-speed railways are very fast, convenient and tidy，可知，贾斯廷认为中国的高铁是非常快，方便和整洁的。故选A。

【2】细节理解题。根据Bicycle-sharing system allows people to borrow a bike from point “A”and return it at point “B”“共享单车系统允许人们从A点借车，然后在B点返还”，可知，A和B是指两个地方。故选C。

【3】词句猜测题。句前however表转折关系连词，根据前文Here in China , I seldom take money with me when I go out. I can pay for almost every-thing by Zhi Fu Bao“在中国，当我出去的时候我很少带钱。我几乎能用支付宝买所有的东西”，可知，划线处表示“然而，在印度，如果你不带钱包出门，你就会陷入困境”。be safe 是安全的；get in trouble陷入困境；stay in silence保持沉默；lose your way迷路。可知，划线处与B选项的词义是一样的。故选B。

【4】推理判断题。根据We don’t have Alipay or other online payment Apps with which I can go shopping without stepping out of the doors.I hope I could bring them back to my country，可知，在台湾没有支付宝或其他在线支付的APP软件，所以A选项是错误的。根据It’s not only cheap but also a low -carbon and healthy way of life，可知，共享单车只是便宜，并不是免费的，所以B选项是错误的。根据I can pay for almost every-thing by Zhi Fu Bao，可知，能用支付宝支付每样东西，但是并没有说支付宝是唯一的支付方式,所以C选项是错误的。根据I wish we would have high-speed railways in our country someday，可知，在罗马尼亚目前是没有高铁的，所以D选项是正确的。故选D。

【5】细节理解题。根据High-speed trains, Alipay，shared bikes and online payment are seen as the new Four Great Achievements of China by young foreigners，可知，这些标志标明，中国正在迅速发展。故选B。
