There has been a lot of talk about Chinese bicycle-sharing recently. Shared bikes are nowadays becoming the center of attention in our Wechat friend circle. Many of our friends post photos of themselves riding bikes, especially during the weekend in natural parks, and we can see people logging in and out of shared bike apps. But are people really drawn to（被…所吸引）the idea of exercise and green transportation all of a studden?

Some people have tried Mobikes lately, and they didn’t particularly like Mobikes. They think the first generation Mobikes, the ones without baskets, are designed for athletes. They are vary hard to ride, and the seat is not adjustable（可調(diào)節(jié)的）. Then, they tried the yellow Ofo bikes. They are easier to ride than Mobikes, but they don’t usually have baskets, and you need to enter the password by hand, instead of scanning a QR code and having the lock open automatically like with Mobikes.

We appreciate that there are shared bikes on the roads. They have saved us a lot of time during emergency situations, and on beautiful, clear days. We do enjoy riding them outside the city. But from what we’ve seen in our friend circles, people have been giving them endless praises, while we still saw some obvious flaws（缺陷）.

In our experience, there has never been a unanimous（一致的）decision on anything in public opinion. It makes us wonder whether these people really like riding shared bikes or are just saying this to agree with others. When we asked them individually, a friend of us, Lisa, secretly told us she tried the bikes to fit in（融入朋友圈）. She doesn’t like bikes and finds city’s roads too harsh（擁堵）for bike riding. But the only way to hang out（出去閑逛）with her friends was riding out of town together. To join in social activities, she had to pick up bike riding again. Another young man, Simon admitted that he started talking about and forwarding information（轉(zhuǎn)發(fā)信息）on thared bikes to appear cool and fashionable to friends. He started paying attention when Mobikes first launched（推出）. These views will give us something new to think about when we ride bikes again.

【題目】

There is an old saying：one good turn deserves another. It means you do a helpful or kind act for someone who has done something good for you. Denson is a mechanic（機(jī)修工），but he lost his job a few months ago. He is kind and helpful, but always feared applying for a new job.

One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment was at 10 a.m. and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre（輪胎）of his car. Obviously（很顯然）there was something wrong with the ear. Denson immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Denson finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Denson said there was no need to pay him and he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said,“Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please, I insist.”Denson agreed.

On arrival, Denson found a long line of applicants（求職人）waiting to be interviewed. Denson still had some grease（油脂）on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed looks on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked,“Do you really need to be interviewed?”Denson’s heart sank.“With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?”he thought to himself. Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Denson’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Manager of the company.“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as a member of the company before you even stepped into the office. I just know you’d be a trustworthy（值得信賴的）worker. Congratulations!”Denson sat down and they shared a cup of coffee as he landed himself a new job.
