①The well-known “new great inventions” of modern China have made our lives more convenient.

②High-speed trains

China built its first high-speed railway line in 2008. Since then, the number of passenger trips has grown by over 30 percent every year. By 2016 more than 5 billion trips had been taken on the trains. By 2020 one-fifth of the country’s 150,000-km railway network will be used by the trains. This network will link more than 80 percent of major cities across China.

③Mobile payment

Mobile payment is turning China into a “cashless society”. Instead of paying by cash.(现金) customers now pay for their goods and some kinds of bills simpily by typing a short password（密码）into the Alipay or Wechat Pay app on their mobile phones.

④Shared bikes        

China has surprised the world with how quickly shared bikes are widely used. Nowadays bike users can simply pick up or park the bike on the street through GPS and smart phone apps. China’s two leading bike sharing companies Mobike and Ofo have been opening their overseas markets in Singapore, the UK and the United States.

⑤Online shopping

With around 751 million Internet users,   China has been the world’s largest and latest growing online shopping market. Because of lower costs and fewer licensing requirements, it's easier for sellers to open an online shop in China. In 2016 more than 20 million jobs of rural areas were given with over 8.1 million running their own online shops.
