“Who needs a shopping mall (购物中心) if you have Taobao?” says Wang Lin,28,a writer in Beijing. Taobao ,China's largest online shopping site (网上购物网站), has become an important part of Wang Lin's life. She spends lots of money on Taobao.
A growing number of Chinese Internet users like Wang have found the joys of online shopping. Most online shoppers are students or young workers. More women shop on line than men. Clothing and home-use products are the most popular on line.
It was reported that more than 250 billion yuan, was spent on online shopping last year,80% through Taobao.
Taobao means “looking for treasure” in Chinese. People can find almost everything they need on Taobao,from clothes to books,from candies to DVD players.
“You may question the security of online shopping,” Wang Lin said, “It's very safe and convenient. Unless you receive the products from the sellers and are satisfied (满意) with them, the shop owner will not get the money. You can also get your money back if you want to return the products.”

Then I saw a young lady sitting at a piano. The way she was singing made me a little comfortable. I stood there 3, watching her playing. She noticed me. I walked over and told her how good her music sounded. M Thank you. She said. "I have been going through a hard time recently (近来),4 you've made me hopeful again. " I said to her. "I'm glad that I could help," she answered, "Why are you so5?"
“Well, my mom has lost her job, and I'm not sure what to do…”
“Did you notice the 6you were walking? Your head was down.” she said. “Don't be upset, because chances come in different ways. You should smile more.”
“Why are you playing the piano here?” I asked her with a smile. She explained (解释) that she saw a lot of unhappy people in the world and she tried to cheer them up by playing music.

China sent two astronauts into space on Monday, October 20th, 2016. Their journey marks e beginning of China's human space flight. A rocket sent a Shenzhou-11 spacecraft with astronauts Chen Dong and Jing Haipeng into space. China sent the rocket at Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center (卫星发射中心). Chen is 37 years old.
