Instead, it goes through Alipay, which keeps your money for a while. After you receive your goods and click the confirm receipt button, Alipay then gives the money to the seller.The process is called third party online payment. There is a transfer station, or a third account, between sellers and buyers to make online shopping safe. Buyers dont need to worry about paying for goods and then receiving nothing. Sellers also get rid of the risk of receiving no money after sending out goods.These transfer stations are usually set up by payment service companies such as Alipay, Tenpay and Yeepay. Among them, Alipay is the biggest in China. It has more than 270 million active users, according to Xinhua.While most online sellers and shoppers like the third party online payment system, banks are not very happy. That is because companies like Alipay are fighting over money with the banks. Users can invest in financial products through Alipay and make money. Thus lots of people choose to put money in Alipay rather than in banks.But WeChat payment is not the same. WeChat doesnt have its own account. When paying through WeChat, the buyers money goes directly to the sellers. Thats why so many people are excited about receiving and handing out red envelopes or gift money to their friends on WeChat,Whether Alipay or WeChat payment, they are all trying to attract more users and make online shopping easier. These two companies are also promoting payments through fingerprints. New payment methods such as quick response codes have become popular too.22 .

They are placing chickens at fixed points all along their 2,500 km border (边境) with the United States of America.Its not a joke, nor have the Canadians gone mad. They are using these chickens to see if the West Nile virus (病毒) is still around. The virus infects birds, so the chickens have a chance of catching the virus and fall ill. The West Nile virus is spread among humans. It killed seven people in New York last year.Countries around the world are realizing that it may just be possible to stop certain kinds of people from entering their land. However, it is very difficult to stop viruses traveling from one end of the earth to another. When they travel to new places, they get used to the environment very easily and sometimes start destroying the local plant and animal life. These biological polluters are called smart polluters.These smart polluters can be carried across borders of countries unknowingly. Just as we humans are travelling across the world more often than earlier, these biological polluters have also started journey much more. They slide into airplanes through their wheels. They dig into objects that travelers may be carrying from one country to another.There are some good examples of how these polluters work. The water hyacinth (水葫芦) of South America is blocking lakes in China and Africa. Tree snakes from Papua New Guinea are busy eating up some birds in the country of Guam, which breaks its natural balance.Thats why the customs (海关) officials in many foreign countries prevent people from bringing in a small plant, or an object made of wood that is in its natural form. The customs officials have these rules because these varieties (多样性) of plants are special to certain places. The plants have the power to spread new illnesses among native plants and animals. Biological polluters always create problems in places where they do not belong. They could be special varieties of plants, bugs or even animals.27 . Why are Canadian officials placing chickens along the border?ATo help clean up the border.BTo see if the virus is still around.CTo protect the chickens from falling ill.DTo make sure that the birds can find food.28 . Which of the following is TRUE?APeople find it difficult to travel from one place to another.BPlants always create problems in places where they belong.CBiological polluters may destroy the local plant and animal life.DViruses spend a long time getting used to the local environment.29 . Customs officials in many countries prevent people from bringing in _.AchocolatesBshoesCpicturesDplants30 .
