With rapid development of technology and the Internet, new methods and ecological (生态的) ideas provide more possibilities for the Chinese to read. The newly national reading report shows that 80 percent of Chinese adults read books, newspapers or magazines in 2018, a year-on-year increase. Prevailing(盛行的) digital(数字的) readingThe growth of digital reading has made reading more popular among the Chinese. According to a survey, about 76 percent said they had accessed(访问) content through digital channels. Chen Chengpei, an office worker in Xiamen City loves reading on his mobile phone app in his spare time. He thinks its so easy to kill the spare minutes. Mobile phone reading has become the main channel for him to get information. He has downloaded seven news apps, through which he reads for one or two hours a day. Listening to audiobooks has become a new growth point in terms of reading habits. Zhang Jin from Beijing likes reading 40 minutes on his mobile while going to work on the bus in the morning, and listening to audiobooks on the way home. According to Ximalaya, 16. 9 percent of its total users listen to its audiobooks. To attract more users, the mobile app allows users to vote for the book they hope to listen to most. The audio app tries to meet their needs. Li Yang, a student in Beijing, used to be worried by piles of books as her house is too small. The problem was solved when she started to sell the used books on an online second-hand bookstore Deja Vu. By selling them, most of my books which used to gather dust in the corner can come to life again. she said.According to a survey by giant Alibaba in 2018, the market for the second-hand book was booming last year as more Chinese tend to trade or exchange their used books online. The rise of online second-hand book platforms and sharing ideas also contributed to the booming book recycling. Users are able to sell their books by scanning the barcode(扫条形码)of books and then wait for the courier(快递员) to collect them. The collected books will be cleaned, disinfected (消毒) and packed before selling to other readers at a lower price. According to Deja Vu, its total users hit l. 4 million in 2018, with 2 million used books being sold. It has a daily business of 20,000 books. When I see my books being read by others, I can feel a pleasure of sharing, which is really amazing. LiYang said. （1）From the first paragraph, we know that .
