Among them, four stand out. They are known as four new great inventions of modern China. They have made our daily lives more convenientHigh-speed trainsChina created 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 Chinas bullet trains(高铁), according to Xinhua News Agency.China is currently working on the next-generation bullet trains that will have a top speed of 400kilometers per hour. By 2020, one-fifth of the countrys 150,000-km railway network will be used by high-speed trains. This network will link more than 80percent of major cities across China, said Xinhua.Mobile paymentMobile payment is turning China into a cashless society led by third-party payment companies like Alipay. For example, instead of paying y cash, customers now pay for goods simply by typing a short password into Alipay app on their mobile devices.Users can also pay their bills through Alipay, such as their water and electricity bills. Alipay also supports cross-border(跨境的)online and in-store payment, which allows users to buy things on international websites and apps.Shared bikesShared bike services started in Western countries. But China has surprised the world with how quickly it has adopted dockless(无桩的)shared bikes.Unlike traditional bike-sharing method, dockless bikes allow users to simply pick up or park a bike on the street through GPS and smartphone To unlock a bike, you just need to scan a QR code on a shared bike with a smartphone app After you finish riding, you can park it at available parking areas, lock it and pay for ride through mobile payment services.Online shoppingWith around 751 million internet users, China has long been the worlds largest and fastest-growing online shopping market.Online shopping now accounts for 15.5 percent of total retail sales in China, according to Xinhua. Thanks to lower costs and fewer licensing requirements(执照要求),its easier for sellers to open an online shop in China than a brick-and-mortar shop(实体店)。It also helped to create jobs of rural areas. In 2016, online shopping created more than 20 million jobs in rural areas, with over 8.1 million running their own online shops, said Xinhua.（1）What is known as four new great inventions” of modern China?_（2）When did China create its first high-speed railway line?_（3）How do customers pay for goods if they dont pay by cash?_（4）What do people need to do to unlock a shared bike?_（5）Why is it easier for sellers to open an online shop in China than a brick-and-mortar shop?_（6）Which of the four inventions has influenced your life most?
