On May 15, 2018, a team of mountain climbers from Peking University reached the top of the world’s highest mountain to celebrate the university’s 120th birthday. They practiced for two years for their climb to the summit.
The team has fourteen climbers: seven students from the Mountaineering Association of Peking University (MAPKU,北大山鷹社), two teachers and five alumni(校友). The youngest of them is only twenty-one and the oldest one is in his fifties. Twelve of them made it to the summit of Mount Qomolangma, as one of the team members felt sick and another stayed in the camp to help the team when they came back from the top.
To our surprise, the first member to reach the summit was a girl named Wei Wei. It was the third time for her to reach the top of this mountain. Peking University alumnus Luang Nubo, who led the team, said, “Reaching the top of the mountain was not the only goal.” “It’s more important to know how the team work closely and fight with difficulties when climbing high. It is also the spirit of the university,” he said. Started in 1989, the MAPKU now is the most famous amateur mountaineering club (業(yè)余登山俱樂部) in China. In 1989,three members reached the 8,201-metre Mount Cho Oyu, the worlds sixth-highest mountain, to celebrate their university 100th birthday.

Most of us in China are used to paying for almost everything with our phones. But for foreign visitors who aren’t familiar with this method, it may seem strange.
Lim May, a girl who comes from Singapore studies in Shanghai, said once she was waiting in line to buy breakfast in Shanghai and saw other customers show their phones and take the food without giving over any cash or using bank cards. Soon after, she realized that the customers were using WeChat Pay(微信支付). She was even more surprised to find that this kind of payment has spread to almost every part of Chinese people’s daily life now.
Lim pointed out that Singapore falls behind in mobile payments. “When visitors from China find that they have to use cash here, they ask, ‘How can Singapore be so backward?’ ” Lim said.
The popularity of mobile payments in China has made several foreign companies to accept them. Many countries now accept mobile payment services for Chinese tourists, with WeChat Pay covered in 13 foreign countries and areas and Alipay(支付寶) over 200.
While mobile payments are now a normal part of life in China, it’s not so common in other countries even in the US. It’s reported that in 2016, Chinese mobile payments were nearly 50 times greater than those in the US last year.
This may be partly because Western mobile payment services need businesses to install(安裝) expensive equipment(設(shè)備)before customers can use them. While in China, all it takes is a QR code(二維碼) and a smart phone.
1.According to Lim’s experience, which of the following you may probably see when buying things in China now?
A.People use cash to buy things at a shop without waiting in line.
B.People usually use bank cards to pay for breakfast in Shanghai.
C.People often go shopping with their smart phones instead of cash.
D.People don’t take any cash with them when they go shopping.
2.What does the underlined word “backward” mean in the passage?
A.麻煩的 B.落后的 C.不同的 D.搞笑的
3.According to the passage, we can learn that __________.
A.most Chinese people have been used to paying without cash now
B.WeChat Pay has developed faster than Alipay in foreign countries
C.people now can only use mobile payments in big cities of China
D.it’s hard for Chinese businesses to offer mobile payment services
4.What’s the best title for this passage?
A.China leads world in mobile payment B.The development of mobile payment
C.Advantages of using mobile payment D.How to use mobile payment in China
