For a small but increasing  number of young women in modern-day China, true love is all about the numbers. A potential suitor may have a good sense of humor and reasonable good looks, but what they say really matters is if he owns an apartment and how many square feet it is. A sizable bank account is also a must, and, some say, so is a luxury car。

      At least, that’s the way things look if you watch Chinese television these days. The latest reality-TV scandal to shock the nation involves Ma Nuo, a 22-year-old model from Beijing who appeared on China's most popular dating show, If You Are the One. She rejected an offer from a male contestant to take a ride on his bike. "I'd rather cry in a BMW (寶馬) car than laugh on the backseat of a bicycle," Ma told her suitor with a giggle.

      The televised words swept the Internet and made an instant celebrity of Ma, who becomes one of the most talked-about women in the country. The reaction  among young Chinese was especially severe, reflecting growing anxieties over the widening gap between rich and poor, shifting societal values and public attention on the difficulties of finding a mate in a country where men are expected to outnumber women by 24 million in a decade.

      As disgusted as they have been by some of the contestants, viewers continue to watch religiously. Why are people still tuning in? "Audiences like programs because they are honest. They show the current reality of Chinese society," says Yan Mu, one of the founders of Baihe.com. Young people are so focused on making money and building their careers these days, they have little time to devote to dating, he says. "Many people feel pressure from their parents and peers," Yan adds. " It can be a struggle to find a partner." Money may not buy you love. But on China's reality shows, it can at least get you a date.

The underlined words“numbers”in the first paragraph include the following except_______

A. the age and degree B. the size of the house C. the sum of the deposit D. the price of the belonging

What does Ma Nuo mean by saying“I’d rather cry in a BMW car than laugh on the backseat of a bicycle.”in the second paragraph?

A. When she is in a BMW car, she will cry   B. When she is on a bike, she will laugh

C. She prefers money to true love           D. She prefers true love to money

Why do many young men take part in TV dating shows?

A. because they think they may get true love from them 

B. because they think China’s reality shows can at least give them a chance to date

C. because their parents and peers force them to do so

D. because viewers like dating shows

Which one of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A. some contestants have been disgusted because they are dishonest

B. young people are too busy to take part in dating shows

C. some people are worried that societal value are changing

D. Ma Nuo rejected the bike offered by the contestant
