My mother is sixty-five year old, that devotes herself to the whole family and us three daughters. Today I still remember clearly that there was the time when life was really hard in a remote mountain village. People there had a strong prejudice that girls should not go to school and stay at home doing housework. However, my mother held a total opposite view that her three daughters should get educated no matter what others thought and no matter what hard life was. My mother got little education because the Chinese Cultural Revolution and she decided not to let the same thing to happen to her girls. To his delight, we three sisters went to college and got well-educated. And now, we all have our jobs and our own happy families. We are such grateful for what Mum has done for us.

In summer the extreme heat often makes people sweaty and restless. While people are annoyed by it, experts suggest summer is the best season to discharge (排放) your body’s toxins (毒素) and recover your energy.
One popular option is hot-stone massage (按摩). Therapists use smooth and heated stones, usually river rocks, to massage certain parts of the body, or place them on key points of the body. The warmth of the hot stones will improve blood circulation and also help relax muscles, while sweating is also believed to be good for discharging the body’s toxins.
Another popular option is hot-stone baths. The hot-stone bath will help the body discharge toxins and humidity that accumulated during the last winter. Summer is the best season to build a good body. Rather than use water or steam to heat and wash the body, people simply wear a coat or something comfortable, and then lie on heated stone tablets made of hot stones, which are warmed to around 45oC. The body will gradually warm up and blood circulation will also be improved. More sweat will come out quickly. The sweat is smooth and fresh, not smelly like that released after sports activities. Such baths bring a number of health benefits, such as anti-aging, improved blood circulation and stress relief. The slimming effect of dieting can even be promoted.
Using hot stones for healing dates back to ancient times, but the modern renewal of hot-stone massage is generally credited to Mary Nelson, a native of Tucson, Arizona, America, whose trademark is “LaStone Therapy”.
The therapy is gaining wide popularity with many people, especially those who have jobs in cool air-conditioned rooms. The hot-stone therapy can help cure many diseases, including back pain.

Public transport is declining in the rich world. To those who have to squeeze onto the number 25 bus in London, or the A train in New York, the change might not be noticeable. But public transport is becoming less busy in those places, and passenger numbers are flat or falling in almost every American city. That is despite healthy growth in urban populations and employment.
Although transport agencies blame their unpopularity on things like roadworks and broken signals, it seems more likely that they are being outcompeted. App-based taxi services like Uber and Lyft are more comfortable and convenient than trains or buses. Cycling is nicer than it was, and rental bikes are more widely available. Cars are cheap to buy, thanks to cut-rate loans, and ever cheaper to run. Online shopping, home working and office-sharing mean more people can avoid travelling altogether.
The competition is only likely to grow. More than one laboratory is developing new transport technologies and applications. Silicon Valley invented Uber and, more recently, apps that let people rent electric scooters(滑板车) and then abandon them on the pavement. China created sharing-bicycles and battery-powered "e-bikes", both of which are spreading.
Transport agencies should accept the upstarts, and copy them. Cities tend either to ignore app-based services or to try to push them off the streets. That is understandable, given the rules-are-for-losers attitude of firms like Uber. But it is an error.
It is doubtful that most people make hard distinctions between public and private transport. They just want to get somewhere, and there is a cost in time, money and comfort. An ideal system would let them move across a city for a single payment, transferring from trains to taxis to bicycles as needed. Building a platform to allow that is hard, and requires much sweet-talking of traditional networks as well as technology firms. It is probably the secret to keeping cities moving.
1.What is the change in public transport in big cities?
A. It is becoming busier.
B. It is getting less popular.
C. There are fewer traffic delays.
D. There is more new transport.
2.In the author’s opinion, the reason for the decline of public transport is that ______.
A. there are roadworks and broken signals
B. people are becoming healthier and employed
C. cars and bikes are more and more available
D. transport agencies are seemingly less competitive
3.How does the author develop his idea in Paragraph 3?
A. By giving examples
B. By providing research results
C. By stating arguments
D. By comparing different approaches
4.According to the text, the key to keeping cities moving is ____________.
A. to develop an ideal system that satisfies everyone
B. to build a platform that appeals to transport agencies
C. to provide people with more means of transportation
D. to cater for both traditional networks and technology firms
