文档介绍：Bicycle-sharing
About three decades ago, China was known as the “Bicycle Kingdom”. But the two-wheeled mode (方式) of transport’s popularity began to fade, with many bikes soon replaced by their fuel-petitors.
大约在30年前,中国被称为“自行车王国”。但随着自行车不久被燃油驱动的汽车所取代,这种双轮交通方式的热度开始衰退。
But recent months have seen a revival (复兴) of the humble (普通的) bike across China, with an increasing number of people choosing cycling instead of driving to schools, to workplaces or to do sightseeing. The introduction of bike-sharing schemes, pioneered by start-ups (新兴公司) like Ofo and Mobike, has brought the trend to a new level.
但在近几个月中,中国大地上见证了一场普通自行车的复兴,越来越多的人选择骑车上班上学、游览观光,而非驾车出行。而由Ofo、摩拜单车等新兴公司发起的共享单车计划,则将这一趋势带向了一个新高度。
仅凭自己的智能手机,人们就能解锁这种共享单车。这些单车都装有全球定位系统,可以被放在公共场合的任何地方,等待下一位用户使用。它们受到了
许多中国人的欢迎,因为它们有效地解决了
“最后一公里”难题,即个人行程中的最后一段。
People can unlock the shared bikes by simply using their smartphone. The bikes are equipped with GPS and
can be left anywhere in public for
the next user. They’re popular among many Chinese people as they provide an effective solution to the “last mile” problem, which refers to the final leg of a person’s journey.
China’s mobile bicycle-sharing platforms have seen their bikes sabotaged in many cities, as their expansion across the country runs into local resistance.
