Question

During rush hours, you never know when a bus or a taxi might come. Walking might be too tiring. If it’s about two or three miles away, which kind of transportation will you choose? 1.

Bike shares are a growing convenience in many cities around the world. 2. Riders usually have to pick up a bike at a self-serve station and return it at another station later. However, a Chinese bike-sharing company called Ofo, is bringing this idea to a new level.

Like any other bike-sharing service, Ofo users can get a bike at any time. 3. Instead, they can pick one up wherever and whenever they please. To get a bicycle, riders with the app are able to find the nearest one. 4. After parking the bike, all they have to do is to lock it.

This Chinese company already has its bicycle throughout China, the United States and Singapore. 5. “We want to reach more cities, connect more bikes and serve more people”, said Ofo founder Dai Wei.

A.Thousands of bike sharing programs have been set up by the governments.

B.When a rider is done with the bike, returning is just as easy.

C.This month, 500 Ofo bicycles will be set up in Cambridge, England.

D.For short journeys, riding a bike could be the best solution.

【解析】文章主要讲述了，在交通拥堵高峰期，或者出租车屡等不来，步行又太累人时，最好的交通方式是骑自行车，从而介绍了这个共享单车服务，以及公司，对人生活便利的助推，以及对公司的运营和推广。

1.根据文章上下文：If it’s about two or three miles away, which kind of transportation will you choose? Bike shares are a growing convenience in many cities around the world.可知，此处要描述一种交通方式，而下文提到了共享单车现在在许多大城市变得越来越便利。故答案为：D.

2.根据下文：Riders usually have to pick up a bike at a self-serve station and return it at another station later.可知，自行车骑行者要不得不在服务站取得一辆自行车，完事后要在另一个站点归还。可知，上文要描述现在政府已经在很多城市建立了共享单车服务站。故答案为：A.

3.根据下文：Instead, they can pick one up wherever and whenever they please.可知，他们可以随时随地被取得使用，意味着想要使用共享单车的人不必要找到一个服务站。故答案为：E.

4.根据下文：After parking the bike, all they have to do is to lock it.在停放自行车之后，所有他们要做到就是锁上。可知此处描述用完共享单车后的归还要求。故答案为：B.

5.根据上文：This Chinese company already has its bicycle throughout China, the United States and Singapore.可知，这个中国公司已经在全国，美国，乃至新加坡都提供了这种自行车服务。可知，下文描述自行车更大范围的推广。故答案为：C.

点睛：从五选五阅读题的模式看似很难，但只要我们了解了这种题型的特点，掌握了一定的解题技巧，就可以用很短的时间选出正确的答案。以下是解题步骤：

通读全文，了解文章大意

快速浏览选项，初选答案

详读文章和选项，确定答案

1. 词汇复现。 复现是保证文章前后衔接而经常使用的一种写作手段。作者在文章中会对同一个概念重复描述，从而使得同样的意思在文章不同的地方重复出现。词汇复现通常有同义词复现、近义词复现、反义词复现等。 2. 代词。 在详读文章和选项的过程中，一定要注意句子中出现的人称代词或者指示代词，特别是选项中以及空格附近句子中出现的代词。根据代词的单复数和其在句子中所作的成分，我们可以找出代词指代的名词或者句子，从而帮助我们解题。 3. 语篇标记语。 语篇标记语是指指示语篇中各种逻辑连接关系并对语篇连贯起指示作用的词语。语篇标记语可以是表示时间顺序的first, then, next等；表达作者组织语篇方式的for example, in other words, in short 等。语篇标记语不仅能表达相邻句子之间的关系，还能表明某一特定语篇的总体走向。因此，对语篇标记语了解得越多，就越可以更好地理解文章的结构和要表达的内容。4. 空前空后。 4.一篇文章的句与句之间必然有一定的逻辑关联，如果我们把其中一句抽掉，必然会影响其逻辑意义的顺畅发展。比如说空前空后的两句讨论的不是同一个主题，那么空格处所在的句子一定会起转折、改变话题等作用。
