　　Whenever something new appears in the world, there is always a process of gradual acceptance. In recent years, the Internet car-hailing (hereinafter referred to as "online car-hailing") that has gradually become popular around the world is no exception. Even in the United States, where "online car-hailing" appeared earlier, it has gone through a tortuous journey from illegal to legal.

　　Driver and vehicle access are strict

　　In the United States, local legislatures and governments are responsible for the legislation and regulation of online car-hailing. The first state to recognize the legality of online car-hailing was California, the birthplace of Uber. In September 2013, the state’s transportation regulator formulated regulations for online platforms. The first state legislation to recognize the legality of online car-hailing was Colorado (June 2014). Subsequently, the Washington, D.C. legislature also passed legislation in November 2014 to legalize online car-hailing. So far, at least 23 states in the United States have recognized the legality of online car-hailing.

　　Local legislatures in the United States have quite strict requirements on the access of ride-hailing drivers and vehicles. Although drivers and owners do not need to apply to the government or regulatory agencies, the safety verification of private cars and drivers joining the platform company is quite strict, and the legislation also sets specific requirements for vehicle and driver liability insurance.

　　First, in terms of driver access, drivers who apply for online car-hailing must meet the following conditions: be at least 21 years old; have received specialized driving skills training, have a qualified and valid driver’s license and have relatively skilled driving skills; pass the national criminal background check and driving record verification; have purchased qualified insurance and a valid registered local vehicle. Some states require drivers to have more than three years of driving experience.

　　Second, in terms of vehicle access, the law requires private vehicles to join the platform company and complete a comprehensive safety inspection including 19 vehicle parts in accordance with regulations before providing service. After that, the platform company is obliged to ensure that the vehicle is subject to the same inspection every year and keep inspection records for review. Severely modified vehicles are prohibited from being used in ride-hailing operations. Legislation in some states requires operating vehicles to pass a comprehensive safety inspection by an authoritative certification body within 90 days before starting service, and every year thereafter; the vehicle should be a four-door vehicle with no more than eight seats (including the driver). The vehicle is not more than 10 years old before starting service; even if it is new, the service period cannot exceed 12 years.

　　Third, protect the interests of passengers. The entry requirements and supervision of ride-hailing drivers and vehicles by local legislatures in the United States are themselves measures to protect the safety and interests of passengers. In addition, state laws also have different provisions on vehicle insurance. California legislation requires vehicles that join the platform company to enjoy commercial liability insurance with an insurance amount of not less than $1 million for each accident related to the vehicle and the driver when providing service, and it must be publicized on the platform company’s mobile phone and website. Colorado’s bill requires each driver to purchase liability insurance for his vehicle not less than the legal limit. Before agreeing to the driver to join the online platform service, the platform company should review the evidence of the driver’s purchase of this insurance. In addition, the "Hire Car Innovation Amendment Law 2014" (hereinafter referred to as the "Innovation Law"), which covers ride-hailing, sets out detailed standards for liability insurance, seeking to eliminate any insurance gaps.

　　The government cooperates with online platforms to supervise

　　According to the laws of various states in the United States, there are no quantity and freight controls for online car-hailing. First, in most places in Europe and the United States, there are no quantity and freight controls for traditional phone-hailing car-hailing cars. Second, in the taxi booking service market, passengers have access to sufficient information to compare and identify the vehicles, services and price points of different car-hailing agencies. Therefore, the problem of information asymmetry is negligible, and it is even less necessary to implement quantity and freight controls for online car-hailing cars. However, the Innovation Act introduced by the legislature of Washington, D.C. stipulates that the freight rates of online car-hailing services must be regulated by law in the event of a government declaration of a state of emergency.

　　According to the legislation, the operation and safety supervision of online car-hailing in the United States is basically implemented by the government and the network platform in cooperation. The government formulates the access standards for vehicles, drivers and insurance, and the network platform bears the obligation and responsibility for implementing the standards. First, the government formulates the access standards for vehicles, drivers and insurance in accordance with the laws of the state, and at the same time appropriately regulates the operation of the network platform company; secondly, the network platform must apply to the regulatory agency for government license before starting business operations; thirdly, after obtaining the license, the platform company must undertake the operation management responsibility of managing the access of vehicles and drivers and daily supervision in accordance with the detailed access standards and operation requirements for vehicles, drivers and insurance formulated by the government.

　　In addition, Washington, D.C.’s Innovation Act has more detailed provisions on the protection of disadvantaged groups. Platform companies may not increase fees for people with disabilities to ride in online car-hailing services. Drivers of online car-hailing services must load the transportation equipment of people with disabilities when the vehicle conditions permit. The law also requires all platform companies to ensure that software settings for the blind, deaf, and severely hearing impaired are available on their websites and mobile apps by January 2016.

　　The platform company is responsible for compensation for the accident

　　In terms of passenger information protection, Washington, D.C.’s Innovation Act not only requires platform companies to report and certify compliance with operators’ operations to the Taxi Commission every year, but also has the authority to investigate and copy platform companies’ data on consumer protection. If problems are found, the Taxi Commission has the power to investigate and punish platform companies and operators for violations.

　　For the liability after the accident, the laws of Colorado in the United States include: the platform company’s insurance compensation amount for an accident should not be less than 1 million US dollars; second, if the driver logs in to the platform, but has not yet provided an appointment service, in this case, if a traffic accident occurs, the platform company shall bear at least 50,000 US dollars insurance compensation liability for each person in each accident, and shall bear the liability for compensation of not less than 100,000 US dollars for each accident, and for the property damage caused by the use of vehicles in each accident, bear the liability of not less than 30,000 US dollars; the driver does not log in to the platform or the driver logs in, but does not operate on the platform during the period, the platform company is not responsible for the driver’s behavior, and the relevant liability shall be borne by the driver.

　　The legalization of online car-hailing has changed the structure of the taxi and car-hailing market, enabling private cars and non-full-time drivers to provide transportation services to the public after meeting regulatory requirements. To a certain extent, this not only breaks the long-term monopoly of the car-hailing industry and eliminates the original boundary between operating vehicles and non-operating vehicles, but also creates opportunities for the restructuring of the taxi and car-hailing market, and also promotes profound changes in legal concepts and regulatory methods.

Fast Technology News on August 25th, at the Chengdu Auto Show that opened today,Geely Galaxy L6 officially opened the pre-sale, the price range 12.8-15 8,000.

The new car is located in a compact sedan, with a length, width and height of 4782/1875/1489mm and a wheelbase of 2752mm, which has reached the A + class body size.

The interior is designed with a wrapping cockpit, equipped with a new style of multi-function steering wheel, equipped with a 10.25-inch narrow-width LCD instrument and a 13.2-inch vertical central control screen.At the same time, the co-pilot entertainment screen on the L7 was cancelled, and the car was equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip.

In terms of power, the new car is composed of a 1.5T hybrid dedicated engine + P1 + P2 dual motor and a 3-speed DHT Pro gearbox, of which the 1.5T engine has a maximum power of 120kW (163 horsepower) and a maximum torque of 225 Nm; the motor has a maximum power of 107kW (145 horsepower).The maximum torque is 338 Nm, the system’s comprehensive maximum power is 287kW (390 horsepower), and the system’s comprehensive maximum torque is 535 Nm.

The official 0-100km/h acceleration takes 6.3 seconds (measured 7.3 seconds), the pure electric battery life is 125km (CLTC), the feed fuel consumption is 4.55L/100km, and the comprehensive battery life is 1370km. The car is also equipped with 4 driving modes: pure electric mode, extended range mode, intelligent mode, and performance mode.

There is no doubt that the model positioning of the Galaxy L6 is highly similar to that of the BYD Qin Plus DM-i. However, the Galaxy L6 has obvious advantages in the power level, so its starting price is also 30,000 yuan higher than the Qin Plus DM-i, but will consumers pay for this 30,000 yuan? Follow-up sales proof is required.

　　In recent years, with the upgrading of consumption, the 300,000-level models in the domestic automobile market have become popular choices, many of which are industry veterans and industry newcomers. Among the models of this level, the Extreme Krypton 001 and Avita 11 Hongmeng Edition are the leaders. As a popular choice in the market, which of these two models is more worthy of choice? It is not difficult to find through comparison.

　　As a new energy model, intelligent strength has always been what consumers like. In terms of hardware, the Avita 11 Hongmeng Edition is equipped with three screens, including an entertainment screen for the co-pilot, which greatly enhances the operation experience. The JK 001 has only two traditional screens, which lacks a sense of technology. The car-machine interaction is the core of the intelligent cockpit. The Avita 11 Hongmeng Edition is equipped with a deeply customized Hongmeng cockpit. The zero-level page layout is easy to operate, the interface switching is silky and smooth, and the UI interface design is lively and flexible. In addition, the car-machine is equipped with Huawei ecological applications, which not only takes into account functionality, but also brings a stronger entertainment experience, and the experience is full. Extreme Krypton 001 uses a self-developed car machine, and there are not many problems in terms of function implementation, but in terms of the fluency of the car machine, the number of APP applications, and function expansion, it is still much inferior to Hongmeng car machine.

　　In terms of intelligent driving, the Avita 11 Hongmeng Edition comes standard with 34 smart driving sensors, including 3 lidar, while the polar krypton 001 does not have the configuration of lidar. Combined with Huawei’s computing power, the GAEB function of the Avita 11 Hongmeng Edition can accurately identify special-shaped obstacles such as mounds, falling rocks, and fallen trees. Compared with traditional AEB, the recognition ability is stronger, and it has achieved far-ahead results in the recent Dcar test, making travel safety more secure. In addition, the Avita 11 Hongmeng Edition is equipped with Huawei’s high-end intelligent driving system ADS 2.0, and the whole series is equipped with high-speed NCA as standard. The NCA without map smart driving will also achieve national coverage within the year, and the smart driving experience will be upgraded again. In contrast, the control experience of JK 001 in terms of smart driving functions is not perfect, and the implementation of NZP functions is far away, so the advantages and disadvantages are very obvious.

　　It is worth mentioning that the Avita 11 Hongmeng Edition currently has a very good car purchase rights, with a deposit of 5,000 yuan deducting 25,000 yuan for the purchase of the car, and 280,000 yuan for the entry-level version. Whether it is positioning or price, it can make the old rival Jitu Krypton 001 feel pressure.

　　Although the Extreme Krypton 001 and Avita 11 Hongmeng Edition are both very powerful models, it is not difficult to find that in terms of intelligence, the Avita 11 Hongmeng Edition is more attractive and cost-effective. If you have a car purchase plan in the near future, you may wish to consider this model.

　　On the 16th local time, the US Department of Commerce announced that American companies will be banned from selling parts, commodities, software and technology to ZTE in the next seven years. A heavy punch hit ZTE.

　　Sino-US trade friction has lasted for 30 days since US President Trump announced the imposition of punitive tariffs on various goods in China on March 23rd.

　　Is this move of the United States in the name of "national security of the United States" really just competing with China in trade?

　　The ulterior motive to ban sales actually stems from the panic of the United States about the rise of science and technology in China.

　　"Trade war"? The United States wants to fight technology.

　　The Wall Street Journal published an article a few days ago, pointing out the real exchange area of the "trade war" between the two countries:Field of science and technology.

　　

　　In the trade war with China, American science and technology field was besieged by war.

　　At the beginning of the article, if you think that the trade friction between China and the United States is only about steel and soybeans, then you have to think about it:

　　If you think the rising economic tensions between the U.S. and China are all to do with commodities like steel and soybeans, think again. The tech sector is very much in the crossfire.

　　If you think that the trade friction between China and the United States is only related to commodities such as steel and soybeans, you need to think twice, because the field of science and technology is in full swing.

　　What the Trump administration is worried about is the technological advantages of these enterprises in China:

　　Besides the generally negative tone of U.S.-China trade relations, the Trump administration is also worried about ZTE and Huawei’ s growing technological edge: The two companies led the world in patent applications in 2017, according to the World Intellectual Property Organization.

　　In addition to the negative tone of Sino-US trade relations, the Trump administration is also worried about the growing technological advantages of ZTE and Huawei: according to the World Intellectual Property Organization, these two companies led the world in the number of patent applications in 2017.

　　 The United States is worried about the development of 5G by China science and technology enterprises

　　What is the United States particularly worried about? The article pointed out that it is the 5G technology of these enterprises. This is likely to make the United States lag behind in communication technology, and it can only rely on China science and technology enterprises in the future:

　　A specific concern is that their massive investment in next-generation mobile-network technology, known as 5G, could leave American wireless carriers with no choice but to use Chinese technology in future.

　　A very specific concern is that they (ZTE and Huawei) have invested heavily in 5G, which may make American wireless operators have to rely on China technology in the future.

　　The article said that this is the same as the US government’s intervention in Qualcomm’s acquisition, and they are all worried that their own development of 5G will be blocked:

　　The move against ZTE is consistent with the U.S. government’ s decision last month to block Singapore-based Broadcom ’ s proposed takeover of Qualcomm, on the grounds it would undermine U.S. strength in 5G technology.

　　Last month, the U.S. government blocked Broadcom’s request to acquire Qualcomm on the grounds that it would damage the U.S. advantage in 5G technology, which is actually a routine with its sanctions against ZTE.

　　 Dissatisfied with Made in China 2025》ZTE wants to play a big game of chess.

　　The New York Times said that the United States has long been staring at China’s 2025 and wants to play a big game with China in cutting-edge technology, trying to prevent China from leading some technology industries:

　　

　　China enterprises are banned from buying American parts.

　　The article writes:

　　That trade clash now centers heavily on cutting-edge technology. The Trump administration accuses China of using coercion and illicit means to obtain A merican technology. In particular, it has criticized an industrial plan known as Made in China 2025 that seeks to make China a world leader in industries like robotics, electric cars and medical devices.

　　Now, this trade conflict mainly focuses on cutting-edge technology. The Trump administration accused China of using coercion and illegal means to acquire American technology, and was particularly dissatisfied with the industrial plan of Made in China 2025. The plan seeks to make China a world leader in areas such as robots, electric cars and medical equipment.

　　In a bid to stop China from dominating these industries, the White House has proposed limiting American exports of semiconductors and advanced machinery to the country. That could happen through new investme nt restrictions, which are slated to be announced in the coming months.

　　The White House tried to prevent China from leading these industries, and proposed to restrict the export of semiconductors and advanced machinery from the United States to China. This may be achieved through new investment restrictions, which will be announced in the coming months.

　　The New York Times also said that in recent years, China has made considerable progress in some fields such as artificial intelligence:

　　While China has long been viewed as the lower-cost producer for technology companies in the United States, it has in recent years gained considerable ground in areas like artificial intelligence. Last year, China unveiled a plan to become the world leader in artificial intelligence and create an industry worth $150 billion to its economy by 2030.

　　Although China has long been regarded as a low-cost producer of American technology companies, in recent years, China has made considerable progress in artificial intelligence and other fields. Last year, China announced its plan to become a world leader in the field of artificial intelligence and turn it into an industry worth 150 billion US dollars (about 940 billion yuan) by 2030.

　　The American media Axios also published an article saying that this is due to the panic of China technology:

　　The United States is alarmed by the threat of science and technology in China.

　　Can the United States really get the upper hand by sanctioning China’s enterprises?

　　Those who hurt people will hurt themselves. The United States has shot at ZTE this time. Many American media commented that it was shooting themselves in the foot:

　　

　　WSJ: In the war of science and technology between China and the United States, the United States killed 1,000 enemies and suffered 800 losses.

　　Fu Cheng, the founder chairman of China Capital Capital, described the US sanctions against ZTE as follows:

　　the fraughtest moment in the 30-year history of U.S.-China technology trade and mutual reliance

　　The most worrying moment in the 30-year history of Sino-US science and technology trade and interdependence.

　　Worried, worried

　　 American chipmakers are also having a hard time.

　　Just as many industries in China depend on American chips, the American chip market also needs China. Qualcomm has been pushed to an extremely embarrassing situation by its own country:

　　The block put the mobile-chip company firmly at the center of a growing tech rivalry between its home country and its biggest market: China, which accounts for almost two-thirds of Qualcomm’ s revenue.

　　The ban puts Qualcomm, a mobile phone chip company, at the center of the technological contest between China and the United States, while China is Qualcomm’s largest market, and two-thirds of Qualcomm’s revenue comes from China.

　　And because of this, Qualcomm’s plan to acquire NXP, a Dutch company, may be implicated and forced to shelve:

　　China’ s Commerce Ministry spokesman, Gao Feng, said Thursday a preliminary review of Qualcomm’ s NXP deal turned up issues that make “it difficult to eliminate the negative impact,” but he didn’ t rule out the possibility of an eventual approval.

　　Gao Feng, spokesman of China’s Ministry of Commerce, said on 19th that he was reviewing the case of Qualcomm’s acquisition of NXP, and thought that the merger was "difficult to eliminate the negative impact", but he did not rule out the possibility of final approval.

　　Qualcomm said Thursday that it refiled its application with Chinese regulators, and agreed with NXP to extend the deal’ s deadline by three months to July 25.

　　Qualcomm said on the 19th that it had resubmitted its application to China and agreed with NXP to extend the trading deadline by three months to July 25th.

　　It is reported that according to anti-monopoly laws, this transaction needs to be approved by the regulatory authorities of nine countries and regions. After many games, the EU finally gave the green light, and now it only needs the approval of the Ministry of Commerce of China.

　　The article said:

　　The deal is seen as crucial to San Diego-based Qualcomm, which needs to look for growth beyond its dominance in the smartphone sector. NXP specializes in making chips for automobiles, a rapidly growing market.

　　This acquisition is particularly important for Qualcomm in San Diego, which needs to seek growth outside its dominant smart phone industry, while NXP specializes in mobile phone chip manufacturing, which is a fast-growing market.

　　According to the article, the interdependence of Chinese and American technology companies proves that the war of science and technology is not a zero-sum game, and Qualcomm is one of the injured scientific enterprises in the United States:

　　The interdependence of technology companies across the Pacific means that a tech war isn’ t a zero-sum game. Qualcomm is one of several U.S. suppliers hurt by the ban on sales to ZTE.

　　The interdependence of trans-Pacific technology companies shows that the war of technology is not a zero-sum game. Qualcomm is one of the injured suppliers who banned ZTE in the United States.

　　According to a report by Bloomberg on the 19th, in order to reduce costs, Qualcomm has begun to lay off employees on a large scale:

　　Qualcomm Inc. has begun cutting about 1, 500 jobs in California as part of a broader workforce reduction aimed at meeting a commitment to investors to pare costs by $1 billion, according to people familiar with the process.

　　According to people familiar with the matter, Qualcomm has started to cut about 1,500 jobs in California, which is also part of a broader layoff plan aimed at fulfilling its promise to investors to cut costs by $1 billion.

　　 American farmers have added new worries

　　A while ago, foreign media had lamented that a trade war between China and the United States would bring a disastrous blow to American farmers.

　　However, the recent US sanctions against China technology companies will deal a blow to American farmers on the other hand: Internet speed.

　　According to the Shi Ying Finance website, the Federal Communications Commission voted for a measure that will prevent American operators from using federal funds to buy network equipment from companies such as Huawei and ZTE.

　　The article is worried about the network in rural America:

　　Cutting out the Chinese companies from rural markets could place significant financial pressure on carriers and reduce their ability to provide adequate connectivity.

　　Driving China companies out of the US rural market may bring huge financial pressure to operators and reduce their ability to provide adequate network connections.

　　The sanctions imposed on ZTE have aroused the hearts of China people.

　　The pain of ZTE’s "chip" made us aware of our shortcomings, and at the same time aroused the hearts of Chinese people.

　　Foreign media have also noticed this.

　　The Hill said:The United States’ ban on ZTE aroused the unity of China people.

　　The report said:

　　The Chinese are now rallying around telecommunications company ZTE Corp. in response to a U.S. ban on sales of components to the Chinese company.

　　China people are now united around ZTE, a telecommunications company, to resist the US decision to ban the sale of components.

　　Reuters also reported that:

　　Chinese social media has seen an outpouring of support for ZTE.

　　A large number of comments from netizens have sprung up on social media in China to support ZTE.

　　The commentary in South China Morning Post thinks that ZTE may become an opportunity for China if it dies.

　　Why does the United States sanction ZTE or become the best driving force to boost China’s chip ambition?

　　According to the article, the China administration will therefore work hard to get rid of its dependence on the United States in the semiconductor field:

　　The shock of possibly seeing one of its star state owned tech companies struggle for survival will push Beijing even harder in its efforts to reduce re liance on some US$200 billion of annual semiconductor imports, which it fears holds back its own technology sector.

　　Seeing that the technology giants of state-owned enterprises will be struggling to survive, the China government is shocked and will make every effort to get rid of the annual semiconductor import of about 200 billion US dollars. The government is worried that these imported semiconductors will hinder the development of the country’s science and technology field.

　　The article notes that the China government has already invested a lot of money in the semiconductor field and was established.National integrated circuit industry investment fundGive financial support to domestic semiconductor enterprises in the form of direct shareholding.

　　China’ s National Integrated Circuits Industry Investment Fund, a central government subsidy programme aimed at reducing the country’ s reliance on foreign microchips, wants to raise as much as 200 billion yuan (US$32 billion) in its latest round of funding. The first round of about 140 billion yuan was allocated to more than 20 companies.

　　It is reported that China National Integrated Circuit Industry Investment Fund (a government subsidy project aimed at reducing dependence on foreign chips) plans to raise 200 billion RMB in the latest fundraising. The 140 billion yuan raised in the first phase has been invested in more than 20 enterprises.

　　The commentary is optimistic that China has enough capital and market to support its own chip industry, and the key lies in a breakthrough:

　　China has the capital and the consumer market to support its own chip industry, but the road to get there won’ t be easy. More often than not, a crisis is the best way to achieve a breakthrough – perhaps in a new technology that could make current manufacturing methods obsolete and vault the inventor to No 1 position.

　　China has enough capital and consumer market to support its own chip industry, but the road is tortuous. Usually, a crisis may be the best way to find a breakthrough. Perhaps China can develop new technologies and eliminate the current manufacturing methods, so as to jump to the top.

　　According to the learning method, the entertainment may be weakened, but when you really understand each episode, you will find that this is a more interesting perspective, and you can discover the connotation and even cultural phenomena behind many plots.

　　So, what is the correct way to learn English through drama?

　　First, pick the drama series

　　If you want to improve your English by watching TV plays, you must first choose a suitable TV series, because not all American TV plays are suitable for learning English.

　　For example, Hollywood blockbusters with cool special effects, or medical drama, crime dramas, criminal investigation dramas, etc. with small themes and strong professionalism are very suitable for entertainment and relaxation, but they are not suitable for learning materials. The length of movies is generally 1.5~2 hours, which is not conducive to repeated learning and easy to get bored. However, most of the words in the dramas with too strong professionalism are related to this specific field, which is relatively uncommon and difficult to use in daily life (unless you are particularly interested in this field, you can challenge it after reaching a higher level).

　　Choosing a drama for the purpose of learning should not only focus on the plot, but also take life-oriented, multi-dialogue and clear pronunciation as the standards, and also distinguish the difficulty level. Some American dramas speak too fast, and all kinds of accents and slang are mixed, so they are not suitable for beginners to practice.

　　I suggest to choose life sitcoms at first. 80% of the words in these American dramas are within the common vocabulary of daily communication. The plots are close to life, and the pronunciation is generally standard and clear. Both listening and speaking are ideal materials. Moreover, the duration of a single episode is moderate, and there may not be a plot connection between each episode, which is suitable for learning each episode independently. The most typical recommendation is Friends. The story is light and humorous, and the episode lasts for more than 20 minutes. It is very convenient to listen and imitate repeatedly. Every time you conquer an episode, you don’t have to worry about where you saw it last time, and you can quickly accumulate a sense of accomplishment.

　　If the foundation is weak, cartoons are also a good choice. For example, the British cartoon "Piggy Peggy" on fire is only 5 minutes per episode, which is more convenient to practice. But don’t underestimate it, its vocabulary in the first four seasons reached 4503, which is about the level of CET-4.

　　When the level is improved, you can choose drama American dramas for advanced practice. Relatively speaking, melodrama has more complicated scenes, characters and topics, more orthodox and authentic expressions, and a rich vocabulary.

　　In short, it is the first step to success to choose the most suitable drama according to your own English foundation.

　　Second, prepare materials

　　After finding a suitable drama, you can search the lines and scripts of this drama on the Internet (it is also recommended that you choose life sitcoms because such dramas are widely circulated, and it is easy to find scripts and even intensive notes on the Internet).

　　Go through the script, look up the new words you don’t know, and get a general idea of the dialogue and story. Then take the script, put on headphones and start watching the play seriously!

　　Third, watch the drama

　　First of all, it is clear that there is no future to rely on Chinese subtitles all the time! If you want to really improve your level, you have to ask yourself to get used to getting rid of subtitles and learn to chew raw meat. As for how to set Chinese and English subtitles, QQ Video and Storm Video all have the function of "mosaic subtitles", and Baidu’s experience can be found (see the picture on the right).

　　Step 1

　　The first time, you can open Chinese and English subtitles, get familiar with the plot, and make comments in the script book, marking the places you don’t understand and excellent expressions. When recording, don’t analyze or try to remember for the time being, and then review it uniformly after reading it all over.

　　Step 2

　　The second time, turn off the Chinese subtitles, only look at English to understand every dialogue of the characters, open the Chinese comparison where you really don’t understand, and mark the points you don’t understand.

　　Step 3

　　Try to turn off the subtitles for the third or fourth time, listen to the dialogue of the characters, and try to reflect the meaning of each line immediately when you hear it, and fully understand the plot. You can listen to the places that are faster and more difficult to understand, and arrange the practice times according to your own situation.

　　Step 4

　　Open your mouth and follow.

　　The dialogue and narration in American TV plays are the best examples of oral learning. On the basis of watching it carefully for several times, opening your mouth and following it can greatly improve your oral ability, and at the same time consolidate and train your listening.

　　First, read one sentence after another, watch one sentence, press pause and read one sentence after another. Try to imitate the pronunciation and intonation rhythm of the characters, not only the pronunciation, but also the phonetic forms of words in real communication, such as linking, stressing and shortening, and carefully understand the language habits in expression.

　　After following the whole episode for 1-2 times, you should already know its contents by heart, so you should try to follow it synchronously. You can practice in 3-minute or 5-minute intervals, and try to keep up with the speed of the characters’ speech until they imitate like the video before starting the next paragraph.

　　Step 5

　　Dictation.

　　If you want to maximize the value of American TV series, you will eventually have to write it. Dictation is definitely a good method. Turn on the video (you can turn off the subtitles) and listen to the sentence by sentence. You will find some problems that you neglected before. The most common thing is that you can’t write words. Master the words that you can’t write, and you won’t really "catch up" with an episode of American TV until you have dictated the content of this episode.

　　Knowing the correct method, it’s time to choose a play and practice it.

　　The Simpsons The Simpsons

　　Douban score: 9.0

　　The Simpsons is the longest-lived sitcom and animation program in American history, and it is also an absolute masterpiece in many people’s minds. The story is set in the fictional American town of Springfield. The Simpsons are an ordinary American family of five. His father Homer is the safety inspector of the nuclear power plant in the town, and his mother Ma Zhi is a thoughtful housewife. His naughty eldest son Bart, his clever sister Lisa and his little girl Maggie will never grow up. The happy life of a middle-class family is shown in a funny and humorous way full of nonsense.

　　For beginners, cartoons are the first, with short dialogue, slow speech, easy dialogue and simple plot. The Simpsons story is interesting and deep, so it is the first choice for getting started.

　　Friends

　　Friends

　　Douban score: 9.6~9.8

　　One of the most popular American dramas in history tells the story of six friends with different personalities who have gone through ten years of ups and downs together from acquaintance to acquaintance. This play is so classic that I won’t introduce it too much. As entertainment, humor is relaxed and the characters are full; As a learning material, most of its lines are short spoken sentences, with moderate speech speed, daily vocabulary and standard and clear pronunciation.

　　Other similar excellent sitcoms include Modern Family, The Big Bang Theory (there are too many uncommon words in the first two seasons, so it is recommended to watch them from the fourth season) and Desperate Housewives (compared with Friends, there are more long sentences and advanced words, which are slightly more difficult).

　　Advanced edition

　　This is us "our day"

　　Douban score: 8.8~9.6

　　The American drama, which is extremely warm and healing max, has the nostalgia of the 1980s in the United States, and also has the laughter and tears that contemporary people feel the same way. It is the drama that touched me the most times. It is about the family life of an ordinary American couple and their three children. Jack and his wife Rebecca have three children born on the same day. Both generations born on the same day have their own troubles and confusions. Faced with countless problems thrown by life, how do they actively resolve and embark on different life trajectories … …

　　The plot of "thick chicken soup flavor" magically makes people immersed in it and can’t extricate themselves. Laughter and tears are juxtaposed, which is not dull and unpretentious. The dialogue in it is very life-oriented. It is a necessary drama to understand the daily life of Americans and learn common spoken English, and maybe it can cure your "mourning" inadvertently.

　　Felicity

　　Felicity

　　Douban score: 8.5~8.6

　　Felicity, a girl, gave up the opportunity to go to Stanford Medical School to pursue her boyfriend, but came to new york thousands of miles away alone. The play tells the story of Felicity’s new independent life after she left her parents, and the important choices she and her new friends made for various problems in life when they entered adulthood. Although it is a 1998 drama, it is not out of date at all. The youth, growth and confusion it tells always resonate easily, and it can also be used to explore the daily life and culture of American university campuses.

　　The plot is very close to daily life (especially college life), the words are more everyday, and there are many authentic oral expressions, which are suitable for learning materials.

　　Advanced edition

　　The West Wing "the west wing"

　　Douban score: 9.1

　　High-quality American TV series with political themes. Butler, the leader of the Democratic Party, won the election and became the new president in the White House. He and his team were baptized in a series of political events based on real historical events, and experienced the transformation of life in the first year of high-intensity work.

　　There are countless classic debates and speeches, but the speed of speech and professional vocabulary are very difficult, so it is difficult to chew them down, which is suitable for people with higher English level.

　　Mad Men

　　Mad Men

　　Douban score: 8.7~9.4

　　The 1960s was the heyday of American advertising. The drama tells the brutal commercial competition of American advertising industry and the scenes of cross-border wars in the workplace, shopping malls and love scenes on Madison Avenue in Manhattan, which are interspersed with many creative cases. If you are familiar with or interested in advertising industry, this drama is very suitable for challenges.

　　Similar excellent American TV dramas include Newsroom, House of Cards, Prison Break, etc. The plot is very compact and wonderful, and the content is deeper, but it is also relatively difficult, which is suitable for those with higher level to challenge and break through.

　　Finally, I will give you some important tips:

　　1. English learning is a process of repeated practice. You should practice and listen again and again until you are satisfied. There is not much in learning, and it is far better to read one episode thoroughly than to watch ten episodes.

　　2. Learning English with American TV plays is mainly about listening and speaking, so as to improve daily communication ability. You can’t rely entirely on watching American TV plays for English learning, and you have to memorize the words!

　　3. Persistence is the most important thing in learning English. Repetition over and over may be a little boring, but if the purpose of watching American TV series is just for entertainment, don’t expect it to improve your English. After all, there is no shortcut to learning. (Senior Feng Xiao, Master of Sociology, Cambridge University, UK)

　　Street shops in Zhoushan reopened. Isabelle Yishe

　　Zhoushan, July 26th, Zhongxin. com (Zhang Yuhuan, Isabelle, 100 million raindrops) What does a typhoon day mean to the people in the coastal areas of Zhejiang? In Zhoushan, Zhejiang Province, 24 hours after the landing of the No.6 typhoon "Fireworks" this year, China News Service reporters tried to find the answer on the front line of Taiwan defense.

　　The center of "Fireworks" landed in Putuo District of Zhoushan City around 12: 30 on the 25th. When it landed, the situation in Zhoushan was somewhat "calm". There is no expected dark cloud pressing the city, but the wind and rain stop and the sky is slightly bright. On the afternoon of that day, there was heavy and light rain in the local area, and there was no strong wind.

　　There is still water in some areas of Zhoushan. Isabelle Yishe

　　On the evening of 25th, in a hotel in downtown Zhoushan, the wind and rain outside the 13th floor room was much bigger than when landing, and the reporter could clearly feel the whistling wind outside the window. By the morning of the 26th, the rain was still going on, but the wind was not as good as yesterday, and I felt a lot less "resistance" when I walked forward with an umbrella.

　　"I came to the supermarket to buy ingredients." Outside a small supermarket, local Zhang Jie came out with a big bag and a small bag. He has been used to many typhoons. "There was not much food in the house before, because I knew it would not be inconvenient to go out to buy things."

　　He said that every time a typhoon comes, it has little impact on going out except that there is some water accumulated on the road due to more precipitation. "It feels like a heavy rain."

　　The staff repaired the transformer. Isabelle Yishe

　　During the day, shops in Zhoushan downtown business district have basically opened normally, and sandbags are still piled at the door of some shops. Liu Yugan, a takeaway, said, "After a day’s rest yesterday, I will continue to take orders today." The store where he often takes meals on weekdays is basically open as usual, and business is not bad.

　　In terms of transportation, as of 15: 00 on the 26th, nearly 100 local 248 bus lines have been restored. Zhoushan’s water supply and power supply also remained basically normal.

　　As a typhoon landing place, many people in this city still continue to work and live on the original "track". And behind this "light cloud and light wind", who is carrying the burden?

　　The reporter came to the seaside park in Dinghai District, Zhoushan City, and the sea was not far away. The inland river in Dinghai District flows through here. At this time, the water level at the estuary of the outer river has increased, which has increased the pressure on the inland river. Sun Hongtao, deputy detachment leader of Zhoushan Base for National Emergency Rescue of Hazardous Chemicals, and his team are carrying out forced drainage.

　　"Inland rivers in Dinghai District usually need to drain into the sea, but under heavy rain, it is necessary to reduce water accumulation through large flow and strong drainage to avoid urban waterlogging." Sun Hongtao said that the system used was originally used for fire fighting, which can throw water 140 meters away. When the rainstorm comes, its "incarnation" drainage equipment has a displacement of 25,000 liters per minute.

　　He lay down at 4 o’clock in the morning and rested for more than three hours. Early in the morning, he and his team rushed to the stagnant water point. Sun Hongtao said that he should have been in Henan at this time. "As a national production safety emergency rescue team, we were originally scheduled to be dispatched to Henan for drainage emergency rescue, but ‘ Fireworks ’ When it strikes, we will carry out emergency rescue on the spot according to the arrangement to ensure the safety of production and life of ordinary people. "

　　Ye Jianbo, the captain of Zhoushan Blue Sky Rescue Team, just left an old residential area in Dinghai District of Zhoushan an hour ago. After receiving the news of rising water, he immediately led the team back to the scene.

　　"The terrain here is relatively low, and with the continuous precipitation, the tide has not retreated, and it is difficult to discharge water for a time." Ye Jianbo and his teammates persisted in transferring people at the scene, and the residents living on the first floor were taken out of the stagnant water area by them.

　　Near Qingfeng Road in Dinghai District, the reporter met Zhang Hongyong, the builder of Qiming Power Construction Branch of State Grid Zhoushan Power Supply Company. His duty is to come and repair the transformer. "If it is fast, it can be debugged within an hour, and the nearby residents will be restored as soon as possible, which should not affect the electricity consumption at night."

　　The staff is draining water. Isabelle Yishe

　　Under the dark sky, the rescue team and builders are still busy in the night, and the lights are still on in the distance.

　　As of 15: 00 on the 26th, Zhoushan dispatched more than 1,500 rescue teams and transferred about 4,000 people. The main distribution lines have been restored to 55, 1,394 stations have been seized, and 151,421 households have been restored to power supply.

　　During my stay in Zhoushan, the wind and rain were big and small, and never stopped. However, the reporter felt that this storm was more like a "bad weather" encountered in ordinary days for most local people. Wind comes and rain goes, and life goes on. (End)

Accelerate the transformation of electrification

Build more "green" BMW electric cars

Electrification has become one of the mainstream trends in the development of automobile industry. In recent years, BMW has continued to accelerate the transformation of electrification, constantly bringing attractive new products to customers. This year, there are five pure electric vehicles in China market: innovative BMW iX, innovative BMW i4, innovative BMW iX3, new BMW i3 and innovative BMW i7. In the first nine months of this year, BMW Group’s sales of pure electric vehicles in China increased by 65% year-on-year, maintaining a strong momentum.

Next, BMW will further strengthen the offensive of electric products. 2025 will be an important node of BMW Group’s electrification strategy, when it will usher in a "new generation" product array. The "new generation" models will have completely redesigned IT and software architecture, a new generation of high-performance electric drive systems and batteries, and a new concept of sustainability throughout the whole vehicle life cycle, especially giving priority to the use of recycled materials and advocating circular economy. By the end of 2025, BMW Group plans to deliver 2 million pure electric vehicles worldwide. It is estimated that by 2030, at least 50% of the Group’s global sales will come from pure electric vehicles. With the development of electric transformation, BMW adheres to the concept of circular carbon reduction and will bring more "green" electric vehicles to consumers.

BMW is willing to take "industrial meta-universe"

Support the high-quality development of China manufacturing industry.

The transformation of production network in the electric age is equally important. In the first half of this year, BMW Group promoted the future-oriented BMW iFACTORY production strategy in Europe and China simultaneously. On June 23rd, the large-scale upgrading project of BMW Brilliance’s production base (referred to as Rida Factory) was officially opened. This is the first BMW iFACTORY completed and put into production by BMW Group in the world. The total investment of this project is RMB 15 billion, which is the largest single investment ever made by BMW in China market, and once again fulfills the promise of BMW Group that "its home is in China".

BMW iFACTORY is the overall plan of BMW Group for future automobile production. It determines the future direction of the group’s factory and production technology, and sets a new benchmark for automobile production from three aspects: "lean, green and digital". Rida factory is the best example of iFACTORY’s production strategy. It is guided by electric driving behavior, widely applies data science, artificial intelligence and virtualization technology in production, and emphasizes the sustainable manufacturing of automobiles.

Rida Factory is the first factory of BMW Group to plan and simulate completely in virtual environment from the beginning of design. From factory planning, architectural design, production line layout to equipment debugging, digital twin models were created and simulated on the powerful Epic Games unreal engine 3D creation platform, and a real "industrial meta-universe" factory was built. In addition, the factory is "data-driven" and connects every product, every process and every employee with the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), thus realizing high-quality and high-efficiency digital production. Artificial intelligence, data analysis and algorithms are widely used, which transform decision-making from "experience-driven" to "data-driven". At present, BMW Shenyang production base has about 100 kinds of artificial intelligence applications.

It is worth mentioning that "BMW Start-up Garage", an innovation incubator of BMW Group, once again participated in China International Import Expo(CIIE), advocating the opening and cooperation in the field of innovation. In the "Innovation Incubation Zone", this year, the booth area of the automobile sector in charge of BMW’s start-up garage has expanded to 200 square meters, with 17 start-ups from Germany, the United States, Switzerland, Israel, Malaysia and Hong Kong, China bringing wonderful displays. The technology application fields cover autonomous driving, electric travel, future computing and intelligent manufacturing.

"BMW Start-up Garage" was established by BMW Group in 2015. In China, "BMW Start-up Garage" provides China start-up companies with the top development platform and first-class global resources in the automotive industry through systematic selection and incubation, and promotes the commercial application of innovative technologies.
