What did Chinese entrepreneurs (企业家) speak in the forum? Are there some quotable quotes for you?Jack Ma, founder

11、 and executive chairman of Alibaba Group“I think globalization cannot be stopped no one can stop globalization, no one can stop trade. If trade stops, the world stops. Trade is the way to dissolve (溶解，结束) the war not causethe war,” said Ma in Davos, “Google, Facebook,Amazon and Alibaba we are the lu

12、ckiest companies of this century.

13、n we face the fractured (分化的) world? Thats the topics of the Davos this year. I think a very important thing in business is cooperation. If we can unite, work together, if we work very closely, I think we can bring more hope to the people and we can build more trust between the people, countries and

14、 companies and partners,” he said.Jane Sun, CEO of Ctrip“Tourism is a sunrise industry. Since I entered Ctrip, every year there are new comers, which, first of all, shows that tourism is booming.” Sun told S in Davos. “We invested heavily in ABC. A refers to AI, B is big data, and C is cloud computi

15、ng. As we continue to expand overseas, these three will be very good weapons for us. So we think those mean opportunity,” she said.Hu Xiaoming, president of Aliyun“In 2018, people will see the development in various countries more closely connected with cloud computing.

18、puting. D. Financial efficiency.BPublic 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

19、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 L

20、yft 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 alt

21、ogether.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

22、and battery-powered e-bikes, both of which are spreading.Transport agencies should accept the upstarts, and copy them.

23、 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 bicycle

24、s 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.24.

28、 years afteritappeared in the film, but it still seems to hold its power especially during an economic downturn.The phrase comes from a film adaptation of Margaret Mitchells successful 1936 novel Gone With the Wind. Its set in the American South and tells the story of a strong heroine, Scarlett O Ha

29、ra, who struggles to find love during the Civil War and, afterwards, of her strength in surviving the war and its hardships.Love storyIn a moment of despair, Scarlett finally realizes that her love belongs to Rhett Butler. For many audiences, it is the theme of love and struggle that has kept the mo

30、vie alive. While the burning of Atlanta might seem irrelevant (不相关的) to todays viewers, the timeless theme of love keeps its ability to touch people.With a promise to her lover still in her mind, Scarlett chooses to stay in the midst of war and take care of Melanie.
