 Topic1 Cab Driver StrikeTaxi drivers in many cities -- unhappy with steep rental1 fees and competition from taxi apps -- have gone on the biggest ever strike.

How serious is the problem?
Topic2 High salaries lure2 most young O2O freelancersFreelancing is basically being self-employed and not committed to any one company or firm.
In today's China, we are hearing more seemingly perfect freelance stories, and a recent report says over 80 percent of those born after 1990 aspire4 to work as freelancers3.

How common is it?
Topic4 Thick Resumes for Primary School KidsA primary school student has his own resume of over 100 pages. This is not an exaggeration, but a true story in Guangzhou.
Is it necessary?
Topic5 Social media 'likes' reveal your true personalityA new study suggests that a computer program that analyses your Facebook 'likes' may be a better judge of your personality than your closest friends and family.
