Life is like four seasons. Now I am very old, but when I was young, it was the spring of my life. I was born, I played a lot, and then I started school. I learnt many new things. Like a flower, I grew bigger every day. There were happy days and sorrowful days: some days the sun shone, and some days it didn’t.

In my twenties, I had a good job. I was strong and happy. Then I married and had a child. In those days, I didn’t have much time to think. Every day I was busy and worked very hard. And so, I started to get some white hair. The summer of my life passed quickly.

Then the days got shorter. Leaves fell from the trees. My child was a university student, and then an engineer. My home was much quieter. I started walking more slowly. One day I stopped walking. I had more time. I understood this was my autumn, a beautiful time when the trees change color and give us delicious fruits.

But the days kept getting shorter and colder. Winter has come. I am getting older and older. I know I do not have many days left, but I will enjoy them to the end and try to make my winter a warm one.

Many things can be shared these days, such as bikes, cars and chargers. Now a “sharing bookstore” has also come out.

Sanxiaokou Xinhua Bookstore, the world's first sharing bookstore, opened on July 16 in Hefei, Anhui province, according to China News. It sells books as normal bookstores. But at the same time, it allows readers to take books home for free to read after paying a 99 yuan deposit(押金).They can borrow two books in 10 days by scanning an OR code(二維碼) on the book.

The bookstore is quite popular among the city’s readers. By Aug 26, more than 100,000 books had been borrowed. The number of visitors to the bookstores has also grown by 50 percent. The bookstore is going to open nine more stores in other places of the city.

But some people question that these sharing bookstores are just like a library.

“Although the two both rent books, sharing bookstores have more kinds of books,” Xu Xinwei, the store’s deputy manage(副店長(zhǎng)), told China News. “We also renew(更新) our book selection more often than libraries.”

1.Sanxiaokou Xinhua Bookstore in Hefei is not the world's first sharing bookstore.

2.You need to pay for the books that you take home in the sharing bookstore.

3.Not many people like this sharing bookstore.

4.The libraries renew books more often than the sharing bookstore.

5.There will be 10 sharing bookstores including(包括) Sanxaokou Xinhua bookstore.
