Although many people read online, books have not gone out of fashion. In Beijing, Guangzhou and Shanghai, lucky passengers may find books somewhere on the underground.
The Fair, an online publishing company, has put 10 000 books on the underground, planes and in the taxis to make people more interested in reading. This project is called Mobook.
Mobook gets its idea from Books on the Underground, a community project in London. The purpose of Books on the Underground is to encourage people to read more. Zhang Wei, the CEO of the Fair also wanted to do something in China. He sent an e-mail to Ms. Cordelia Oxley, the leader of Books on the Underground, describing his plan and explaining the rules of Mobook. The leader replied to him in just two hours, saying that she thought the idea was great and she would offer help if needed.
But Mobook project is a little different from that in London. It has its own online system. People who want to donate books must give their information online. QR code stickers(二维码标签) are then sent to their addresses. The book owners should stick them on the books before donating them and readers can know where the books are from with the help of QR codes.
Mobook is a hot topic. Now thousands of bookworms have already taken part in the project. Zhang Wei said, "I am happy to see more and more people share their views about the books online and enjoy the happiness that reading brings to them."

四、书面表达
答案:
As far as I'm concerned, it is of great importance to stay calm when our parents and teachers remind or criticize us. I think it is beneficial for our lifelong development.
I still remember the day when I had an English class. Seeing Li Ming sleeping in class, our teacher, Miss Hu, woke him up and reminded him to listen to her carefully. To my surprise, Li Ming rushed out of the classroom without permission. It was so impolite to do so. Later, I talked with him and he realized that the teacher expected to help him develop a good habit and he wasn't calm at that time. Therefore, he picked up his courage and said sorry to Miss Hu.
In a word, it's a good idea to keep calm whenever we're reminded or criticized.
