@ nead the passage. What problems did the writer come across
I've studied in China for a year and now it's the Christmas holiday,
I've been back in the UK for three days, but it feels like a century!
It's amazing to see my family. Also, I really love Christmas and
the delicious food. However, I've had some digital problems
here.,.*r
2 Today, I wanted to get some vegetables and meat from a shop. I
decided to ride a shared bike to get there. But it took forever to
find a bike! I finally found an old one. But that ls-minute ride cost
me an arm and a leg - more than five pounds!

3 In the shop, I quickly got everything I needed. I
wanted to pay with my smartphone. I asked the
shopkeeper to show the QR code, but she didn't
understand! Next, I tried to use my digital wallet,
but the shop's payment system didn't work.
The shopkeeper told me to use cash. As I
always make digital payments in China, I
never carry my wallet. I had to go home to get
some cash.
4 When I got home, I was so tired that

I gave up on cooking. I ordered my
favourite dishes through an app instead,
but the delivery was really slow. When
my dishes finally arrived 90 minutes latet
they were stone cold! I had to heat them
one by one in the oven. I felt tired and
hungry.
s Except for today, I've had a great holiday.
However, I'm looking forward to going
back to China. The technology there lets
me live a more convenient life!
