The world of taxi drivers is dominated by men. But there is one small taxi company in Delhi，where all the drivers and passengers are female. Women’s safety is a hot topic in India at the moment, so it's proving a very popular service.
“When I’m on the road driving our taxi I feel very proud，because this is the first taxi service only for women,” says 31yearold Shanti Sharma, who is one of eight female drivers with a taxi service called Cabs for Women by Women.
The last couple of months, since the rape and murder in the city of a college student travelling on a bus, have been particularly busy for her and her colleagues.
“After this case，our workload has increased so much,” says Sharma.“Women who used other cab services are also turning to us now.”
Most women in Delhi say they routinely face harassment(骚扰), and worse, especially on public transport.
Sharma, a single parent with three daughters, has been working as a taxi driver since 2011, when the service was first set up, and it has changed her life. This is the first time that she has earned enough—about 250 a month—to support her family.
Of course, she and the other female taxi drivers are completely outnumbered by male cabbies.“When I park somewhere there are always men there and inevitably five or six of them get together and hang out, ” she says.“I’m usually the only woman in the parking lot, so I just stay inside the car.”
It’s not much better when she is out on the road. Sharma says the male drivers give her a hard time.“As soon as they see a woman at the wheel they start honking(按喇叭) for no reason. They’ll try to overtake you. I’m always worrying about how to avoid getting hit by someone.”
The company behind Cabs for Women by Women, Sakha Consulting Wings, had a number of goals when it set up the service .It wanted to give women from poor backgrounds an opportunity to earn money. By putting women in charge of technologies, it also wanted to change people’s attitudes, and open up boundaries for women.

听力原文：M: It's so cold now, but this morning it was so hot and sunny. I wish there was a way! could always be wearing the most suitable clothes for the temperature.
W: I recently read that in ten years we'll be wearing clothes that change with the weather. So when it's cold, our clothes will warm up, and when it's hot, our clothes will cool off.
M: Oh, very funny! So we'll be wearing huge clothes with built-in air conditioners and heaters.
W: I'm being serious! Researchers have discovered a method of treating fibers with plastic crystals capable of storing and releasing heat as the temperature fluctuates. These treated fibers absorb more heat than untreated fibers. Researchers are still working with this, but soon this process will be widespread.
M: That's fascinating. I didn't know that fibers had the capability of storing heat. How does that work？
W: These fibers work with the heat by rearranging their structures. The treated fibers move back and forth between two solid shapes.
M: I don't understand. What kind of shapes do they change into？
W: When the weather gets warmer, the crystals take on cube shapes and absorb heat. When the weather gets cooler, the crystals become cooler and come back to their original structure.
M: That's truly unbelievable. You said that it'd be a decade before this type of clothes will be available, What a shame! I don't think I can wait that long.

There came a guest who had booked a standard room. But after checking, I found that there was no standard left. I checked the record of this guest, and found that he had always booked deluxe rooms.
I felt that it was perfect chance to up-sell. I checked the booked room with the guest, “Thank you very much for your reliance on our hotel, Mr. Gao. It’s my pleasure to serve you. This time, you have ordered a standard large-bed non-smoking for three nights, right？” “Yes.”
”I suggest you are on a business, right？ I’d like to suggest you try our executive floor. It’s newly decorated, and you will enjoy the top-level service. And there are many preferential treatments.”
“Really？ Then what preferential treatments can I have if I take that？”
“Mr. Gao, you need to use the internet to deal with you business, right？ The Internet service is not free, but you may have one-hour free Internet use each day if you take the ECF. In addition, 80 yuan’s free laundry service, 6 tins of free soft drinks, and so on. And for all of these, you will only need to pay another 20 yuan.”
Here I stopped to observe the reaction of the guest. He kept silence for a while, looking hesitated. Then I said. “Maybe your concern is not how much you will pay, but rather whether the room is worth the price. Would you like to make your decision after having a look at the show room？”
The guest felt very hard to turn down my warm-hearted offer, so he decided to take an executive room for three nights.
