今年5－8月的雅思口语新题当中有这么一张卡片，让许多考生头疼不已。

　　Describe a person who gave a clever solution to a problem.

　　Who the person is

　　When and where it happened

　　What the problem was

　　And explain why it was a clever solution

　　环球教育罗恬老师结合实例为大家解析如下：

　　Problem不难想到，生活中处处都是problem。难想的是clever solution，还要解释清楚了这个solution聪明的地方在哪里。坦白说这个话题笔者也想了很长时间，有一些备选的素材，但要么就是背景信息太多不好表达，要么就是晦涩难懂，学生比较难消化。

　　直到昨天，笔者吃完晚饭，想要从餐厅走到地铁站的时候发现，1公里多的路程，走起来要15-20分钟。打车太近，走路又太远。这个时候看见路边的mobike单车，扫码，骑走，到地铁站一共才花了5分钟不到，还很轻松。笔者觉得mobike就是一个clever solution。解决了我们出行不方便的问题。

　　确定了大方向，接下来就是细节的问题了，Who is the clever person? The founder of Mobike. 简单地浏览了一下关于摩拜单车的新闻后，我获得一些重点信息，用来回答这个题目。

　　The clever person I'd like to talk about today is Huweiwei, the founder and CEO of Mobike Technology. She is a young entrepreneur in her 30s. Born in Zhejiang province and spent most of her time in her 20s working as a journalist, Weiwei decided to quit her job and create Mobike when she was 32.

　　这个聪明的人叫胡玮玮，浙江人，创业之前一直在北京媒体行业从事记者的工作。

　　The company called Mobike Technology was established by her in January, 2015. A few months later, they had their own factory in Beijing. It is the first well-known bike-sharing company in China.

　　2015年，她在北京成立了摩拜科技，数月后又建立了厂房。

　　I've watched an interview with Weiwei, she said in the video that the traffic is surprisingly terrible in Beijing. The horrible traffic jams in rush hours is just one thing, what made her more frustrated was the inconvenient public transportation. Only a few people can live close to the metro stations, and the shuttle buses between metro stations and residential areas are quite limited. Every morning, she had to order a taxi to the station, it was a torture for her to spend such a long time on transport. That's when she started to realize, bicycle seems to be the only solution to the problem.

　　曾经看过一个她的采访，在采访当中她有坦言说出为何会创建摩拜的原因：北京的公共交通不方便，出行难，地铁站距离目的地太远都是亟待解决的问题。

　　Mobike is indeed a clever solution and invention. It's different from other shared bikes, firstly because of its weather-sensible design, including plastic wheels and airless tires. It can withstand the raining seasons in most of the big cities in China, like Shanghai's plum rains.

　　It has solved most of the problems caused by the inconvenient public transportation in big cities in China. You don't have to wait in the traffic jams, if you can find a mobike nearby and scan it with your smart phone.

　　More importantly, it is a win-win solution, not only did it solve people's traffic problems, it has positive effects on the environment. That's why the government has been funding the company ever since it was established.

　　分析这个解决方案聪明的时候我一共找了三个切入点：一是单车的设计聪明，用了塑料材质和不用充气的轮胎；二是它在解决了出行难的问题的同时还解决了交通拥堵；最后，它还是一个双赢的策略，政府也得以缓解环境污染的问题。
