If you ask me what my favorite sport is， my answer is swimming． I started learning how to swim when I was five years old． I have been swimming ever since．

In summer， swimming can be a nice， refreshing （恢复精力的） break! There's nothing better than jumping into the water on a hot summer's day． You can choose to swim in a swimming pool or in the sea．

③The boy and his father looked at the handsome fish， the fish jumped up and down in the moonlight． The father looked at his watch． It was 10 P． M．﹣two hours before the season opened． He looked at the fish， then at the boy． "You will have to put it back， my son．" he said．" I have never seen such a big fish before．" cried the boy" There will be other fish．" said his father． The boy looked around the lake． No other fishermen or boats were anywhere around in the moonlight． He looked again at his father． Even though no one had seen them， nor could anyone ever know what time he caught the fish， the boy could tell by his father's voice that the decision couldn't be changed． He slowly worked the hook out of the lip of the huge bass and lowered it into the water．

Do you shop online with websites like Taobao？ The money you pay doesn't go directly to the seller． Instead， it goes through Alipay， which keeps your money for a while． After you receive your goods and click the "confirm receipt" button， Alipay then gives the money to the seller．
The process is called "third party online payment"． There is a transfer station， or a third account， between sellers and buyers to make online shopping safe． Buyers don't need to worry about paying for goods and then receiving nothing． Sellers also get rid of the risk of receiving no money after sending out goods．
These transfer stations are usually set up by payment service companies such as Alipay， Tenpay and Yeepay． Among them， Alipay is the biggest in China． It has more than 270 million active users， according to Xinhua．
While most online sellers and shoppers like the third party online payment system， banks are not very happy． That is because companies like Alipay are fighting over money with the banks． Users can invest in financial products through Alipay and make money． Thus lots of people choose to put money in Alipay rather than in banks．
But WeChat payment is not the same． WeChat doesn't have its own account． When paying through WeChat， the buyers' money goes directly to the sellers． That's why so many people are excited about receiving and handing out "red envelopes" or gift money to their friends on WeChat，
Whether Alipay or WeChat payment， they are all trying to attract more users and make online shopping easier． These two companies are also promoting payments through fingerprints． New payment methods such as quick response codes have become popular too．
