But Shanghai is trying to bring new life to the old phone booths, by turning them into mini libraries.Shanghai plans to divide 263 phone booths in Xuhui district into six newtypes. One type will each offer 60 books for people to read or borrow. A second typewill allow users to listen to audiobooks(有声书) and even record their own voices.

Strangely enough, you see no staff inside. You pick up things and prepare to wait in line and pay. But even more oddly, there is no cashier(收银员) at all. So what has happened to this store?Well, you may have entered Tao cafe, a cashless(无现金的) store created by Chinese e-commercial giant Alibaba. In July the public got to see the store for the first time at Alibaba's Taobao Maker Festival inHangzhou.The 200-square-meter store sells drinks, fast food and snacks. It can hold up to 50 shoppers at a time. To enter and shop people only need a smartphone with a Taobao app and an Alipay account.By scanning their Taobao QR code, shoppers are followed with cameras for facial recognition(面部识别). The store has also digitalized(数字化) all goods and their placement on the shelves. So when shoppers pick up goods, the system will be able to watch and remember their selection(选择).When shoppers are ready to leave, they don't wait in line to pay. Instead they go through two checkout doors. Then the bills will automatically be paid with a Taobao account connected to Alipay.According to Alibaba, the checkout machines can recognize goods, even when shoppers put them in pockets or bags. So it is almost impossible to steal things from the store.Taobao cafe is not the only cashless store in China. A 24-hour convenience store with no staff called Bingo Box opened in Shanghai in June. To enter the store, shoppers scan a QR code on WeChat or Alipay. But unlike the Tao cafe, they have to scan another QR code to leave the Bingo Box.( )42.Tao Cafe is famous as ______.A. a coffee shopB. a cashless storeC. an online storeD.
