Topic 1-How far is China from a cashless society?
 
We used to think a cashless society as something that is way off in the distant future. But that is simply not the case. The truth is that a cashless society is much closer than most people would ever dare to imagine.
 
Now, many Chinese people say cash is no longer necessary, mobile payment methods are just as good if not better.
 
How far are we from a no-cash society?
 
Topic 2-More people go freelacing
 
In the past, holding a permanent, full-time 1 job was the main way to earn a living. But times are changing. If you're craving 2 increased career flexibility 3, you're in luck; more people have become freelancers 4 so they are more in charge of their work.
 
Topic 3-What are the disadvantages of being TOO nice to people
 
If you are nice to others, people will be nice to you. That's common sense. Sometimes though, being overly nice isn't always the best policy. We can attract the wrong kinds of people by being nice all the time.
 
How do you know if you are TOO nice and qualify as a pushover? Though there was broad agreement that kindness is always a virtue 5, a consensus 6 emerged that there also is such a thing as too nice.
