2014高考英语二轮复习专题步步提升：阅读理解 阅读理解 A With limited pocket money in hand，many Chinese college students are increasingly opting to live life “low cost”．One way to save money is team-buying.Online team-buying offers huge discounts and becomes popular on campus. Li Jing，a student at China Youth University for Political Sciences，for example，says she often buys movie tickets on team-buying websites.But while they offer a good opportunity to save money，Li said she would “think twice before buying them from online stores”．Because many of them are “a bit chaotic (混乱的)”，and have fake goods mixed among them.Then why don’t the students just earn more pocket money by taking up part-time jobs？Guo Na，a teacher at the Communication University of China，said most college students were unlikely to choose work-study programs to earn pocket money because of their intensive study schedules. A kind of card called “VELO” has become another ideal choice for many money savers.It provides all-round discounts while dining out or shopping in general.Cao Zuyang，a student at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China，often searches for sales online and buys things together with friends to cut down on costs.Cao once wanted to buy an electro-magnetic oven (电磁炉)，which was on sale at a shopping website.He then asked five dormitory roommates to pitch in for the oven.Each student only paid 25 yuan. Most students find it difficult to deal with the expense of accommodation while traveling.So they choose to travel to cities where they have friends and live in their dorms.For instance，Ge Rui，a student at the Hebei University of Technology，has been to many cities where he has friends.“Friends can act as free guides，offer me free accommodation，give me valuable tour information，and broaden my mind at the same time，” he said.He also had friends from other cities coming over and living with him when they visited his city. 1．What does the writer mainly tell us?
