Matter
Look at all the things around us: chairs, desks, cupboards, papers and pens in our classroom; motor cars, bicycles and buses in the streets; trees, plants and animals in the countryside; birds, aeroplanes and clouds in the sky; fishes, seaweeds and corals in the sea; stars, the moon and the sun in outer space. These and all other things including the human body, are examples of matter. Matter is anything that takes up space and has weight.

But there are signs that the sharing site (住房分享网站) is starting to threaten budget hotels.
Even as they lobby regulators to crack down on residential sharing services, hoteliers play down the threat such companies pose to their industry. The top brass at the Four Seasons and Hilton chains have all said that these firms do not compete for their core market; a vice-president of The Ritz-Carlton group recently claimed she had not even heard of Airbnb. And Airbnb itself agrees, arguing that it does not displace existing lodging but is creating new demand. "I’m optimistic that there isn’t going to be a war" with hotels, Brian Chesky, its boss, said in January.
A recent study seems to confirm that, for now at least, Airbnb is only nibbling at influence from Airbnb on business and luxury hotels. But in places where it has established a presence, it cut the revenues of budget hotels by 5% in the two years to December 2013.
