D(2026·江苏盐城一模)
Many of us may have experienced the pleasant moment of seeing recommended songs after we listened to some songs on a music app. When we open shopping websites, we often see things we want to buy on the home page. If you want to take a taxi on a taxi app, it can even guess where you want to go before you tell it! Aren’t these things amazing?
This is based on data(数据). Data is no longer only about numbers, but information from almost every side of our lives: our shopping habits, interests or what we eat. All of this is called “big data”. China is speeding up its big data strategy(策略) to better serve social and economic(经济的) development. As a result, people’s lives can be improved as well. It is also expected that there will be greater use of big data in areas like education, social safety and medical treatment.
We have seen big data being used more often in China in the past few years. The use of it in tourism(旅游业) is just one example. Many travellers today like to share their experiences with others on the internet. All the data that travellers share online is helping the tourism industry get a lot of information. After the data is analyzed(分析), these tour sights and service providers can better understand travellers’ needs. So services will be improved, which is helpful to the development of the whole industry. As a result, travellers can expect better tours in the future.
Moreover, big data is also an important growth tool for economic development. With a growth rate of 30 per cent every year, sales of the big data industry in China will reach one trillion(万亿) yuan yearly by 2030. Having so many positive influences, big data is sure to be seen more and more in China.
