All the nicknames increase the charm of Los Angeles D Thousands of taxi drivers in Shenyang, Liaoning province, reportedly blocked streets with their cars on Sunday in protest against unlicensed cars using taxihiring apps (打车软件 ) and appsbased car rental panies providing passenger services, including highend cars. Although the drivers also plained about the withdrawal of the fuel subsidy(补贴 ) by the government, their main plaint was the loss of business because of the rising number of Interbased car services panies.

For example, Didi Zhuanche works side by side with established car rental panies to provide highend car service mainly for businesspeople through the Inter and mobile phone apps. Every link in this business model chain has legal panies and services. Hence, it is hard to define it as illegal and ban it.[ZXK] 33.

Because they wanted to be taught how to use the taxihiring apps. C. Because they wanted to make their main plaints known to the authority. D. Because they wanted to appeal to passengers not to hire the private cars. 34. The author’s attitude to banning inter car hiring service is______.
