【难句分析】After a series of adventures where they capture demons，they start to understand one another's pains and heart, and finally solve their internal conflicts，working together to become the most united demonkilling team.
分析：该句为主从复合句。句中where they capture demons为where引导的定语从句，修饰先行词adventures；working together...team为现在分词短语作状语。

About three decades ago, China was known as the “Bicycle Kingdom”. But the twowheel way of transport's popularity began to fade, with many bikes soon replaced by their fuelpowered competitors.
But recent months have seen a revival of the bike across China, with an increasing number of people choosing to cycle instead of driving to schools, to workplaces or to do sightseeing. The introduction of bikesharing systems has brought the trend to a new level.
People can unlock the shared bikes by simply using their smartphones. The bikes are equipped with GPS and can be left anywhere in public for the next user. They're popular among many Chinese people as they provide an effective solution to the “last mile problem”， which refers to the final leg of a person's journey.
However, the systems have also led to problems such as illegal parking, damage and theft. Last month, two nurses in Beijing were placed under arrest for five days for putting locks on two shared bikes.
“Bikesharing is a greener method of transport and provides a userfriendly experience，” said Liu Xiaoming, viceminister of transport. “But it's a combination of online and offline business. Operators are usually strong in online services, but lack offline business experience, which causes problems.”
