Piglet was the only one to come up with an answer for Question 5.  th_bf

Not sure if I can say that 'cooking oil' is the right answer. The cheap cooking oil in China has been recycled so many times that I doubt it has any bang left in it.

Maybe we need an easier question. Try this one:

Technology in China - Test for Advanced Students

Question 6.

What is the function of the device attached with blue tape to the motorbike?

Yes! Give the man a chocolate fish!

The player was putting out a big sound down a back lane in the village. The owner, who was nowhere to be seen, may well have been studying IELTS but I think it is more likely he was in restaurant, a block away, drinking baiju while listening to the music.

Congratulations! You are the lucky winner of dinner for 2 at the restaurant mounted on the back of this motorbike. Your prize may be claimed as soon as we locate its current location.

To be honest I am still not sure what the engine is running on. Cooking oil is a possibility ... but I still wonder about that 2nd hose running off the domestic gas bottle  th_m    th_ag
