解析
词义辨析【直击答案】本题空格所在句为Third,the use of paper checks gives consumers several days of“float”11 it takes several days check is cashed。本句是来解释“float(浮动的)”。联系日常生活中支票兑换现金流程,空格处句意为“需要花几天时间纸支票才能兑现”。A项before“在……之前”。结合上下文意思,很明显只有A项符合语境。【命题思路】本题考查考生对表达时间概念的连词的掌握和应用。【干扰排除】B项after“在……之后”,C项since“自从……”。D项when“当……的时候”。本题所给四个答案都和时间有关系,但干扰程度不强。
