Cash is unlikely to go away soon. Coins and paper【C1】________remain the most popular ways to pay for things in most countries. But in the long term, cash appears to be in a【C2】________battle with electronic payment methods.
There are few corners of the world where electronic【C3】________are not growing faster than cash. But the movement away from cash is happening in very different ways and at【C4】________paces around the world.
Scandinavian (斯堪的纳维亚的) countries are already well along the road toward【C5】________societies. Many banks in Sweden no longer have cash on hand, and consumers can make instant transfers directly from their bank accounts.
In Kenya, the local mobile phone company Safaricom, not the banks or the government, has pushed the envelope. Safaricom created a system, known as M-Pesa, that allows customers to make payments【C6】________from their phones.
The【C7】________of moving away from cash have been trumpeted (鼓吹) by economists like Kenneth Rogoff, who wrote The Curse of Cash, about how paper money enables【C8】________and tax evasion.
But the critics of cash have been met by their own critics, who argue that electronic payments can disenfranchise (剥夺某人的权利) poor people who【C9】________easy access to bank accounts and the internet and can make it much easier for governments and corporations to monitor a person’s every step.
In the end, though, the future of money is less likely to be determined by these arguments than to be【C10】________by the success of technologists making it easier for you to pay for your lunch or morning coffee without pulling out your wallet.
A) adequately I) enlightening
B) benefits J) lack
C) cashless K) losing
D) crime L) shaped
E) currency M) transactions
F) democratic N) varying
G) directly O) witnessed
H) disadvantages [br] 【C5】
选项
答案
C
解析
空格前是介词toward,后面是名词societies,因此应填入形容词修饰societies。上文提到世界各地电子交易的发展,该段和下一段分别以斯堪的纳维亚国家瑞典和非洲国家肯尼亚为例具体说明。由此可知,本句讲述的是斯堪的纳维亚国家的电子交易发展,故此处应选择与“电子交易”含义相关的形容词,所以C)cashless“不用现金的,无现金的”为答案,表明斯堪的纳维亚国家已经成功地迈向无现金社会。
