Given the advantages of electronic money, you might think that we would move quickly to the cashless society in which all payments are made electronically. A true cashless society,【C1】________ , is probably not around the corner. For example, Business Week predicted in 1975 that electronic means of payment "would soon revolutionize the very concept of money itself," only to【C2】________ itself several years later. Why has the movement to a(n)__【C3】________ society been so slow in coming?

First, it is very expensive to set up the computer, card reader, and telecommunications networks necessary to make electronic money the【C5】________ form of payment. Second, paper checks have the advantage that they【C6】________ receipts, something that many consumers are unwilling to give up. Third, the use of paper checks gives consumers several days of "float" — it takes several days before a check is cashed and funds are【C7】________ from the issuer’s account, which means that the writer of the check can earn interest on the funds in the meantime. They eliminate the float for the consumer【C8】________ electronic payments are immediate. Fourth, electronic means of payment raise security and privacy concerns. We often hear media reports that an unauthorized hacker has been able to access a computer database.
Although a whole new field of computer science has developed to【C9】________ with security issues, a further concern is that the use of electronic means of payment leaves an electronic【C10】________ that contains a large amount of personal data on buying habits. There are worries that government, employers, and marketers might be able to access these data, thereby eating into our privacy.

选项
答案
A
解析
这里考查连词的应用。空格的前后句存在因果逻辑关系,即“因为电子支付是即付的,所以消除了客户付款的‘浮动期’”,故选because。
