Directions:Read the following text. Choose the best word (s) for each numbered blank and mark A, B, C or D on the ANSWER SHEET. (10 points) 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. 1 a true cashless society is probably not around the corner. Indeed, predictions have been 2 for two decades but have not yet come to fruition. For example, Business Week predicted in 1975 that electronic means of payment would soon “revolutionize the very 3 of money itself,” only to 4 itself several years later. Why has the movement to a cashless society been so 5 in coming? Although electronic means of payment may be more efficient than a payments system based on paper, several factors work 6the disappearance of the paper system. First, it is very 7 to set up the computer, card reader, and telecommunications networks necessary to make electronic money the 8 form of payment. Second, paper checks have the advantage that they 9 receipts, something that many consumers are unwilling to 10 Third, the use of paper checks gives consumers several days of “float”—it takes several days 11 a check is cashed and funds are 12 from the issuer’s account, which means that the writer of the check can earn interest on the funds in the meantime. 13 electronic payments are immediate, they eliminate the float for the consumer. Fourth, electronic means of payment may 14 security and privacy concerns. We often hear media reports that an unauthorized hacker has been able to access a computer database and to alter information 15 there.

The 18 of this type of fraud is no easy task, and a new field of computer science is developing to 19 security issues. A further concern is that the use of electronic means of payment leaves an electronic 20 that contains a large amount of personal data. There are concerns that government, employers, and marketers might be able to access these data, thereby violating our privacy.
选项
1.______ A.Moreover B.However C.Therefore D.Otherwise
答案
B
解析
本题考查的是考生对上下文逻辑关系的判断能力。本文首句提出电子货币有很多好处,所以有人认为我们会很快进入无纸币社会,一切支付都可以通过电子形式完成。而本句中的probably not around the corner意为真正无现钞的社会“恐怕没那么快实现”。因此两句之间应填入表示转折关系的副词。however意为“然而,但是”,表示句间转折关系。moreover意为“此外,而且”,表示句间递进关系。therefore意为“因此,所以”,表示句间因果关系。otherwise意为“否则,不然”,表示否定的条件关系。故B项为正确答案。
