Suddenly I wasn’t unhappy and impatient any more. Then I 5 my granddad. I loved to talk with him. And I was 6 to hear what he’d think of it. He had poor hearing, so I had to 7 it a few times, but once he 8 it, he laughed. ＂All I can say to that is totally 9 ,＂ he said on the phone. I told him how glad I was, after a long winter, to finally see spring and 10 to find that quote. ＂Why is that?＂ he asked. ＂
Well, spring is a sure 11

my husband and I drove across a desert with many wildflowers and blooming(盛开的) cactuses, I could 17

易) over the Internet, or with smart cards that are linked to a bank account. More and more people are also using mobile phones to make such transactions. E-money can be used anytime and anywhere. It is probably the best form of money to use for international transactions, as th
ere are no hassles (麻
烦) of currency exchange. It is more reliable, faster than paper checks and drafts (汇
票), and has low costs of transactions. Today, with e-money becoming more popular, banks are competing to reduce transfer costs and provide account holders with good deals. If you send someone a check, it will take a few days to clear. But with an online money transaction, the money reaches the other person’s account almost instantly. These transactions can be made after the bank has closed, and even on holidays. When you carry a large amount of money, there is always a chance of it being lost or stolen. E-money is safer than currency in this regard. Every transaction requires you to provide a personal identification number (PIN) for the payment to be completed. Electronic funds transfers can be more secure than cash or check transactions. All you have to do is take some simple precautions to make sure that your card or online account is not misused.
Each and every transaction made with electronic money is recorded in the bank’s and the user’s online records. These records have all the essential information about the transaction: the name of the payer, the name of the receiver, and the date, place and time it took place. This makes it more dependable, a
nd users can access their record of transactions at any time of the day.
1.How many means of e-money transactions are mentioned in the passage?
A.1 B.2 C.3 D.4
2.What does a payer have to provide to complete an e-money transaction?
A. The receiver’s bank account.
B. The payer’s mobile phone number. C. The name of the receiver.
D. The personal identification number.
3.What’s the writer’s purpose of writing this passage? A. To explain how to use e-money. B. To show how popular e-money is.
C. To introduce the advantages of e-money. D. To persuade more people to use e-money.
4.How does the author introduce the features of e-money? A. By using statistics. B. By making comparisons.
C. By giving examples. D. By listing cat
egories.
