A

Some photographers have the good fortune to find a mentor in their young years who both inspires and encourages them. Jessica Backhaus found one in Gisele Freund, the great French photographer remembered for her portraits (肖像) of artists, especially writers. Gisele was a wonderful, sensitive portraitist whose pictures of Virginia Woolf, Andre Gide, James Joyce, George Bernard Shaw, Jean Cocteau, and a long list of well-known artists are unforgettable.

Jessica, a young photographer from Germany, was studying photography in Paris when she met the famous Gisele Freund, on November 5, 1992. Slowly a friendship developed, lasting until

Gisele’s death, in 2000; and in a way it still continues today. Gisele was generous in her concern for a new generation of photographers, and Jessica took to heart her advice to forget about technique and to take pictures with her eyes and heart. To thank her, Jessica decided to take the series of pictures published in the book One Day in November.

One day, before Jessica moved to New York, Gisele suggested that she write about their friendship. The book One Day in November begins with Jessica’s essay on their shared memories and conversations, followed by her photographs. She calls it a visual poem, pointing out that she expresses herself best in pictures rather than words.

The excellent photographs from her book can be seen in a splendid exhibition at Laurence Miller Gallery, along with a series of pictures from three of her other books: Jesus and the Cherries, portraits taken in a Polish village where time stood still; What Still Remains, pictures of objects left behind; and a new book of light reflections on water, I Wanted to See the World. All are guided by Gisele’s advice and all are quite wonderful.

21. The underlined word “one” in Paragraph 1 refers to .

A. a responsible friend

B. a well-known artist

C. an inspiring instructor

D. an experienced photographer

22. What can we learn about the book One Day in November from the passage?

A. It begins with photographs and ends with an essay.

B. It talks about the friendship between Jessica and Gisele.

C. It collects poems that provide readers with a visual feast.

D. It contains portraits taken in a village where time stood still.

23. What is the passage mainly about?

A. Jessica’s memories of Gisele.

B. Gisele’s influence on Jessica.

C. The photographs taken by Gisele.

D. The achievements made by Jessica.

B

BEIJING—More Chinese consumers prefer to make payments via smart devices as mobile apps have made purchases much easier, but security concerns remain, a PwC report said.

Nearly one-third of respondents in China chose mobile payment when shopping last year, doubling from 16 percent in 2014, according to the accounting firm’s global retail (零售) survey. The figu re appeared much higher than the world’s average of 12 percent.

The popularity comes as a result of rapid growth of mobile payment options and an expanding mobile network, the report said.

Chinese have started to enjoy a wide range of mobile payment options that allow faster, securer payment through near field communication and QR code. Moreover, more advances have been seen in biometric technology, such as the use of fingerprints and facial recognition.

“As competition becomes fierce, mobile payment player s are trying to attract users through the continuous development of technology and business models,” said Yuqing Guo, PwC China’s financial service consulting partner, adding that the technology is changing the way consumers assess and purchase products.

But security problems are rising. Data security was still seen as a huge problem, with leak of user information, payment fraud (诈骗) and virus attacks appearing as the three biggest challenges for the rapid growing field. The PwC report said over 60 percent of respondents were worried that their personal information was not safe.

Chinese government has introduced a series of policies to strengthen strict supervision (监督). In the meantime, people should avoid scanning QR codes from unknown sources and raise awareness of fraudulence.

The field still has vast space for growth due to technological advances and the rise of the tech-savv y younger generation, the report said, predicting China’s retail and consumer product industry will post an annual growth rate of 7.5 percent between 2016 and 2020.

24. According to the passage, more Chinese people favor mobile payment because .

A. it ensures the absolute security of purchases

B. it provides them with various options of items

C. it guarantees faster delivery than cash payment

D. it helps them purchase products more conveniently

25. To keep their personal information safe, consumers are advised .

A. to learn more knowledge about virus attacks

B. to cut down the chance of using mobile apps

C. to increase supervision over mobile payment

D. to check the sources before scanning QR codes

26. In which section of a newspaper does the passage probably appear?
