Cash of all kinds, the French franc, the German mark, and the Italian lira, is bound to disappear physically. The paper notes and gold coins may soon become curious collections of the pre-electronic age. Digital money can replace every use of cash money. It is true that electronic money has been around for decades. Each week billions of institutional dollars flow through the Interbank Payment System through telephone wires and satellite links. But in the 21st century, entirely new forms of digital money - including electronic cash and "computerized" smart cards - will become the means of most personal financial trade. What a great change this will be! Digital credit cards, smart cards, electronic wallets and electronic checks will change our way of life in the 21st century. They are efficient and easy to use. Customers will not take money with them when they go shopping. They will pay their'bills from a smart cell phone or they will buy their coffee by using a digital credit card. How convenient it will be!
And how easily people will do their shopping in such a way!
With so many changes these days, the Internet will help speed up the end of cash.
In Europe, some banks have been offering people electronic cash since late last year. Customers can withdraw money from their accounts through the bank's website and store their incomes on their home PCs. As the electronic cash is downloaded, the customers' bank accounts are recorded. Since customers can use electronic cash to buy things on the Internet, electronic cash will transform the Internet into a global marketplace for everything. It is going to have a very big impact on our lives.
The low cost of computer and communications has created a worldwide medium not just for finance, but also for many other things in our life. The Age of Internet has brought e-businesses to our life, which perhaps will form the backbone of our economy. Mom and Pop can go global - all from the comfort of their easy chairs. Citizens will have access to e-government with its website offering a wide range of governmental information, policy andservices.
Racing into the 21st Century, people all over the world are building up a series of IT projects,
which is surely a part of the global future. People all over the world have been working for a brilliant future for centuries and it now seems the dream mislht come true verv soon
31. The main point of the first paragraph in this passage is
A. the value of the paper notes and gold coins will lie in collections
B. money has been around for decades
C. entire new forms of digital money will replace cash money
D. cash of all kinds is bound to disappear slowly
32. The advantage of digital money is
A. it is efficient and easy to use
B. it will change our way of life in the 21st century
C. it can replace every use of cash money
D. people will do their shopping very easily
33. What is NOT true about the electronic cash, accorcling to the passage
A. It will turn the Internet into a global marketplace where one can buy everything.
B. The electronic cash can be downloaded and the money withdrawn is recorded.
C. People can buy anything worldwide by sitting comfortably in their . People don't have to pay for anything when they go shopping the sentence of the fourth paragraph, "The low cost of computer and
communications has created a worldwide medium not for finance...", "a
worldwide medium" refers to
A. a worldwide market

Another reason people enjoy home cooking is that it is often a way of showing love. A parent who makes some cookies is not just satisfying a child's sweet tooth. She or he is sending a message. The message says, "I care about you enough to spend an hour cooking what you will eat

Is It Better to Buy or Rent? The price of housing has kept increasing in recent years, which causes a big headache for people living in cities. A lot of people cannot afford to own a real estate property, so they choose to rent instead of buying an apartment. This group of people does not want to bear burden of mortgage so that they opt for a practical solution. Renting an apartment makes them have a place to stay and thus they can focus on work as well as personal life. Some other people, however, believe that an apartment owned by themselves makes them feel safe and relieved, so they are willing to sacrifice some other aspects of life to borrow money from the bank to buy an apartment. As far as I am concerned, to buy or to rent is all about it will be better to rent first and wait for the good timing when the price is going down to buy. Topic 2: On Job Hopping It seems that nowadays, very few young people are willing to stay in a job position for long, let alone for the whole life. They change jobs constantly. This results from several factors. Firstly, young people like fresh things, and it is easy for them to be fed up with old routine work. So when they stay in a position for a while,the excitement will fade out. They are quite realistic and not willing to waste time in a job they are not interested in. Thirdly, some young people are not satisfied with current salary, believing they deserve better pay. In my opinion, constant job hopping will not benefit young people in their career development. Every job has its own merits and young people can certainly learn something from it as long as they are patient and wise enough. Every job experience is valuable down the career path and young people shall be able to make the most of it. Topic 3: Online Social Network Modern people will be no stranger to online social network. Facebook, Renren and Kaixin001 are probably the most populous networks among Chinese netizen. In these networks, people interact with each other, be it a stranger or a friend, and have a lot of fun in the virtual world. This phenomenon could be a result of the fast development of the Internet and people's great interest of the virtual world. I think it is a very good new platform for people to keep in touch. But it should not be overused. Firstly, some people are addicted to it, which makes them want to get online 24 hours a day. When people spend too much time on one thing,they will naturally have not enough time for study and for work. Secondly, online social network change people's behavior of interacting with others. In virtual world, you just click the mouse and type in words instead of having a face-to-face talk. This will not benefit people's long term friendship, and even harm their interpersonal relationships in real world.

He was acknowledging one of our most distinctive characteristics：the fact that we are social animals whose behavior and personalities are shaped by the groups to which we belong. Throughout life，most of our daily activities are performed in the company of others. Whether our purpose is working，playing，raising a family，learning，or simply relaxing，we usually pursue it in groups，even if the group is as small as two or three people. Out need for human contacts is not merely a practical one；it is a deep psychological need as well. If people are deprived of the company of others for prolonged periods，mental breakdown is the usual result. Even the Geneva Convention（日内瓦公约），an international agreement that regulates the treatment of prisoners of war，recognizes this need. It regards solitary （孤独的）imprisonment for more than thirty day as a cruel form of torture（折磨）。 In its strictest sense， a group is a collection of people interacting together in an orderly way on the basis of shared expe ctations about one another‘s behavior. As result of this interaction，members feel a common sense of“belonging.”They distinguish members from nonmembers and expect certain kinds of behavior from outsiders. 21.By“No man is an island，”John Donne means _____. A.no one can live on an island alone B.a man is not surrounded by sea on all sides C.a man and an island are irrelevan D.no one can live in isolation from other people 22.The fact that we work or even play in groups illustrates the point that ____. A.poeple are different from animals B.Donne recognized the group to which he belonged C.human beings are social animals D.human behavior and personalities are formed by others 23.“Breakdown”as used in Line 6，Paragraph 2 most probably denotes ____. A.separation B.collapse C.analysis D.function 24.According to the passage，what is NOT a characteristic of group？ A.There are at least two people in it. B.The members share some common grounds. C.The members work for one purpose. D.The members interact regularly with each other. 25.This passage is mainly about _______. A.the importance of human contacts B.pattens of human behavior C.the importance of human activities D.patterns of human society Passage Two Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
