Though it is still too early to know what will happen to the businesses that won the competition (Visa has not announced the winners yet), the key arguments in favor of cashabandonment are that it would lead to more efficientservice and carry a lower risk of theft. A recent Ne w York Times article covered restaurants in Manhattan that take plastic only, and supporters are looking forward to an entirely cashless society.Doing away with cash may indeed sound appealing. Supporters often note that China and India have already gone further in this direction than the United States. But a few drawbacks are obvious: Card companies such as Visa charge merchants high processing fees, the risk of fraud(诈骗) balances out the lower risk of theft, older consumers may not wish to make the change, and consumers will lose yet more privacy (large companies will have the ability to track every purchase made). Perhaps the less obvious one is that a cashless system will exclude the poor and the near-poor, for many poor people don’t have credit cards or bank accounts.Conditions in the U.S. are nowhere near suitable for entering a cashless society; too many people would be left behind. Your young friend may be happy to accept money via PayPal or another app, your cafe may use an iPad instead of a cash register, but landlords in lowincome areas still prefer money orders. It’s convenient for consumers to charge, say, an outing to the nail salon—but when you add the tip to your credit card bill, it may never make it to the worker.1.Why did Visa hold the competition?A.To support small businesses.B.To attract more users.C.To promote cashabandonment.D.To reward successful businesses.2.Which is the disadvantage of a cashless society according to the author?A.The risk of fraud is lower than that of theft.B.Consumers’privacy has more potential risks.C.More plastic is used and causes resource waste.D.The poor and the near-poor are unwilling to use cash.3.Who would probably prefer to be paid in cash?A.A landlord in a developed area.B.A cafe owner.C.A young person.D.A worker in a nail salon.第三组Ⅰ.单项填空1.B解析:考查动词的时态。
高一英语限时练习第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分26分)第一节(共8小题;每小题2分,满分16分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
AAt least 200 elephants have died in Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe in the past two months due to a serious drought in the country. National Parks and Wildlife Management Authority spokesman Tinashe Farawo told the Associated Press. Other animals,including giraffes,zebras, hippos and buffaloes are also dying due to the drought. “The situation cannot improve until it rains,” Farawo said.“Almost every animal is being aff ected,” Farawo said. “Of course, elephants are easily noticed,but some bird species are seriously affected because they can only breed(繁殖) in certain tree heights and those trees are being knocked down by elephants.”“In a desperate attempt to locate food and water, animals have come in the park and nearby communities, threatening human populations as well. Thirty-three people have died because of these animals this year,” the park said.“Six hundred elephants and two lion prides will be moved to less crowd ed parks. A pack of wild dogs, 50 buffaloes, 40 giraffes and 2,000 impalas will also be relocated,” Farawo said.“The animals have exceeded their ecological carrying capacity(生态承载力),” he added.“If the populations go unchecked, the animals will threaten the very ecosystem they depend on for survival.”Typically, park leaders follow a policy of not intervening(干预) to help the animals, but the hard conditions have persuaded them otherwise. Fearing more deaths before the rainy season, they have started bringing in food to help the animals, which usually rely on natural vegetation.“We used to say nature should take its c ourse,” said wildlife officer Munyaradzi Dzoro.“We are now forced to intervene. We are not sure when and how we will receive the rain. To avoid losing animals, we have to intervene to maintain population sizes.”In addition to a lack of food and water, muddy ponds have turned into death traps for the animals. Many have gotten stuck in the clay(泥土) while attempting to reach Long Pool, the park’s largest watering hole, which has shrunk to 5% of its normal size, the Associated Press reports.The drought has affected an estimated 11 million people, according to the World Food Program, which is planning large-scale food distribution.1.Why are some bird species being affected?A.They can’t find enough food and water.B.They lose many proper breeding places.C.They are often killed by big land animals.D.They become ill easily because of other animals’ death.2.What measure will be taken to improve the serious situation?A.Building fences between the park and nearby communities.B.Killing the animals which went into human communities.C.Providing enough water for the animals in the park.D.Moving some animals to less crowded places.3.What did Farawo think is the basis for the survival of animals?A.A healthy ecosystem.B.A policy of not intervening.C.Large populations of animals.D.Limited ecological carrying capacity.4.Muddy ponds have become deadly to the animals because .A.their clay is very attractiveB.much of their water is goneC.they have become much deeperD.there is much food in their waterBNo one can believe that the over 6,300-kilometer Great Wall might disappear some day. Believe it or not, the Great Wall is being destroyed by people. Less than 20 percent of the Great Wall built in the Ming Dynasty, is still perfect, but about 80 percent is in danger. The Great Wall can be called “great” mostly because of its amazing length. But we should realize that the length was made up of one brick at a time. If we do nothing to save the Great Wall, it will become a series of separate wasteland rather than a historic site.The Great Wall is actually a series of walls built and rebuilt by different dynasties over the past 2,000 years. It began in the rule of China’s first emperor, Qinshihuang of the Qin Dynasty (221 BC-206 BC), and lasted into the Ming Dynasty. The parts built before the Ming Dynasty have nearly disappeared. People are familiar with sections such as Badaling in Beijing and Jiayuguan Pass in Gansu, because they have been open to tourists for many years. But those sections far away from the public eyes have been almost forgotten.Few local people knew the 3-metre-high walls made of earth and stones beside them are part of the Great Wall. The lack of knowledge is considered as one of the main reasons behind humans.The bricks on the Great Wall are carried off by countryside people to build their houses, sheep corrals and pigsties.Some were taken away to build roads.Bricks carved with people’s names are put away as remembrances. Rubbish is spread over the battlements. The bricks can be sold for 15 yuan per tractor load. Those who destroyed and are destroying the Wall know its name, but are not clear about its cultural meaning. It will take a long time to let them know this. The local farmers not only carried off the body of the Wall but also dug out the entire base.It is necessary to protect the Great Wall. First of all, the officials should be aware of the importance of the Great Wall. Young Chinese should know more about the nation’s great civilization and learn to love it.5.Why does the writer say the Great Wall might disappear?A.It is useless from now on.B.It will be replaced by a new one.C.Some parts of it are being destroyed.D.It is too old to be used again.6.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A.The Great Wall was completed in the Ming Dynasty.B.Not all the foreign tourists like the Great Wall.C.The first part of the Great Wall was built in 221 BC.D.The Qin Great Wall was protected well.7.The underlined part “those sections far away from the public eyes” in Paragraph 2 refers to the parts of the Great Wall .A.that are too difficult to findB.that nobody can watchC.that are too far to be seenD.that are not well-known to the public8. What’s the main reason of the Great Wall’s being destroyed?A.The local people are short of culture knowledge.B.The local people need bricks and stones to build houses.C.The local people think that the Great Wall is not important.D.The local people sell the bricks for a living.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

In many societies, there is often greater acceptance of light skin than darkskin. Light skin may be seen as a mark of beauty, intelligence and success. These beliefs can lead to social pressures even within the same racial or ethnic group, if some members are darker skinned than others.The result is that skin lightening has become a commonactivity across Africa, Asia and other areas of the world. More and more people with dark skin are using skin -lightening products, even if it means they may face health risks. They believe that having whiter skin will improve their lives. Many people think they will have a better chance of getting a job or marrying into a better family. Or they want to look like what their society generally considers beautiful.As a result, some beauty care products and soaps contain chemicals that make skin lighter. This process is also called bleaching (漂白). But some of the chemicals are extremely dangerous. One of the most dangerous is a chemical named hydroquinone.Hydroquinone has been forbidden in several countries. This chemical has been linked to health damage and some kinds of cancer. It also causes low birth weight in babies when mothers use it during pregnancy.At first, bleaching products make the skin colour lighter. But after long-term use they can cause problems. They could even make some skin darker. The chemicals in the products block and break down the natural process that gives colour to skin. The skin loses its natural barrier to protect against sunlight. Then theskin can become thick and discoloured. Usually the person will use more of the product in an effort to correct the problem, but this only makes it worse.Fatimata Ly, an expert who treats skin conditions in the Capital Hospital of South Africa, says skin bleaching has become a problem throughout South Africa. She says the chemicals are now more dangerous because they are stronger. Some cases have resulted in blackened fingernails, infections andpermanent skin damage.And these are not the only risks. Skin experts say some people who change their skin colour suffer emotional damage. They feel regret andsadness. They feel that instead of risking their health ,they should have learnedto love and accept their skin colour as it was.If these feelings caused by bleaching【答案】8. temporary 9.regret 1O.negative4. harmful5.Physical6.darker7.protect【导学号:57732064】请阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
