Ⅰ.阅读理解

David loved his grandson Philip dearly.The boy reminded him of himself at an early age.They had a lot of fun together,exploring the backyard and hiking in the nearby park.However,one weekend,Philip felt ill and had to stay in bed.David made sure to keep his grandson entertained by finding a book they could enjoy together.
Before handing it to Philip,he decided to leaf through it and look back at the story.However,while looking through it,he didn't expect to see another piece of his youth,this time in the form of a photograph of him and his old friends.There were four in the picture — David,Steve,Dorothy,and Teresa.They were neighbors and often went to the beach together.In the photo,the four of them were playing on the sand.
Suddenly,David wondered about the people in the photograph,curious to know where life had taken them.
Philip noticed that and asked “What happened,Grandpa?” David smiled,excitedly taking the book and the photo to Philip.“Look,Philip.This is an old photo of my friends and me!” he said.“I wish I could meet them again.” Philip suggested looking for them on Facebook.Through Philip's tablet,they searched for David's friends.To Philip's surprise,they weren't on the social media platform.
David decided to go to his hometown to find Steve,Dorothy,and Teresa.The town had changed a lot and he found that Dorothy's and Steve's houses were no longer there.Still hopeful,David decided to visit the last address,which was Teresa's.A young girl opened the door.“I'm sorry,young lady.I was just looking for Teresa Green,but I might have gotten the address wrong,” he said.
Suddenly,the girl shouted,“Grandma,you have a visitor!”

Nowadays,more stores and restaurants are not accepting cash as payment.Instead,customers must pay with a credit card,or by smartphone app.
Many business owners say that being cashless has helped them streamline the way their business runs.Staff members don't have to worry about having enough money in the cash register to make change or about taking bills and coins to the bank.
However,according to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation,more than 8 million households in the United States don't have bank accounts.Also,many people,including kids,don't meet the requirements for a credit card.
“A cashless economy is not an inclusive economy.There are consumers who can't get a credit card,because of low income.When stores refuse to accept cash,they exclude lowincome or homeless people,” says Tazra Mitchell,a policy director at the DC Fiscal Policy Institute.
Plus,people who do have credit cards might prefer to pay in cash.“Cash is used by almost 8 in 10 people in the US every month.That's more than any other payment type,” says Nick Bourke,a director at the Pew Charitable Trusts' consumer finance project.
Lawmakers in several places have taken steps to ban cashless stores.A handful of major cities — including New York City and Philadelphia,Pennsylvania—have already passed laws to address the problem.In San Francisco,California,a law banning cashless stores was passed.It says most stores in the city must allow customers to pay with cash.Derek Remski helped write the San Francisco law.Remski says,“It's about understanding that not everyone has equal access to things.”

A.Record. B.Understand.

解析 D 词义猜测题。根据画线词后文“Staff members...bank.”可知,工作人员不用担心收银机里是否有足够的钱来找零,也不用担心把钞票和硬币拿到银行,说明无现金化帮助他们简化了经营方式。故画线词意思是“简化”。Record记录;Understand理解;Redevelop再发展;Simplify简化。故选D。
6.What does Tazra Mitchell think of a cashless economy?
A.It is unfair to some people.
B.It is enjoyed by bank workers.
C.It is advantageous to customers.
D.It is the result of the marketplace.
解析 A 细节理解题。根据第四段Tazra Mitchell说的话可知,无现金经济不是包容性经济。 有些消费者因为收入低而拿不到信用卡。当商店拒绝接受现金时,他们将低收入或无家可归的人排除在外。因此,Tazra Mitchell认为无现金经济对某些人是不公平的。故选A。
7.What can we learn from paragraph 5?
A.Cash payment is still very popular with consumers.
B.Cashless stores will be driven out of the market.
C.Stores should allow more than one payment type.
D.Paying with credit cards has its own disadvantages.
解析 A 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Cash is used...That's more than any other payment type(在美国,每10个人中就有8个人每月使用现金。那比任何其他支付方式都要多)”可知,现金支付仍然很受消费者的欢迎。故选A。
8.What was some cities' attitude towards going cashless?
A.They encouraged it.
B.They fought against it.
C.They cared little about it.
D.They were hopeful about it.
解析 B 观点态度题。根据最后一段可知纽约和宾夕法尼亚州的费城,以及加利福尼亚州的旧金山等一些城市对无现金化持反对态度。故选B。

How Star Wars Changed Moviemaking Forever
“May the force be with you!” If you are a Star Wars fan,then you have probably heard this phrase many times. 1 So many characters,devices,and phrases from the movie have become wellknown.But you might be surprised to find out how much this movie has changed how movies are made.
“A long time ago in a galaxy far,far away...” is how Star Wars begins. 2 In fact,it was quite oldfashioned.The story was typical science fiction with lots of drama,traditional characters and good battling evil,in space and in handtohand fight.
3 People still talk about the light swords (剑) that could cut,burn and melt through most substances.Spaceships sped through space and landed on huge,realisticlooking space stations. 4 When Star Wars first came out in 1977,most movie theaters were standalone buildings,with just one movie screen.Using the money Star Wars had made for them,movietheater owners built more theaters,leading to the multiplexes (多影厅影院) that are common today.
Theaters needed more movies to show on all the additional movie screens and in all the new multiplexes.So new movie companies sprang up,including small ones creating experimental movies.This creative freedom allowed fresh approaches to emerge. 5 But,thanks to Star Wars,people got to see new types of movies.
A.Its plot was not groundbreaking.
B.Moviegoers had never seen anything like it.
C.Some of the methods became popular and others failed.
D.Thus,audience began to enjoy science fiction movies there.
E.If you are not a fan,you are still likely familiar with these words.
F.If you are a movie maker,you may be inspired by this classic film.
G.It was the special effects that made Star Wars stand out from other movies.
