They can tell us a lot about how the climate is changing. Some trees can live for a very long time, like hundreds or even thousands of years.

About 1,400 years ago, during the Tang Dynasty, people began using paper as a promise to pay for objects. Later, the Northern Song Dynasty made the first official paper money. In recent 10 years, paper money has become less common, and China is now leading the cashless trend(趋势). Living in China, I never take cash or a wallet. But when I travel abroad, I have to use cash again. That is a problem because of spending limits and big bills. This change is even harder for young people born between 1981 and 1999. They almost never use cash in their adult lives. However, some people still take cash in China because they feel safer, worrying about app problems or no phone signal (信号). For festivals and gifts, people still use cash in red packets, but young people now like digital red packets better. They can spend the money directly from their app wallets. Unlike Sweden and Norway, which use card-based cashless systems, China’s cashless life is built around mobile phones. There is even facial recognition (人脸识别) payment that does not need a phone at all. Some places in the world do not want to accept this convenience because of trust problems. But people in China trust their government and happily welcome this easy cashless trend. 19. When did Chinese people begin to make paper money? A. During the Tang Dynasty. B. During the Northern Song Dynasty. C. In recent ten years. D. Between1981 and 1999. 20. Why do some people still carry cash in China? A. Because they don’t know how to use phones. B. Because they like using large bills every day. C. Because they don’t like like digital red packets. D. Because they worry about app problems or no phone signal. 21. What does the underlined word “convenience” mean in the last paragraph? A. Something difficult and boring. B. something modern and creative. C. Something easy and comfortable. D. something expensive and useless. 22. What is the passage mainly about? A. The popular use of digital red packets. B.The cashless situation of foreign countries. C. The long history of Chinese paper money. D. The development of China’s cashless society.

So I went to the teacher and told her the truth. She corrected my grade but praised me for my honesty. This experience greatly influenced me. I learned that being honest makes me feel peaceful inside. Although I lost two points, I won something more valuable — self-respect. Now I always try to be an honest person in my daily life. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
