【答案详解】

1.［标准答案］［A］

［考点分析］本题考察逻辑关系

［选项分析］因为考察逻辑关系，因此需要我们先对填

空前后的原文信息做定位分析：填空之后的信息为"atrue

cashlesssocietyisprobablynotaroundthecorner(一个

无现金社会不太可能马上出现)，而文章之前的信息都是在

资料仅供参考

说我们可能马上就进入一个无现金社会，两者之间出现了

明显的转折关系，因此只有however符合题意。B.moreover

表递进C.therefore表结果D.Otherwise表对比

2.［标准答案］［D］

［考点分析］上下文语义

［选项分析］根据该句的but可知，其前后句子是转折

关系。后一句是说这种形式的社会并没有真正有成果出来,

因此前一句应该为这样的预测已经进行了二十年。其它选

项不符合题意。

3.［标准答案］［B］

［考点分析］上下文语义及名词辨析

［选项分析］该句意思为，1975年的《商业周刊》预测

电子支付手段“将很快彻底改变货币本身的一九四个选

项中，A.为力量C“历史”D"角色3语义不正确，且如果

选择role的话，应该是复数roles,因为是金钱的作用不止

一个，故答案选B。

4.［标准答案］［D］

［考点分析］上下文语义及动词词义辨析

［选项分析］根据only知道，空格处所填单词词义应与

前一句的"revolutionize”（变革）发生同义替换，因此ABCD

四个选项中只有D.reverse（颠覆）符合。A.reward奖赏

B.resist抵抗C.resume重新开始，继续。

资料仅供参考

5.［标准答案］［C］

［考点分析］上下文语义及形容词词义辨析

［选项分析］根据上文得知，早在1975年就预测了无现

金社会可能即将到来，而作者谈到实际上“真正的无现金社

会很可能不会马上到来”，因此这种无现金社会只可能缓慢

到来，故答案选择CoA.silent沉寂的，B.sudden突然的,

D.steady平稳的。

6.［标准答案］［B］

［考点分析］上下文语义及介词词义辨析

［选项分析］填空所在段开头although表明对上一段的

让步关系，上一段的观点为人们进入无现金时代的速度变

缓慢的原因。因此这一段应该是说明尽管电子支付可能比

纸币支付方式更方便更高效，然而以下几个方面解释了纸

币系统“不会”消失的原因，只有Bworkagainst违背、妨

碍，符合题意。A.workfor为…而工作C.workwith与…

共事，对…起作用D.workon从事…工作，对…起作用，

都不合适。

7.［标准答案］［B］

［考点分析］上下文语义及形容词词义辨析

［选项分析］本填空所在句为对纸币支付“不会”消失原

因的解释，即推广电子支付方式不利之处。因此该题选项

先排除productive富有成效的。而imaginative,意思是“虚

资料仅供参考

构的、富于想象力的"；sensitive,意思是“敏感的、易受伤

害的”均不符合语义，只能选择消极含义的选项expensiveo

8.［标准答案］［D］

［考点分析］上下文语义及形容词词义辨析

［选项分析］空格所在句译为…使得电子货币成为__支

付方式，将四个选项带入，C,D是比较恰当的，再结合本

文章的主旨，应该选择“占主导地位的，支配地位”这层意

思的D选项。A.similar相似的B.original原始的，独创的,

都不合适。

9.［标准答案］［B］

［考点分析］上下文语义及名词词义辨析

［选项分析］纸质支票支付拥有能够__收据的优势，

而客户一般都不愿。收据当然是由银行开具，因此只

能选择provide。A.collect收集收据，C.copy复印收据，

D.print打印收据都和实际生活不符合。

10.［标准答案］［A］

［考点分析］上下文语义及固定搭配

［选项分析］该动词短语的宾语是前文的something,指

代上文的advantage,纸质支票支付能够提供收据这一优

势，肯定是消费者不愿放弃的。和优势相搭配的动词短语

不能是B.takeover接管，也不能是C.bringback拿回来,

D.passdown传递、遗传也不符合。A.giveup放弃一种优

资料仅供参考

势，符合语境，为正确答案。

1L［标准答案］A

［考点分析］上下文逻辑关系

［选项分析］本句是来解释“float”的。空格前面意为

“需要花几天”后半句意为纸支票兑现。上文提到讲纸支票

的兑现不像是电子支票，是不会马上完成的，因此在纸支

票在兑现前要是需要时间的。Abefore唯。。。之前”。Bafter

“在…之后”。Csince“自从”。Dwhen“当。。。的时候”。

结合上下文意思，很明显只有A符合语境。

12.［标准答案］D

［考点分析］上下文语义及动词词义辨析

［选项分析］从“and”一词能够看出此题与此11题紧密

相连，若能正确理解上一题，此处就很容易选出。意思是

在纸支票兑现及钱从帐户取出之前，Akept“保持”。B

borrowed“借Creleased“释放，发布Dwithdraw“取

钱九因此结合上下文能够得出只有D项符合语境。

13.［标准答案］C

［考点分析］上下文逻辑关系

［选项分析］前句子含义是电子支票是及时的，后半句含

义是用户不能享有“浮动”带来有好处。能够看出整句话是

一个因为关系。A.Unless“除非”。B.Until“直到。。。才”。

CBecause“因为”。D.Though“然而”。根据上下文含义，

资料仅供参考

应选C.

14.［标准答案］C

［考点分析］上下文语义及动词词义辨析

［选项分析］此处是一个短句，明显缺少一个谓语动词,

经过最后一个单词concerns能够看出本句的含义是电子支

付方式引发安全及隐私的问题。四个选项中只有raise和

concerns搭配时符合文意。因此选Co

15.［标准答案］C

［考点分析］后置定语

［选项分析］存储信息是一般有固定的动词storeo因此

选C。

16.［标准答案］C

［考点分析］上下文语义及动词词义辨析

［选项分析］上文提出电子支票的坏处，本句话意思是

“因为这种事情经常发生”，因此形容意思应为普遍的，但

因为本句用的双重否定表肯定，因此选填词汇意思应为不

普遍的。结合选项Aunsafe"不安全"。Bunnatural“不自

然的“。Cuncommon“不是普遍的”D

unclear“不清楚的”。因此只有C项符合本句话意思。

17.［标准答案］A

［考点分析］上下文语义及动词义辨析

［选项分析］本句话是讲电子支票的存在的风险，含义

资料仅供参考

是那些不道德的人就可能经过转移帐户从而偷取别人的存

款。动词应为贬义，能够排除选项。故选［A］。

18.［标准答案］B

［考点分析］上下文语义及名词义辨析

［选项分析］上文提出电子支票的风险，本句话提出解
