Visa last year offered up to 50 small businesses a $10,000 reward to go cashless. 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 cash-abandonment are that it would lead to more efficient service 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.

(2018 南通、泰州一模)There are many heartbreaking moments in this beautifully written book,

Letter to Louis, by Alison White, but the first comes before it even begins. In the devotion to her son

Louis, author Alison White says how she wanted to write it so that people would understand disability

and caring, but also ,“to be totally honest, I wanted to write something that would make people

consider being Louis' s friend ”B.eneath that simple plea (恳求) lies the great fear of so many

parents who nurse a severely disabled child through to adulthood:“What will happen when I'm

gone?”Instead of giving a vivid account of the fear and anxieties that accompany long-term caring,

(2019·南京、盐城一模)As the concept of emotional intelligence (EI) has gone global, we've watched professionals fail as they try to improve their emotional intelligence because they either don't know where to focus their efforts or they haven't understood how to improve these skills on a practical level.In our work consulting with companies and coaching leaders, we have found that if you're looking to develop particular EI strengths, it helps to consider areas for improvement others have identified along with the goals you want to achieve — and then to actively build habits in those areas rather than simply relying on understanding them conceptually.

(2018·南京、盐城⼀模)A so-called “smart drug” intended to improve cognitive (认知的) performance also seems to protect the brain from altitude sickness.

Ever more people are visiting high-altitude sites for work, sport, religious pilgrimages and military tasks. But even the fittest among us suffer in thin air: the lower oxygen content at altitude can lead to cognitive effects, including memory loss and attention difficulties.

There's little you can do to prevent these symptoms other than acclimatize — but this takes time and doesn't always work. A drug called oxiracetam might be the answer.

Perfect

The eyeliner makes the dark circles less visible. The lip gloss hides the trembling. The ponytail hides missing patches of hair. The Abercrombie sweater covers bruises (伤痕). I might look a bit thinner, but everyone will ask about my new diet. My hair might not shine the way it used to, but the pink ribbon will distract curious eyes. One hour of preparation and I look like myself. One hour of preparation and no one will know. One hour out of 24. Sometimes I wonder if it's worth —wasting a twenty-fourth of my day on a lie. But then I see my wispy hair and baggy eyes, and I have to do it.

Checking my make-up one last time, I push my sleeves up, though not past my elbows. I slip on a cute pair of flat shoes — heels are too dangerous with shaky legs — and grab my Hollister bag. Padding downstairs, I breathe in the scent of waffles and syrup.

The United Nations Climate Change Conference takes place next week in Poland. About 20,000 people from 190 countries are expected to take part in the conference. There, world leaders will debate how to limit climate change — the weather events linked to slowly rising temperatures on Earth. They will discuss ways to reduce carbon emissions (排放物) and other pollution which, scientists say, can give rise to long­term changes to our planet.

For environmentalists, one area of concern is South America's Amazon rainforest. Brazil holds about 60 percent of the Amazon rainforest. It is also the most biodiverse country on Earth, with more than 56,000 species of plants, 1,700 species of birds, 695 amphibians, 578 mammals, and 651 reptiles. Studies have shown that the Amazon takes in as much as 2 billion tons of carbon dioxide a year and releases about 20 percent of Earth's oxygen.

(2015·扬州市高三期末检测)To discipline means to teach. To be well disciplined is to have learned to live in accordance with the sensible rules and regulations that society has set up for the behavior of its members.

Unless the child learns from each disciplinary situation how better to govern his conduct, effective discipline has not been developed. Parents must accept for themselves the idea that successful discipline results in learning. When they approach situations in which a child must adapt themselves to demands made upon them as learning situations, many problems usually thought of in connection with discipline disappear.

(2018·镇江高三一模)Most of us are already aware of the direct effect we have on our friends and family. But we rarely consider that everything we think, feel, do, or say can spread far beyond the people we know. Conversely (相反地), our friends and family serve as conduits (渠道) for us to be influenced by hundreds or even thousands of other people. In a kind of social chain reaction, we can be deeply affected by events we do not witness that happen to people we do not know. As part of a social network, we go beyond ourselves, for good or ill, and become a part of something much larger.

(2018·无锡高三一模)Fantasy literature is fantasy in written form. Historically speaking, the majority of fantasy works have been literature. Since the 1950s, however, a growing part of the fantasy genre (流派) has taken the form of video games, music, painting, and the like. It is difficult to define the precise “beginning” of fantasy literature, as stories involving magic and terrible monsters have existed since time immemorial. On the whole, the genre, as a distinct type, began to become visible in the Victorian times, in the works of writers such as William Morris, Lord Dunsany and George Macdonald.

Some commentators declared that the South African-born, English professor of philology, J.R.R. Tolkien, was influential to the mass-popularization of the fantasy genre, with his hugely successful publications —The Hobbit, and The Lord of the Rings. Tolkien himself, though, was largely informed by an ancient body of Anglo-Saxon myths —particularly Beo w ulf— but it was after his work that the genre began to receive the name,“fantasy”. J.R.R. Tolkien's close friend C.S. Lewis, author of the The Chronicles of Narnia, also an English professor interested in similar themes, was also connected with popularizing the commercial success of the fantasy genre.

London to Brighton Bike Ride

The start

The bike ride starts at Clapham mon tube station.

Ride carefully

We put together as many facilities as possible to help ensure you have a trouble-free day. But we also rely on you to ride safely and with due consideration for other cyclists and road users. Although many roads are closed to oning traffic, this is not always the case and you should be aware of the possibility that there could be vehicles ing in the opposite direction.

Please do not attempt reckless overtaking whilst riding — remember it is NOT a race.

(1)________

If you have an accident, ask a marshal for help; they are in contact with the support/emergency services. To call for help from our motorcycle marshals, give a“thumbs down”signal. The marshal will do all he/she can to help, providing he/she is not already going to a more serious accident. If a motorcycle marshal slows down to help you, but you have just stopped for a rest and don't need help, please give a “thumbs up”signal and he/she will carry on. Remember —thumbs down means “I need help”.

(2019·南京、盐城模拟)That competition keeps prices down is well known。But it is hard to measure by just how much,because prices vary for all sorts of reasons, from differences in labour costs and rents to taxes。Rising to the challenge is a new paper in The Economic Journal by Giacomo Calzolari,Andrea Ichino, Francesco Manaresi and Viki Nellas,economists at the European University Institute,Bologna University and the Italian central bank。They looked at pharmacies (药房) and specifically at customers who may be particularly easy to rip off: new parents。

Using data for 2007 to 2010 covering about a fifth of pharmacies in Italy,the researchers measured the way in which prices of hygiene products for babies changed as the number of babies varied. They took advantage of a peculiar law from the 1960s, according to which regions with at most 7,500 people are allowed just one pharmacy (supposedly to keep the quality of services high). They compared prices in places with

(2019·泰州一模)In 2016, designer Liz Ciokajlo received a task from the Museum of Modern Art (Moma) in New York: revisit the Moon Boot, a fluffy­looking snowshoe inspired by the footwear used by the Apollo astronauts.

Launched in 1972 at the height of the lunar missions, the Moon Boot is an icon of the 20th Century's “plastic age” and the museum administrators wanted a new take on it.

Ciokajlo set out to reimagine it.She knew only a biomaterial would work in a “post­plastic age”, but the designer also wanted a new destination to inspire it.Our generation's space travel obsession is not the Moon, she thought, but the red planet — Mars.And Mars allows you to really think outside of the box.

(2020·无锡一模)“The world feels anxious and divided, and Facebook has a lot of work to do — whether it's protecting our community from abuse and hate, defending against interference by nation states, or making sure that time spent on Facebook is well spent,”Zuckerberg wrote on Facebook in January.

If the tech firm succeeded, Facebook would end 2020 on a much better path.But the cracks in Zuckerberg's social media empire only grew as scandals (丑闻) about data misuse, security and even Facebook's leadership piled up.

The social network has faced criticism many times since launching 14 years ago, but the public uproar reached new heights in 2020.Facebook's missteps, even as it tried to fix its problems, were yet another reminder of what happens when a company grows rapidly with little oversight (监管).They also set the stage for another showdown between the tech powerhouse and lawmakers who have their own ideas on how to manage a platform used by 2.3 billion people every month.

“I think there's just a general growing consensus from both parties in Congress that selfpolicing is not going to work,” Democratic senator Mark Warner of Virginia said in an interview.Facebook pointed to a series of notes Zuckerberg published this year outlining what the tech firm has done to combat (战斗,争论) election meddling (好干预的), as well as hate speech, misinformation and other offensive content.The social network pulled down more than 1.5 billion fake accounts, launched a database of political ads and announced the creation of a Supreme Courtlike independent body to oversee

content appeals.

But in many ways, Zuckerberg fell short of his New Year's resolution (决议).UN investigators said Facebook played a role in spreading hate speech that fueled ethnic cleansing (清洗) in Myanmar.Media outlets found loopholes (漏洞) and errors in Facebook's political ads ers questioned whether they should delete Facebook after learning that Cambridge Analytica, a UK political consulting firm with ties to Donald Trump's 2020 presidential campaign, gathered data on as many as 87 million Facebook users without their permission.

In short, Facebook's problems ballooned out of the company's control.

“They created a platform where sharing was mindlessly easy and interacting with each other required almost no forethought at all,” said Woodrow Hertzog, a law and computer science professor at Northeastern University.“As a result, there was massive sharing, including leaking of personal information that put lots of people at risk.”

A.It is a platform where people can easily share well­selected information.

B.It is a social network that has faced criticism because of data misuses from Zuckerberg.

C.It is a social network which grows rapidly without enough management from the government.

D.It is a popular app that 2.3 billion people use for information and communication every day.
