The price of a bitcoin topped $900 last week, an enormous surge in value that arrived amidst Congressional hearings where top U.S. financial regulators took a surprisingly optimistic view of digital currency. Just 10 months ago, a bitcoin only sold for $13.
The【C1】________increase was big news across the【C2】________ , from Washington to Tokyo to China, and it left many asking themselves: "What on earth is a bitcoin?" It’s a good question.
Bitcoin is a digital currency, meaning it’s money controlled and stored entirely by computers【C3】________ across the internet, and this money is finding its way to more and more people and businesses around the world.【C4】________it’s much more than that, and many people—【C5】________the sharpest of internet【C6】________as well as seasoned economists—are still【C7】________to come to terms【C8】________its many identities.
Bitcoin isn’t just a currency, like dollars or euros or yen. It’s a way of making【C9】________. like PayPal or the Visa credit card network. It lets you hold money, but it also lets you spend it and【C10】________it and move it from place to place, almost as cheaply and easily as you’d send an email.
As the press so often points out, bitcoin lets you do all this without【C11】________your identity. But at the same time, it’s a system that operates【C12】________in the public view. All bitcoin【C13】________are recorded online for anyone to see, lending a certain transparency to the system, a transparency that can drive a new【C14】________in the economy.
Bitcoin is much more than a money service. It’s a re-imagining of【C15】________finance, something that【C16】________ barriers between countries and frees currency from the control of federal governments. Bitcoin is controlled by open source software that operates according to the【C17】________of mathematics—and by the people who collectively supervise this software. The software【C18】________ on thousands of machines around the world, but it can be changed It’s just that a majority of those supervising the software must【C19】________to the change.【C20】________, bitcoin is kind of like the internet, but for money.
【C10】
选项
A、switch
B、change
C、trade
D、transfer
答案
C
解析
本句描述比特币作为货币的功能,可以hold、spend和move。因此填入的词应与这三者并列体现其作为货币的特点,故选C项trade“交易”。A项switch“转换”,上下文并没有提及把比特币转换成其他货币,故没有推断依据。文章没有提到比特币能改变成其他货币,B项change无依据。D项transfer“转移”虽然也符合语义,但与move it from place to place语义重复。
