问题     One hundred and thirteen million Americans have at least one bank-issued credit card. They give their owners automatic credit in stores, restaurants, and hotels, at home, across the country, and even abroad, and they make many banking services available as well. More and more of these credit cards can be read automatically, making it possible to withdraw or deposit money in scattered locations, whether or not the local branch bank is open. For many of us, the "cashless society" is not on the horizon—it’s already here.
    While computers offer these conveniences to consumers, they have many advantages for sellers too. Electronic cash registers can do much more than simply ring up sales. They can keep a wide range of records, including who sold what, when, and to whom. This information allows businessmen to keep track of their list of goods by showing which items are being sold and how fast they are moving. Decisions to reorder or return goods to suppliers can then be made. At the same time these computers record which hours are busiest and which employees are the most efficient, allowing personnel and staffing assignments to be made accordingly. And they also identify preferred customers for promotional campaigns. Computers are relied on by manufacturers for similar reasons. Computer analyzed marketing reports can help to decide which products to emphasize now, which to develop for the future, and which to drop. Computers keep track of goods in stock, of raw materials on hand, and even of the production process itself.
    Numerous other commercial enterprises, from theaters to magazine publishers, from gas and electric utilities to milk processors, bring better and more efficient services to consumers through the use of computers.
According to the text, electronic cash registers can ______.

选项 A、record information of sales
B、keep track of their list of goods
C、have many advantages for sellers
D、offer some conveniences to consumers

答案A

解析 这个题目根据题干定位在第二段的第二句。第三句中的主语they指代第二句中的Electronic cash registers,这一句的意思是:它们可以提供丰富多样的记录,包括谁卖了什么,何时卖的,卖给谁了。因此选项A是正确的。选项B对应这一段的第四句,但是B对应的信息是商人利用这些信息能够做的事情,因此选项B答非所问。选项C和D对应的都是这个自然段的第一句,这一句话讲的是电脑能够做的事情,因此这两个选项答非所问。
