Cash is unlikely to go away soon. Coins and paper【C1】________remain the most popular ways to pay for things in most countries. But in the long term, cash appears to be in a【C2】________battle with electronic payment methods.
There are few corners of the world where electronic【C3】________are not growing faster than cash. But the movement away from cash is happening in very different ways and at【C4】________paces around the world.
Scandinavian (斯堪的纳维亚的) countries are already well along the road toward【C5】________ societies. Many banks in Sweden no longer have cash on hand, and consumers can make instant transfers directly from their bank accounts.
In Kenya, the local mobile phone company Safaricom, not the banks or the government, has pushed the envelope. Safaricom created a system, known as M-Pesa, that allows customers to make payments【C6】________from their phones.
The【C7】________of moving away from cash have been trumpeted (鼓吹) by economists like Kenneth Rogoff, who wrote The Curse of Cash , about how paper money enables【C8】________and tax evasion.
But the critics of cash have been met by their own critics, who argue that electronic payments can disenfranchise (剥夺某人的权利) poor people who【C9】________easy access to bank accounts and the internet and can make it much easier for governments and corporations to monitor a person’s every step.
In the end, though, the future of money is less likely to be determined by these arguments than to be【C10】________by the success of technologists making it easier for you to pay for your lunch or morning coffee without pulling out your wallet.
A) adequately I) enlightening
B) benefits J) lack
C) cashless K) losing
D) crime L) shaped
E) currency M) transactions
F) democratic N) varying
G) directly O) witnessed
H) disadvantages

选项
答案
N
解析
通过分析句子结构可知,and连接了两个并列的介词短语,并列成分的结构应该相同或类似,第一个介词短语的结构是“介词+副词+形容词+复数名词”,而第二个介词短语中空格前是介词at,后面是名词paces,因此空格处应填入形容词或起修饰作用的动词分词形式。上一句指出,世界上少有这样的地方,其电子交易的发展速度不及现金,这说明了世界各地电子交易发展的相同点。而本句以转折连词But开头,说明句意发生了转折,由in very different ways可知,本句从方式和速度两方面说明了各地电子交易发展的不同点,因此空格处需要填入与“不同”含义相近的词,所以N)varying“不同的”为答案。at varying paces意为“不同的速度”。
