实战演练
假定你是李华，某英文报社正在就“刷脸支付的利弊”这一话题征文。请你用英语写一篇短文投稿，内容包括：1.分析利弊；2.展望前景。
注意：1.写作词数应为80左右；2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。
参考词汇：刷脸支付 face-scanning payment
[参考范文]
My View on Face-Scanning Payment
Nowadays，face-scanning payment is increasingly popular among customers，but it has both advantages and disadvantages.
As for its advantages，first，the payment can be completed quickly.Second，customers don’t have to carry a mobile phone or a bank card，which makes payment more convenient.When it comes to its disadvantages，the most worrying thing is that face recognition hasn’t reached 100% accuracy，
which might lead to payment risks.Additionally，customers’ personal information may be revealed illegally.
I believe that，with the improvement of face recognition，face-scanning payment will definitely become more and more reliable.
Ⅱ 读后续写
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Having struggled with financial difficulties for six months and failing to find a way out，I had to close my technology writing business.Fortunately，I found a new job as a salesperson and soon got a client.At the time，I wondered if it was too good to be true.
By the second month，something didn’t seem right，and I developed a bad feeling about the client and the work.When the third month’s check didn’t arrive on time，I sent the client an e-mail to find out what was going on.But there was no reply.Then I sent another e-mail，and another.The check never arrived，and I never heard from the client again.With no hope in sight，I hit rock bottom.Panic replaced cautious optimism along with my last self-confidence.
I hid myself from friends and locked myself in my room.One night，the phone rang.The call was from Eric，a friend of mine from high school.When he was in high school，he told me many times about his parents’ divorce and his loss of confidence in the College Entrance Examination.During the difficult time，I gave him much comfort and encouragement.Later，he went to college and was always grateful for what I had done.
After the greetings，I told my friend about my problems and challenges，hoping he would say something comforting.What I didn’t expect was a string of sharp words.“What is wrong with you？ You can do anything you want to do，” he said.“You are a writer，so start writing.Write for magazines.” “Write for magazines？ Are you out of your mind？ I don’t know the first thing about writing for magazines，let alone write things that anyone would want to read.And I have to know where I can send an application form—to what magazine and to what editor，” I shouted at him.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；

Surprisingly，I felt a little better after the shouting.

[参考范文]
Surprisingly，I felt a little better after the shouting.After a short silence，Eric replied in a firm voice.“I always remember what you said when I was in trouble.You said，‘No one can get you out of trouble but yourself.’”Hearing that，I was speechless and struck by the fact that it was easier to convince others than to convince myself.Inspired by Eric’s words，I started searching for magazines the next day and finally found one that accepted online contributions with various topics.Then I began to prepare my application form.
On finishing the application form I sent it to the editor.Luckily，two days later I received a positive response and an invitation to write.At first，I only wrote articles I was expert at.Gradually，I began trying new types.One day，much to my amazement，one of my articles appeared on the first page of the magazine！ Since then，I have been on my way to becoming an excellent writer.That definitely should be credited to Eric.It was he who enlightened me and helped me regain confidence to face challenges in my life.
