The idea of paper money first appeared in China during the Tang Dynasty(朝代). At that
time, feiqian, the earliest form of paper note(汇票),was used as a promise to pay instead of real
paper money. During the Northern Song Dynasty, official (官方的) jiaozi was come out and soon
became widely used. It is considered the world's first official paper money. And now, China, once
more, is playing a leading(领先的) role and may become one of the first truly cashless societies.
Cash is still legal tender(法定货币) anywhere and everywhere in China; but only a few people use it
today. If we pay with a 100-yuan note, it's possible that some small stores or taxi drivers would be unable to
break it to give change.
I live in China, and I travel outside the country from time to time. In China, I never carry my wallet with
me, and I don’ t even carry cash. However, when I go to other countries, it is a different story. Before travelling,
I need to make sure my credit card(信用卡) is in my wallet, which is something I almost never do in China.
Since the introduction of the smartphone, many of us have stopped carrying wallets because almost
everything can be done on the phone. But now, even more convenient ways, like facial recognition(人脸识别),
are here. We can pay in many places without even taking out our phones. However, countries that are
considered leaders in" cashless societies", such as Sweden(瑞典) and Norway(挪威), mostly use credit cards
which allow people to" touch and go". The convenience is hard to beat, but cards are still carried in wallets.
Once again, China goes a step further and finds even more convenient payment methods.
23. Why does the writer mention Tang and Song dynasties
A. To compare different payment systems.
B. To explain why paper money was created.
C. To show China's historical importance in paper money use.
24. What trouble might people have when using cash in China now
A. Others don't have change for them.
B. Others are afraid that the cash is not real.
C. Others worry that some people steal their cash.
25. Which of the following sentences is TURE
A. Feiqian is the world's earliest official paper money.
B. China now has the most convenient payment system in the world.
C. People in Sweden and Norway completely stop using credit cards.
26. What is the best title of the passage
A. The Payment in Ancient China
B. Payment Systems around the World
C. The Development of Payment in China

very special theater, Xin Deng Theater(心灯影院). It's blind-friendly.
More than 5,000 volunteers help at Xin Deng Theater on weekends. Most of them are university
students. Every Saturday, volunteers come to the bus stop to pick up the blind and take them to Xin Deng Theater.
To help the blind enjoy the movie, volunteers describe what is happening on the screen(银幕). With the help of
the volunteers, the blind can learn about the characters’ facial expressions, the background and even the clothing.
They lose themselves in the movie, laughing during funny parts and crying during sad parts.
However, it's not easy to describe a movie clearly. The volunteers must be familiar with every scene in the
movie. “I watch a movie at least-three times and write down every small part, “one of the volunteers said. The
volunteers have to practice many times before they do the job. However, they all enjoy the experience. Yifan has
volunteered here since last June. “I’m so glad that my volunteer work can bring joy to the blind. I feel as if I'm
shining a light on their lives, and the experience enriches my life in return,” he said.
