本文向我們介紹了亞馬遜新開發(fā)的支付系統(tǒng),可以通過掃描手進行支付。

1

句意:有沒有可能通過掃描我們身體的其他部位來支付呢?

possible可能的;important重要的;strange奇怪的。分析上下文可知,此處表示目前人們可以通過面部識別技術進行支付,那么掃描其他部位可不可能進行支付呢?強調“可能的”,故選A

2

句意:亞馬遜有一項掃描人手的新技術。

eyes眼睛;faces面部;hands手。根據(jù)后文“The technology can tell if the person is the right one by scanning his or her hand.”可知,是通過掃描手部進行識別的。故選C。

【題目】 John Smith is an exchange student from New York. Here is a letter to his friend in his hometown.

Dear David,

How time flies! It's been 3 months since I came to China. I'm having a great time on my student exchange program here. So far, I've completely got used to the life here and have known a lot about traditional Chinese culture. I'd like to share some with you.

In China, there are many different kinds of traditional art forms, such as paper cutting, Chinese clay art and so on. Among them, the kite interests me most. The first ancient Chinese kite appeared more than 2,000 years ago. Then flying kites was spread into Japan, Korea and Malaysia during the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty. Kites are regarded as the earliest craft (飛行器). They played an important role in the process of inventing the plane.

Tea culture is important in China. Tea was discovered as a kind of drink by accident about 5,000 years ago. It is believed that tea was brought to Korea and Japan during the 6th and 7th centuries. It didn't appear in England until around 1660. The tea trade from China to Western countries took place in the 19th century. Now tea has become one of the most popular drinks around the world.

Lastly, I'd like to tell you something about one of the traditional Chinese festivals — the Mid-Autumn Festival. It is on the fifteenth day of the eighth month in the Chinese lunar calendar (陰歷). Chinese people have been celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival and enjoying mooncakes for centuries.

If you'd like to know more about traditional Chinese culture, I will talk about it in the next letter.

Best wishes!

yours,

John根據(jù)語言材料內(nèi)容選擇最佳答案。
