！?0題詳析】根據(jù)本空所在的整句“Despitethepopularityofelectronictransactions,onethingisclear:(盡管電子交易很受歡迎，但有一點是明確的)”可知，此句表轉(zhuǎn)折，而冒號則是對“onethingisclear”的進一步解釋與說明，再結(jié)合空后“Andascompaniesrushtowardsfindingevermoreconvenienttransactionmethods,it’simportantnottoabandonthosewhoprefertopayinthetraditionalway.(隨著公司爭相尋找更方便的交易方式，重要的是不要拋棄那些喜歡以傳統(tǒng)方式支付的人。)”可知，重要的是不要放棄那些喜歡用傳統(tǒng)方式付款的人，說明電子支付不會成為唯一的方法，現(xiàn)金支付不會消失，E項“至少在不久的將來，它們不會成為唯一的方法?！狈项}意。故選E。第三部分語言運用(共兩節(jié)，滿分30分)第一節(jié)(共15小題；每小題1分，滿分15分)閱讀下面短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中選出最佳選項。Thebestfriendamanhasintheworldmayturnagainsthimandbecomehisenemy.Hissonordaughterthathehasrearedwithlovingcaremay21ungrateful.Thosewhoare22anddearesttous,thosewhomwetrustwithourhappinessandourgoodnamemaybecomebetrayerstotheirfaith.Themoneythatamanhas,hemaylose.It23fromhim,perhapswhenheneedsitmost.Aman’sreputationmaybesacrificedinamomentof24action.Thepeoplewhoarepronetofallontheir25todoushonorwhensuccessiswithus,maybethefirsttothrowthestoneofmalice(惡意)when26settlesitsclouduponourheads.Theoneabsolutelyunselfishfriendthatmancanhaveinthisselfishworld,theonethatnever27him,theonethatneverprovesungratefulorcrafty(狡猾的)ishisdog.Aman’sdogstandsbyhimin28andinpoverty,inhealthandinsickness.Hewillsleeponthecoldground,wherethewintrywindsblowandthesnow29fiercely,ifonlyhemaybenearhismaster’sside.Aimingtoshowintimacyandenthusiasm,hewill30thehandthathasnofoodtoofferinawe.Hewilllickoffthewoundsandsoresthatcomeinencounterswiththe31oftheworld.Heguardsthesleepofhispaupermasterasifhewereaprince.Whenallotherfriendsdesert,he32.Whenrichestakewings,andreputationfallstopieces,heisas33inhisloveasthesuninitsjourneythroughtheheavens.Iffortunedrivesthemasterforth,anoutcastintheworld,friendlessandhomeless,thefaithfuldogasksnohigher34thanthatofaccompanyinghim,to35himfromdanger,tofightagainsthisenemies.21.A.suspect
