Read the following passage and mark the
letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
Sweden can be one
of the first countries to stop using cash. In most cities, buses do not take
any cash. Instead, you pay for your tickets by card or mobile phone before you
get on. Some businesses only take cards and there are banks that do not deal
with any notes or coins.
In a cashless
society, you do not need to worry about having enough change for the bus. You
will feel much more secure as well. Statistics show that since the decrease in
the cash economy, there is not as much crime in Sweden.
However, not all
Swedes like the idea. Elderly people complain much about the problems of paying
by card. Small business are also unhappy because they have to pay a little money to the bank each time
somebody pay them using a card.
It is not just
richer countries that are becoming cashless. Many countries in the developing world
have found that mobile phones are perfect for transferring money. For example,
in Kenya, only a few people have a bank account, but lots of Kenyan have mobile
phone. Now people can pay for things in shops, pay their bills and their
children’s school fees, and receive their salary with their phones. Kenya has
led a revolution in mobile
banking.

Read the following passage and mark the
letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
It is often held that technology in
general does little to help family relationships as, in many cases, family
members are more interested in their smartphones and the TV than they are in
each other. Before
smartphones the TV was blamed the most for breakdowns in communication between
parents and children. It was argued that “the box” stop them from talking to
each other, and clashes
between family members over what programs to watch create barriers and cause
resentment.
However, TV
programs can be booth informative and entertaining. They often provide topics
for family members to discuss, bring them
closer together rather than driving them further away. What is more,
twenty-first century families do not need to watch the same program at the same
time. The fact that people can watch what they want results in more time for
families to be together rather than less.
The smartphone has
taken over from the TV as a major reason for the lack of communication between
family members. Parents often do not see why their children spend so
much time online and fail to see the importance of having an online identity
while most teens feel their online image is part of who they are. They often
criticize the amount of time their children spend online rather than attempting
to understand why they do it. In fact, adults are often not very good examples
themselves. Who has not witnessed a table at a restaurant where all the family
members are silently focused on their mobile devices?
Broadly speaking,
smartphones do have some negative
effects on family relationships. This technology
is still relatively new, so many families have not yet learned how to deal with
it. Parents and children should discuss how they use technology to help them all
to make the most of technology instead of blaming it for their problems.
