4.One hundred and thirteen million Americans have at least one bank-issued credit card.They give their owners automatic credit in stores,restaurants,and hotels,at home,across the country,and they make many banking services available as well.More and more of these credit cards can be read automatically,making it possible to withdraw or deposit money in scattered locations,whether or not the local branch bank is open.For many of us the"cashless society"is not on the horizon---it's already here.
While computer offer these conveniences to consumers,they have many advantages for sellers too.Electronic cash registers can do much more than simply ring up sales.They can keep a wide range of records,including who sold what,when and to whom.This information allows businessmen to keep track of their list of goods by showing which items are being sold and how far they are moving.Decisions to reorder or return goods to suppliers can then be made.At the same time these computers record which hours are busiest and which employees are the most efficient,allowing personnel and staffing assignments to be made accordingly.And they also identify preferred customer for promotional campaigns.Computers are relied on by manufacturers for similar reasons.Computer analyzed marketing reports can help to decide which products to emphasize now,which to develop for the future and which to drop.Computers keep track of goods in stock,of raw materials on hand,and even of the production process itself.
Numerous other commercial enterprises,from theaters to magazine publishers,from gas and electric utilities to milk processors,bring better and more efficient services to consumers through the use of computers.

28.From the last sentence of the first paragraph we learn thatC.
A.in the future all the Americans will use credit cads
B.credit cards are mainly used in the United States today
C.nowadays many Americans do not pay in cash
D.it is now more convenient to use credit cards than before
29.If computers record which hours are busiest and which employees are the most efficient,what will businessmen do?B
A.They will fire some employees and raise the work efficiency.
B.They will arrange for different employees to do different jobs according to their abilities and performance.
C.They will assign more work for the employees to do.
D.They will allow the personnel to do whatever work they want to do.
30.What does the underlined phrase"ring up sales"in paragraph two mean?B
A.make an order of goods.
B.record sales on a cash register.
C.call the sales manager.
D.keep track of the goods in stock.
31.What does the passage mainly discuss?D
A.Approaches to the commercial use of computers.
B.Advantages of credit cards in business.
C.Significance of automation in commercial enterprises.
D.Conveniences brought about by computers in business.

19.Miles to Go took me on a road trip through the life of a girl that I thought I already knew everything about.With every sentence,I felt like Miley was talking to me,having a sister-to-sister chat.She wrote this with her heart,and that is why it is so meaningful.
Miley is not a cookie-cutter (千篇一律的) celebrity,like many say.She knows where she came from and won't forget it.She lives by her values and holds onto her strong faith.
Family is always Miley's top priority.If her little sister,Noah,wants her to stay home and watch a movie,Miley will.Even if Miley gets invited to a celebrity party,it's clear that Miley will choose her family first.
My favorite part of the book is when she talks about Vanessa,a 9-year-old girl suffering from cystic fibrosis (囊性纤维变性).Miley met her at a hospital and they became friends.Miley kept in contact with her family and often visited Vanessa at the hospital or called when she was on tour.One day Miley called only to find that Vanessa's time on the earth had ended.Miley was very sad.She immediately got off the tour bus and lay down in a frozen field.This was when Miley realized how important it is to love every day and not take it for granted.This is just one of Miley's many     beautifull stories.
Miley connects with readers.For someone so young,Miley is one of the most brilliant people that I have ever seen.Her fame hasn't changed her; she stays grounded with the help of her family and her faith.
When this book came out,I became Miley's number-one fan all over again.In reading Miles to Go,I felt like a part of the family.
25.Why does the author think Miles to Go is very meaningful?A
A.Miley wrote the book with all her emotions.
