A
I had all the usual child fears. I couldn’t go to sleep unless the light in my
bedroom was on. I dreaded that someday when my mother was distracted, Crazy Betty
would grab me in the grocery store. On the hottest summer nights, my feet had to be
wrapped tightly in my bedsheets for fear that something might grab it in its cold,
slimy claw.
But all other frights paled before the Great Fear, the Titanic of my childhood
terrors. That fear was that something would happen to Monk-Monk.
Looking at Monk-Monk today, you wouldn’t see what I see. You’d see an old, torn,
discolored sock monkey with stuffing leaking from his short tail. I see my dearest
childhood friend, my companion of a thousand nights. I bonded with him fiercely and
rarely let him out of my sight.
And then Uncle Ken came to visit. He clearly thought it was pretty silly that
a big first-grader was dragging a sock monkey around, and he teased me by saying he’d
take Monk-Monk home to Ohio with him. I clutched (抓住) Monk-Monk more tightly.
I was at school a few days later when Uncle Ken left. When I came home, I couldn’t
find Monk- Monk anywhere. I can hardly describe the depths of my panic. I don’t think
I cried; my terror was beyond that. I could barely breathe. Where was Monk-Monk? What
has Uncle Ken done to him? Had Uncle Ken thrown him out of his car window? Was Monk-Monk
lying in a weedy strip along the interstate, lonely and cold, never to be loved again?
When I found Monk-Monk behind the sofa, I cried with relief. As far as I can remember,
that near-loss of Monk-Monk was my first encounter with real, deep-down fear.

In addition to sightseeing, shopping is a popular activity for many Chinese
tourists when they go abroad. Their huge buying power has made them become known as
“walking wallets”. However, thanks to mobile payment services such as WeChat Pay
and Alipay, perhaps “walking e-wallets” would be a better nickname.

According to Xinhua News Agency, WeChat Pay’s overseas service is available for
Chinese tourists in 12 countries and regions, including Thailand, South Korea, Japan
and Canada. Many Chinese visitors used WeChat Pay in convenience stores and duty-free
shops and restaurants abroad.
“I don’t need to take my wallet out. I don’t need to wait for change. There
is some discount and no commission(佣金). This payment method has so many
advantages,” a Beijing woman told Xinhua while shopping in Thailand.
Alipay is also popular with Chinese tourists overseas. With about 450 million
users, Alipay is accepted by more than 80,000 companies worldwide, according to China
Daily.
When 33-year-old Shanghai resident Xu Lei walked into the Santa Claus Village
tourism office in Rovaniemi, Finland, he was surprised to spot a sign with Alipay
logo, which meant he could use the Alipay mobile app on his phone to scan a QR code
provided by the tourism office to pay, just as he would back home.
Yet in the eyes of Yu Jin, chief operations officer of Caissa Tourist Group AG
in Hamburg, Xu should not have been surprised. “Now, the whole European industry
is paying greater attention to Chinese tourists’ shopping habits and consumption,”
he told China Daily.
Although mobile payments can bring convenience, they are not without security
risks. Recently for the security reasons, Alipay has introduced new digital payment
methods to users, allowing customers to process payments using a “voiceprint”,
reported China Daily.

because .
A. these two payment methods are safer
B. Chinese tourists no longer bring cash at hand
C. Europeans prefer these mobile payment services
D. foreign industry attaches great importance to Chinese customers
6. Which can be the best title of this passage?
A. Mobile Payment Going Abroad.
B. WeChat Pay and Alipay Services.
C. “Walking E-wallets” Overseas.
D. Mobile Payment growing Faster.

Encouragement, what is a kind of power, is very important.
Failing my English exam once got me casting down. My teacher encouraged me not
to lose hearts. He said it was no big deal to fail a exam and what mattered was to
figure out the reasons instead of feeling sorry for me. I looked into my English paper
and realized that the reason why I failed was because I had two weeks’ sick leave.
So I made up for the lessons I have missed and my efforts was paid off in the following
exams.
Encouragement is great benefit to me and I’ll give it to those who are in need
of it.
