听力原文: One of the first things a visitor does upon arrival in another country is to get to know the local money. American money is unlike the money used in many other countries, since the bills, or paper money, are all the same colour and size no matter how much it is. Visitors should be careful to look at the bill before giving it out. Besides, new bills often stick together.
The coins of every country are difficult to learn at first. American coins are represented by the cent sign. Also the size of American coins do not show the value. For example, the 10-cent coin is smaller than the 5-cent coin, although it is worth twice as much. All United States coins are silver coloured, except for the "penny" (one-cent piece) , Which is a brown coin. Here are more details about Ameican coins.
Why are American bills or paper money unlike that in many other countries?
A.American bills are not the same color.
B.American bills are the same size and color.
C.American bills are the same color but different size.

听力原文: Nowadays, at each check-out counter in almost all supermarkets, a new machine is helping customers in a hurry. An electronic system "reads" a bar code on each tin, box or bottle. These little lines of the bar code give the computer all the information it needs -- the kind of product, the price and the tax. The girl at the counter simply moves the groceries along in front of the "eye" of the machine. And the bill is ready in no time.
Most people are very pleased with this new idea. They don't make as many mistakes as people. Some shoppers, how ever, are complaining. They can’t read the price of the food on a tin when all they can see is just little black and white lines. The prices are on the shelves, but they want them on each tin. Many people are not sure that machines are honest shopkeepers! The machines are very expensive. But everyone, even these worried shoppers, will be happy, if in the end, they bring food prices down.
The main idea of this passage is that ______.
A.supermarkets are becoming more and more popular
B.computers find use in supermarkets
C.a new way of checking out in supermarkets
D.people are not used to the new machine
