RICE
Rice, or com, is the very bedrock of Vietnamese cuisine. In imperial Hue, rice with salt was served to
distinguished guests by royal mandarins; these days locals eats at least one rice-based meal every day
and offer a bowl of rice to departed ancestors.
If a Vietnamese says, ‘An com di’ (literally ‘let’s eat rice’), it’s an invitation to lunch or dinner. You
can also get your fill of the stuff, accompanied by a variety of stir-fried meat, fish and vegetable dishes,
at specialized, informal eateries called quan com binh dan.
Cooked to a soupy state with chicken, eel or duck, rice become chao (rice porridge); fried in a hot wok
with egg, vegetables and other ingredients, it’s com rang; and ‘broken’ into short grains, steamed,
topped with barbecued pork, an egg, and sliced cucumber, and accompanied by nuoc cham (a dipping
sauce of sweetened fish sauce), it’s com tam. Tiny clams called hen are sautéed with peppery
Vietnamese coriander and ladled over rice to make com hen.

WHAT’S IN YOUR PHONE?
Armed with digital devices, young people are leading the way to a cashless future with 111% increase
in consumer use of mobile person-to-person payment methods between 2014 and 2017, according to
Boston-based research firm. Dylan Oesch-Emmel, a freshman at Tufts University, can count on one
hand the times he has used cash recently: to convert currency for a trip to Montreal, and for cab fare
when his smart phone died and he couldn’t use Uber.

“Quite frankly, I use zero cash,” said Oesch Emmel, 19, a Stoneham native. Like many in his age
bracket, Oesch-Emmel does his banking online, rarely uses an ATM, and keeps a credit card for

backup. Nearly all his purchases are made with payment apps on his iPhone 7 linked to his debit card:
Venmo, which lets you make and share payments with friends, to split dinner and ride home with
friends, for example, or goPuff to have the essentials of college life, such as shampoo, floss, and
Cheetos, delivered to his dorm.
Yet while younger people such as Oesch-Emmel don’t have much use for cash, the United States
actually lags other nations in moving toward a largely cashless financial system. Credit and debit cards
have been in wide use here for much longer, and the nation’s large, complex banking system makes it
difficult to adopt change quickly.
Shaun Ferrari, managing director of Currency Research, said electronic payment businesses are still at
the stage here where they are competing against each other more so than cash. “It appears as though
electronic forms of payment are cannibalizing each other rather than replacing cash,” Ferrari said.
“Mobile has a long way to go to be a significant player in the payment landscape in the US.”
Boston-based research firm Aite Group in February reported a 111 percent increase in consumer use of
mobile person-to-person payment methods between 2104 and 2017. A few of the big names are
showing commanding gains: Zelle had a 59 percent rise in processing volume in 2018, to $119 billion.
Venmo, for its part, processed $62 billion last year, up from $35 billion the year before One
explanation for those increases, said Talie Baker of the Aite Group, is the ability of payment systems to
be made in real time, instead of that lag people used to experience waiting for money to clear. This has
made digital payments feel the same as getting cash, more or less instant and around the clock.
Question 31: What does the passage primarily discuss?
A. The reason for the sluggish development of cash-consuming countries
B. The speculation that cash will eventually “go the way of dinosaurs”
C. The declining amount of cash in the financial system
D. The fact that cash are being rejected and the explanation for this
Question 32: What can NOT be inferred according to the first paragraph?
