    阅读下列短文，从所给的四个选项中，选出佳答案

    　An American housewife was pushing her shopping basket through a supermarket with one hand．With her other hand she was holding on to her small child．She arrived at the checkout counter (结账柜台) and thought：“Now another 20 minutes”．But her bill (清单) was ready in 20 seconds．

    　Twenty seconds? Yes．A new machine is doing the job．It‘reads’a stamp (标记) of black and white lines on each tin (罐头), box or bottle．These little lines 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 commodities (商品) 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．The machines—now in 20 supermarkets in the United States—save a lot of time and money．And they don't make as many mistakes as people． Some shoppers, however, are complaining (抱怨) that they can't read the prices of the goods．All they can see are little black and white lines．The prices are on the shelves but they want them on the goods．Many people aren't sure whether the expensive new machines are honest shopkeepers!

    (1) According to the passage, before coming to the checkout counter, the American housewife thought she had to stay in the supermarket for ________．

    [　　]

    A．nearly half an hour

    B．some time we're not sure

    A．be home in 20 minutes

    B．get her bill in 20 seconds

    C．get her bill in 20 seconds

    D．have to wait at least 20 minutes

    (3) The customers needn't wait long for their bills in the supermarket because ________．

    [　　]

    A．the checkout-counter girls read more quickly

    B．the commodities move along more quickly

    C．the prices and the taxes are lower

    D．a new machine has come into use

    (4) Thinking of these new machines, ________．

    [　　]

    A．all the shoppers are very pleased

    B．the customers complain about the mistakes made by them

    C．people like them because they save both money and time

    D．people were worried about the fact that they are too expensive

    (5) Some shoppers are unhappy because ________．

    [　　]

    A．the little black and white lines are difficult for them to see

    B．the machine can read the prices on the tins but they can't

    C．the machines are too expensive

    D．the prices on the shelves are worrying them
