How many coins have you got in your pocket right now? Three? Two? or One?

With a phonecard you can make up to 200 calls without any change at all.

   1. What do you do with it?

Go to a telephone box marked “Phonecard”. Put in your card to start, make your call and when you have finished, a screen tells you how much is left on your card.

It costs no extra for the cards, and the calls cost 10p per unit, the same as any other pay-phone call.

You can buy them in units of 10, 20, 40, 100 or 200.

   2. Now appearing in a shop near you

Near each phonecard place you will find a shop where you can buy one. They’re at bus, train and city tube stations.

At many universities, hospitals and clubs, restaurants and gas stations on the highway and shopping centers.

At airports and seaports.

    3. No more broken payphones

Most broken payphones are like that because they’ve been damaged. There are no coins in a cardphone to excite thieves’ interest in it. So you’re not probably to find a broken one.

Get a phonecard yourself and try it out. Or get a bigger wallet.

1.The passage is most probably          .

         A.a warning                    B.a notice

         C.an advertisement             D.an announcement

2.There are three sections in the passage. Which one do you think is about why phonecards are good?

           A.Section 1  B.Section 2.   C.Section 3.    D.none.

3.Which statement of the following is right by inference(推断)?

           A.Using a phonecard will cost you less money than payphone call.

           B.Phonecards are easier to carry.

           C.If a thief steals your phonecard, he can’t use it any more.

           D.When you finish your call, take out your card first and then you will see how many calls you can still make.
