Given the advantages of electronic money, you might think that we would move quickly to the cashless society in which all payments are made electronically. However, a true cashless society is probably not around the corner. Indeed, predictions have been around for two decades but have not yet come to fruition. For example, Business Week predicted in 1975 that electronic means of payment would soon "revolutionize the very concept of money itself," only to reverse itself several years later. Why has the movement to a cashless society been so slow in coming?

今日句子分析：

Given the advantages of electronic money, you might think that we would move quickly to the cashless society in which all payments are made electronically.

given 此处做介词，表示“鉴于，考虑到”

那么Given the advantages of electronic money就是介宾短语做状语，这句话真正的主语是后面的you might think that...

在这个很长的宾语从句中，真正的主干是we would move quickly to the cashless society

那什么是cashless society? 所以又嵌套了一个定语从句来解释它，all payments are made electronically in the cashless society

另外本篇讲电子支付、无现金社会，可以很好地积累相关词汇并体会构词法。比如：

electronic money

electronically

payment

cashless

predict

prediction
