        2017年5月21日大学英语六级口语考试的第三场小组讨论（Pair work）的话题为e-pay“电子支付”。
        这一话题在去年的六级口语考试中已经考过一次了，今年再一次考，可见命题人对这个话题的热衷程度是非常高的，而且这个话题也是最近几年非常火热的一个话题。
        那么遇到这个讨论话题，同学们该如何应对呢？下面给大家提供一组参考对话：
        A: What kind of payment do you use most? Cash or e-pay?
        B: Well, I use “e-pay” most. You know, it’s more convenient than cash. What about you?
        A: I prefer “e-pay” too. It can save you much time looking for cash. By the way, Alipay is my favorite.
        B: Yeah, that’s right. It saves us a lot of time. But for most elderly people, it’s a bit difficult for them to learn how to use the modern way of payment.
        A: Quite true. It’s not easy for them to learn new high technologies. What’s more, many of them don’t trust e-pay.
        B: Their worry isn’t without reason. Risks do exist in e-pay.
        A: Yeah. The use of e-pay may result in a loss of money if your payment environment is insecure. Some hackers may invade your phone and steal your money from your e-bank accounts.
        B: How to ensure the security of electronic payment?
        A: Well, you must make sure the Wi-Fi you connect is secure. And the most important thing is— do not click unknown websites.
