long time ago people began to exchange things with each other.If somebody had a cow and wanted some cloth,he exchanged the cows milk for it.People could exchange anything that someone else wanted and could use.So people in different places used different kinds of money,such as sheep,fish and knives.The Japanese exchanged rice,the Chinese used tea,and in Ethiopia they used salt.After many years people began to use gold,and then they made coins.But coins were heavy,and people didnt like to carry them,so they started to use paper money.Its said the Chinese first used paper money.Today checks are another kind of paper moneyyou sign your name and tell the bank to pay another person.Of course money can be a terrible problem.If you dont have any,you are really in trouble.But when you do have money,there are people who want to steal itand sometimes kill you because they want or need it so much.So,poor people are worried because they cant buy things that they need and often cant pay their bills.And rich people are worried because maybe tomorrow theyre going to be poor.18.What does the passage mainly talk about?A.Money in different countries.B.How money developed.C.Money

put food out to attract more birds.Everything was fine for a few days until one afternoon there was a strange bumping noise on a window.Emily went outside and found a small bird dead on the grass.Its neck seemed to be broken.“It must have flown into the window,” Alex said when his sister Emily called him to have a look.“Ah,yes,look here.You can see the mark where it hit the window.There are a

of having a university education and now Im getting one!” she told me.We became friends.Every day we would talk nonstop after class.I always enjoyed listening to this “time machine” as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.And Rose easily made friends wherever she went.At the end of the term we invited Rose to make a little speech.She cleared her throat and began,“We do not stop playing because we are old;we grow old because we stop playing.Ive learned a few secrets to staying young,being happy,and achieving success.You have to laugh and find humor every day.Youve got to have a
