Reading Comprehension Today anyone will accept money in exchange for goods and services. People use money to buy food,furniture, books, bicycles and hundreds of other things they need or want. When they work, they usually get paid in money. Most of the money today is made of metal or paper. But people used to use all kinds of things as money. One of the first kinds of money was shells. Shells were not the only things used as money. In China, cloth and knives were used. In the PhillipineIslands, rice was used as money for a long time. Elephant tusks, monkey tails and salt were used as money inparts of Africa. The first metal coins were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in the centre. People strung (串联) them together and carried them from place to place. Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money. The first coins in Englandwere made of tin (锡). Sweden and Russia used copper (铜) to make their money. Later some countries beganto make coins of gold and silver. But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive. Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money. They began to use paper money. The first paper money looked more likenote from one person to another than the paper money used today. Money has had an interesting history from the days of shell money until today.41. Which of the following can be cited as an example of the use of money in exchange for services? D.

About 97% of water on the earth is sea water,or salt water. Man can only drink or use the other 3of the fresh water (淡水) which comes from rivers, lakes and underground. On the other hand, because the number of people in the world is becoming larger andlarger, more and more fresh water is needed. So water shortage becomes a big problem. How can we work out this problem? Scientists have found some ways to turn salt water into fresh water. One important way is to boil (使达到沸点) sea water with high heat until vapor (蒸汽) rises, leaving the salt. Inthis way, a lot of fresh water can be made quickly. But heating is not the only way to get fresh water. Other ways are tried, for example, digging (挖) deep wells(深井), keeping rain water and preventing rivers from being polluted. Which way is the best?
