But in ancient times people used all kinds of things as money . One of the first kinds of money was shells(贝壳 )In china cloth and knives were used as money . Elephant tusks , monkey tails and salt were used in some parts of Africa .Rice was also a kind of money used by the ancient people in some islands .Cows and other animals were used as money, too. The first copper coins were made in china .They were round and had a square hole in the center .Different countries have used different metals(金属 )as their money . Later ,some countries began to make coins of gold (金 ) and silver (银) .But both gold and silver were heavy to carry when people needed a lot of coins to buy something expensive. The Chinese were the first to use paper money . The first paper money looked more like a note than the paper money used today . Money has had an interesting history from the days of shell money till today .26、People use money to buy .A food B bicycles C books D all the things they need 27 、 , they usually get paid in money .A When people buy things B When people have holidays C When people work D When people use money 28 、In ancient times , people use as money .A. cloth and knives B shells C. all kinds of things D animals 29 、The first coins were made of .A gold B copper C silver D paper 30 、The first paper notes were used in .A. China B Africa C some islands D different countries Do as the Romans Do BThe customs in different countries are rather different. If I have dinner with a Chinese host, he always puts more food onto my plates as soon as I have emptied it. That often discomforts me greatly. I have to eat the food even if I dont want to, because it is considered bad manners in the West to leave ones food on the plate. I have already noticed that when a Chinese sits at an Americans dinner party, he very often refuses the offer of food or drink though he is in fact still hungry or thirsty. This might be good manners in China, but it is not in the West at all. In the United States, it is impolite to keep asking someone again and again or insist on his accepting something. Americans have a direct way of speaking. If they want something, they will ask for it. If not, they will say, “No, thanks.” When an American is fed with beer by the host, for example, he might say, “No, thanks. Ill take some diet, Pepsy-Cola（百事可乐）if you have it. ”That is what an American will do. So when you go to the United States, you had better remember the famous saying: When in Rome, do as the Romans do. 31 From the passage, we can know that the Chinese are usually _ to the guests. A. very hotB. rude C. impoliteD. cold32. When a foreigner has dinner with a Chinese host, he often feels _. A. pleasantB. uncomfortable C. satisfiedD. happy33. Why does a Chinese often refuse the offer of food or drink at a dinner party? A. He has had enough. B. He is shy. C. He is afraid that others will laugh at him. D. He thinks its polite to do that. 34. When an American wants something to eat or drink at a dinner, he will _. A. ask for it boldly B. refuse the offer C. ask for it directly D. express himself indirectly35. “When in Rome, do as the Romans do “means “_”. A. When you got to Rome, you should act as the Romans do B. When you stay in Rome, you should do as the Romans do C. When you are in a new country, you should do as the locals do D. Romans can be an example for you C Come to Austria(奥地利)Soll is a village in the mountains in western Austria. And the Post Hotel is clean and not expensive. It is opened by a local family. From the hotel you can see the whole village, the forests and the mountains. Temperatures in summer are usually 20 to 25 in the daytime, but much cooler by evening. Enjoy Thailand(泰国)! When you visit Bangkok in Thailand, dont miss the early morning river boat trip to the Floating(漂浮) just outside the city. There you will find many kinds of fruits and vegetables. And you can pay for them when you sit in your boat. Dont forget your hat: the sun can be strong and it may be as hot as 40 at noon. Visit Hawaii! Maybe the most beautiful place in Hawaii is Kauai. You can visit its long, sandy beaches in the south and west of the island, and mountains and forests in the north, but dont be surprised if it rains in the centre of the island. Daytime temperatures there are usually around 24 to 26 by the sea, and only a little cooler by late evening. ( ) 36.The advertisements above are about _.
