School is expensive for many African children. Lots of families can’t afford school uniforms or exercise books even though they don’t have to pay for school.

In modern society, people use money every day. It seems that it is very important in our life. That’s because without money you can’t buy any goods(商品) you want. But I think few people know the history of money.
Long ago, people did not need money. They lived on wild animals, fruits and other plants. As time passed, people learned to raise animals and crops. Sometimes, families produced more than they needed, so they started to trade with other families. Later, people began to use money as a means of exchange. However, it was not the kind of money we use today. They used shells, rice, salt, large stones, etc.
During the 600s BC, people began using coins as money. They soon found that coins were easier to carry than goods and lasted a long time. Later, countries began to make their own coins.
The Chinese were the first to use paper money, probably as early as the 11^th century. The Italian traveler Marco Polo saw the Chinese using money when he visited China in the 1200s. However, European countries did not start using paper money until 1600s.
Today, we have many ways to pay for things. We do not use coins or paper money. Often, people prefer to pay for things by card. Paying with a card is easier and safer than carrying around a lot of “real” money.
小题1: People used ________ as a means of exchange before the 7^th century BC.
A. paper money B. card
C. large stone D. coins
小题2:From the passage, we know that European countries used paper money in the ________.

A．11^th century	B．12^th century
C．16^th century	D．17^th century

小题3:Which of the following is TRUE in this article?

A．Marco Polo was from Canada.

B．Chinese used paper money earlier than Italy.

C．Today people often prefer to pay for things by salt.

D．Carrying around much “real” money is easier and safer than Paying with a card.

A crow(乌鸦) is about twenty inches(英寸) long and black all over. Crows are dirty birds because they live on bad food. Crows eat a lot of waste food. In this way they are more useful to us than any birds. They clean up the dirty things in our streets. Crows are always hungry.

Crows are much noisier than other birds. Very often a large number of crows will get together on one house and talk.

Hanging Gardens of Babylon(巴比伦空中花园)

The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were built in the 7^th century BC and are considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were amazing not only because of their beauty, but also because of their location.
In the 7^th century BC a king named Nebudchadnezzar II created the gardens as a sign of love for his wife, Amyitis. According to legend, Amyitis, the daughter of the king of the Medes, was homesick. She missed the green hills and valleys of her homeland.
Upon marrying Nebudchadnezzar II, Amyitis moved to the ancient chief city of Babylon. The area was in the Mesopotamian desert, and the climate there was totally different from where she had left. So the new queen was very sad about the flat and the sun-baked desert. To make Amyitis happier and more comfortable the king decided to build her a series of magnificent gardens.
Many think of the gardens as an otherworldly creation that hung in the air somehow. But experts agree that the gardens were actually built on a mountainside, rather than actually “hanging”.
The hanging Gardens of Babylon are famous. Stories of them spread throughout the ancient world, and ancient writers recorded a large number of descriptions of the gardens, but some wonder whether this paradise of the past ever existed. There are no historical records of it except stories. Whatever may happen, even the idea of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon is amazing. They were essentially impossible to create because of the climate, but they were kept in the minds of many as a botanical beauty created in the middle of unattractive desert scenery.
小题1:Hanging Gardens of Babylon are considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, aren’t they?
小题2:What makes the Hanging Gardens of Babylon so amazing and famous?
小题3:Why did the king Nebudchadnezzar II create Hanging Gardens of Babylon?
小题4:What made the Hanging Gardens of Babylon essentially impossible to create?
小题5:According to the experts, were the Hanging Gardens of Babylon really hanging or built on a mountainside?
小题6:Did Hanging Gardens of Babylon really exist? What makes you think so? (In no more than THREE sentences)
