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.71
Most of the money today is made of metal or paper. 72 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 Philippine Islands, rice was used as money for a long time. Elephant tusks, monkey tails and salt were used as money in parts of Africa.
The first metal coins were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in the centre. 73
Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money. 74 Sweden and Russia used copper (铜) to make their money. Later some countries began to make coins of gold and silver.[来源:Z_xx_k.Com]
But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive. Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money. 75 The first paper money looked more like a note 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.
A. The first coins in England were made of tin (锡).

F. They began to use paper money.
G. Today anyone will accept money in exchange for goods and services.

Many children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance. 71
The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family. Timing is another consideration. 72 Others get a monthly allowance.
In any case, parents should make clear what, if anything, the children is expected to pay for with the money.
73 If they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget. Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowance.
The object is to show young people that a budget demands choices between spending and saving. Older children may be responsible enough to save money for larger costs, like clothing or electronics.
Many people who have written on the subject of allowances say it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life.
Paying children to do extra work around the house, however, can be useful. 74
Allowances give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with money. 75 They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can save it.
A.They can share it in the form of gifts or giving to a good cause. |
B.The purpose is to let children learn from experience at an age when financial mistakes are not very costly. |
C.They are not less likely to make mistakes. |
D.Some children get a weekly allowance. |
E. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works.
F. Their parents will teach them a hard lesson.

No fight can end, and no friendship can move on, until everyone says these little words : I’m sorry . Sometimes, though, they can be difficult to say. 71
It’s not about winning.
Friendships aren’t like the Super Bowl, and there should never be a winner and a loser. When you start fighting with a friend, it may feel important that you “win” the fight by proving you’re right and he is wrong , or by making him be the first to apologize .
In reality, you’ll BOTH LOSE if you let your fight ruin your friendship, and you will BOTH WIN if you find a way to heal it.
72
You may have heard the expression.“His pride stood in the way .”It is usually used to describe a person who is so determined to be “ right ” that he lets an opportunity for happiness pass him by forever . 73 Remember: as time goes on, we usually forget who was right and who was wrong in a disagreement, and only remember the sadness of losing a friend.
Take the first step.
Are you sick of fighting? Do you think this fight is just not important enough to ruin your friendship? 74 You don’t have to take full responsibility for starting the fight, or even say that your feelings were wrong. But you should find something you did or said that’s worth apologizing for. Maybe you’re sorry that you let the fight go for so long , or that you overreacted (反应过度) to something your friend did . If you say you’re sorry, it’s like an invitation for your friend to do the same. 75
A. Then try to be the first to apologize.
B. Stop thinking about your pride.
C. It’s about taking some responsibility for the argument.
D. Don’t let this happen to a friendship you care about.
E. Here are some things to keep in mind.
F. There are some special cases when you shouldn’t be the one to apologize first .
G. Once you’ve both said it, you’ll both feel a million times better .
