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. __【小题3】__
Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money. __【小题4】__ Sweden and Russia used copper to make their money. Later some countries began to 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. __【小题5】__ The first paper money looked more like a note from one person to another than the paper money used today.

【小题1】G
【小题2】B
【小题3】D
【小题4】A
【小题5】F

解析试题分析:本文叙述了中国是最早的金属币的使用国家,讲述的是我国的圆形方孔钱即我国的“铜钱”, 由于携带不方便所以金属货币被纸币所取代,就出现了最早的纸币,随后描述了纸币的特征,所以我们就开始使用纸币了。
【小题1】根据People use money to buy food, furniture, books, bicycles and hundreds of other things they need or want.后面谈到人们的生活离不开钱,所以第一句应该填货币的重要性众所周知。故选G。
【小题2】根据整个第三自然段的核心意思是在很久以前人们使用各种各样形式的货币,而第二段讲述的是货币的形式主要是金属和纸币,与第三段的内容截然不同,所以我们要采用转折句来描述以前的货币形式种类多样。故选B。
【小题3】中国是最早的金属币的使用国家,讲述的是我国的圆形方孔钱即我国的“铜钱”,紧接着描述的是把钱串起来使用,在古代称为“一贯”,故选D。
【小题4】第五段讲述的是不同的国家用不同的金属来设计和制造本国的货币,如瑞典和俄国用铜,那我们可以推测到本空要写英国最早使用锡。故选A。
【小题5】最后一段讲述到由于携带不方便所以金属货币被纸币所取代,就出现了最早的纸币,随后描述了纸币的特征,所以我们选人们开始使用纸币。故选F。

根据短文内容,从下边的A—F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。
A . The different structure of blue holes.        
B. Why scientists are interested in blue holes.        
C. How a blue hole comes into being.
D. Blue holes exploring is becoming popular.
E. Rules to obey when diving into blue holes.
F. The general definition of a blue hole.
【小题1】______________
A blue hole is a flooded sea cave with a hole that opens up at the land's surface. These cave systems form in carbonate rock, often on islands. Some blue holes have very special rock formations and water chemistry. Far below sea level, they contain some of the harshest environments on Earth, with no oxygen and no light. Yet these areas are filled with life forms that have adapted to the extreme conditions.
【小题2】___________
Blue holes get their name from the color some have when seen from the air. The color is usually a reflection of the sky on the water. Blue holes are the result of erosion in which water breaks down rock. Rain falling thousands of years ago contained chemicals which slowly wore away at the limestone landmass. These holes later filled with sea water as the sea level changed. The rising and falling of sea levels and the mixture of salt and fresh water further wore away at these cave formations.
【小题3】 ____________
These flooded cave systems can be found in the ocean, or they can be found inland. Ocean caves are affected by tides, so they always have water movement. But blue holes on land are very still. They have several layers of water, chemicals, and bacteria. The top layer of fresh water comes from rainfall. This layer acts like a cap on top of the layered mixture, and keeps out oxygen from the atmosphere. The fresh water floats on a denser layer of saltwater. Underneath this is a layer of poisonous hydrogen sulfide, produced by bacteria living in the water. Underneath this layer is anoxic seawater -- water that does not contain any oxygen.
【小题4】___________
Information gathered from these blue holes is helping scientists to increase their understanding of biology, archaeology and geology. But exploring these blue hole environments brings danger as well as discovery. Scientists are interested in these caves because oxygen-free conditions there are similar to those on Earth long ago, before oxygen existed on our planet. But there are many difficulties involved in diving into blue holes.
【小题5】___________
One reason blue holes have not been fully explored is that they can be extremely dangerous. There are many safety rules that divers must follow to help ensure their survival. First, divers must have training and experience to swim in these caves. Divers who explore a cave for the first time must establish a thin rope called a guideline. This line helps them to safely enter and exit the cave without getting lost.

Secrets of People Who Never Get Sick
How do some friends survive every winter without even catching a cold? Some experts believe that they boost their immunity through simple lifestyle habits. Let’s steal their strategies and stay healthy all winter long.
【小题1】. _________________
It’s long been known that friendship is good for your health. In fact, people with six or more types of relationships in their lives were 25% less likely to get sick than those with three or fewer. It’s possible that people with varies social networks have diverse perceptions of themselves—as a co-worker, friend or community member. That boosts self-esteem and makes it easier to avoid stress. As a result, these people tend to stay healthier. Steal this secret: Be open to meeting new people; go to new events and reestablish old friendship.
【小题2】 _________________
Research has found that moderate exercise can improve immune function and build up resistance to colds and infections. On study of 36 overweight women, conducted at Loma Linda University, in California, found that those who walked quickly for 45 minutes 5 days a week reported half the number of days with cold symptoms during a 15-week period as their sedentary(久坐的) counterparts. Steal the secret: Aim for 40 to 45 minutes of moderate exercise, such as brisk walking, cycling, swimming or light running, at least five days a week.
【小题3】. _________________
Numerous studies have found that writing about a difficult or painful event not only accelerates the process of coping with it, but also can improve your physical health. When people write about upsetting or distressing experiences, it helps them judge the events more sensibly, understand them better and move on. Steal the secret: set aside twenty minutes a day for three successive days to write about the things that are most important to you now and how they’re affecting you.
【小题4】. _________________
Even small pleasures—having friends over for dinner, playing with your kids in the backyard or going to a concert—can boost your immune system. In fact, according to research at the State University of New York, positive events have a better effect on immune function than negative events. Steal this secret: Make time for yourself. Start devoting at least half an hour a day to talking to a friend, reading a book or indulging in your favorite activity. Think of it as preventive medicine.
【小题5】. __________________
Experts know that pressure increases the chance of catching the cold. The reason? Your body’s helper—T cells, which are key to defending against viruses, become weakened when you’re worn out. Steal the secret: Do some problem-solving. First, take a hard look at the situation and really consider whether you can do anything to change things. If you conclude that you can’t change that situation, try to change your physical and emotional reactions to it. Engaging in meditation, yoga or deep-breathing exercises and listing to calming music also help relieve stress.
