Read the article below about money.
Choose the best word or phrase to fill each gap from A, B, C or D on the opposite page.
For each question(19-33), mark one letter(A, B, C or D)on your Answer Sheet.
There is an example at the beginning(0).
Salt, shells or metals are still used(0)money in out-of-the-way parts of the world today. Salt may seem rather a strange【C1】______to use as money,【C2】______in countries where the food of the people is mainly vegetable, it is often an【C3】______necessity. Cakes of salt, stamped to show their【C4】______, were used as money in some countries until recent 【C5】______, and cakes of salt【C6】______buy goods in Borneo and parts of Africa.
Sea shells【C7】______as money at some time【C8】______another over the greater part of the Old World. These were【C9】______mainly from the beaches of the Maldives Islands in the Indian Ocean, and were traded to India and China. In Africa, shells were traded right across the【C10】______from East to West.
Metal, valued by weight,【C11】______coins in many parts of the world. Iron, in lumps, bars or rings, is still used in many countries【C12】______paper money. It can either be exchanged 【C13】______goods, or made into tools, weapons, or ornaments. The early money of China, apart from shells, was of bronze,【C14】______in flat, round pieces with a hole in the middle, called "cash". The【C15】______of these are between three thousand and four thousand years old — older than the earliest coins of the eastern Mediterranean.
Nowadays, coins and notes have replaced nearly all the more picturesque forms of money, and while in one or two of the more remote countries people still hold it for future use on ceremonial occasions such as weddings and funerals, examples of primitive money will soon be found only in museums.
Example:
A for B as C in D to
【C9】
选项
A、collected
B、produced
C、grown
D、raised
答案
A
解析
本空所在句承接上两题,说明sea shells的主要来源。海贝壳通常是收集来的,collected意为“收集,采集”,可后接宾语shells,故为答案。produced“牛产”、grown“种植”、raised“饲养”,均与此处语义不符。
