Salt, shells or metals are still used as 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【C16】______nearly all the more picturesque【C17】______of money , and【C18】______in one or two of the more remote countries people still keep it for future use on ceremonial【C19】______such as weddings and funerals, examples of【C20】______money will soon be found only in museum.

选项
A、abstract
B、advantageous
C、abundant
D、absolute
答案
D
解析
词汇题。词义辨析题。absolute“绝对的,不受限定的、无条件的”,absolute necessity“绝对的必需品”。此句说盐是当地人的一种生活必需品。因此,absolute符合题意,为正确答案。abstract意为“抽象的”,如:Do you know these abstract words?你知道这些抽象名词吗?选项advantageous意为“有利的”,如:It is highly advantageous tous.这对我们极为有利。abundant意为“丰富的,充足的”,如:I believe it is a region abundant in wildlife.我相信这是一个野生动物极多的地区。可见,这几个选项均不符题意。
