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. [br] 【C9】
选项
A、collected
B、produced
C、grown
D、raised
答案
A
解析
词汇题。词义辨析题。collect“收集”,将现有的东西收集起来,如:collect stamps集邮。produce“生产”,指以脑力或体力劳动的方式创造出,如:produce a tapestry制造挂毯/produce a poem作诗。grow意为“种植”,海贝为生物,而只有植物才能被种植,因此,不符题意。raise意为“抚养”,如:raise cattle饲养家畜。如能produce(生产)或raise(饲养),就和“天然”之意相抵触。天然的海贝只能收集,因此,只有collect(收集)符合题意,为正确答案。
