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、in spite of
B、instead of
C、along with
D、in line with
答案
C
解析
词汇题。固定搭配词组的词义辨析。along with表示“连同……一起”,句中含有still(仍然)一词,表示这些金属钱币使用的延续性,本句意为“各种形状的铁铸货币在许多国家和纸币一起使用”,既符合文章含义,又符合客观事实,因此,为正确答案。instead of“代替”,如:He’ll go instead of you.他去,而不是你去。选择此项有背客观事实,众所周知,纸币是目前世界上最通用的货币形式之一。in spite of表示“尽管,不顾……”,如:They kept going in spite of their fears.他们不顾害怕继续前进。inline with表示“符合,和……一致”,如:They reached a wage agreement in line with current inflation.他们达成了和现行通货膨胀相配合的工资协议。可见,此三选项均不符题意。
