B ① ② ③ ④ 2. Put the following pictures in order according to paragraph 2. Stone needles Bian metal needles stainless steel needles As acupuncture developed, the simple bian stones were replaced by stone needles. Eventually, metal needles began to appear and took the place of stone needles. These solid needles are made of different metals, such as gold and silver. Some acupuncturists today still use gold and silver needles, but the majority have now switched to stainless steel ones. In addition to the changes in material, the shapes of the needles have also changed over time. Originally, there were nine different kinds of needles, with variations in shape. Nowadays, the fine sharp needles that measure usually between 15 and 75 millimetres in length are still used, while most of the others have been replaced by more complex medical instruments.
