If seems very natural that if you have two dollars and add two dollars to them. You have four dollars. But do you know it took men millions of years to be able to think this way? In fact, one of the most difficult things to teach children is the idea of numbers.
In ancient times when a man wanted to tell how many animals he owned, he had no system of numbers to use. He put a stone into a bag for each animal. The more animals, the more stones be had. It may explain why the word “calculate” comes from the Latin word “calculus”. “Calculus” means “stone”.
Then, man used lines to count. People would just draw a line for each thing they wanted to count, but they had no word to tell the number.
Later on, people used fingers. Again, we have the word that goes back to this. The word “digit” comes from the Latin word “digitus”. It means “finger”! And the fact that we have 10 fingers led to the use of 10 in the system of numbers.
The number system we use today was invented by the Hindus in India thousands of years ago and was brought to Europe during 8th to 11th century by Arab traders (商人). In this system, people count things with ten numbers: 1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9. and 0. It is decimal system, that is, it is built on the base of 10.
16. How many ways of counting things are introduced to us in the passage?
A. One B. Two C. Three D. Four
17. If A and B each drew four lines to count their own sheep, how many sheep did they have together?
A. Four B. Six C. Bight D. Ten
18. Why do people use 10 in the system of numbers?

B. Because we only have 10 fingers.
C. Because we have no word to tell the number.
D. Because we have no system of numbers to use.
19. What does “decimal system” mean in the last paragraph?
A. 数字系统 B. 计算工具 C. 十进制 D. 小数点
20. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A. Numbers and trading B. Ways of counting in Modern Times
C. Animals and calculating D. Development of counting System

Its tail is longer than its body. It can travel 1, 600 kilometers in a day. We can see it in the popular movie Fantastic Beasts II in 2021.
