It's a popular phrase that reminds us 4 in life is truly free. Even when something appears to be free,there is almost always a hidden cost.For example,when a store.offers a“free” gift,you might need to buy 5 product first. Or, if a friend treats you to lunch,you may feel like you 6 return the favour someday. This idea is especially important when it comes to money. People work hard to earn money— 7 studying, training, and doing their jobs every day.They then use that money to 8 necessities like food, housing, education, and healthcare. So 9 an advertisement claims something is ‘free”, it's wise to ask:Who is actually paying for it? Often, companies offer free samples or trials 10 attract customers. In return, they may collect your contact much 11 or convince you to buy more later. Understanding that there's no free lunch helps us become smarter about spending and saving.It teaches us to read the fine print, compare prices,and avoid deals that sound too good to be true.Money is valuable because it represents time and effort. Learning to use it 12 from a young age can lead to a more secure and independent future. Remember: if something seems free, look closer—there's usually a price tag 13 somewhere.

(连词成句) C.Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答问题)(共8分) The amazing journey of money Have you ever wondered how people acquired goods before money was invented? Long ago, people used a system called “barter”. to get what they needed.Barter is the direct exchange of goods for other goods.For example,a farmer with too much rice could trade with a fisherman for some fresh fish.Both parties had to have something the other wanted,which was often difficult.This is known as the.“double coincidence of wants.” However, the barter system had many problems.What if the fisherman didn't need rice that day?What if the goods were not easy to divide or carry? For instance, it was impractical (不切实际的to carry a cow to the market just to buy a few shoes,orí) Slowly, people started to use certain items as a medium of exchange.Some cultures used rare and beautiful things like cowrie shells or salt.In China,bronze tools and weapons were also used.These items were widely accepted and could be used to “buy”various goods and services,making trade much easier. As societies advanced, people began to use precious metals like gold and silver. These metals were made into coins of standard sizes and values, which was a huge step forward. Later, even lighter and more convenient paper money appeared. Today, we are in the age of digital money, where payments can be made with a simple tap on a phone. From barter to Bitcoin,the journey of money reflects the creativity of human beings in solving problems. Task 1: 36. What was the main problem with the barter system according to the passage? 37. Why was it impractical to trade a cow for a few pairs of shoes? 38. List two items that were once used as a medium of exchange before coins. 39.

It's a popular phrase that reminds us 4 in life is truly free. Even when something appears to be free,there is almost always a hidden cost.For example,when a store.offers a“free” gift,you might need to buy 5 product first. Or, if a friend treats you to lunch,you may feel like you 6 return the favour someday. This idea is especially important when it comes to money. People work hard to earn money— 7 studying, training, and doing their jobs every day.They then use that money to 8 necessities like food, housing, education, and healthcare. So 9 an advertisement claims something is ‘free”, it's wise to ask:Who is actually paying for it? Often, companies offer free samples or trials 10 attract customers. In return, they may collect your contact much 11 or convince you to buy more later. Understanding that there's no free lunch helps us become smarter about spending and saving.It teaches us to read the fine print, compare prices,and avoid deals that sound too good to be true.Money is valuable because it represents time and effort. Learning to use it 12 from a young age can lead to a more secure and independent future. Remember: if something seems free, look closer—there's usually a price tag 13 somewhere.

Long ago, people used a system called “barter”. to get what they needed.Barter is the direct exchange of goods for other goods.For example,a farmer with too much rice could trade with a fisherman for some fresh fish.Both parties had to have something the other wanted,which was often difficult.This is known as the.“double coincidence of wants.” However, the barter system had many problems.What if the fisherman didn't need rice that day?What if the goods were not easy to divide or carry? For instance, it was impractical (不切实际的to carry a cow to the market just to buy a few shoes,orí) Slowly, people started to use certain items as a medium of exchange.Some cultures used rare and beautiful things like cowrie shells or salt.In China,bronze tools and weapons were also used.These items were widely accepted and could be used to “buy”various goods and services,making trade much easier. As societies advanced, people began to use precious metals like gold and silver. These metals were made into coins of standard sizes and values, which was a huge step forward. Later, even lighter and more convenient paper money appeared. Today, we are in the age of digital money, where payments can be made with a simple tap on a phone. From barter to Bitcoin,the journey of money reflects the creativity of human beings in solving problems. Task 1: 36. What was the main problem with the barter system according to the passage? 37. Why was it impractical to trade a cow for a few pairs of shoes? 38. List two items that were once used as a medium of exchange before coins. 39. What major advantage did metal coins bring to trade? 40. How does the author describe the way we pay today? Task 2: 41. Imagine if our society returned to a barter system today.
