People use money to buy food, books and hundreds of other things they need. When they work, they usually get paid in money. Most of the money used today is made of metal or paper. But in the time long ago, people used to use all kinds of things as money. One of the first kinds of money was shells. In China, cloth and knives were used as money. Elephant tusks(牙), monkey tail and salt were used in some parts of the world. Rice was also a kind of money used by the people in some islands. Some animals were used as money, too. The first copper coins were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in the center. Different countries have used different metals for their money. Later, some countries began to make coins of gold and silver(银). But gold and silver were heavy to carry when people needed a lot of coins to buy something expensive. The Chinese were the first to use paper money. The first paper money looked more like a note from one person to another than the paper money used today.

Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next to ours was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there and whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing (缝纫) and reading. After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, “Why doesn’t that woman clean her window? It really looks terrible.” One bright morning I decided to clean my apartment, including cleaning the window. Late in the afternoon I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly seen. Her window was clean! Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window. That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings (缺点) ? From then on, whenever I want to judge (判断) someone, I ask myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window? ” Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I can see others’ world more clearly. 小题1: The writer couldn’t see anything clearly through the window because ________ .A.the woman’s window was dirty | B.the writer’s window was dirty | C.the woman lived far away | D.the writer was near-sighted | 小题2: After the writer finished the cleaning, he was surprised to find that ________ .A.the woman was sitting by her window | B.the woman’s window was still terrible | C.the woman was cleaning her window | D.the woman’s window was clean | 小题3: The underlined part “it dawned on me ” probably means “________ ”.A.I began to understand it | B.it cheered me up | C.I could see myself through the window | D.it began to get light | 小题4: From the passage we know that ________ .A.both the woman and the writer lived in a small town | B.the writer often cleaned his window | C.both the woman and the writer worked as cleaners | D.the writer never met the woman | 小题5:From the passage we can learn that ________ .A.one shouldn’t criticize others very often | B.one should often keep his windows clean | C.one should judge himself before he judges others | D.one should look at others through his dirty window |

How do you get across a river? A bridge is the best way. In some places, there are no bridges. People use the ferry(渡船). A ferry is a boat that takes people and cars across the river. Both ends of a ferry look the same. The ferry never has to turn around. It docks(靠岸)at one side of the river. People and cars get on. At the other side, the ferry docks again. The people and cars get off. Other cars and people get on. And then the ferry goes back across the river. In many places, bridges are now taking the place of ferries. In 1964, the longest bridge in the world was built in New York over Now York Bay(湾). It is called the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge. This bridge has two roads, one over the other. Each road is wide enough for six lanes(行道)of traffic. 小题1: ______ is the best way for people to go across the river.A.The bridge | B.The car | C.The ferry | D.The bus | 小题2: We can infer that ______ according to the passage.A.the shortest bridge in the world was built in New York | B.it may be faster to cross rivers on bridges than on ferries | C.there is a bridge over every river in the United States | D.we don’t need ferries any more | 小题3: The main idea of the passage is that _____.A.the bridge is taking the place of the ferry | B.the ferry is better than the long bridge | C.the bridge in New York has a very long name | D.there is no ferry in the world | 小题4:_______ can cross rivers by ferry.A.Only people | B.Both cars and people | C.Only cars | D.Neither people nor cars |
