A. Read the text and answer the questions below?
The History of Money
Imagine you are a fisherman. You catch fish for your food
supply, but you are tired of eating it every day. Instead of
fish, you want to eat some bread. You are lucky because a
baker lives next door, so you decide to trade the baker
some fish for bread. This is an example of barter, the direct
exchange of one good for another.
However, barter is difficult when you try to obtain a good
for a person who doesn’t want what you have. For example,
how do you get shoes if the shoemaker doesn’t like fish?
Early societies faced this problem. The solution was money.
All the people accepted to use money in trade. But money
didn’t always come in the form of bills and coins. Over the years, people have used a wide variety of
items for money such seashells, apices, tea, fish hooks, leather, gold, cattle and even tobacco. Now, it’s
a lot easier to carry rectangles of paper or pieces of metal in your wallet.
