7、rocess of exchange. The smith who had not the time to look after land or cattle was glad to take meat or grain from the farmer in exchange for an axe or a plough.

8、her problem arose when those who made things wanted to get stocks of wood or leather, or iron, but had nothing to offer in exchange until their finished goods were ready. Thus the difficulties of exchange led by degrees to the invention of money. In some countries, easily handled things like seeds o
9、r shells were given a certain value and the farmers, instead of paying the smith for a new axe by giving him some meat or grain, gave him so many shells. If the smith had any shells left when he had bought his food, he could get stocks of the raw materials of his trade. In some countries quite large
10、 things such as cows or camels or even big flat stones were used for trade.

20、will have 15 seconds to answer the question and you will hear each dialogue ONLY ONCE. Now look at Question 1./I How much more does the man have to payA8.B7.C15.D1. 12.BText 2/B The greatest recent social changes have been in the lives of women. During the twentieth century there has been a remarkab
21、le shortening of the time of a womans life spent in caring for children. A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, of whom four or five lived till they were five years old. By the time t
22、he youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a womans youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty
23、-five and can be expected to live another thirty-five years and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has the care of children, her work is lightened by modem living conditions. This important change in womens life-pattern has only recently begun to have its full effe
24、ct on womens economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left schools at the first chance, and most of them took a full-time job. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that
25、age, and though women usually marry younger, more married women stay at least until shortly before their first child is born. Very many more afterwards return to full or part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties
26、and satisfactions of family life, and with the both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money, and running the home, according to file abilities and interests of each of them.When she was over fifty, the late nineteenth-century mother _. Awould be healthy enough to take up paid jo
27、bsBwas usually expected to die fairly soonCwould expect to work until she diedDwas unlikely to find a job even if she wanted one 13.BText 1/B In the earliest stages of mans development he had no more need of money than animals.
