Every day we use money to buy what we want. But have you ever really noticed the bill (钞票) in your hand? There are different pictures on both sides of banknotes (纸币) and interesting stories behind them.
Most banknotes have famous people on the front, such as a country’s leader or a great scientist, while on the back of the paper note there are usually some well-known scenes or national buildings.
The latest editions of Chinese banknotes use the picture of Mao Zedong, founding father of the People’s Republic of China, on the front of all yuan bills. However, the backs of the bills are different. The Great Hall of the People, on the 100-yuan note, is a landmark (地标) in Beijing. Important meetings are always held there. The Lijiang River in Guilin, on the 20-yuan note, is one of the most beautiful scenes in the world.
The US 1-dollar bill has the first president, George Washington, on the front side. A 13-level pyramid is on the back. Benjamin Franklin, a great scientist and politician (政治家) from the US, appears on the front of the 100-dollar bill. You can see the White House, where the presidents live, on the back of the 20-dollar bill.
1. According to Paragraph 2, which one probably appears on the back of the banknotes?
A. Abraham Lincoln. B. Elizabeth II.
C. Taishan Mountain. D. Titanic.
2.The Lijiang River of Guilin is __________.
A. on the back of 20-yuan note B. on the front of 20-yuan note
C. on the front of 100-yuan note D. on the back of 100-yuan note
3. On the front of the 100-dollar bill, we can see __________.

Americans have used colors to create many expressions they use every day.
We say you’re ‘in the pink’ when we are in good health. It is easy to understand how this expression was born. When my face has a nice fresh, pink color, it is a sign my health is good.
The color green is natural for trees, it is an unnatural color for humans. When someone doesn’t feel well, someone who is sick, for example, we say he ‘looks green’. When someone is angry because he doesn’t have what someone else has, we say he is ‘green with envy’.
Some people are ‘green with envy’ because someone else has more dollars, or ‘green backs’. Dollars are called ‘greenbacks’ because that’s the color of the backside of the money.
Blue is a cool color. The traditional blue music of American blacks is the opposite of red hot music. It is slow, sad and soulful ( 深情的 ). To be blue, of course, is to be sad.
The color black is often used in expressions. People describe a day in which everything grows wrong as a ‘black day’. A ‘black sheep’ is the member of a family or group who always seems to be in trouble. If someone meets a ‘black cat’, something unlucky might happen to him. Not all the ‘black’ expressions have bad meaning. A company ‘in the red’ is losing money. If someone tells you to put someone ‘in black and white’, they want you to write it down.
1. After reading the passage, we can infer ( 推断 ) if someone ‘looks grey’, he _______.
A. looks well B. may need a doctor
C. is healthy D. is ‘in the pink’
2.I was really _________ when I saw his nice new car.
A. red B. blue C. green D. black
3. Which of the following is true?
A. A company surely likes to be ‘in the red’.
B. All the color expressions in the passage come from Britain English.
C. Not all the ‘black’ expressions have bad meanings.
D. Dollars are called ‘greenbacks’ because they have trees on the backside.

Money is what people use to buy things they need or want. A long time ago, people didn’t use money. So how did they get the things they wanted? Well, there is a long and interesting story about this.
At first, they would exchange something they had for what they needed. For example, if the shoemaker needed some bread, he would give the baker shoes and the baker would give him bread. This was called “bartering”(易货). Bartering worked fine for a while. But after the baker had too many shoes, the shoemaker still needed more bread. What could they do? The solution to this problem was money.
There were many earlier forms of money, such as cattle(牛), salt, grain and shells(贝壳). But it was not easy to move them to far-away places or store them. So coins began to take the place of things.
Coins had a fixed(固定的) value and could be stored. It became possible for people to trade in a standardized(标准的) way. Different coins are worth different amounts. Metal money was used in China as early as 1000 BC.
About three hundred years ago, paper money came into wider use. Paper money is cheaper to make than coins. It is also easier to carry around. Now people use paper money and coins in most countries.
Cash(现金) has been the most popular form of money. But these days, it seems that things have changed. Cashless payment has come into our lives and changed our world. China was the first country in the world to use paper money. Now, centuries later, it may become the first cashless society soon. Cashless payment apps such as Alipay(支付宝) and WeChat Pay are becoming more common in China. The buyer just scans the QR code (扫描二维码) of the seller, or the other way around. No real money is needed at all. Is tomorrow already there?
1.The underlined word “It” in Para 5 refers to ______.
A.Bartering B.coins C.paper money D.cashless payment
2.We can see the passage in ______.
A.a story book
B.an ad. of a health center

3.Nowadays ______ becoming more common in China.
A.Bartering B.coins C.paper money D.Alipay and WeChat Pay
4.The best title of the passage should be ______.
A.The First Country Use Paper Money.
B.Where is Our Money
