Anyone who wants to buy a gun in California will have to wait for 2 weeks. Four people waited for 15 days to buy guns. Then they robbed a store and shot 3 people .

Congress(国会) is now trying to pass a law that will make everyone wait to buy a gun. Many people do not want this law. Others are glad it might happen. California is one of the longest waiting times for someone to buy a gun. A gun dealer said that this waiting time does not seems to do much good．He has　 not seen crime(犯罪) go away because of it.

One good thing that has happened with the waiting time to buy a gun is a smaller number of suicide (自杀) . a lot of suicides are with a gun. In California, there are less suicides by gun than in other places. One reason to make people wait to buy a gun is to make sure the guns are not sold to criminals(罪犯). Last year, this check stopped 2,400 guns from being sold to criminals. This check does not stop anyone else from buying a gun.

Many criminals buy guns on the street and not in a store… some people think that a law like this will not do any good．But other people think that if only one person is stopped from getting a gun, then this law is worth it.

1.A long waiting time to buy in California has led to ___.

A．a good gun control　　 B．less suicides by gun

2.If congress passed the law, ____.

A．no one could kill himself

B．there would be no gun deals

C．one would see more crimes go away

Today anyone will accept money in exchange for goods and services.People use money to buy food, furniture,books,bicycles and hundreds of other things they need or want. When they work, they usually get paid in money.

Most of the money today is made of metal(金属) or paper. But people used to use all kinds of things as money. One of the first kinds of money was shells.

Shells were not the only things used as money. In China , cloth and knives were used. In the Phillipine Islands, rice was used as money for a long time. Elephant tusks,monkey tails and salt were used as money in parts of Africa.

The first metal coins were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in  the centre.People strung(串联)them together and carried them from place to place.

Different countries have used different metals  and designs for their money. The first coins in England were made of tin(锡).Sweden and Russia used copper(铜)to make their money. Later some countries began to make coins of gold and silver.

But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive. Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money. They began to use paper money. The first paper money looked more like note from one person to another than the paper money used today.

Money has had an interesting history from the days of shell money until today.

1.The main use of money is that _________.

2.What did the first Chinese metal coins look like?

3.Who thought of a way to use paper money first?

4.The best title of this passage should be ________.
