You may use banknotes every day. But did you know that there is a lot of science behind the money? 1.
Australia was the first country to use polymer(聚合物)banknotes in 1988. 2.
They can stop water from making them wet. They are also cleaner because bacteria don’t grow easily on them.
Now, the Australians have improved their banknotes again by creating a new 5-dollar note. The new one has a clear window in the middle in which there are pictures of an Australian bird and a building. 3.
Tilt (倾斜)the note a little and you will see the bird flapping its wings as if trying to fly away. Turn the note from side to side and you will notice the building come to life and spin. While these features are impressive and entertaining, that was not the reason why the Australian Government spent ten years perfecting them. Their primary purpose was to make it impossible to fake a banknote.
4. The new $ 5 bill now has a raised bump alongside the two long edges, enabling the blind or those with limited vision, to quickly determine its value.
The Australian government will give the new 10-dollar note the same features in a year’s time. 5.
A. Note makers still have a long way to go.
B. Other notes will have them in the future.
C. The magic of the new features lies in them.
D. They have many advantages over paper notes.
E. The new Australian 5-dollar note is a good example.
F. The new note is also the first touchable Australian banknote.
G. Their material and pattern set them apart from ordinary banknotes.

Making new money is a very unique job and no easy task.It has up to 65 steps When the money in circulation(流通) gets dirty and worn out, it is replaced with new money The old money is taken from banks and brought to places where it is destroyed Usually, the old money is burned.The burned money is replaced by new paper money
If old money is being replaced, then new money is printed in a place called a mint(造币厂).Large sheets 01 paper are printed with many pictures of some currency (流通货币).These large sheets are cut into individual bills.The individual bills are then put together in big stacks and then sent to banks.
Sometimes the mint will make a new bill with a new picture (portraits of statesman and places of interest are favoured) or a new colour. It is not easy for the government to make a new bill. It takes a long time, and there are many steps to go through before a new bill can be sent to banks, first, people m the government decide that a new kind of bill is needed Then, they ask and artist to design the new bill.A different artist cuts the new picture into a soft piece of metal called a die.The dies are made and put onto large printing machines.Then, very special paper is used, which no one but the mint can have.Along with this special paper, the mint also prints currency using special colours.After the dies print the new currency onto the paper, the bills are cut, stacked, and sent off to the banks.
