IV- Read the passage below then answer the questions (p)

About three thousand years ago, there were no shops. If you needed something, you had to make it yourself. For example, if you needed something to wear, you had to kill an animal and get its coat. If you were a good hunter and had a lot of coats, you could exchange them for other things you needed. You could get meet, fruit, or an axe. This way of exchanging is called barter
Later on, people began to use money. They made money from things which would last and not go bad easily. They used stones, shells, and animals’ teeth. After men had discovered metal, they started to use copper, tin, silver, and gold. They made these metals into small bars so that they were easy to store and carry about. Before there were banks, people kept their money in the ground. They thought that it was the safest place to store money
About five hundred years later, people began to make coins. They were easier to carry than metal bars. Early coins were not flat and round but were in lumps. Usually the king or the ruler of a place gave the order to make coins. Therefore, people often put a picture of his called the head. Then they put the date and value of the coin on the other side. This side is called the tail
The first paper money was made by Chinese. In the fifteenth century, the first banks appeared in Italy. Today banks look after our money in a numbers of ways
