Money, Money, Money.

Money is a very important part of modern life. Before people knew money, people
exchanged goods. They called this barter. People were not happy with this barter system, so
they started to use money.

First, people used shells, rice, or animal teeth for money. People chose them because
they were easy to carry. Then people used gold and silver. They were good for money because
they were not easy to find and they lasted a long time.

In 600 BC people started to use coins. Coins were the main form of currency until
1660. In this year, people began to print paper banknotes. The first banknotes appeared in
Sweden.

In 1940s people started to use credit cards. Credit Cards make people live easy. They

Essay

41. I stopped at a flower shop to order some flowers to be wired to my mother who lived two
hundred miles away. As I got out of my car I noticed a young girl sitting on the curb
sobbing. I asked her what was wrong and she replied, "I wanted to buy a red rose for my
mother. But I only have seventy-five cents, and a rose costs two dollars." I smiled and said,
"Come on in with me. I'll buy you a rose." I bought the little girl her rose and ordered my
own mother's flowers. As we were leaving I offered the girl a ride home. She said, "Yes,
please! You can take me to my mother." She directed me to a cemetery, where she placed
the rose on a freshly dug grave. I returned to the flower shop, canceled the wire order,
picked up a bouquet and drove the two hundred miles to my mother's house.
Why was the girl sobbing?
