The first peopleto live on the Earth did not use money. Instead, they bartered─ giving something they hadfor something they needed. This still happens in many places today. The first things to be usedas money were a type of sea-shell, called cowrie shells. They were used by the Chinesefrom about 1200 BC. The Chinese then began to make small objects that looked likecowrie shells. These were the first coins made out of metal and with a hole in them so thatthe coins could be put together to make a chain. Over the years, money has been madeof different things─ for example, silver, leather, and paper. The Chinese were the first touse paper money from about 800 AD. But, would you believe that noses have been usedinstead of money? Many hundreds of years ago, people from Denmark used to cut the nosesoff people who did not pay their taxes.Since many think that the more money they have the happier they will be, they will makeall the effort to earn money. Some even steal or commit crimes to become rich. Of course,we know this is wrong. Many wealthy people have found that, in spite of having all thepossessions, they are not really happy. Some wealthy people live alone in gorgeous mansionsyet die lonely with no family or friends around them. They have spent their lives trying to berich, but in fact they are poor. It is a pity that they do not know the true meaning ofhappiness, without getting and spending money.公告試題僅供參考共同科目 英文共 8 頁 第 6 頁
