阅读下面短文,从先入为主后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

  Money is a blessing when it is used correctly.  1   is true of all other good things.They bless if used   2  ;they surse(诅咒)when misused.Many people do not seem to know   3   money is for.They want it above all other things.But they want to spend it chiefly on   4  

  Some boys and girls appear to   5   that money is used to buy good clothes,foods,toys and amusements.Some also seem to think that money is used to buy leisure(空闲).They   6   that the greatest happiness is to   7   without work.But that is not at all what money is for.We should get nearer to the   8   than that.

  Money is our circulating medium(流通手段)in trade.Families need it to buy things they must   9  .In this way society   10  ,and the world of traffic prospers(繁荣).Money means food,clothing,housing,schools,books,wise amuse ment,and the   11   of doing good.

  Of course money is not something to store.Its value   12   its use.A million gold dollars would have been   13   no more than a million stones   14   Robinson Crusoe on his island home.There was nothing to buy,and   15  ,no use for money.And so money that is   16   stored is of no value.It is not used to buy the necessaries of life,  17   help those who are in need.That is not what money is for.

  The Bible(《圣经》)  18   that“the love of money is the   19   of all evil”,That is,money sought only for its own sake(缘故)is the cause of all sorts of evillying,stealing,cheating,robbery,and   20   murder.This is the best reason for avoiding the love of money.
