As we all know, most of the material things in our daily life have to be bought with money．But money is not all powerful ．Money cannot buy many things such as time and true love．
There are 24 hours in a day．Sometimes when we are very happy, we wish that the period of happiness would last longer．But whatever we do and however much money we are ready to pay, we cannot make a day last longer than 24 hours ．On the other hand, when we are unhappy, money cannot make the unhappy time pass away more quickly．
True love is another thing which money cannot buy．Suppose we have someone who really loves us very much．Once he dies, he can give us no more love．Can our money raise him from death and make him love us as before?
Here we can see very clearly that money cannot buy us love．Money can buy us delicious food, beautiful clothes, but never time and love．So money, after all, is not all powerful．

The most important diamonds are those we never see── the diamonds used in industry．Their value lies in their hardness, not their beauty, and in the thousands of jobs they do．
Industrial diamonds make the needles for phonographs(唱机)．Diamonds cut through solid rock in search of oil．Doctors use diamonds too──often as a powder glued(粘) to paper or a wheel．Other diamond wheels cut and polish(磨光) stones and cut metal parts for all kinds of engines．They are also used to make wheels for grinding(磨碎) and polishing metals．
Most marvelous of all are the diamond dies(模具)．These are flat diamonds through which small holes have been drilled(钻)．When metal is pulled through the small hole in the diamond, it comes out as thin wire．
Cars, airplanes, nails, radios, refrigerators(电冰箱), and most electrical equipment could not be made without using industrial diamonds．
(1) The most important diamonds are those used ______．

Aristotle pointed out the four main qualities(特性) of money some 2,000 years ago. It must be lasting and easy to recognize, to divide, and to carry about. In other words it must be, “durable, distinct, divisible and portable”. When we think of money today, we picture it either as round, flat pieces of metal which we call coins or as printed paper notes. But there are still parts of the world today where coins and notes are of no use. They will buy nothing, and a traveler might go hungry if he had none of the particular local(当地) “money” to exchange for food.
Among separate peoples, who are not often reached by traders from outside, trading usually means barter. There is a direct exchange of goods. Perhaps it is fish for vegetables, meat for grain, or various kinds of food in exchange for pots, baskets, or other goods. For this kind of simple trading, money is not needed, but there is often something that everyone wants and everyone can use, such as salt, shells(贝壳), or iron. These things—salt, shells or metals are still used as money in out-of-the-way parts of the world today.
(1)Aristotle said money should be ______
[ ]
A．made of metal
B．durable, distinct, divisible and portable
C．2,000 years old
D．made of high-quality materials
(2)Nowadays we think of money as _____.
[ ]
A．made of either metal or paper
B．piece of metal
C．printed notepaper
D．useful for hungry travelers
(3)In some parts of the world a traveler might starve ______.
[ ]
A．even if his money was of the local kind
B．even if he had no coins or notes
C．if he did not know the local rate of exchange
D．even if he had plenty of coins and notes.
(4)Barter usually takes the place of money transactions(交易) where
[ ]
A．there is only salt
B．the people’s trading needs are fairly simple
C．metal tools are used
D．money is unknown
(5)Which of the following tells the main idea of the passage?
[ ]
A．Aristotle pointed out the chief qualities of money 2,000 years ago.
B．The important qualities of money are defined(下定义) one after another.
C．Although money was defined 2,000 years ago, there are still places where barter is sometimes used.
D．It will be of great help if people use salt as money.
