Money is something we all take for granted in our lives. Some of us may wish we had more of it but we all recognize it when we see it, whether in the form of coins, notes or cheques. It is difficult to imagine how people managed without money. In the earliest periods of human history, people used to exchange goods directly. They would exchange things they had plenty for things that they were in need of. For example, they might offer food for tools. This method of exchange, which is known as “barter”, has many disadvantages. Certain goods may be difficult to carry; they may not last long, or may be impossible to divide into smaller units. It can also be difficult to know the worth of something compared with other goods.
According to historians, the first money, in the sense we understand it today, consisted of gold coins produced about 2,500 years ago. Gold, being very acceptable to everyone, was still being used at the beginning of this century, although it has now been replaced by paper money and coins made of ordinary metals.
What does the phrase “take for granted” in the first sentence most nearly mean?
Think about carefully
Consider unimportant
Accept as normal without thinking
Be proud of

Your body needs energy, protein, minerals, vitamins and fiber. In order to get all of these it is important to have a varied and balanced diet and to eat the right amount. Your body ‘burns’ food to get energy: the amount of energy provided by food is measured in units called calories.
How many calories do you need? This depends on your weight and on what you do. When you are asleep, your body uses nearly one calorie an hour for every kilogram of weight. So a person who weighs seventy kilos uses about 560 calories while sleeping for eight hours; in other words, he needs about 1,680 calories just to stay alive for 24 hours, even without doing anything.
More calories are needed for different activities – from 100 calories an hour for reading or watching TV, to 350 calories an hour for playing football. To calculate the number of calories needed per day for an average person, first find out that person’s ideal weight. (Your ideal weight is what you should weigh). It depends on your height and your build, and it may be very different from your present weight!)
Then multiply the correct weight (in kilograms) by 40 for a woman or 46 for a man. A 57-kilo woman may need about 2,300 calories a day – more if she does heavy physical work or a lot of sport, less if she is very inactive.
If you eat more than you need, the extra calories turn into fat; if you eat less than you need, the body burns fat to get energy and you lose weight. One way of losing weight is by dieting – eating less. Another way is to go on eating the same amount, but to increase your body’s need for energy by taking more exercise.
But be careful. It is important to slim – or to start an exercise programme – gradually. Don’t try to lose a lot of weight fast. It doesn’t usually work and it can be dangerous.
According to the passage, which of the following does the human body need?
Only energy and vitamins
Energy, protein, minerals, vitamins and fiber
Protein, minerals and water
Calories and fat only
How many calories does a person who weighs seventy kilos need just to stay alive for 24 hours?
About 560 calories
About 1,120 calories
About 1,680 calories
About 2,300 calories
According to the passage, which activity requires the MOST calories per hour?
Reading
Watching TV
Sleeping
Playing football
To calculate the number of calories needed per day for an average person, what should be found FIRST?
The person’s present weight
The person’s height
The person’s ideal weight
The person’s daily activities
Why does the writer warn us not to lose a lot of weight fast?
Because it is expensive
Because it makes people tired
Because it usually does not work and can be dangerous
Because it requires too much exercise
