Salt, shells or metals are still used as money in out-the-way parts of the world today.
Salt may seem rather a strange【C1】______to use as money, 【C2】______in countries where the food of the people is mainly vegetable, it is often an【C3】______necessity. Cakes of salt, stamped to show their【C4】______, were used as money in some countries until recent【C5】______, and cakes of salt【C6】______buy goods in Borneo and parts of Africa.
Sea shells【C7】______as money at some time【C8】______another over the greater part of the Old World. These were【C9】______mainly from the beaches of the Maldives Islands in the Indian Ocean, and were traded to India and China. In Africa, shells were traded right across the【C10】______from East to West.
Metal, valued by weight, 【C11】______coins in many parts of the world. Iron, in lumps, bars or rings, is still used in many countries【C12】______paper money. It can either be exchanged【C13】______goods, or made into tools, weapons, or ornaments. The early money of China, apart from shells, was of bronze, 【C14】______in flat, round pieces with a hole in the middle, called "cash". The【C15】______of these are between three thousand and four thousand years old—older than the earlist coins of the eastern Mediterranean.

选项
A、earlier
B、earliest
C、better
D、best
答案
B
解析
本题考查上下文语义。根据下文说的三四千年之久(old),表明这里应填表示时间的词;前面的定冠词表明这里应该用最高级。故选B项earliest“最早的”。此外,破折号后出现的earliest一词进一步印证了答案。其余三项不符合文意,故排除。
