答案
Money When we think of money today,/ we picture it either as round,/ flat pieces of metal coins; or as printed paper notes./ But there are still parts of the world today where coins and notes are of no use./ They would buy nothing,/ and a traveler could starve if he has none of the local "money" to exchange for food./ Among isolated peoples,/ commerce usually means 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 manufactured goods./ For this kind of simple trading,/ money is not needed./ But there is often something that everyone wants and everybody can use,/ such as salt to flavor food,/ or iron and copper to make into tools and vessels./ These things are still used as money in the remote parts of the world today./
解析
这篇听写的句子结构和单词都相对简单,意思比较好理解。初听starve可能会造成困扰,但是听到后面的“没有当地的钱来换食物”的话,就可明确是“挨饿”。另外,注意文中多处名词复数的使用。
