问题     In ancient times wealth was measured and exchanged in things that could be touched: food, tools, and precious metals and stones. Then the barter system was replaced by coins, which still had real value since they were pieces of rare metal. Coins were followed by fiat money, paper notes that have value only because everyone agrees to accept them.
    Today electronic monetary systems are gradually being introduced that will transform money into even less tangible forms, reducing it to a series of "bits and bytes", or units of computerized information, going between machines at the speed of light. Already, electronic fund transfer allows money to be instantly sent and received by different banks, companies, and countries through computers and telecommunications devices.
Which of the following statements about computerized monetary systems is NOT supported by the passage?
选项 A、They promote international trade.
B、They allow very rapid money transfers.
C、They are still limited to small transactions(交易).
D、They are dependent on good telecommunications systems.
答案C
解析 根据文章第二段可知，现代货币系统是电子的，快捷便利，具有相当的规模，不受地域的限制等，可知C选项不正确，故选C项。
