money Is a nignly iqula Tinanciar asser that is generaly acceprea In excnange for otner assers or goods, is used as a reference In valuing otner assers or gooas, and can be storea as wealtn.

To be liquid means to be easily changeable into other assets or goods. When you buy something with money, you are exchanging money for it So, any of your assets that are easily spendable are money. Social customs and standard practices are central to the liquidity of money. The reason you are willing to hold money is that you know someone else will accept it in trade for something else. Its value is determined by its general acceptability to others.

Money can serve as a medium of exchange. The easiest way to understand money' s medium-of exchange use is to imagine what an economy would be like without money. Direct exchange of commodities without the medium of money- -barter- -can work tolerably well in economies where only a narrow range of goods and services are exchanged, but it becomes extremely cumbersome when there is a wide range of commodities. The use of money as a medium of exchange makes it possible to trade real goods and services without bartering. Instead of carrying around a sack full of diverse goods, all you need to carry around is a bllfol full of money.

Money does not have to have any inherent value to function as a medium of exchange. All that is necessary is that everyone believes that other people will accept it in exchange for their goods. This neat social convention makes the economy function more smoothly.

The social convention depends on there not being too much or too ltte money. If there is too much money compared with the goods and services offered at existing prices, the goods and services will sell out, and money will not buy you anything, or prices will rise. If there is too ltte money compared with the goods and services ofered at the existing prices, there will be a shortage of money and people will have to resort to barter, or prices will fall. Since the central bank controls the supply of money, it also controls the value of money as a medium of exchange.

Money can serve as a unit of account. Money can be used for accounting purposes, to measure the relative exchange values of different goods and services. A bicycle, for example, can be said to be worth RMB 500 and an automatic washing machine RMB 1,500. This indicates that the automatic washing machine is worth three times as much as the bicycle. Money is a useful unit of account only as long as its value relative to the average of all other prices does not change too quickly. For example, in hyperinflation all prices rise so much that our frame. of reference for making relative comparisons is lost. Money can also be used to add up the value of different commodities. In this way, we can measure the entire output of an economy producing a variety of goods and services.

Money can serve as a store of value. Money is a financial asset. So a third use of money is as a store of value. As long as money is serving as a medium of exchange, it automatically also serves as a store of wealth. Money serves as a way to accumulate wealth until it is spent. The restaurant owner can accept your money and hold it for as long as he or she wants before spending it. (But had you paid him or her in fish, he or she would be wise not to hold it for more than a few hours,) A person making RMB 5,000 per month who wants to buy a RMB 3,00-computer could save RMB 500 per month for each of the next months.

To be a satisfactory store of purchasing power, however, the value of money should be reasonably stable over time. If RMB 180 can buy two pairs of jeans in 2015, but only one pair in 2016, people are not going to be too confident in the RMB as a store of value. Unfortunately, the value of stored money is directly dependent on the health of the economy. If, due to rapid inflation, all prices double in one year, then the purchasing power of the money would fall by half. Conversely, savings will buy more when prices fall as a result of recessions.

41. Money is a highly liquid financial asset because of the following reasons except that.

A. it has the inherent value to function as a medium of exchange

B. itis generally accepted in exchange for other assets or goods

C. it can be used as a reference in valuing other assets or goods

D.it can be stored as wealth

B. it serves as a unit of account

C.itcan be used as a store of wealth

D. it has its own weight

A. quick

C. eficient

D. inconvenient

Charles Darwin (1809-1882) was an English naturalist and biologist. As a boy, Darwin cllected anything that caught his interest insects, coins and interesting stones. Darwin was not very clever, but he was good at doing the things that interested him.

His father was a doctor, so Darwin was sent to Edinburgh to study medicine, and was planned to follow a medical career. But Charles found the lectures were very boring. Then his father sent him to Cambridge University to study to be a priest. While at Cambridge, Darwin' s interest in zoology and geography grew. Later he got a letter from Robert FitzRoy who was planning to make a voyage around the world on a ship, the Beagle. He wanted a naturalist to join the ship, and Darwin was recommendeD.That voyage was the start of Darwin' s great life.

As the Beagle sailed around the world, Darwin began to wonder how life had developed on earth. He began to observe everything. After he went back home, he set to work, getting his collections in order.

His first great work The Zoology of the Beagle was well received, but he was slow to make public his ideas on the origins of life. He was certainly very worried about disagreeing with the accepted views of the Church.

Hapily, the naturalists at Cambridge persuaded Darwin that he must make his ideas publiC.So Darwin and Wallace, another naturalist who had the same opinions as Darwin, produced a paper together.

A year later Darwin's great book On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection appeareD.It ttracted a storm. People thought that Darwin was saying they were descended from monkeys. What a shameful idea!

Although most scientists agreed that Darwin was right, the Church was still so strong that Darwin never received any honors for his work.

Afterwards, he published another great work, The Descent of Man. His health grew worse, but he still workeD."When I have to give up observation, I shall die," he saiD.He was still working on 17 April, 1882. He was dead two days later.

Darwin' s theory of evolution is that all life is related and has originated from the common ancestor. Birds and bananas, fish and flowers - all is relateD.Darwin' s general theory presumes the development of life from non-life and stresses a purely naturalistic "descent with modification" . That is, complex creatures evolve from simple ancestors naturally over time. In a nutshell, as random genetic mutations occur within an organism' s genetic code, the beneficial changes are passed on to the next generation. Over time, these changes accumulate and the result is an entirely different organism.

Ancient Greek philosophers such as Anaximander postulated the development of life from non-life and the evolutionary descent of man from animals. Charles Darwin simply brought something new to the old philosophy -a plausible mechanism clled "natural election. Suppose a member developed a functional advantage (it grew wings and learmned to fly), its ofpring would inherit that advantage and pass it on to their offspring. The inferior members of the same species would gradually die out, leaving only the superior members of the species.

Natural selection is the reservation of a functional advantage that enables a species to compete better in the world.

Charles Darwin' s theory has made an enormous impact on the worlD.It has aroused controversy, while at the same time creating a new form. of scientific thought. The greatest controversy involves Darwinism' s clashing views with creationism. Creationism is the broad range of beliet involving God' s intervention, which also explains the origin of the universe, life, and different kinds of plants and animals on earth.

Darwin' s theory also has great influence on modern science. His theory of evolution by natural selection has provided us with a possible answer to where we came from. It gives new meanings to professions such as anthropology and genetics.

46. Which of the following is NOT true about young Darwin?

A.His father wanted him to work at church.

B.He was sent to Cambridge to study zoology.

C.He liked to cllect interesting things.

D.Darwin was not very clever when he was young.

47. Darwin' s father sent him to Edinburgh to.

A.make him like natural history

B.have him give up his cllctin

C.let him change his hobbies

48. According to the passage, Charles Darwin' s whole life was changed by_

A.his study at Cambridge University

B.his cllection of coins

C.the ntulits at Cambridge

D.the voyage of the Beagle

49.What happened when Darwin published his first great work The Zoology of the Beagle?

A.He wrote a research paper on the origin of lite and published at once.

B.He received criticism from the naturalists at Cambridge.

C.He hesitated and did not show his opinions to the public immediately.

D The naturalists at Cambridge persuaded him to comprise with the church.

50. Why did Darwin never receive an honor?
