I Read the text and do two tasks below it

Money

Before money, people could not buy or sell. They had to exchange goods. With money, buying and selling could happen at different times with different people. A person could sell food to somebody on one day and get money for it; a week later, he or she could use the money to buy clothes from a third person.

There have been metal coins for thousands of years. But this caused problems. People took very small bits of metal from each coin. Thousands years ago the Greeks used coins made of silver. Their money drachma was the most common kind of money for trade in Europe and parts of Asia. The Romans also used silver and gold coins.

In the late 18^th and early 19^th centuries people did not want to carry large bags of coins with them, so they left the coins with traders. The traders gave them ‘notes’ which were just pieces of paper with a promise to pay back the gold and silver coins.

In 1950, the first credit card was made. Today, most shops, hotels and restaurants in the world take credit cards and people do not have to carry a lot of coins and notes with them when they travel.

1 Are the statements below true (T) or false (F)?

a Money could make a selling/buying process longer.

b With money fewer people could buy and sell.

c Ancient people did not use silver and gold for money production.

d The traders’ business was to produce special written documents.

e Having a credit card is quite risky and dangerous.
