6、 请根据短文内容，回答题。
Today anyone will accept money in exchange for goods and services. People use money to buy food, furniture, books, bicycles and hundreds of others they need or want. When they work, they usually get paid in money.
Most of the money today is made of metal or paper. But people used to use all kinds of things as money. One of the first kinds of money was shells.
Shells were not the only things used as money. In China, cloth and knives were used. In the Philippine Islands, rice was used as money. In some parts of Africa, cattle were one of the earliest kinds of money. Other animals were used as money, too.
The first metal coins were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in the centre. People strung them together and carried them from place to place.
Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money. The first coins in England were made of tin. Sweden and Russia used copper to make their money. Later, other countries began to make coins of gold and silver.
But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive. Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money. They began to use paper money. The first paper money looked more like a note from one person to another than paper money used today.
Money has had an interesting history from the days of shell money until today.
Which of the following can be cited as an example of the use of money in exchange for services?
A．To sell a bicycle for $ 20.
B．To get some money for old books at a garage sale.
C．To buy things you need or want.
D．To get paid for your work.

9、根据下面材料，回答题：
Concerning money or anything else, conflicts between husband and wife usually reflect a powerstruggle. Conflicts between parent and child often center around the same issue. As children enter ad-olescence, they begin to demand greater freedom to go where they please, do what they please, andmake decisions without parental interference. Many American parents do not know how to deal withtheir teenagers and seek advice from books, lectures, and parent-training courses. Parents want to maintain a friendly relationship with their teenagers and also want to guide them so that their behaviorwill be whatever the parents consider proper and constructive.
But in a society of rapidly changing social and moral values, parents and children often disagree about what is important and what is right.
Arguments may concern such unimportant matters as styles of dress or hairdos. But quarrels mayalso concern school work, after school jobs, decisions, use of the family car, dating, and sex behav-ior. Some famihes have serious problems with teenagers who drop out of school, run away from home,or use illegal drugs. Because so much publicity is given to the problem teenager, one gets the impres-sion that all teenagers are troublemakers. Actually, relatively few adolescents do anything wrong, andnearly all grow up into "solid citizens" who fulfill most of their parents' expectations. In fact, recentstudies show that the "generation gap" is narrowing. The vast majority of teenagers share most of theirparents' values and ideas. Many parents feel that they get along with their adolescents quite well.
According to the writer, conflicts between husband and wife usually reflect__________.
A．feeling of hatred
B．power struggle
C．that they don't care for each other
D．that they may appeal to divorce
