分析 文章大意:
文章主要讲述的是货币.提到货币,人们首先想到的就是当下依然在流通的纸币和硬币,但是在太平洋的一个小岛(雅浦岛)上,人们使用一种特殊的货币,那就是雅浦石头.但是随着时代的进步,在购物的时候他们已经开始使用纸币,但其他时候还是使用石头进行交易.
解答 84.A,细节理解题,文中提到"On the island of Yap,people use the heaviest money in the world-Yap stones"雅浦岛现在用着世界上最重的钱,那就是雅浦石头,由此确定选择A.
85.B,词义猜测题,文中提到"The Yap men have to go to the islands four hundred miles away to fetch them"岛上的男人会到离岛四百公里远的地方取回石头,由此推测石头并不是岛上的东西,由此推测词义是来源于…由此确定选择B.
86.D,细节理解题,文中提到"Today the people on the island use paper money for everyday shopping"在每天的购物过程中,雅浦岛上的居民使用纸币,由此确定选择D.
87.C,主旨大意题,文中首段提到的是金币,而后从第二段开始讲述的是雅浦岛上人们使用的货币,以前是雅浦石头,现在购物时也用纸币,但其他事情上使用的还是雅浦石头,由此可以推测此篇文章主要讲述的是雅浦岛上居民使用的货币,由此确定选择C.
