Text 10:
Good morning, everybody. My topic for today is “Early Money”. I’m going to tell something about money used in the early days. To be honest, we know little about how early people came to use money, but we do know some of the things which have been used as money. In early times in some European countries, salt was difficult to get. It was used as money. In some parts of Asia, tea was used for money. The American Indians used nuts and other things. Perhaps the most common money of all was an animal of some kind. In some places today, cows are still used as a kind of money. So you see, things highly valued by everybody may serve as money.
The Chinese were the first people to use coins as money. Oh, sorry, you don’t know the word? Well, it is spelled C-O-I-N. Here are some coins of the past. You can come over and have a look.
