1、Passage 19Throughout her working life, a ship — like a motorcar — must be serviced regularly if she
is to remain efficient. After a period at sea she must be overall checked and any necessary repairs
must be made. There are also instances when a ship must be converted from being one kind of
carrier to another. Most of today‘s oil, for example, is carried by huge super-tankers. The smaller
tankers, many of which are still in good condition, can be converted into bulk carriers（散货船）
for the transport of sugar, coal or ore.
Conversion or repair work is carried out in a dry dock, a huge hole cut into the ground and
lined with concrete. At one end are large gates separating the dock from the river or sea. When
these gates are opened, water pours into the dock and fills it. A ship can then enter the dock, where
it is carefully fastened in an upright position.When the ship is positioned inside the dock, the gates are closed and the water is pumped out.
The vessel slowly settles on to wooden blocks. Wooden supporters are put in position between the
ship and the sides of the dock to prevent her from rolling over. Great care is taken to make sure
that the ship rests evenly on the keel（龙骨）blocks to prevent damage being done.
As soon as the ship is firmly positioned, repair or conversion work can begin on her body or
superstructure.

1、Passage 5Today 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 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 parts of
Africa, cattle were one of the earliest 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
center. 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.
