Money (part 1)

Before money, people could not buy and sell. There was trade; but it had to be two-way trade: people exchanged goods. For example, they exchanged food for clothes. With money, buying and selling became two things that could happen at different times and 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. Some of the earlier coins were used in Turkey, and they were made of gold and silver. But this caused problems. People used to take very small bits of metal from each coin. Each coin was then a bit smaller, so people wanted more coins for their goods, and prices went up.
Metal coins were used by the Greeks thousands of years ago. The Greek drachma was made of silver. For hundreds of years, it was the most common kind of money for trade in Europe and parts of Asia. The Greeks even put drachma into the mouths of dead people: they believed the money would pay for their journey to the next world.
The Romans also used silver and gold coins. But the emperor Nero decided to put less gold and silver into the coins in order to make money for himself. After that, nobody wanted to use the coins, and this had a very bad effect on the Roman economy. The world had learned a lesson: money only works if people believe in its value.
Coins can be heavy. (For example, the people of Yap, an island in the Pacific, use stone coins; the biggest were about four meters across!) In the late eighteenth and early nineteenth 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”: theses were just pieces of paper with a promise in writing to pay back the gold and silver coins. Soon, people started to use the notes themselves as money. Later, governments began to control money. They made their own notes for people to use.

Money (part 2)
In 1950, the first credit card was made. It was the Diners Club card, and it could only be used in 200 restaurants in New York. Today, almost all shops, hotels and restaurants in the world take credit cards, so people do not have to carry a lot of coins and notes with them when they travel.
As with anything there are advantages and disadvantages to using credit cards. Advantages:
Immediate Access: Need a new set of tires? Credit can help with an expensive, unexpected emergency and give you the flexibility to pay it over time.
Security: Lose cash, and it's gone. Lose a credit card, and it can be cancelled. Also, if you report a lost or stolen card promptly, you're protected against its unauthorized use.
Record Keeping: Your credit card statement is an itemized list of your monthly expenditures, which can be helpful when it comes to budgeting.
Convenience: Credit cards are accepted at more places than checks, and they're generally faster to use.
Rewards: Using a credit card with a rewards program may earn you benefits like free travel.
Disadvantages:
The main disadvantage to credit card usage is its cost to you in interest and fees. Wise use of credit means understanding those costs and acting accordingly. Keep track of your spending to ensure that you can repay your credit card bill in full when it comes due each month.

Today, the daily newspapers of Britain can be divided very easily into two groups. The first group consists of the “quality” newspapers, which provide their readers with important political and other news of the day at home and abroad. These papers include The Times and The Daily Telegraph of London, The Guardian of Manchester, and a lot of other newspapers published outside London. Most of these newspapers have a circulation of only between 100,000 and 300,000, and The Daily Telegraph has a circulation of about a million. The great majority of these newspapers are strongly conservative in their politics, but they report fairly fully on political events, so that an intelligent reader can form some idea of what is going on in the world.
The second group of newspapers consists of the popular press. They do not report important world events, if a political story is sensational enough they will report it, but most of their space is devoted to what only can be described as gossip and personalities. Film stars' babies, murder cases, and divorces often take most of place in their columns. These “popular” papers include the Daily Express and the Daily Mirror both with circulation of over four million daily and the Daily Mail, the Daily Sketch with circulation of between one million and two million. For every Englishman who reads one of the “serious” newspapers there are ten others who read the “popular” newspapers.
Big business advertisers have an enormous effect on the major part of the British daily press. It happens because it costs much more to print and distribute each copy of a paper than the reader pays for his copy. Since the publishers of the popular newspapers are capitalists, who are in the business for the profits which they can make, they do not want to work at a loss, so they sell whole pages, half pages, and smaller space in their newspapers to the advertisers for them to make propaganda for their goods. The income from such advertisements is enormous: a full page advertisement in the Daily Express costs the advertiser Ј 10,000. The advertiser is only ready to pay this very large sum of money because he knows that his advertisement will be read by at least four million people.

The planet Earth is only a tiny part of the universe, but it's the only place where human beings can live.
Today, our planet is in serious danger. Acid rains, global warming,
air and water pollution, overpopulation are the problems that threaten
human life on Earth.
Who is to blame for the disaster? The answer is simple: all of us.
Our forests are disappearing because they are cut down or burnt. If this
trend continues, one day we won't have enough oxygen to breathe.
The seas are in danger. They are filled with poison: industrial and
nuclear waste, chemical fertilisers and pesticides. The Mediterranean is
already nearly dead; the North Sea is following. The Aral Sea is on the
brink of extinction. If nothing is done about it, one day nothing will
be able to live in the seas.
Every ten minutes one kind of animal, plant or insect dies out for
ever. If nothing is done about it, one million species that are alive
today may soon become extinct.
Air pollution is another serious problem. In Cairo just breathing the
air is dangerous — equivalent to smoking two packs of cigarettes a day.
The same holds true for many Russian cities. Factories emit tons of
harmful chemicals. These emissions have disastrous consequences for our
planet. They are the main reason for the greenhouse effect and acid
rains. An even greater threat are nuclear power stations. We all know
how tragic the consequences of the Chernobyl disaster are.
Fortunately, it's not too late to solve these problems. We have the
time, the money and even the technology to make our planet a better,
cleaner and safer place. We can plant trees and create parks for
endangered species. We can recycle litter. We can support green parties
and put pressure on those in power. Together we can save the planet and
all of us with it.
Of course, people can’t stay indifferent to these
problems. There are a lot of special organizations, which try to save our
nature. The most known are: The Royal Society for the prevention of cruelty to
animals (The RSPCA), the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) and Greenpeace. The RSPCA
tries to protect animals from bad use. It operates big nation campaigns aimed
at lost pets, circus animals. The WWF rescued several species of animals,
mammals as well as birds. These organization also helped to create more than
250 National parks. Greenpeace began its work 20 years ago from saving whales.
And now Greenpeace is a world-famous organization, which saves plants, animals
and people. These organization, want to rescue animals, to help them to survive
and to save jungle rain forests, which are in danger of destruction. And they
also help animals ‘cause many of them have already gone as they have nowhere to
live. Their homes, the trees, have disappeared. We must save wild animals. And
we must find the right way to save land, people and animals. We must lake care
of nature, because we are part of it.
