A lot of countries use their own currency， with n ames such as dollar， pound， franc， ruble， yuan and so on. Since 2002， 18 of the EU members have replaced their national currencies by Euro notes and coins.

If you want to travel outside your native country, you need to change your own country's money for the money of the country you are visiting. Most large banks sell foreign currencies. You can exchange money at a bank or at an office of a tourist agency Wherever you go, exchanging money puts you in touch with international finance, which is concerned with exchange rates between different currencies. Deciding the rate for the international exchange of money is one of the most complex aspects of international banking. Euro is available in all EU member countries.

4._________
A: countries
B: areas
C: regions
D: provinces

答案：A

解析：

前文说了很多不同国家钞票的不同，最后一个转折，肯定是要说相同的地方。in common是固定搭配，意思是相同，共同。故选C项common。
选century最合理，意为20世纪之交。period(A项）, year(B项）或decade (D项）都不合逻辑。故选C项century。
本段第二句提供了解答本题的线索。Frank Vriesekoop的研究与以前的科学家的研究不同，他比较了各国钱币上的病菌数量，在他之前的科学家的研究范围局限于一个国家的纸币。四个选项中只有within表达“在（一个国家）里”的意思。故选B项within。
经过第四题选词的思索过程，本题很自然在different之后用countries，指不同的国家。故选A项countries。
上一句说Vriesekoop比较不同国家纸币携带病菌的数量。本题的句子明确指出他对比的纸币涉及十个国家。四个选项中只有gathered（收集）与上下文的意思相匹配。故选D项gathered。
填词所在的句子与前面的主句存在因果关系。为什么要从食品店和食品摊收集纸币呢？因为这些地方常要用现金支付。所以本题答案是A项because。
上一句中说澳元携带最少的细菌，本句与上一句是相对的，肯定是最多的，选A项most。
本句的句意是我们所说的纸币其实并不是由纸做的。所选的副词来修饰所说，给的四个选项分别是A项“相似地”；B项“简直不”；C项“轻微地”；D项“通常地”。所以选 D项usually合适。
本段说纸币的材料一般不是纸，通常是用棉花织物或高分子聚合物制作的。所以C项materials（材料、原料）是正确的。
前文说了不同国家的纸币携带的细菌数量不同，此处选B项货币最为合适。填入后全句意思就是：含细菌最少的三个国家的纸币……。故选B项c盯rencies。
the other＋名词表示“其他的……”。其他选项从语法上无法与the搭配。此句意为：其他纸币大部分是印在棉织物上的。所以选D项other。
本句前面两句讲述了细菌在什么样的介质上更容易存活。承接下来的应该是对之前的总结。本句四个选项的含义分别为A项“连接”；B项“参与”；C项“表述”；D项 “估计”。C选项比较合适，填入后句意为：前面的表述说明细菌在聚合物表面不易存活。故选 C项expression。
科学家要研究细菌如何在纸币上存活。所以本句选how。 if(A项）, where(B项）, when(D项）都与文意不符。故选C项how。
on different types of bills（在不同的纸币上）说明是比较关系，所以本句要选compare“比较”。故选B项compare。
纸币和细菌的关系肯定是纸币携带细菌。“避免”(A项）、“杀死”(B项）和 “选择”(D项）细菌都不正确。所以选C项carries。

第3题：

翻译Precious metals such as gold and silver have been used as money.

A. 贵重金属里包括黄金、白银和货币。

B. 诸如黄金和白银等这类贵重金属曾经作为货币使用过。

C. 贵重金属里的黄金、白银都被货币所替代。

_________(54)
A:countries
B:areas
C:regions
D:provinces

答案：A

解析：

第一段在列举了各国使用不同货币的情况之后，点明了这些不同的货币上有一个相同的地方，即上面都有细菌，故选C。
词组at the turn of the 20th century表示“在二十世纪之交”，其他各项都不能用于这个结构，故选C。
第三段主要对比讲述了两个范围的钞票细菌的研究，前面是局限在一国的研究，而后者是研究不同国家的货币细菌的情况，故选B。
此空上文讲述了多数针对一国货币细菌的研究，这里则是对比讲述了不同国家的货币细菌研究的情况，故选A。
单词borrow的意思为“借人”;deliver的意思为“递送”;design的意思为“设计”;gather的意思为“收集，集中”。此处指的是把10个国家的钞票收集起来进行集中研究，故选D。
四个选项中只有becaus。接表示原因的从句，其他选项都不适用于本题语境，故选A。
此空上文提到澳元上每平方厘米里只有不超过10个细菌，是最少的，而人民币在相同范围内有大约100个，应是最多的，故选A。
单词similarly的意思为“相似地”;hardly的意思为“几乎不”;slightly的意思为“稍微地”;usually的意思为“通常地”。由下文内容可知，所谓的纸币通常并非用纸制成，故选D。
由下文列举的几种制造钞票的材料可知，此处指的应是不同的国家所用的制作钞票的材料不同，故选C。
本文所探讨的是对各种货币上细菌的研究，故应选B。
指一组中其余的人或事物用the other，其后接名词复数。故选D。
由上文的内容可知，Vriesekoop及其研究小组所收集的几个国家的钞票中，用聚合物制成的钞票和由棉花制成的钞票相比，以聚合物为材料的钞票所含细菌更少，这个联系说明细菌难以在聚合物上存活，故选A。
此空的上一句提到细菌很难在聚合物上存活，因此接下来的研究应该研究细菌是如何在钞票上生活的，故选C。
由下文“on different types of bills”的提示可知，这里是比较不同钞票上的细菌的存活时间，故选B。
不同钞票上所含细菌不同，无论细菌数目和存活时间如何不同，不可否认的一个事实是它们都不可避免地会携带细菌，故选C。
