Why did people start using money? At first people bartered, which means they exchanged things they had for things they needed. Throughout their history people have used different things as money: knives and rice, cattle, tobacco, whales' teeth and shells. The first government to make coins that looked alike and use them as money was probably the city of Lydia in Ancient Greece. Now people carry plastic credit cards in their wallets instead o cash, which makes travellng even safer and more convenient. With your credit card you can take money from the cash-machine any time you need it. When you go to a foreign country, one of the first things you may see is what money looks like.Many countries in Europe now have the same currency; all their coins and paper money are euros.Great Britain, however, is still using pounds. People in France and Italy miss their currencies — francs and lire. But they agree that now money travels easily from one country to another. This makes it easier to make financial deals between countries. На самом деле сокращение зависит от того, для какой ситуации вам нужен пересказ.
