V. Read the passage carefully and write the answers ( from 36 to 40).
Centuries ago, when gold coins exclusively were used as the money of nations and city – states, the comparative
value of each nation’s money was determined by the ratio of gold content of each coin. Today, gold coins are “
used” only by collectors. National money is printed on paper. Each country has its own currency, with names such
as pound, dollar, dong, yuan and so on. Deciding the rate for the international exchange of money is one of the most

complex and, to many observers, one of the most fascinating aspects of international banking. Each major currency
has a “ par value” that is usually defined, officially, in terms of gold.
