On the 8th of March people in our country celebrate International Women’s Day. It’s a great tradition to thank the women we love for beauty and care they give us. We greet our moms and grannies, our sisters and friends, our lovers, teachers and colleges. All the women are always beautiful but on such a day they are absolutely charming like the flowers. Perhaps, that’s why the best present for the 8th of March is a bunch of spring flowers. We always celebrate the 8th of March in our family. Our tradition for this holiday is that all the housework is done by men. My mother and I are not allowed to help in any way. My father and brother get up early and cook celebration meals, decorate the flat with flowers and make coffee while women are restricted to come in. Then we sit down at the table to have breakfast. After that it’s time for giving presents. If the weather is fine we may go for a walk to the park. In the evening we receive guests. Our friends come to talk and have some fun together. The 8th of March is a happy day for every woman when she is specially treated just for being woman. We are always thankful to our dear men for their attention
1. In a barter economy we need to exchange every item we want for something that we can provide.
2. The story of the mechanic and the farmer demonstrates that not in every barter case people can provide to you what you need because they either do not have it or you do not need what they have.
3. The first advantage of money a system that uses money and not bartering is that you don't have to find "the right person". You just need to go to the market to sell good or services or buy what you need from others.

6. Precious metals were used as money because: they were hard to obtain, there was a finite supply of them in the world, it was easy to divide them into standard coins and over time they would not lose their value.
7. The disadvantage of silver and gold coins was that these metal coins were heavy and it was not comfortable for people to carry these precious metals with them all the time.
8. The first "paper money" looks like cash money - paper bank notes of a flat shape.
9. "Flat money" is the same cash money like we use today which is made of paper bank notes.
10. Governments cannot print as much money as they like because it will lead to higher prices and loss of the money value.
