Subject: нужен взгляд со стороны
Здравствуйте! Помогите, пожалуйста. Нужен взгляд со стороны. В тексте нужно найти слова со значением: can be divided; lasts a long time; can be carried; can be recognized. Правильно ли я их нашла (в предложениях я их выделила ковычками)? Большое спасибо!
can be divided - Barter, however, was a very unsatisfactory system because people's needs "seldom coincided".
lasts a long time - Precious metals "gradually" took over because when made into coins, they were portable, durable, recognizable and divisible into larger and smaller units of value.
can be carried - Precious metals gradually took over because when made into coins, they "were portable", durable, recognizable and divisible into larger and smaller units of value.
can be recognized - Somebody could exchange a sheep, for example, for anything in the market-place that they "considered" to be of equal value.
Текст следующий:
Money is used for buying or selling goods, for measuring value and for storing wealth.
Almost every society now has a money economy based on coins and paper notes of one kind or another. However, this has not always been true. In primitive societies a system of barter was used. Barter was a system of direct exchange of goods. Somebody could exchange a sheep, for example, for anything in the market-place that they considered to be of equal value. Barter, however, was a very unsatisfactory system because people's needs seldom coincided. People needed a more practical system of exchange, and various money systems developed based on goods, which the members of a society recognized as having value. Cattle, grain, teeth, shells, feathers, skulls, salt, elephant tusks have all been use. Precious metals gradually took over because when made into coins, they were portable, durable, recognizable and divisible into larger and smaller units of value.
A coin is a piece of metal, usually disc-shaped, which bears lettering, designs or numbers showing its value. Until the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries coins were given monetary worth based on the exact amount of metal contained in them, but most modern coins are based on face value, the value that governments choose to give them, irrespective of the actual metal content. Coins have been made of gold, silver, copper, aluminum, nickel, lead, zinc, plastic and in China even from pressed tea leaves. Most governments now issue paper money in the form of noted. Paper money is obviously easier to handle and much more convenient in the modern world. Cheques, bankers’ cards and credit cards are being used increasingly and it is possible to imagine a world where “money” in the form of coins and paper currency will no longer be used.

если это ваше домашнее задание, то для вас лучше будет, если вы сдадите свой вариант и обсудите его с преподавателем

Первое занятие и уже пошли скидки!

Ковычками — это не комильфо
Настоящие светские львицы должны писать это плебейское слово через А.
Вот тогда это будет настоящий цимус, сиречь признак качества.

can be carried - правильно

ищите дальше (подсказка: в том же предложении найдете эквивалент для "can be recognized")
