长难句分析：本句是复合句，主语是This one，谓语是shows，后面是that 引导的宾语从句，作shows 的宾语。
use ... as ... 把…… 用作……
be used as 被用作……
e.g. We can use this box as a table.
我们可以把这只箱子当作桌子用。

introduce 一词多义：推行；采用；介绍；引进
e.g. In order to improve office efficiency, the company plans to introduce a brand-new automated office system.

8. It was first used during the Song Dynasty and made trading much easier.
长难句分析：该句为含并列谓语的简单句。主语为It；and连接两个并列谓语was first used和made，was first used是被动语态，made是主动语态的过去式； made trading much easier中trading是made的宾语，much easier是形容词的比较级作宾语补足语。
9. Nowadays, we seldom use paper money!
seldom 很少，不常
seldom 是频度副词，意为 “很少”，表否定含义，位于实义动词前，be 动词后
e.g. He seldom goes to school late.

11. By learning history, we can understand how things change.
通过学习历史，我们能了解事物是如何演变的。
分析结构：此句是含方式状语和宾语从句的复合句。we can understand 是主句，主语是we；谓语是can understand；宾语是由how 引导的宾语从句how things change，注意是陈述语序。By learning history 在句中作方式状语，意为“通过学习历史”，其中By 是介词，后接动名词短语作宾语，表示“通过某种方式或手段”。
“by + 动名词结构”表方式、手段，意为“通过做某事”。
宾语从句的引导词how 用于询问方式、过程，译为“如何；怎样”，从句需用陈述语序(主语+ 谓语+ 其他)。
e.g. By practicing every day, she improves her speaking skills.
通过每天练习，她的口语技能不断提高。
By travelling abroad, they can experience how cultures differ around the world. 通过出国旅行，他们能体验世界各地的文化是如何不同的。
12. Visiting a history museum is a great way to learn more about ancient Chinese currency.
参观历史博物馆是深入了解中国古代货币的好方法。
分析结构：句子是主系表结构的简单句，核心结构为动名词短语作主语+ 系动词+ 表语+ 不定式短语作定语。主语是Visiting a history museum 动名词短语，系动词是is，表语是a great way“一种好方法”，名词短语作表语。定语是to learn more about ancient Chinese currency。
单个的动名词或动名词短语作主语的用法：动名词(v. -ing)作主语时，视为第三人称单数，谓语动词用单数形式。
多个动名词(短语)作主语 → 分两种情况当两个或两个以上动名词(短语)用and 连接时，需看语义是否关联：
(1) 表“两个独立动作” → 谓语用复数
若动名词描述互不关联的行为，视为复数主语，谓语用复数。
(2)表“同一概念 / 关联动作”→ 谓语用单数
e.g. Travelling alone is an exciting chance to challenge yourself.
独自旅行是挑战自我的绝佳机会。
Learning a musical instrument is a useful way to develop patience.
学习一种乐器是培养耐心的有效方法。
