23、This exchange of goods and services for other goods and services is called bartering.”可知，此处主要讲的是“物物交换”，F项中 “buying a chicken might cost several potatoes”是“物物交换”的一个例子，符合上下文文意，故选F项。2E由前文可知，本文第一段讲的是“物物交换”；由空后句 可知，第二段讲的是“贝壳作为货币使用”，故此空的作用是承上启下。E项中的“such exchanges”与第一段句末的“this exchange”相呼应，选项中的however以及im
