1 exchange: "Exchange" is the correct choice here. To "exchange money" is to "swap", "switch", or "trade" it. In this context, we "exchange" one type of money for another. Example: "I exchanged $100 for £2. I don't think that was a very good deal". You can exchange money at a "bureau de change" (UK) or a "currency exchange" (US).
1 give: If you're going on holiday, you don't want to give all your money to anyone (especially not a bank) before you leave!
1 spend: If you're going on holiday, you don't want to give all your money to anyone (especially not a bank) before you leave!
2 currencies: "Currencies" is the best term here. A "currency" is a type of money, such as the Dollar, the Yen, the Euro, etc. In the dialogue, two currencies are discussed: the Australian Dollar and the American Dollar. Interestingly, the word "Dollar" is derived from the Low German term "daler".
2 exchange rates: An "exchange rate" is the difference in value between two currencies. This is not the right answer here.
2 transaction fees: "Transaction fees" are charges incurred when you perform an operation, for example at a bank. This is not the right answer here.

3 currency: A "currency" is a type of money: Pounds, Dollars, Yen, Euros, etc. This is not the right answer here.
4 transaction fee: "Transaction fee" is the right answer. Banks often charge you a "transaction fee" when you transfer money from one account to another. In the dialogue, the Australian woman charges Philip a "transaction fee" for giving him American Dollars and taking Australian Dollars from him. She's a shrewd businesswoman!
4 currency: A "currency" is a type of money: Pounds, Dollars, Yen, Euros, etc. This is not the right answer here.
4 exchange rate: An "exchange rate" is the difference in value between two currencies. This is not the right answer here.
5 swap: "Swap" is the best choice here. To "trade" one thing for another is to "swap", "switch", or "exchange" it. In the dialogue, the characters discuss "trading some money". Here's another example: "I'll trade my apple for your orange. I don't like apples, but I love oranges".
5 guess: To "guess" is to "estimate" or "imagine" a possible answer. This is not the right answer.

练习 2
What is the reason for Jean's visit to the bank?

What is the reason for Jean's visit to the bank?
To "loan" money is to give money with the understanding that it will be returned at a later time. In this dialogue Jean expresses that he is expecting to "receive" money from Vladimir, and not that he wants to "loan" money to Vladimir.
Jean is not exchanging currency, which is the process of converting one currency to another. Jean is expecting to receive an "international wire transfer".
Jean begins this dialogue by telling the bank clerk that he wants to "receive a huge sum". A "huge sum of money" is a large amount of money. Jean then explains that his friend is sending the money from Kalackistan. The bank clerk then correctly identifies what Jean wants by asking, "So this is an international wire transfer?". An "international wire transfer" is the process of sending money electronically from one country to another. Jean has gone to the bank in order to obtain this information.
Jean asks the bank clerk how to receive an "international wire transfer", which is the process of sending money from one country to another (by wire, or electronically). Jean knows that the money hasn't yet been placed in his account, he is inquiring as to how this is done. "To credit" money to someone's account is to give or award someone money.
