1、Part 1 Something About the Bank 银行相关背景知识Part 1 Something About the Bank 银行相关背景知识 随着国际间政治、经济、文化等各个领域交流的不断扩大,国内改革开放政策的日益深入,银行在人们的日常生活中作用越来越大。不管是在国内还是在国外,同银行打交道已经成为人们生活中司空见惯的事。 西方国家的银行体系非常发达,其数量之多,效率之高,服务范围之广,无不让人感到现代文明带给人们的种种方便和优越。电脑已运用于各项银行业务,储户可在全国各地同一银行支行办理各项业务。而且所有的银行都设有自动存取机,就是auto-bank,设在银行门口,各个
2、街区的主要大街,地铁站,超市旁。如果你外出不方便携带大笔款项,只需将你的存折或银行信用卡随身带上,就能随时随地存取现款了。这样既方便又安全。 先来了解一下国外银行的一些业务常识。首先,去银行之前,先要了解银行的营业时间。英美银行一般在早上9:30开始营业,下午4点关门。每周五天工作制,周六周日休息。到了银行,先填存款或取款单。不管有几个人,都要自觉排队。在别人存款或取款时,你必须站在离他一两米远的地方等后,千万不要围在窗口或别人身旁。听到营业员叫时,再过去办理业务。如:Id like to withdraw $300 from my account. 我想取300元钱。或者I want to
3、deposit $ 200 in my account. 我想存200美元。如果你想在这家银行开户,就可以这样说:May I open an account here, please? 我想开户。营业员就会问:What type of account? 开哪一类的账户? 英美银行业务又很多种,如:活期存款账户,就是:checking account;定期账户,term/fixed deposit 等等。在国外短期居留的人一般来说办一个储蓄帐户就行了。这种账户既方便、安全又实惠,因为能获得一定的利息收入,其他形式的账户一般没有利息,而且每当你开出一张支票,银行还要扣你的服务费,也就是servic
4、e charge. 储蓄帐户又两种主要形式,一种是(daily interest) savings account /current account. 相当于我国的活期储蓄,可以随时支取,而且有利息。另一种是premium savings account或term (fixed) deposit, 相当于我国的定期储蓄,利息是最高的。 还有一点就是在办理开户手续时,营业员一定会让你留下亲笔签名,signature,这是今后核对的重要依据,所以签名最好是信手写来,不要一笔一划,以防被别人模仿,给自己造成经济损失。 办完开户手续后,一般来说定期储蓄当场就可拿到存单。活期储蓄一般先给一本临时存折,过
5、一两周后就会收到银行寄给你的塑料卡,这张卡上用钢印打有你的名字和账号,你就可以用它办理你的存取款业务了。为了安全起见,你应该记住你的存折密码,然后将其销毁,以防不测。 Useful Words and Phrases: current deposit, current account 活期存款 fixed deposit, fixed account 定期存款 fixed deposit by installments 零存整取 joint account 联名存款帐户 to open an account 开户头 to close an account, to clear an accoun

You look kind of worried. Whats the matter
16、? Jenny: Oh, so good to see you! I just got my first scholarship payment. Peter: Thats great. Jenny: Yes, but instead of cash, I got a check. I dont know what to do with it. I cant buy anything with a check, can I? Peter: No, you cant. First, you need to deposit the check in a bank, then pay your bi
17、lls by check and get some cash with your ATM card. Jenny: But I dont have either check or an ATM card. Its so inconvenient! Peter: It isnt. Everything is managed by a computer network. If you open an account in a local bank, you can deposit or get money from any ATM all over the city or the country;
18、 or even around the world, for that matter. We have three or four ATM machines right here on the campus. You can even get free software from the bank and pay your bills online. So its actually very convenient. Jenny: I really appreciate the information. Ill go to open an account right now. Peter: Do
19、nt forget to take your social security card. You do have one, dont you? Jenny: Yes, I do. As soon as I arrived in the States, a friend helped me apply for one from the social security office, but I never knew what it was for. Peter: Its for identification. When you picked up your paycheck, didnt the
20、y ask for your social security number? Jenny: Oh, yes, they did. But I couldnt remember the number so I had to fish around in my bag to find the card. Peter: Well, Id learn the number by heart if I were you. Youll need it pretty soon. Jenny: OK, I see. Peter: Good luck at the bank. See you later. Je
21、nny: Thanks for your help, bye. 讲解: 1. 在这段对话中,Peter建议Jenny去银行开一个账户,这样用起钱来会比较方便。Peter见Jenny心事重重的,问她怎么回事,Jenny说I just got my first scholarship payment. 我刚拿到我的第一笔奖学金。scholarship, 是指奖学金。领到了奖学金,为什么还会心事重重呢? 2. 因为Jenny收到的是一张支票,而不是现金。支票是check, 现金是cash, 是一个统称。其中还包括bills 或notes, 指钞票,纸币。coins指硬币。例如:Excuse me,
22、but Ive no cash on me. Can I pay by check? 对不起,我身边没带现钱,能不能用支票支付?cash这个词不仅可以做名词,还可以做动词,表示“兑换或兑现,把换成现款”,例如:Id like to cash this check. 我想兑现这张支票。就是把支票上的数目兑换成现金。 3. 这样的支票是不能用来直接买东西的,Jenny就不知道怎么办了,I dont know what to do with it. What to do with something和 how to deal with something都表示“如何处理某事”,但是动词一个用的是do
23、,一个用的是deal, 大家要注意区分了。 4. Peter 告诉Jenny说要先把支票存在银行里,然后用支票付账或用自动提款卡提取现金。deposit,储蓄,存放。例如:She deposited her money in the bank. 她把钱存在银行里。 那取款就是withdraw,例如:He withdrew $500 from his bank account yesterday. 他昨天从银行账户里提了500美金。 5. ATM card, 自动提款机卡,ATM 是自动提款机,也就是automatic teller machine的开头字母缩写。teller, 就是在银行窗口工
24、作的营业员。Jenny既没有支票也没有自动提款机卡,因为她觉得这两样东西都不是很方便。但是Peter却不这样认为,因为只要在一个银行开了户,就可以在全市、全国甚至全世界的联网支行里存取款。open an account, 就是开户,close an account, 就是销户。 6. 甚至还可以从银行那里得到免费的软件在网上付款。实际上真的是很方便。Peter还提醒Jenny开户不要忘了带社会保险卡,social security card,在美国就相当于身份证,经常要用到。social security number, 社会保险号码,就像我们的身份证号码,可能随时要用到,所以应该记住。但是J
25、enny总是记不住,每次用的时候都要在兜子里翻半天才能找到,在翻东西,这里用的是fish around这个词组。例如:He was fishing around his pocket for the keys. 他在兜里翻来翻去找钥匙。 7. Peter劝Jenny一定要把社会保险号码牢牢记住,learn something by heart, 把记在心里,牢牢记住。Youll need it pretty soon. 你马上就要用到它。这里的pretty,不是一个形容词,而是一个副词,是“非常”的意思,跟so 差不多。Dialogue Script 2 对话原文 2 Teller: Can
26、I help you? Sam: Yes. Id like to open an account, please. Teller: What sort of account did you have in mind? Sam: I need a checking account to pay my bills. Can you tell me how it works? Teller: Sure. You get a paycheck or a scholarship check made out to you, with the amount due to you, say $ 2,500.
27、 You sign your name on the back of the check, mark it for deposit only-so no one can cash the check if you lose it-and deposit in your account. You can do that either by mail, or here in the bank with a deposit slip during bank hours, or at any ATM machine twenty-four hours a day. Sam: That sounds e
28、asy. Then what? Teller: Then you send a check to your landlord for the rent, to the gas and electricity and phone and cable TV companies-whatever. Companies generally include return envelopes with their bills, so you put in your check, stamp the envelope, and drop it in the mail. Sam: Im with you so
29、 far.Teller: Be sure to keep a record of your checks you write in this check register, then add up your checks and deduct the amount from our account balance. Make sure you have more money in your account than needed for the checks your write, in case there are any fees. Sam: What happens if I make
30、a mistake. Teller: Its very expensive to bounce a check. Youll be charged by the bank and again by the person or company to whom you gave the bad check. Sam: I see. Teller: If you have access to a computer, you can pay most of your bills online instead of by mail with software we provide to you for
31、free. Sam: Is it very complicated? Teller: Not at all. Ill show you later how it works. First fill out these forms, print your name and social security number here, and here, and sign your name here, and here, and well be all set. 讲解: 1. 对话中Sam想要开一个银行账户,在询问营业员该如何办理。营业员问,你想开一个什么类型的账户,What sort of acc
32、ount did you have in mind?,就像我们在第一部分里说的,银行的账户又很多种类型,开之前一定要想清楚。 2. Sam说想开一个活期账户来支付账单,就是checking account,也可以说current account 。这个过程比较复杂,我们来一句一句的解释。营业员告诉Sam比如说你有一张工资支票或者奖学金支票,就是You get a paycheck or a scholarship check made out to you, 支票上注明了你应得的现金数额,比如说是2500美元吧,with the amount due to you, say $ 2,500.
33、3. 然后在支票的背面签上你的名字并注明“只要储蓄”的字样,支票就存入你的账户了。You sign your name on the back of the check, mark it for deposit only and deposit in your account. 这样做是因为即使把支票弄丢了,也没人能把它兑现。so no one can cash the check if you lose it。你可以通过邮寄的形式办理存款手续,也可以在银行营业时间亲自来办理。或者一天24小时中的任何时间都可以在自动提款机上办理手续,看来真的是很简单啊。 4. Sam也这样认为,开户之后Sam
34、就可以开支票给房东支付房租,付水电煤气费等等。Sam都听明白了,他说Im with you so far. 这在口语当中挺常用的,比如在上课的时候,老师会问,Are you still with me? 你们听明白我讲的了吗?营业员建议Sam一定要在支票记录簿上记下所有的账目,让后把账目加一加,在从结余额中间去减去那些支出。account balance. 就是账户结余,余额。 5. 如果签错了的话,支票被拒付而退还给开票人是要额外的费用的。所以一定要看仔细了。bounce a check,就是拒付支票。一般情况下,如果储户是第一次在该银行办理开户手续,营业员都会做很详细的解说,所以大家不要心
35、慌,只要认真按他说的步骤来进行就可以了。Part 3 Useful Sentences At Bank 有用句型 下面我们来总结一下在办理银行各种业务时有用的句型。 开户 What kind of account did you have in your mind? 你想开哪种帐户? Do you like to open a current account? 你想开一个活期存款帐户吗?
