Banks were developed to keep people’s money safe and make it available when they needed it . Since money was invented , people have been borrowing and lending it . A modern bank accepts people’s money for safe keeping . It also lends money and offers other services . The experience of a businessman will show some of these . James Jones has a furniture store and buys his goods from different parts of the country . It isn’t convenient for him to send money through the mail , so he goes to the bank and opens a checking account . He puts his money in the bank regularly , and the bank keeps it until he writes checks for that amount. When Mr. Jones orders furniture from the modern furniture company in another city , he simply writes a check. This check is as good as money to the owner of the company. The owner can take it to his bank and cash it,that is,he can get money for it. Now Mr. Jones deposits money in a savings account at the bank . The bank then uses this money and pays him a certain percentage on each dollar every year. For example,if he deposits $1 000 the bank pays him 4 percent , he will have earned $40 by the end of the year. This payment is called interest. Mr. Jones gets still other services from the bank. When he travels , he buys traveler’s checks from the bank instead of carrying money with him.And he can rent a safe-deposit box in the bank for his valuable papers and articles . It’s hard to imagine that people could do business without the services of a bank.

How to protect child Web fans from unsuitable material on-line while encouraging them to use the Internet has long been discussed in the U.S.
For some parents the Internet can seem like a jungle(丛树),filled with danger for their children . But jungles contain wonders as well as hazards(危险,机会)and , with good guides , some education and a few precautions(预防措施), the wilds of the Internet can be safely navigated . “ Kids have to be on-line . If we tell our kids they can’t have access(接近)to the Internet , we’re cutting them off from their future , ” said an expert .

Rome-Doctors and medical groups around the world last weekend reacted with strong opposition to the news that an Italian specialist is on the brink of cloning the first human baby .

In the end , she outlived the 20th century with energy and enthusiasm . “ I love life , that’s my secret , ” she told a friend when she was in her 80s . In a television interview last week , her grandson Prince Charles said , “ She saw the funny side of life and we laughed until we cried . ”
