听力原文: Some banks offer other types of loans repayable by monthly installments, such as business development loans, house improvement loans, and farm development loans. These may be either secured or unsecured. Secured loans attract a slightly lower rate of interest than unsecured loans. Some banks offer revolving credit schemes. These normally involve loans repayable by regular monthly installments, but they differ from other loans repayable by installments in two respects. First, the borrower need not take up the full amount of the loan at the outset. Secondly, as his repayments reduce his indebtedness, he can "top up" his loan by borrowing more, provided that the total debt outstanding does not exceed his agreed credit limit. In 1967 some banks introduced a new form. of account called a "budget account". The object is to allow personal customers to spread the incidence of normal personal and household expenditure.

Dear professor,
Banks normally receive money from their customers in two distinct forms; on current account, and on deposit account. With a current account, a customer can issue personal cheques. No interest is paid by the bank on this type of account. With a deposit account, however, the customer undertakes (答应) to leave his money in the bank for a minimum specified period of time. Interest is paid on this money.
The bank in turn lends the deposited money to customers who need capital. This activity earns interest for the bank, and this interest is almost always at a higher rate than any interest which the bank pays to its depositors. In this way the bank makes its main profits.
We can say that the primary function of a bank today is to act as an intermediary (中间人) between depositors who wish to make interest on their savings, and borrowers who wish to obtain capital. The bank is a reservoir (水库) of loanable money, with streams of money flowing in and out. For this reason, economists and financiers often talk of money being" liquid" , or of the ' liquidity ' of money. Many small sums which might not otherwise be used as capital are made useful simply because the bank acts as a reservoir.
The system of banking rests upon a basis of trust. Innumerable acts of trust build up the system of which bankers, depositors and borrowers are part. They all agree to behave in certain predictable ways in relation to each other, and in relation to the rapid fluctuations of credit and debit. Consequently, business can be done and cheques can be written without visibly changing hands.
On______, the bank will pay interest.
A.the current account
B.personal cheques
C.the deposit account
D.both the current and deposit account
risks, savings, financial, funds, deposits, heart, complex, subject, appear,
repay, as, lose, reserve, returns, balance
Banks are crucial to a country's economy; they serve as the center point of the exchange of money throughout the economy. They gather【1】from small and large depositors, make loans, run the payments system, and coordinate【2】transactions. In developing countries, they usually are the【3】of the financial market and in industrial countries with【4】financial markets they still have a role as primary providers of financial services.
It is difficult for the layman to know if a bank is financially solid. Banks may【5】more solid than they really are. A bank that has loaned money to a borrower who is unable to【6】may keep the bad loan on its【7】sheet us long as possible, though the loan might never be paid back. Moreover, bank【8】are also somewhat precarious. A bank normally cannot refuse to accept deposits, but if, for whatever reason, its depositors【9】confidence in the bank's soundness, they may withdraw their【10】not only from that bank but also from other perfectly sound banks.
In seeking profits, banks lend on the basis of their customers' deposits, but not all deposits can be lent out. A certain share must be held in【11】. Competing institutions providing financial services are in a different situation since they are usually not【12】to reserve and prudential requirements. Firms selling equities do not promise fixed【13】and neither equities nor bonds are payable on demand,【14】are most bank deposits. Because of the pivotal role of banks and their vulnerability to unusual【15】, there seem to be good reasons to protect deposits through an appropriate insurance scheme and, in this way, to protect both the bank and the banking system.

When a Letter of Credit has been confirmed, the agent bank in the seller's country usually asks for the shipping documents, and often corite to the seller to say that they are willing to【21】a draft on them for the【22】.

A buyer or his bank may ask the seller if he is willing to allow them a period of 30, 60, or 90 days to pay. They may write.
