Background
A Culture Tip
The Beginning of Banking Banks first emerged in the Middle Ages when people grew tired of carrying around all their gold and began leaving their money with the goldsmith. Until the founding of the Bank of England in 1694, England's goldsmiths were its first bankers. They kept money and other valuables in safe custody for their customers. They also dealt in gold bullion and foreign exchange. They profited from acquiring and sorting coins of all kinds. To attract coins, the smiths were willing to pay interest.

The Boy and the Bank Officer
The Boy and the Bank OfficerThe Boy and the Bank Officer北京外国语大学英语系魏峥《英语学习》这个故事是作者对一次亲身经历的描述，是一篇写得十分成功的记叙文。
文章叙事清楚，描写细致生动，读来颇具意味。
我们在开始学习英文写作时首先应该学会写记叙文，记叙文是写其它形式的文章的基础，这个故事为我们提供了一个写作范例。
通常记叙文包括六个要素：事件、地点、人物、事件起因、经过、结果，这篇文章也不例外。
简而言之，文中描述的事件发生在一天中午，the West Side 的一家银行里，作者因一名银行职员拒绝为一个男孩提供取款服务而打抱不平，与银行职员发生争执，事件的结果出乎意料，作者得知银行职员实际上是在协助警方保护男孩免受坏人团伙的伤害。
记叙文所要传达的主题思想有时隐含在叙事过程之中，有时在文章的开头和结尾处点出。
写这篇文章时，作者在文章的开头向读者谈到他在故事发生之前对银行的看法。
他和他的朋友一向认为由于金融和宗教一样与人们的生活密不可分，因此银行也像教堂一样影响、控制着人们生活的方方面面，在现代社会，它对人们发号施令，简直是在履行着上帝的职能，所以他们厌恶银行。
在文章的结尾作者叙事完毕时虽然没有明确讲出这个故事所要传达的意思，但是其写作意图已经不言而喻了，即在经历了银行中发生的这件事后，他对银行的成见消除了，对银行有了新的正面认识。
这篇记叙文按照事件发生的先后顺序写成，从从容容，自然流畅，情节描写有主有次，重点突出，能够很好地为表达中心思想服务。
例如在叙述他为男孩据理力争时，作者着重讲述了他和银行职员的两次交锋(exchange)。
第一次争论的起因是银行职员以银行规定十四岁的孩子无父母许可信不能取款为由拒绝为男孩取款(a fourteen-year-old is not allowed to withdraw money without a letter from his parents)，作者指出银行此规定的不合理之处。

The Boy and the Bank Office
The Boy and the Bank Office旁白：李广英Boy:周世倩Narrator：刘鑫Office:邓启慧旁：I have a friend who hates banks with a special passion. ―A bank is just a store—like a candy store or a grocery store, ‖he says, ―The only different is that a bank‘s goods happen to be money, which is yours in the first place. If banks were required to sell wallets and money belts, the might act less like churches. I Began thinking about my friend the other day as I walked into a small, overlit branch office on the West Side. I had come to open a checking account. It was lunchtime and the only officer on duty was a fortyish black man with short, pressed hair, a pencil mustache, and a neatly pressed brown suit. Everything about him suggested a carefully dressed authority. This officer was standing across a small counter from a young white boy who was wearing a V-neck sweater, khakis and loafers. He had sandy hair, and I think I was especially aware of him because he looked more like a kid from a prep school than a customer in a West Side bank. The boy continued to hold my attention because of whathappened next.B: I don‘t understand that I opened the account, but why I can‘t withdraw any money?O: I‗ve already explained to you that a fourteen-year –old boy is not allowed to withdraw money from his parent.B: But that doesn‘t seem fair, it‘s my money. I put it in. It‘s my account.O: I know it is, but those are rules. Now if you‘ll excuse me.(转过去对着N说) May I help you ,sir?N: I was going to open a new account, but after seeing what‘s going on here, I think I‘ve my mind.O: Excuse me?N: Look! If I understand what‘s going on here correctly, what you are saying is that this boy is old enough todeposit his money in your bank but he‘s not old enough to withdraw it. And since there doesn‘t to be seem to be any question as to whether it‘s his money or his account, the bank‘s so-called policy is really ridiculous.O: It may seem ridiculous to you, but it‘s the bank‘s policy and I have no other alternative but to follow the rules.旁：The boy had stood hopefully to me during this exchange, but now I was just as hopeless. Suddenly I noticed that the open savings book he continued to grasp showed a balance of 100 dollars. It also show that there had been a series of small deposits and withdraws.I had my opening.N: Have you withdrawn money before by yourself?B: Yes.N: How do you explain that? Why did you let himwithdraw money before, but not now!O: Because the tellers were aware of his age and now they are. It‘s very simple.N:(转向小男孩并耸肩) You‘re really getting cheated, you ought to get your parents to come in here and protest.O: You know? You are really shouldn‘t have interfered.N: Shouldn‘t have interfered? Well, it damn well seemed to me that he needed someone to represent his interests.O: Someone was representing his interests.N: And who might that be?O: The bank.N: Look. We‘re just wasting each other‘s time. But maybe you‘d like to explain exactly how the bank wasrepresenting that boy‘s interests?O: Certainly, we were informed this morning that some neighborhood bully has been shaking this boy down for more than a month. But other guy was forcing him to take money out every week and hand it over. The poor kid was apparently too scared to tell anyone. That‘s the real reason he was so upset. He was so upset .He was afraid of what the other guy would do to him. Anyway, the police are on the case and they‘ll probably make an arrest today.N: You there is no rule about being too young to withdraw money from a savings account.O: Not that I had ever heard of. Now, sir, what can we do for you?。

unit 4-The Boy and the Bank Officer(I)
Background: Background: Banks
Banks of the 17th century also began to issue bank notes as a form of money. The notes had monetary value because they could be exchanged for specie: hard cash in the form of gold or silver. The amounts of the bank notes issued depended on a banker's expectation of public demand for specie and the bank's confidence in itself. Bank notes were probably first issued in the 1660s by the Bank of Stockholm in Sweden; the practice soon spread to England. The Bank of France was founded in 1800. For most of the 19th century the money markets of Europe were dominated by the House of Rothschild.
Italian Banking in the 14th Century
Background: Background: Banks
HISTORY OF BANKS Functions performed by banks today have been carried out by individuals, families, or state officials for at least 4,000 years. Clay tablets dated from about 2000 BC indicate that the Babylonians deposited personal valuables for a service charge of one 60th of their worth. Interest charges on loans ran as high as one third. The widespread commerce of Rome required a well-developed banking system. Roman authorities set aside the Street of Janus in the Forum for money changers. These individuals not only bought and sold foreign coins; they accepted deposits, made loans, issued bills of exchange and bills of credit (similar to today's checks), and bought mortgages.

The Boy and the Bank Officer-- Philip RossI have a friend who hates banks with a special passion. "A bank is just a store like a candy store or a grocery store", he says . "The only difference is that a bank's goods happen to be money, which is yours in the first place. If banks were required to sell wallets and money belts, they might act less like churches."I began thinking about my friend the other day as I walked into a small, over lighted branch office on the West Side. I had come to open a checking account.It was lunchtime and the only officer on duty was a fortyish black man with short, pressed hair, a pencil mustache, and a neatly pressed brown suit. Everything about him suggested a carefully dressed authority.This officer was standing across a small counter from a young white boy who was wearing a V-necked sweater, khakis, and loafers. He had sandy hair, and I think I was especially aware of him because he looked more like a kid from a prep school than a customer in a West Side bank.The boy continued to hold my attention because of what happened next.He was holding an open savings-account book and wearing an expression of open dismay. "But I don't understand," he was saying to the officer. "I opened the account myself, so why can't I withdraw any money?""I've already explained to you," the officer told him, "that a fourteen-year-old is not allowed to withdraw money without a letter from his parents.""But that doesn't seem fair," the boy said, his voice breaking. "It's my money, I put it in. It's my account.""I know it is," the officer said, "but those are the rules. Now if you'll excuse me."He turned to me with a smile. "May I help you, sir?"I didn't think twice. "I was going to open a new account," I said, "but after seeing what's going on here, I think I've changed my mind.""Excuse me?" he said."Look," I said. "If I understand what's going on here correctly, what you'resaying is that this boy is old enough to deposit his money in your bank but he's not old enough to withdraw it. And since there doesn't seem to be any question as to whether it's his money or his account, the bank's so-called policy is clearly ridiculous.""It may seem ridiculous to you," he replied in a voice rising slightly in irritation, "but that is the bank's policy and I have no other choice but to follow the rules".The boy had stood hopefully next to me during this exchange, but now I was just as helpless. Suddenly I noticed that the open savings book he continued to grasp showed a balance of about $100. It also showed that there had been a series of small deposits and withdrawals.I had my opening."Have you withdrawn money before by yourself?" I asked the boy."Yes," he said.I moved in for the kill."How do you explain that?" I zeroed in on the officer. "Why did you let him withdraw money before, but not now?"He looked annoyed. "Because the tellers were not aware of his age before and now they are. It's really very simple".I turned to the boy with a shrug. "You're really getting cheated," I said. "You ought to get your parents to come in here and protest."The boy looked destroyed. Silently, he put his savings book in a rear-pocket and walked out of the bank.The officer turned to me. "You know," he said, "you really shouldn't have interfered.""Shouldn't have interfered?" I shouted. "Well, it damn well seemed to me that he needed someone to represent his interests.""Someone was representing his interests," he said softly."And who might that be?""The bank."I couldn't believe what this idiot was saying. "Look," I concluded, "we're justwasting each other's time. But maybe you'd like to explain exactly how the bank was representing that boy's interests?""Certainly," he said. "We were informed this morning that some neighborhood bully has been shaking this boy down for more than a month. The other guy was forcing him to take money out every week and hand it over. The poor kid was apparently too scared to tell anyone. That's the real reason he was so upset. He was afraid of what the other guy would do to him. Anyway, the police are on the case and they'll probably make an arrest today.""You mean there is no rule about being too young to withdraw money from a savings account?""Not that I ever heard of. Now, sir, what can we do for you?"Glossary:AlternativeApparentlyBranchBullyConcludeDamnDismayFortyishHelpless HopefullyIdiot savings teller shrugInterfereIrritationLoafer Mustache Neatly passion sandy series shake slightly OverlitProtest rearWithdrawal。

2. Para: If banks were required to sell wallets and money belts, they might act less like churches. (para. 1)
Unreal condition and subjunctive mood The word “church” has certain associations. People usually think of a church as the spokesman of God, as a powerful organization that controls your life and can interfere in your life. To be like churches means to act authoritatively.
Paraphrasing: Even though banks sell financial service instead of common goods, they are still business organizations instead of churches. Thus it is ridiculous for them to act like churches by acting authoritatively and interfering in other people’s lives instead of focusing on their function and position as a business organization.
