Banking began thousands of years ago in early civilization. The first bankers were moneychangers and they took foreign

money from travelers and gave them local coins. They carried the money in special boxes called strong boxes to protect it

from robbers. Later, people brought their money to money changers for protection. Eventually, money changers loaned

money to people and charge them interest.

The early Italian bankers worked outdoors in the street. They used a bench for business. In fact, the modern word “bank”

comes from an Italian word meaning “bench”. By the 16th century banks were popular here and there in Europe. They were

family business. King and other rich people borrowed some money from bankers.

In the next century British were first to make paper money. They gave their customers paper notes in exchange for their gold

and silver. People liked the paper notes a lot, because they are easy to carry. After a while, people accepted bank notes as

money. The first successful bank in the United States opened in Philadelphia in 1772. Today there are about 14,000 banks in

the USA.

Last August, Joe and Mary Mahoney began looking at colleges for their 17-year-old daughter, Maureen. With a checklist

of criteria in hand, the Dallas family looked around the country visiting half a dozen schools. They sought a university that

offered the teenager’s intended major, one located near a large city, and a campus where their daughter would be safe. “The

safety issue is a big one,” says Joe Mahoney, who quickly discovered he wasn’t alone in his worries. On campus tours other

parents voiced similar concerns, and the same question was always asked : what about crime? But when college officials

always gave the same answer

——“That’s not a problem here,” ——

Mahoney began to feel uneasy.

“No crime whatsoever?” comments Mahoney today. “ I just don’t buy it.” Nor should he. In 1999 the U.S. Department of

education had reports of nearly 400,000 serious crimes on or around our campuses. “Parents need to understand that times

have changed since they went to college,” says David Nichols, author of Creating a Safe Campus. “Campus crime mirrors the

rest of the n

ation.”

But getting accurate information isn’t easy. Colleges must report crime statistics(

统计数字

)by law, but some hold back for

fear of bad publicity, leaving the honest ones looking dangerous. “The truth may not always be serious,” warms S. Daniel

Carter o

f Security on Campus, Inc., the nation’s leading campus safety watchdog group.

To help concerned parents, Carter promised to visit campuses and talk to experts around the country to find out major crime

issues and effective solutions.

Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car

or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.

One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a

lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one’s own.

Then, in the country one can rest from the noise and hurry of the town. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more

time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh,

clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one’s fr

ee time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred

and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has the reward of one

who has shared the secret of Nature.

Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres,

beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if

they had to live it outside London. An o

ccasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight’s (two weeks) visit to the sea every

summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London

every night.
