Opening an Account

• Good morning.

• Good morning, sir. Can I help you?

• Yes, I think so. I would like to open an account.

• What kind of are you interested in?

• You see, I have some spare money to put into the bank.

• Then you should open either a savings or a checking account.

• I'm afraid I know nothing about either of them. Could you tell me the difference between these two accounts?

• A small initial deposit is necessary to open a savings account at our bank. If it is more than five hundred dollars and you maintain this amount, then you won't be charged for banking services. Otherwise you will be charged five dollars a month.

- So, 1 must keep a minimum balance of $500, is that correct?

• Yes, that's right. Our computers check your average daily balance.

• And will I get a banking card after opening an account?

• Yes, certainly. And then you can get your money through machine services. You can make deposits, cash withdrawals and balance inquiries with your card. The machine is at work 24 hours a day.

• Oh. it's very convenient. And may 1 ask what a checking account means?

• Certainly, sir. After opening a checking account you are supposed to maintain an average daily balance of $1,000.

• And what if I fall below this limit?

• Then you would have to pay a service charge of six dollars a month, and besides you will be charged 25 cents for each check and the same amount for each cash withdrawal.

• Hmm, I see. And can I avoid it somehow?

• Yes, of course. It may be done by keeping your $1,000 in your checking account.

• And how much interest do you pay?

• Interest of 6,5% is paid when your average daily balance is over $2,500. We credit the interest you've earned automatically to your

account.

• Well, it's clear enough, but I intended to put only $1.000 into the account.

• Then it would be more profitable for you to open a savings account.

• Okay. I've made up my mind. I will open a savings account with a deposit of one thousand dollars.

• Fine. Will you fill out this application? (The client fills out the application)

• Is everything correct?

• Yes. every thing is all right. And now you need to write a deposit ticket for $1,000.

• Just a moment.

• Thank you, sir. Here is your pass-book. The bank will pay you 5,5% interest.

• Thank you. You were most helpful.

Soccer

The modern game of soccer has a simple goal: kick or head the ball into the goal of your opponent's team. Basically, there is also one simple rule: no one except the goalkeeper may use their hands to play the ball. In a soccer game there are two teams of 11 players, who try to score a point by kicking a ball into the opponents net. Soccer is played on a rectangular field with a net on each short side of the field.

Eleven members of each team defend their side of the field to prevent the ball from being forced into their goal, which results in a point, scored by the team kicking the ball. There are only three officials involved in the game: the referee and two linesmen.

The equipment used in soccer is also very simple» In addition to the field itself, all that is needed for a game is a ball. Each player wears padded shin guard made of hard plastic, covered by long socks, for protection during play.

A goalkeeper may also wear a special padded shirt and gloves to protect hands. A standard field, as regulated by the Federation International de Football Association (or FIFA), has a length between 100 and 130 yards, and a width of between 50 and 100 yards.

A soccer game begins with a kick-off in the centre of the field. A coin is flipped to decide which team will kick-off. The other team kicks off at the start of the second half when the teams switch sides or nets. After a team scores the other team gets to kick-off in the centre of the field.

After the beginning of the game the ball remains in play unless it crosses a goal line or a touch line. All players attempt to stop the ball from coming in their zone while at the same time trying to score a goal. A player may kick the ball into the net with any part of the body except the hands and arms.

If the ball goes out of bounds, the play is restarted with a corner kick, a goal kick or a throw-in. The referee decides what type to use. If the ball crosses the goal line and the defensive team touched it last then there is a corner kick by the offence. If the offence touches the ball last and crosses the goal line then it is a goal kick. A throw- in happens when the ball crosses the touch line. When it crosses the touch line, the team that did not touch it last, throws the ball in bounds. The ball is thrown over their head with two hands. Fouls are called when a player does not obey the rules and acts unsportsmanlike. When a foul is called, the opposite team receives either a penalty kick, a direct free kick or an indirect free kick.

For offences such as shoving and tripping, either a direct free kick (offences not in the goal box) or a penalty kick-(inside the goal box) is awarded. Both allow goals to be made directly from the kicks. If a minor offence is being committed, then an indirect free kick is given, from which a goal cannot be scored.

Most soccer games have 45-minute halves, and the clock is not stopped except for injuries or deliberate time wasting. In professional soccer, only three to five substitutions are allowed per half. Generally, more are allowed in lower leagues.

Children often play the sport in school as early as elementary school.

Many adults also play the sport. Soccer for many kids can be fun. Most children don't think of soccer as work and often enjoy playing soccer. Adults also sometimes find soccer fun and even some adults have careers in the area as a professional soccer players.

As for me I like soccer very much. I like both watching it and playing it. It is my favourite kind of sport.

Like = 'similar to', 'the same as'. You cannot use as in this way:    •    What a beautiful house! It's like a palace.  (not as a palace)    •    'What does Sandra do?'    'She's a teacher, like me.'  (not as me)    •    Be careful! The floor has been polished. It's like walking on ice.  (not as walking)    •     It's raining again. I hate weather like this.  (not as this) In these sentences, like is a preposition. So it is followed by a noun (like a palace), a pronoun (like me / like this) or -ing (like walking). You can also say '... like (somebody/something) doing something':    •    'What's that noise?'    'It sounds like a baby crying.'

Sometimes like = for example:    •    Some sports, like motor-racing, can be dangerous. You can also use such as (= for example):    •    Some sports, such as motor-racing, can be dangerous.

As = in the same way as, or in the same condition as. We use as before subject + verb:    •    I didn't move anything. I left everything as it was.    •    You should have done it as I showed you. Like is also possible in informal spoken English:    •    I left everything like it was. Compare as and like:    •    You should have done it as I showed you.  (or like I showed you)    •    You should have done it like this.  (not as this) Note that we say as usual / as always:    •    You're late as usual.    •    As always, Nick was the first to complain.

I don't feel as if I've just had a holiday. You can use as though in all these examples:    •   I don't feel as though I've just had a holiday. In informal spoken English you can also use like:    •   That house looks like it's going to fall down. Compare:    •   You look tired.  (look + adjective)        You look as if you haven't slept.  (look as if + subject + verb)

During and while Compare:

Some more examples of while:     •    We saw Clare while we were waiting for the bus.     •    While you were out, there was a phone call for you.     •    Chris read a book while I watched television.
