You can either put it in my pigeon hole, or leave it with the Department's secretary. Now, let's get down to the lecture.Today, the lecture is on credit, er, or to be more specific, on credit cards. I'm sure you must have heard of some credit cards, like the VI SA card, which is an internationally used card, or the Great Wall card issued by the Bank of China, In order to give a better understanding, we'll discuss it in some detail.Many businesses, such as department stores, restaurants, hotels and airline companies, use a credit system for selling their products and services. In a credit system, the seller agrees to sell something to the buyer without immediately receiving cash. He receives the goods or ser vices immediately and promises to pay for them later. This buy-now-pay later credit system is quite old.There are two types of credit cards. One type is issued directly by a store to a customer. Many large department stores issue credit cards to their customers. The store credit card can be used to make purchases only at a particular store. For example, if you have a credit card from Store A, then you can only buy things in that store. Other stores would not accept it. The other kind of credit card is issued by a credit company. Credit cards from credit companies can be used to buy things almost anywhere. If you have a major credit card, you can buy airplane tickets, stay at hotels and eat at restaurant with it. Most large credit companies are connected to large banks. So if you want a credit card from a credit company, you generally have to make an application at a bank. After an applicant receives a credit card, he or she can make purchases using thecard.The credit company sends the customer a statement of purchases at the end of each month. Generally the customer has to pay 25--50% of their credit hill every month. The customer pays directly to the credit company and the credit company pays to the store or hotel or restaurant.There are some advantages and some disadvantages to using credit cards. The biggest advantage for the consumer is expressed by the phrase "buy now, pay later". This means that the consumer can purchase what he wants when he wants it. There is no need to save up money in advance. Another advantage of having a credit card is that it protects the owner, ff a credit card is lost or stolen, the owner only has to call the credit company and the credit company will stop the credit card number. No one else can use it. So the owner doesn't have to worry about losing the card. Another advantage of the credit card system is that the consumer receives a record of his or her purchases. Every month the credit customer receives a bill. The bill has a list of all purchases from that month. This makes it easier to remember when and where purchases are made. And another advantage is that credit cards can be used when something unexpected happens. Many kinds of professional people—plumbers, taxidrivers, doctors and dentists—will accept credit cards in an emergency. This is very important if you don't have any cash with you.However, having said all that, using credit cards has one major disadvantage. That is, consumers tend to overspend their money. They spend more than they make. If a consumer buys a lot of th

共用题干第二篇Credit Card Only Works When Spoken ToA credit card that will not work unless it hears its owner's voice could become an important weapon in the fight against fraud(欺骗).The card requires users to give a spoken password that it recognizes using a built-in voice-recognition chip.The idea is to prevent thieves using a stolen card or fraudsters using someone else's credit card details to buy goods online.A model built by engineers at Beepcard in Santa Monica,California,represents the first attempt to pack a microphone,a loudspeaker,a battery and a voice-recognition chip into a standard-sized credit card.They are not quite there yet:the card is the length and width of an ordinary credit card, but it is still about three times as thick.The company now plans to make it thinner.The voice card is based on an earlier Beepcard technology designed to prevent fraud in online transactions.This earlier card has no microphone,but has a built-in loudspeaker that it uses to " squawk"(发出叫声)a voice ID signal via a computer's microphone to an online server.By verifying(证实)that the signal matches the card details,the server can establish that the user is not simply keying in a credit card number but actually has the card to hand. The ID code changes each time the card is used in a pre-ordered sequence that only the server knows.This prevents fraudsters recording the beeps, noting the card details and then playing back the audible ID when they key in the details later.But this earlier technology cannot prevent fraudulent use of stolen cards.The new one can.The new voice card also identifies itself by its ID squawk,but it will not do this until it has verified the legitimate(合法的)user's spoken password. Thieves will be unable to use the card because even if they knew the password they would have to be able to copy the owner's voice with a high degree of accuracy.The challenge for Beepcard has been to develop voice-recognition and audio circuitry that can be powered by a mini battery embedded(嵌入的)in a credit card. To maximizebattery life,the electronics are only switched on when the card is being used.Pressing a button on the card's surface prompts it to utter "Say your password" in female voice.If the voice-recognition software proves that the password is authentic(真实的),it sends its IDsquawk which the server then identifies,allowing the transaction to proceed.What can we learn from the last paragraph about the voice card?A:Only female voice passwords could be recognized.B:Further improvement should be made to extend battery life.C:There is no!imit to its application.D:Female customers like to use it.

问答题Credit cards enable their holders to obtain goods and services on credit. They are issued by retail stores, banks, credit card companies to approved clients. The bank or credit card company settles the client’s bills, invoicing him monthly and charging interest on any outstanding debts. Their profit comes from the high rate of interest charged, the card holder’s subscriptions, and the fees paid by some organizations that accept cards.
