11、nks for turning up today, thanks for turning up today to this short talk Im going to give on student banking. Many of you are unfamiliar with the way banks work in this country and todays talk should just give you a few starting points. I will, of course, answer any questions at the end. Right. Well
12、, as you probably know, youll need to open a bank account while youre hereits the safest place to keep your moneyand its best to open an account with one of the major banks. You should each have a handout with the names and addresses. . .theres Barclays in Realty Square, National Westminster in Pres
13、ton Park, Lloyds in City Plaza and Midland in Hope Street. OK. All these banks offer special student accounts. However, its important to note that as an international student youll not necessarily be eligible for all the facilities offered to resident students. Now, as an international student, you
14、will need to provide evidence that you can fund yourself for however long your course lasts. Banks have different policies and the services that theyll offer you will depend on your individual circumstances and on the discretion of the bank manager involved. So its a matter of going there and findin
15、g out about your own particular situation. Right, erm, when you do go to open a bank account, you should take some documentation with you. Ive already mentioned that you must be able to support yourself. In addition to this, most banks ask you to bring your passport and your letter or certificate of
16、 enrolment. OK? Now, by far the most useful type of account to open is a current account. When you do this, you will actually get what is called a student account which is a current account with special concessions for students. When you open the account, the bank will give you a chequebook and you
17、can use this to draw money out as you need it. If you need to write cheques in shops, youll also need a cheque card. This is really an i-dentity card which guarantees that correctly written cheques up to the value stated on the card will be honoured by the bank. OK? Right, er, if you want to draw ou
18、t cash for yourself you can make the cheque payable in your own name or to cash. You can also withdraw cash from a cashpoint machine with a cashcard. These are extremely useful as they enable you to withdraw cash from your account during the day or at night. There is also another card called Switch
19、or Delta and you can use this to pay for things in shops. It takes the money right out of your account, so you dont need your chequebook. Nowyou may want to take more money out of the bank than you have in it. This is called having an overdraft. Be very careful with thisyou should not do this withou
20、t permission from your bank. Overdrafts usually incur charges, though some banks offer interest-free overdrafts to some students. But find out before you get one! Right? Well, that just leaves opening timeswhen can you go? Banks used to be open from 9.30 am until 3.30 pm from Monday to Friday but ma
21、ny main branches are now open until 4.30 or 5 pm on weekdays and some of the bigger branches in London and other major cities are now open for a limited time on Saturdays.

D: Oh hi, Ilmar. I: Im glad Ive bumped into you. Ive just found a great idea for the presentati
23、on weve got to do for Dr Banks next month. D: What, the one on everyday objects? I: Yeslook at this articleits really interesting. D: The aluminium coke can? It You knowcoca cola cans, soft drink cans . Look lets sit down here. Have you got a minute? D: Sure Ill just get my bag. D: OK, so you think
24、we can get a presentation out of this article? I: Im sure we can. First of all we can provide some interesting facts about the aluminium cans that we drink out of every day. D: Like? I: Well, hereit says that in the US they produce 300 million aluminium drink cans each day. D: Wow! 300 million! I: E
25、xactly. Thats an enormous number. It says here outstrips the production of nails or paper clips. And they say that the manufacturers of these cans exercise as much attention and precision in producing them as aircraft manufacturers do when they make the wing of an aircraft! D: Really! Lets have a lo
26、ok. I: Theyre trying to produce the perfect canas thin but as strong as possible. D: Mmm. . .this bits interesting todays can weighs about 0.48 ounces: thinner than two pieces of paperfrom this magazine say. I: Yeah, and yet it can take a lot of weight. D: More than 90 pounds of pressure per square
27、inchthree times the pressure of a car tyre. OK, I agree, its a good topic. I: What I thought was that we could do a large picture of a coke can and label it and then talk about the different parts. Look, Ive done a rough picture here. D: OK, so where shall we start? I: Well, the lid is complicated.
28、Lets start with the body first. Ill do a line from the centre of the canlike thisand label it body. What does it say? D: Its made of aluminium, of course, and its thicker at the bottom. I: Right, so that it can take all that pressure. D: And then I think you should draw another line from the body fo
29、r the label. I: Right label. The aluminium is ironed out until its so thin that it produces. . .what does it say? D: A reflective surface suitable for decoration. I: Thats right, apparently it helps advertisers, too. D: Yes, because its so attractively decorated. I: Goodand then theres the base. D:
30、Yes, it says the bottom of the can is shaped like a dome so that it can resist the internal pressure. I: Thats interesting. I didnt know that. D: Nor did I. OK, so going up to the lidthere are several things we can label here. Theres the rim around the edge which seals the can. I: Got that. And ther
31、es a funny word for the seal, isnt there? D: Yes, its a flange. I: What does it say about it? D: Well, the cans filled with coke or whatever and after that the top of the can is trimmed and then bent over to secure the lid. I: Thats right, it looks like a seam. We could even do a blow-up of it like
32、this F -L-A-N-G-E D: Yes, that would be clearer. I think we should label the lid itself and say that it constitutes twenty-five percent of the total weight. I: Twenty-five percentso its stronger than the body of the can. D: So to save money, manufacturers make it smaller than the rest of the can! I:
33、 Didnt know that eitherso how do we open a can of coke? D: Mmm first of all theres the tab which we pull up to open the can and thats held in place by a rivet. I: Mmm I think thats too small for us to include. D: I agree, but we can talk about it in the presentation. We can show the opening though.
34、I: Thats the bit of the can that drops down into the drink when we pull the tab. D: Yeah, hopefully. Sometimes the tab just breaks off. I: I know. D: Anyway the opening is scored so that it pushes in easily but doesnt detach itself. I: OK, we can show that by drawing a shadow of it inside the can, l
35、ike this. Ill label it scored opening. Great well, I think weve got the basis of a really interesting presentation. Lets go and photocopy the article. D: Fine. Ill take it home and study it some more. 22 【正确答案】 300 millio 23 【正确答案】 paper clips 24 【正确答案】 magazine pages/pieces of paper/pages 25 【正确答案】

Now the purpose of this lect
37、ure is twofold: onewe want you to experience a university lecture, to give you a taste of what listening to a u-niversity lecture is like, and twowe want you to find out something about the Sports Studies program at this university. So feel free to ask any questions during the talk and Ill do my bes
38、t to answer them. Rightso what does a course in Sports Studies involve? Well, you wouldnt be blamed for not knowing the answer to this question because Sports Studies as a discipline is still comparatively new. But its a growing area and one which is now firmly established at our university. Now the
39、re are three distinct strands to Sports Studies and you need to choose fairly early on just which direction you wanted to follow. And Ill just run over these now. Firstly, weve got the Sports Psychology strand, secondly, weve got the Sports Management strand, and last, but not least, theres the Spor
40、ts Physiology strand. So just to recap theres Sports Psychology, Sports Management, and Sports Physiology. Lets look first at Psychology. Now the people who study Sports Psych want to work with top athletes, and theyre looking at what will take those athletes that one percent extra. What makes them
41、win? When all other things are equal, physically all other things are equal, they want to know what are the mental facto rs involved? The Sports Psychologist works closely with the athlete through his or her training program and becomes an integral part of the team. In fact you could say that they p
42、lay just as important a role as the coach. So if youre interested in what makes people win, this could be the area for you. Now secondly, weve got the strand which I referred to as Sports Management and this goes hand in hand with the area of Sports Marketing. So you might like to think of this area
43、 as having two branches: Management and Marketing. On the Management side we look at issues relating to the running of sports clubs, management of athletes, that sort of thing. But then on the other side, weve got Sports Marketing. And this is the side that interests me more because here we will loo
44、k at the market forces behind sport. Questions like: why do people spend their money on a football match, or a tennis game, rather than, say, on buying a CD or going to the cinema? What are those market forces? Sport used to just compete with sport. Nowadays it competes with other leisure activities
45、. The spectators go to sport to be entertained rather than out of loyalty to a team. They want to have an evening out and they dont want the cheap seats any more; they want good seats, they want entertainment. And the professional sportsmen and women respond to this without question. Theyre there to
46、 give a performance. They provide the entertainment. So in the marketing course we address all these commercial issues and we look at how this hooks back into the Management of sport. Now the third branch of Sports Studies sometimes comes under another name and is also known as Exercise Science. And
47、 again here we find that there are two distinct types of exercise science. The first is working very much at the macro level. What I call the huffing and puffing people. So this looks at fitness testing, body measurements, all that sort of thing. But the more interesting side of sports physiology, a
48、t least in my view, is the side that looks at the micro level. Looking at cellular change. Theyre doing cellular research, looking at changes in body cells when the body is under stress. So that just about brings us to the end of our mini-lecture for today. I hope youve found it interesting and I lo
49、ok forward to seeing you all on our course next year. Feel free to come and talk to me if you want any more information. Ill be over at that notice board near the main entrance.
