In the mid 1990s, banks in China began to focus their attention on capital adequacy requirements, non-performing and bad loans, profitability and also the industry's overall expansion strategy. Reforms of monetary and financial system in China are speeding up in the 90s. Existing specialized banks gradually have become commercial banks.

DImagine，one day，getting out of bed in Beijing and being at your office in Shanghai in only a couple of hours，and then，after a full day of work，going back home to Beijing and having dinner there．Sounds unusual，doesn't it? But it's not that unrealistic，with the development of China’s high—speed railway system．And that’s not a11．China has an even greater high—speed railway plan—to connect the country with Southeast Asia，and eventually Eastern Europe．China is negotiating to extend its own high·-speed railway network to up to 17 countries in 1 0 to 15 years，eventually reaching London and Singapore．China has proposed three such projects．The first would possibly connect Kunming withSingapore via Vietnam and Malaysia．Another could start in Urumqi and go through Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan，and possibly to Germany．The third would start in the northeast and go north through Russia and then into Western Europe．If China’s plan for the high-speed railway goes forward，people could zip over from London to Beiling in under two days．The new system would still follow China’s high—speed railway standard．And the trains would be able to go 346 kilometers an hour，almost as fast as some airplanes．China’s bullet train(高速客车)，the one connecting Wuhan to Guangzhou，already has the World’s fastest average speed．It covers 1,069 kilometers in about three hours． Of course，there are some technical challenges to overcome．There are so many issues that need to be settled，such as safety，rail gauge(轨距)，maintenance of railway tracks．So，it’s important to pay attention to every detail．But the key issue is really money．China is already spending hundreds of billions of yuan on domestic railway expansion．China prefers that the other countries pay in natural resources rath er than with capital investment．Resources from those countries could stream into China to sustain development．It’11 be a win-win project. For other countries，the railway network will definitely create more opportunities for business，tourism and so on，not to mention the better communication among those countnes．For China，such a project would not only connect it with the rest of Asia and bring some much-needed resources，but would also help develop China’s far west．We foresee that in the coming decades，millions of people will migrate to the western regions，where the land is empty and resources unused．With high-speed trains，people will set up factories and business centers in the west once and for a11．And they’11 trade with Central Asian and Eastern European countries．67．China’s new high-speed railway plan will be a win-win project because ．A．China will get much-needed resources and develop its western regionsB．China and the countries involved will benefit from the project in various waysC．China will develop its railway system and communication with other countriesD． the foreign countries involved will develop their railway transportation，business and tourism

资料：In the United States of America, banks are categorized into the federally-chartered bank which received their charter from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency（OCC）; these are referred to as “National Banks”; and also the states-chartered banks which receive their charter from the superintendent to as “State Banks”. Banks are allowed to register either with the federal or the state authority. Let us now look at the organizational structure of Commercial Banks, which include unit banking, group banking and branch banking.
The main characteristic of unit banking is that it can operate only a single full service bank from a single location. Unit banking institutions are not allowed to have branch networks. However, unit banking does not necessarily have to be small. In fact, many unit banks are quite large.
Group banking refers to banking operations conducted by a corporation owning more than one bank. The group banking system usually exists in the states where branch banking is prohibited.
As for branching, it is sometimes referred to “limited branching” or “stateside branching”. Limited branching allows bank to operate branches within geographic territories authorized by the state law. Stateside branching implies that bank branches are allowed to operate anywhere within the state. New York State, California, Florida and some others are stateside branch banking areas which Minnesota, Arkansas, lower and others are limited branching areas.
In the United States, there are also specialized banks including the Edge Act Banks, the international Banking Facility, the bankers’ banks, the saving banks, the savings and loans associations, the credit unions and government owned and the Real Estate Investment Trust （TEIT）.
There are also non-bank financial institutions in the USA, including the securities firms, the leasing and commercial finance companies, the mortgage bankers and the Real Estate Investment Trust （REIT）.
Let us now look at the Federal System. Commonly known as the Federal Reserve Bank or the “Fed”, this is the Central Bank of the United States founded in 1913. It determines the reserve requirement within limits set by the US Congress. The function of the Fed is economic stabilization through the management of the nation’s money supply. The Federal Reserve System comprises a board of governors with 7 members stationed in Washington D.C Reserve Banks, including Boston，New York City, Dallas and San Francisco.
The Federal Reserve Act（FRA）1913 set out the powers of the Fed which, on top of the regular central bank’s objectives, emphasize the following.
i.Managing the monetary system and money supply of the USA;
ii.Providing funds as the lender of last report;
iii.Providing for an efficient cherub clearing system;
iiii.Providing a rigorous banking supervision system.
Which of the following is not true?（ ）
A.National Banks in the USA refers to “State Banks”.
B.The group banking system usually exists in the states where branch banking is prohibited.
C.Stateside branching implies that bank branches are allowed to operate anywhere within the state.
D.Limited branching allows bank to operate branches within geographic territories authorized by the state law.

第三篇Swiss BanksSince the early 1930s,Swiss banks had prided themselves on their system of banking secrecy and numbered accounts.Over the years,they had successfully withstood every challenge to this system by their own government who, in turn,had been frequently urged by foreign governments to reveal information about the financial affairs of certain account holders.The result of this policy of secrecy was that a kind of mystique had grown up around Swiss banking. There was a widely-held belief that Switzerland was irresistible to wealthy foreigners,mainly because of its numbered accounts and bankers' reluctance to ask awkward questions of depositors.Contributing to the mystique was theview,carefully propagated by the banks themselves,that if this secret was ever given up,foreigners would fall over themselves in the rush to withdraw money,and the Swiss banking system would virtually collapse overnight.To many,therefore,it came like a bolt out of the blue,when,in 1977,the Swiss banks announced they had signed a pact with the Swiss National Bank(the Central Bank).The aim of the agreement was to prevent the improper use of the country's bank secrecy laws, and its effect to curb （遏制）severely the system of secrecy.The rules which the banks had agreed to observe made the opening of numbered accounts subject to much closer scrutiny than before.The banks would be required,if necessary,to identify the origin of foreign fund going into numbered and other accounts.The idea was to stop such accounts being used for dubious（可疑的）purposes.Also,they agreed not to accept funds resulting from tax evasion or from crime.The pact represented essentially a tightening up of banking rules.Although the banks agreed to end relations with clients whose identities were unclear or who were performing improper acts,they were still not obliged to inform on a client to anyone,including the Swiss government.To some extent,therefore,the principle of secrecy had been maintained.Swiss banks are tightening its banking rules by________.A:examining the origin of foreign funds before going into accountsB:preventing doubtful accounts from going into the bankC:refusal of funds from crimes or tax evasionsD:all of the above
