Welcome back, friends.
Today we are going to play a game called I Know It!
I Know It!
Do You Know It?
Well, we'll see if you know it.
I will talk about one of today's key words.
You need to tell me which one I'm talking about.
Let's go.
This key word is used when you want to take money out of a bank.
You cannot use it when you put money into a bank.
This is only when you need...
I know it!
You said that this word is when you take money out of a bank, so the word is
withdraw.
That's right.
Withdrawing money is taking it out of the bank.
Now let's review today's conversations together.
Ken, can I ask you a question?
Of course, Mark.
What is your question?
What time does West Lake Bank close?
It closes at 4 p.m. I think.
But I'm not sure.
You can call them.
Do you know their number?
No. But you can find it online.
Their hours may be online, too.
Thanks.
I borrowed money from Megan last week.
I must go to the bank today.
Then I can pay her back.
So you have an account at West Lake Bank?
Yes.
I opened one last month.
Why don't you use an ATM?
There is one at the convenience store.
I can't.
I don't have my ATM card with me.
It's at home.
Then just go to the bank.
I like the tellers there.
Me, too.
They are very helpful.
Do you know your account number?
Yes. I memorized it.
And I have it here, too.
That's good!
I can withdraw some money for Megan and some money for me.
So I have money for coffee.
Hey, Monkey Man.
What are you doing?
Online banking.
Ooh.
Online banking is very convenient.
It is convenient.
It saves time and money.
Yeah. You can withdraw money.
Mmhm. And I can check my balance.
Yeah. Maybe you'll even get a free pen.
That would be very cool.
Yeah.
But you know, Ginger, before I go to the bank online, I want to check a local
coffee shop.
You do?
Yeah!
Look! I just ordered a hot cup of coffee.
Wow.
Yeah. It smells great, right?
Yeah! Online drinking.
Mmm.
Ooh.
You want a sip?
Hello.

Calendar Phrase.

Can you give me $20?
I can pay you back.
OK. When will you pay me back?

(Chinese).
Now it's time to answer it!
Let's look at question one.
Why does Mark like the tellers at the bank?
Why does Mark like the tellers at the bank?
You can find the answer in Conversation C.
Because they are helpful.
Question two.
Why do you go to the bank?
Why do you go to the bank?
Let's hear some answers from our friends.
Do I go to the bank?
I go to the bank to get money out of my account.
I use the money to buy food or things we need at our house.
Sometimes I use the money to buy a gift for my daughter Katie that lives in
Taipei.
I also go to the bank to put money into my account for saving.
The bank is a good place to keep your money.
Why do I go to the bank?
Sometimes I go to the bank to take money out.
Sometimes I go to the bank to put money in.
It's a very good way for me to keep track of how much money I have.
If I'm going to take a trip soon, I like to go to the bank to get money for the
country that I'm going to visit.
It's very fast and very easy.
I like going to the bank.
Why do I go to the bank?
I go to the bank to send money home to my son for college.
You see, it feels better for me.
It may not be better, but it's better for me.
And also, a good friend of mine is the manager of that bank.
And he and his wife come over for dinner quite a bit.
So I get a chance to talk to them about different things.
So it's not just going to the bank I like, it's seeing my friend there at the
bank.
Why do I go to the bank?
Well, that's easy.
Sometimes I have extra cash, extra money and I want to put that money in the
bank.
So I go and deposit that money.
Other times I don't have enough cash, so I go to withdraw money from the bank.
And sometimes I go because I enjoy talking to the people at the bank.
They're so much fun.
That's all the time that we have for today.
We hope that you've learned something and that we see you next time here on...
Let's Talk in English. Goodbye.
