讲解：

1. 对话中Sam想要开一个银行账户，在询问营业员该如何办理。营业员问，你想开一个什么类型的账户，What sort of account did you have in mind?，就像我们在第一部分里说的，银行的账户又很多种类型，开之前一定要想清楚。

2. Sam说想开一个活期账户来支付账单，就是checking account，也可以说current account 。这个过程比较复杂，我们来一句一句的解释。营业员告诉Sam比如说你有一张工资支票或者奖学金支票，就是You get a paycheck or a scholarship check made out to you, 支票上注明了你应得的现金数额，比如说是2500美元吧，with the amount due to you, say $ 2,500.

3. 然后在支票的背面签上你的名字并注明“只要储蓄”的字样，支票就存入你的账户了。You sign your name on the back of the check, mark it "for deposit only" and deposit in your account. 这样做是因为即使把支票弄丢了，也没人能把它兑现。so no one can cash the check if you lose it。你可以通过邮寄的形式办理存款手续，也可以在银行营业时间亲自来办理。或者一天24小时中的任何时间都可以在自动提款机上办理手续，看来真的是很简单啊。

4. Sam也这样认为，开户之后Sam就可以开支票给房东支付房租，付水电煤气费等等。Sam都听明白了，他说I'm with you so far. 这在口语当中挺常用的，比如在上课的时候，老师会问，Are you still with me? 你们听明白我讲的了吗？营业员建议Sam一定要在支票记录簿上记下所有的账目，让后把账目加一加，在从结余额中间去减去那些支出。account balance. 就是账户结余，余额。

5. 如果签错了的话，支票被拒付而退还给开票人是要额外的费用的。所以一定要看仔细了。bounce a check，就是拒付支票。一般情况下，如果储户是第一次在该银行办理开户手续，营业员都会做很详细的解说，所以大家不要心慌，只要认真按他说的步骤来进行就可以了。。
