Pat Brown went to her bank to ask for an ATM card.It looks like a credit card.A few weeks later, the bank posted her a card and a four-number personal identification number(PIN).Her PIN is 1234.
As Pat was getting ready for bed one night, she remembered that she had $2 in her bag.The next day she had to give $10 for a lunch for a co-worker.She didn’t want to get up early to go to the bank.So she had to go to the bank at night.She used her ATM card to withdraw(take out)$50 from her checking account(现金帐户).
These are the steps she followed to withdraw money.First, she put her card in the lower slot (狭孔)on the right side of the machine.She made sure her card was facing the right way.Second, the computer screen said, “Please enter(put in)your PIN.” Pat pressed(按)the number 1,2,3, and 4.next, the screen said, “Please select type of transaction(交易)you want by press other keys.” Pat pressed the bottom key for withdrawing money.
Then the screen said, “From which account?” The choices it gave were Checking, Savings, and Money Market.Pat pressed the key for checking.Next, the screen said, “Please choose amount of transaction.” Pat pushed the number 5 and then 0 three times, until the screen read, “50.00”.The screen then read, “Please wait”.In less than a minute, it read, “Please put up the lid and take your money.”
Pat lifts the lid marked Withdraw.She counted her $50 to make sure the ATM hadn’t made a mistake.Then she waited for her withdraw slip to come out of the slot at the upper right corner of the machine.Pat checked the slip to make sure it was correct.Then her ATM card was returned through the card slot.She put it in her bag and walked away.If Pat had made a mistake at any point by pressing the wrong button, she could have pressed Cancel and started over again.
Steve Jobs, co-founder and former CEO of US technology giant Apple, has died at the age of 56. Mr Jobs had announced he was suffering from cancer in 2004. Apple said he had been "the source of countless innovations(创新)that enrich and improve all of our lives" and had made the world "immeasurably(无法衡量的)better".
Tributes(赞美之辞) have been made by technology company bosses and world leaders, with US President Barack Obama saying the world had "lost a visionary(有远见卓识的人)". "Steve was among the greatest of American innovators —— brave enough to think differently, bold enough to believe he could change the world, and talented enough to do it," said Mr Obama.
A statement from Mr Jobs's family said they were with him when he died peacefully on Wednesday. "In his public life, Steve was known as a visionary; in his private life, he loved his family deeply," they said, requesting privacy and thanking those who had "shared their wishes and prayers" during his final year.
Apple said the company had "lost a visionary and creative genius(天才) and the world have lost an amazing human being". Tim Cook, who was made Apple's CEO after Mr Jobs stood down in August, said his predecessor had left behind "a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple". Flags are being flown at half mast outside the Apple headquarters(总部) in Cupertino, California, while fans of the company have left tributes outside Apple shops around the world.
The heads of other leading technology companies have also paid tribute, including Microsoft boss Bill Gates, who said "For those of us lucky enough to get to work with him, it's been a great honour. I will miss Steve very much."
Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg thanks Mr Jobs for "showing that what you build can change the world" while Sony Corp president and CEO Howard Stringer said: "The digital age has lost its leading light." South Korea's Samsung, which is involved in a case with Apple over patents(专利), admired Mr Jobs for his "Completely new and different changes to the IT industry".
