As many as one thousand years ago in the Southwest, the Hopi and Zuni indians of North america were building with adobe – sun-baked brick plastered with mud. There homes looked remarkably like modern apartement houses some were four stories high and contained quartersfor perhaps thousand people. Along with store rooms for grain and other goods. This building were usually put up against cliffs, both to make construction easier and for defense against enemies. They were really villages in them selves as later spanish explorers must have realized since they called them “pueblos”, which is spanish for towns.
The people of the pueblos raised what are called ”the three sister”—corn, beans, and squash. They made excellent pottery and wove marvelous baskets, some so fine that they could hold water. The Southwest has always been a dry country, where water is scarce. The Hopi and Zuni brought water from streams to their fields and gardens through irrigation ditches. Water was so important that it played a major role in their religion. They developed elaborate ceremonies and religious rituals to bring rain.
The way of life of les-settled groups was simpler and more strongly influenced by nature. Small tribes such as the Shosone and Ute wandered the dry and mountainous lands between the Rocky Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. They gathered seeds and hunted seals, walruses, ang the great whales. They lived right on the frozen seas in shelters called igloos built of blocks of packed snow. When summer came, they fished for salmon and hunted the lordly caribou.
The Cheyenne, Pawnee, and Sioux tribes, known as the Plains Indians, lived on the grassland between the Rocky Mountains and the Mississippi River. They hunted bison, commonly called the buffalo. Its meat was the chief food of these tribes, and its hide was used to make their clothing and the covering of their tents and tipis.

Marianne Moore (1887-1972) once said that her writting could be called poetry only because there was no other name for it. Indeed her poems appear to be extremely compressed essays that happen to be printed in jagged lines on the page. Her subjects were varied: animals, labores, artist, and the craft of poetry. From her general reading came quotations that she found striking or insightful. She included these in her poems, scrupulously enclosed in quotation marks and sometimes identified in footnotes. Of this practice, she wrote, “ ‘why the many quotation marks?’ I am asked. . . when a thing has been said so well that it could not be said better, why paraphrase it?Hence my writting is, if not a cabinet of fossils, a kind of collection of flies in amber.” Close observation and consentration on detail are the methods of her poetry.
Marianne Moore grew up in kirkwood, Missouri, near St. Louis. After graduation from Bryn Mawr College in 1909, she taught commercial subjects at the Indian school in Carlisle, Pennsylvannia. Later she became a librarian in New York City. During the 1920’s she was editor of The Dial, an importan literary magazine of the period. She lived quietly all her life, mostly in Brooklyn, New York. She spent a lot of time at the Bronx Zoo, fascinated by animals. Her admiration of the Brooklyn Dodgers – before the team moved to Los Angeles- was widely known.
Her first book of poems was published in London in 1921 by a group of friends associeted with the imagist movement. From that time on her poetry has been read with interest by succeeding generations of poets and readers. In 1952 she was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for her Collected Poems. She wrote that she did not write poetry “for money or fame. To earn a living is needful, but it can be done in routine ways. One writes because one has a burning desire to objectivy what it is indispensable to one’s happiness to express...”

Questions 23-30
What makes it rain?Rain falls from clouds the same reason anything falls to Earth. The Earth’s gravity pulls it. But every cloud is made of water droplets or ice crystals. Why doesn’t rain or snow fall constantly from all clouds? The droplets or ice crystals in clouds are exceedingly small. The effect of gravity in them is minute. Air currents move and lift droplets so that the net down ward displacement is zero, even though the droplets are in constant motion.
Droplets and ice crystals behave somewhat like dust in the air made visible in a shaft of sunlight. To the casual observer, dust seems to act in a totally random fashion, moving about chaotically without fixed direction. But in fact dust particles are much larger than water droplets and they finally fall. The average size of a cloud droplest is only 0,004 inch in diameter. It is so small that it would take sixteen hours to fall half a mile in perfectly still air,and it does not fall out of moving air at all. Only when the droplet grows to a diameter of 0,008 inch or larger can it fall from the cloud. The average raindrop contains a million times as much water as a tiny cloud droplet. The growth of a cloud to a size large enough to fall out is the cause of rain and other forms of precipitation. This important growth is called” coalescence”.
23. What is the main topic of the passage?
(A) the mechanics of rain
B the weather patterns of North America

26. Ice crystals do not immediately fall to Earth because,
(A) ~ they are kept aloft by air currents
B they combine with other chemicals in the atmosphere
C most of them evaporate
D their electrical charges draw them away from the earth.
27. The word “ random “in line 7 is closest in meaning to..
(A) Unpredictable
B Perplexing
C Independent
D abnormal
28. what can be inferred about drops of water larger than 0,008 inch in diameter?
A they never occur
B they are not affected by the force of gravity
(C) in still air they would fall to earth.
D in moving air they fall at a speed of thirty-two miles per hour.

D the movement of dust particles in the sunlight
Questions 31-40
People appear to be born to compute. The numerical skills of children develop so early and so inexorably that it is easy to imagine an internal clock of mathematical maturity guiding their growth. Not long after learning to walk and talk, they can set the table with impressive accuracy – one plate, one knife,one spoon, one fork, for each of the five chairs. Soon they are capable of nothing that they have placed five knives, spoons, and forks on the table and, a bit later, that this amounts to fivteen pieces of silverware. Having thus mastered addition, they move on to subtraction. It seems almost reasonable to expect that if a child were secluded on a desert island at birth and retrevied seven years later, he or she could enter a second – grade mathematics class without any serious problems of intellectual adjusment.
Of course, the truth is not so simple. This century, the work of cognitive psychologists has illuminated the subtle forms of daily learning on which intellectual progress depends. Children were observed as they slowly grasped-or, as the case might be, bumped into-concept that adults take for granted, as they refused, for instance, to concede that quantity is unchanged as water pours from q short stout glass into a tall thin one. Psychologists have since demonstrated that young children asked to count the pencils in a pile, readily report the number of blue or red pencils, but must be coaxed into finding the total. Such studies have suggested that the rudiments if mathematics are mastered gradually, and with effort. They have also suggested that the very concept of abstract numbers- the idea of oneness, a twoness, a threeness taht applies to any class of objects and is a prerequisite for doing anything more mathematically demanding than setting a table- is itself from innate.
31. what does the passage mainly discuss?
A trends in teaching mathematics to children.
B the use of mathematics in child psychology
(C) the development mathematical ability in children
D the fundamental concepts of mathematic that children must learn.
32. it can be inferred from the passage that children normally learn simple counting?
(A) soon after they learn to talk
B by looking at the clock
C when they begin to be mathematically mature
D after they reach second grade in school.
33. the word “ illuminated “ in line 11 is closests in meaning to..
A illustrated
B accepted
(C) clarified
D lighted
34. the author implies that most small children believe that the quantity of water changes when it is transfered to a container of a different..
A color
B quality
C weight
(D) shape
35. According to the passage , when small children were asked to count a pile of red and blue pencils they..
(A) counted the number of pencils of each color.
B guessed at the total number of pencils.
C counted only the pencils of their favorite color.
D subtracted the number of red pencil from the number of blue pencils.
36. the word “ they “ in line 17 refers to

B children
C pencils
(D) studies
37. the word “ prerequisite “ in line 19 is closest in meanin g to..

A children naturally and easily learn mathematics.
(B) children learn to add before they learn to subtract

(A) lines 3-6
B lines 7-9
C lines 11-14
D lines 17-20
Questions 41-50
Botany, the study of plants,occupies a peculiar position in the history of human knowledge. For many thousands of years it was the one field of awareness about which humans had anything more than the vaguest of insights. It is impossible to know today just what our Stone Age ancestors knew about plants, but from what we can observe of preindustrial societies that still exists, a detailed learning of plants and their properties must be extremely ancient. This is logical. Plants are the basis of the food piramid for all living things, even for other plants. They have always been enormously important to the welfare of people, not only for food, but also for clothing, weapons, tools,dyes,medicines,shelter,and a great many other purpose. Tribes living today in the jungles of the Amazon recognize literally hundreds of plants and know many properties of each. To them botany,as such,has no name and is probably not even recognized as a special branch of “ knowledge” at all.
Unfortunately, the more industrialized we become the farther away we move from direct contact with plants, and the list distinct our knowledge of botany grows. Yet everyone comes unconsciously on an amazing amount of botanical knowledge, and few people will file to recognize a rose,an apple,or an orchid. When our Neolithic ancestors, living in the Middle East about 10.000years ago, discovered that certain grasses couls be harvested and their seeds planted for richers yields the next season, the first great step in a new association of plants and humans was taken. Grains were discovered and from them flowed the marvel of agriculture : cultivated crops. From then on, humans would increasingly take their living from the controlled production of a few plants, rather than getting a little here and a little their from many varieties that grew wild- and the acculumulated knowledge of tens of thousands of years of experience and intimacy with plants in the wile would begin to fade away.
41. which of the following assumptions about early humans expressed in the passage?
A they probably had extensive knowledge of plants
(B) ~ they divided knowledge into well-defined fields
C they did not enjoy the study of botany
D they placed great importance on ownership of property
42. the word “ peculiar” in line 1 is closest in meaning to ...
A clear
B large
(C) unusual
D important
43. what does the comment “ this is logical” in lines 5-6 mean?
A there is no clear way to determine the extent of our ancestors knowledge of plants
B it is not suprising that early humans had a detailed knowldege of plants
(C) it is reasonable to assume that our ancestors behaved very much like people in preindustrial societies
D human knowledge of plants is well organized and very detailed.
44. the phrase “properties of each” in line 10 refers to each..
A tribe
B hundred
(C) plant
D purpose
45. according to the passage,why has general knowledge of botany declined?
A people no lorger value plants as a useful resource
(B) botany is not recognized as a special branch of science
C research is unable to keep up with the increasing number of plants
D direct contact with a variety of plants has decreased
46. in line 15, what is the author’s purpose in mentioning a rose,an apple,or an orchid”?
A to make the passage more poetic
B to cite examples of plants that are attractive
(C) to give botanical examples that most readers will recognize
D to illustrate the diversity of botanical life.
47. according to the passage, what was the first great step toward the practise of agriculture?
A the envention of agricultural implements and machinery

As many as one thousand years ago in the Southwest, the Hopi and Zuni indians of North america were building with adobe – sun-baked brick plastered with mud. There homes looked remarkably like modern apartement houses some were four stories high and contained quartersfor perhaps thousand people. Along with store rooms for grain and other goods. This building were usually put up against cliffs, both to make construction easier and for defense against enemies. They were really villages in them selves as later spanish explorers must have realized since they called them “pueblos”, which is spanish for towns.
The people of the pueblos raised what are called ”the three sister”—corn, beans, and squash. They made excellent pottery and wove marvelous baskets, some so fine that they could hold water. The Southwest has always been a dry country, where water is scarce. The Hopi and Zuni brought water from streams to their fields and gardens through irrigation ditches. Water was so important that it played a major role in their religion. They developed elaborate ceremonies and religious rituals to bring rain.
The way of life of les-settled groups was simpler and more strongly influenced by nature. Small tribes such as the Shosone and Ute wandered the dry and mountainous lands between the Rocky Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. They gathered seeds and hunted seals, walruses, ang the great whales. They lived right on the frozen seas in shelters called igloos built of blocks of packed snow. When summer came, they fished for salmon and hunted the lordly caribou.
The Cheyenne, Pawnee, and Sioux tribes, known as the Plains Indians, lived on the grassland between the Rocky Mountains and the Mississippi River. They hunted bison, commonly called the buffalo. Its meat was the chief food of these tribes, and its hide was used to make their clothing and the covering of their tents and tipis.

Marianne Moore (1887-1972) once said that her writting could be called poetry only because there was no other name for it. Indeed her poems appear to be extremely compressed essays that happen to be printed in jagged lines on the page. Her subjects were varied: animals, labores, artist, and the craft of poetry. From her general reading came quotations that she found striking or insightful. She included these in her poems, scrupulously enclosed in quotation marks and sometimes identified in footnotes. Of this practice, she wrote, “ ‘why the many quotation marks?’ I am asked. . . when a thing has been said so well that it could not be said better, why paraphrase it?Hence my writting is, if not a cabinet of fossils, a kind of collection of flies in amber.” Close observation and consentration on detail are the methods of her poetry.
Marianne Moore grew up in kirkwood, Missouri, near St. Louis. After graduation from Bryn Mawr College in 1909, she taught commercial subjects at the Indian school in Carlisle, Pennsylvannia. Later she became a librarian in New York City. During the 1920’s she was editor of The Dial, an importan literary magazine of the period. She lived quietly all her life, mostly in Brooklyn, New York. She spent a lot of time at the Bronx Zoo, fascinated by animals. Her admiration of the Brooklyn Dodgers – before the team moved to Los Angeles- was widely known.
Her first book of poems was published in London in 1921 by a group of friends associeted with the imagist movement. From that time on her poetry has been read with interest by succeeding generations of poets and readers. In 1952 she was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for her Collected Poems. She wrote that she did not write poetry “for money or fame. To earn a living is needful, but it can be done in routine ways. One writes because one has a burning desire to objectivy what it is indispensable to one’s happiness to express...”

Questions 23-30
What makes it rain?Rain falls from clouds the same reason anything falls to Earth. The Earth’s gravity pulls it. But every cloud is made of water droplets or ice crystals. Why doesn’t rain or snow fall constantly from all clouds? The droplets or ice crystals in clouds are exceedingly small. The effect of gravity in them is minute. Air currents move and lift droplets so that the net down ward displacement is zero, even though the droplets are in constant motion.
Droplets and ice crystals behave somewhat like dust in the air made visible in a shaft of sunlight. To the casual observer, dust seems to act in a totally random fashion, moving about chaotically without fixed direction. But in fact dust particles are much larger than water droplets and they finally fall. The average size of a cloud droplest is only 0,004 inch in diameter. It is so small that it would take sixteen hours to fall half a mile in perfectly still air,and it does not fall out of moving air at all. Only when the droplet grows to a diameter of 0,008 inch or larger can it fall from the cloud. The average raindrop contains a million times as much water as a tiny cloud droplet. The growth of a cloud to a size large enough to fall out is the cause of rain and other forms of precipitation. This important growth is called” coalescence”.

Questions 31-40
People appear to be born to compute. The numerical skills of children develop so early and so inexorably that it is easy to imagine an internal clock of mathematical maturity guiding their growth. Not long after learning to walk and talk, they can set the table with impressive accuracy – one plate, one knife,one spoon, one fork, for each of the five chairs. Soon they are capable of nothing that they have placed five knives, spoons, and forks on the table and, a bit later, that this amounts to fivteen pieces of silverware. Having thus mastered addition, they move on to subtraction. It seems almost reasonable to expect that if a child were secluded on a desert island at birth and retrevied seven years later, he or she could enter a second – grade mathematics class without any serious problems of intellectual adjusment.
Of course, the truth is not so simple. This century, the work of cognitive psychologists has illuminated the subtle forms of daily learning on which intellectual progress depends. Children were observed as they slowly grasped-or, as the case might be, bumped into-concept that adults take for granted, as they refused, for instance, to concede that quantity is unchanged as water pours from q short stout glass into a tall thin one. Psychologists have since demonstrated that young children asked to count the pencils in a pile, readily report the number of blue or red pencils, but must be coaxed into finding the total. Such studies have suggested that the rudiments if mathematics are mastered gradually, and with effort. They have also suggested that the very concept of abstract numbers- the idea of oneness, a twoness, a threeness taht applies to any class of objects and is a prerequisite for doing anything more mathematically demanding than setting a table- is itself from innate.
31. what does the passage mainly discuss?
A trends in teaching mathematics to children.
B the use of mathematics in child psychology
(C) the development mathematical ability in children

D after they reach second grade in school.

Questions 41-50
Botany, the study of plants,occupies a peculiar position in the history of human knowledge. For many thousands of years it was the one field of awareness about which humans had anything more than the vaguest of insights. It is impossible to know today just what our Stone Age ancestors knew about plants, but from what we can observe of preindustrial societies that still exists, a detailed learning of plants and their properties must be extremely ancient. This is logical. Plants are the basis of the food piramid for all living things, even for other plants. They have always been enormously important to the welfare of people, not only for food, but also for clothing, weapons, tools,dyes,medicines,shelter,and a great many other purpose. Tribes living today in the jungles of the Amazon recognize literally hundreds of plants and know many properties of each. To them botany,as such,has no name and is probably not even recognized as a special branch of “ knowledge” at all.
Unfortunately, the more industrialized we become the farther away we move from direct contact with plants, and the list distinct our knowledge of botany grows. Yet everyone comes unconsciously on an amazing amount of botanical knowledge, and few people will file to recognize a rose,an apple,or an orchid. When our Neolithic ancestors, living in the Middle East about 10.000years ago, discovered that certain grasses couls be harvested and their seeds planted for richers yields the next season, the first great step in a new association of plants and humans was taken. Grains were discovered and from them flowed the marvel of agriculture : cultivated crops. From then on, humans would increasingly take their living from the controlled production of a few plants, rather than getting a little here and a little their from many varieties that grew wild- and the acculumulated knowledge of tens of thousands of years of experience and intimacy with plants in the wile would begin to fade away.
41. which of the following assumptions about early humans expressed in the passage?
A they probably had extensive knowledge of plants
(B) ~ they divided knowledge into well-defined fields
C they did not enjoy the study of botany
D they placed great importance on ownership of property
42. the word “ peculiar” in line 1 is closest in meaning to ...
A clear
B large
(C) unusual
D important
43. what does the comment “ this is logical” in lines 5-6 mean?
A there is no clear way to determine the extent of our ancestors knowledge of plants
B it is not suprising that early humans had a detailed knowldege of plants
(C) it is reasonable to assume that our ancestors behaved very much like people in preindustrial societies
D human knowledge of plants is well organized and very detailed.
44. the phrase “properties of each” in line 10 refers to each..
A tribe
B hundred
(C) plant
D purpose
45. according to the passage,why has general knowledge of botany declined?
A people no lorger value plants as a useful resource
(B) botany is not recognized as a special branch of science
C research is unable to keep up with the increasing number of plants
D direct contact with a variety of plants has decreased
46. in line 15, what is the author’s purpose in mentioning a rose,an apple,or an orchid”?
A to make the passage more poetic

MODAL AUXILIARY
MODAL AUXILIARY
Helping verbs or auxiliary verbs such as will, shall, may, might, can, could, must, ought to, should, would, used to, need are used in conjunction with main verbs to express shades of time and mood. The combination of helping verbs with main verbs creates what are called verb phrases or verb strings. In the following sentence, "will have been" are helping or auxiliary verbs and "studying" is the main verb; the whole verb string is underlined:
• As of next August, I will have been studying chemistry for ten years.
Students should remember that adverbs and contracted forms are not, technically, part of the verb. In the sentence, "He has already started." the adverb already modifies the verb, but it is not really part of the verb. The same is true of the 'nt in "He hasn't started yet" (the adverb not, represented by the contracted n't, is not part of the verb, has started).
Shall, will and forms of have, do and be combine with main verbs to indicate time and voice. As auxiliaries, the verbs be, have and do can change form to indicate changes in subject and time.
• I shall go now.
• He had won the election.
• They did write that novel together.
• I am going now.
• He was winning the election.
• They have been writing that novel for a long time.
Uses of Shall and Will and Should
In England, shall is used to express the simple future for first person I and we, as in "Shall we meet by the river?" Will would be used in the simple future for all other persons. Using will in the first person would express determination on the part of the speaker, as in "We will finish this project by tonight, by golly!" Using shall in second and third persons would indicate some kind of promise about the subject, as in "This shall be revealed to you in good time." This usage is certainly acceptable in the U.S., although shall is used far less frequently. The distinction between the two is often obscured by the contraction 'll, which is the same for both verbs.
In the United States, we seldom use shall for anything other than polite questions (suggesting an element of permission) in the first-person:
• "Shall we go now?"
• "Shall I call a doctor for you?"
(In the second sentence, many writers would use should instead, although should is somewhat more tentative than shall.) In the U.S., to express the future tense, the verb will is used in all other cases.
Shall is often used in formal situations (legal or legalistic documents, minutes to meetings, etc.) to express obligation, even with third-person and second-person constructions:
• The board of directors shall be responsible for payment to stockholders.
• The college president shall report financial shortfalls to the executive director each semester."
Should is usually replaced, nowadays, by would. It is still used, however, to mean "ought to" as in
• You really shouldn't do that.
• If you think that was amazing, you should have seen it last night.
In British English and very formal American English, one is apt to hear or read should with the first-person pronouns in expressions of liking such as "I should prefer iced tea" and in tentative expressions of opinion such as
• I should imagine they'll vote Conservative.
• I should have thought so.
(The New Fowler's Modern English Usage edited by R.W. Burchfield. Clarendon Press: Oxford, England. 1996. Used with the permission of Oxford University Press. Examples our own.)
Uses of Do, Does and Did
In the simple present tense, do will function as an auxiliary to express the negative and to ask questions. (Does, however, is substituted for third-person, singular subjects in the present tense. The past tense did works with all persons, singular and plural.)
• I don't study at night.
• She doesn't work here anymore.
• Do you attend this school?
• Does he work here?
These verbs also work as "short answers," with the main verb omitted.
• Does she work here? No, she doesn't work here.
With "yes-no" questions, the form of do goes in front of the subject and the main verb comes after the subject:
• Did your grandmother know Truman?
• Do wildflowers grow in your back yard?
Forms of do are useful in expressing similarity and differences in conjunction with so and neither.
• My wife hates spinach and so does my son.
• My wife doesn't like spinach; neither do I.
Do is also helpful because it means you don't have to repeat the verb:
• Larry excelled in language studies; so did his brother.
• Raoul studies as hard as his sister does.
The so-called emphatic do has many uses in English.
a. To add emphasis to an entire sentence: "He does like spinach. He really does!"
b. To add emphasis to an imperative: "Do come in." (actually softens the command)
c. To add emphasis to a frequency adverb: "He never did understand his father." "She always does manage to hurt her mother's feelings."
d. To contradict a negative statement: "You didn't do your homework, did you?" "Oh, but I did finish it."
e. To ask a clarifying question about a previous negative statement: "Ridwell didn't take the tools." "Then who did take the tools?"
f. To indicate a strong concession: "Although the Clintons denied any wrong-doing, they did return some of the gifts."
In the absence of other modal auxiliaries, a form of do is used in question and negative constructions known as the get passive:
• Did Rinaldo get selected by the committee?
• The audience didn't get riled up by the politician.
Based on descriptions in Grammar Dimensions: Form, Meaning, and Use 2nd Ed. by Jan Frodesen and Janet Eyring. Heinle & Heinle: Boston. 1997. Examples our own. Uses of Have, Has and Had
Forms of the verb to have are used to create tenses known as the present perfect and past perfect. The perfect tenses indicate that something has happened in the past; the present perfect indicating that something happened and might be continuing to happen, the past perfect indicating that something happened prior to something else happening. (That sounds worse than it really is!) See the section on Verb Tenses in the Active Voice for further explanation; also review material in the Directory of English Tenses.
To have is also in combination with other modal verbs to express probability and possibility in the past.
• As an affirmative statement, to have can express how certain you are that something happened (when combined with an appropriate modal + have + a past participle): "Georgia must have left already." "Clinton might have known about the gifts." "They may have voted already."
• As a negative statement, a modal is combined with not + have + a past participle to express how certain you are that something did not happen: "Clinton might not have known about the gifts." "I may not have been there at the time of the crime."
• To ask about possibility or probability in the past, a modal is combined with the subject + have + past participle: "Could Clinton have known about the gifts?"
• For short answers, a modal is combined with have: "Did Clinton know about this?" "I don't know. He may have." "The evidence is pretty positive. He must have."
To have (sometimes combined with to get) is used to express a logical inference:
• It's been raining all week; the basement has to be flooded by now.
• He hit his head on the doorway. He has got to be over seven feet tall!
Have is often combined with an infinitive to form an auxiliary whose meaning is similar to "must."
• I have to have a car like that!
• She has to pay her own tuition at college.
• He has to have been the first student to try that.
Based on the analysis in Grammar Dimensions: Form, Meaning, and Use 2nd Ed. by Jan Frodesen and Janet Eyring. Heinle & Heinle: Boston. 1997. Examples our own.
Modal Auxiliaries
Other helping verbs, called modal auxiliaries or modals, such as can, could, may, might, must, ought to, shall, should, will, and would, do not change form for different subjects. For instance, try substituting any of these modal auxiliaries for can with any of the subjects listed below.
I
you (singular)
he
we
you (plural)
they can write well.
There is also a separate section on the Modal Auxiliaries, which divides these verbs into their various meanings of necessity, advice, ability, expectation, permission, possibility, etc., and provides sample sentences in various tenses. See the section on Conditional Verb Forms for help with the modal auxiliary would. The shades of meaning among modal auxiliaries are multifarious and complex. Most English-as-a-Second-Language textbooks will contain at least one chapter on their usage. For more advanced students, A University Grammar of English, by Randolph Quirk and Sidney Greenbaum, contains an excellent, extensive analysis of modal auxiliaries.
The analysis of Modal Auxiliaries is based on a similar analysis in The Scott, Foresman Handbook for Writers by Maxine Hairston and John J. Ruszkiewicz. 4th ed. HarperCollins: New York. 1996. The description of helping verbs on this page is based on The Little, Brown Handbook by H. Ramsay Fowler and Jane E. Aaron, & Kay Limburg. 6th ed. HarperCollins: New York. 1995. By permission of Addison-Wesley Educational Publishers Inc. Examples in all cases are our own.
Uses of Can and Could
The modal auxiliary can is used
• to express ability (in the sense of being able to do something or knowing how to do something):
He can speak Spanish but he can't write it very well.
• to expression permission (in the sense of being allowed or permitted do something):
Can I talk to my friends in the library waiting room? (Note that can is less formal than may. Also, some writers will object to the use of can in this context.)
• to express theoretical possibility:
American automobile makers can make better cars if they think there's a profit in it.
The modal auxiliary could is used
• to express an ability in the past:
I could always beat you at tennis when we were kids.
• to express past or future permission:
Could I bury my cat in your back yard?
• to express present possibility:
We could always spend the afternoon just sitting around talking.
• to express possibility or ability in contingent circumstances:
If he studied harder, he could pass this course.
In expressing ability, can and could frequently also imply willingness: Can you help me with my homework? Can versus May
Whether the auxiliary verb can can be used to express permission or not — "Can I leave the room now?" ["I don't know if you can, but you may."] — depends on the level of formality of your text or situation. As Theodore Bernstein puts it in The Careful Writer, "a writer who is attentive to the proprieties will preserve the traditional distinction: can for ability or power to do something, may for permission to do it.
The question is at what level can you safely ignore the "proprieties." Merriam-Webster's Dictionary, tenth edition, says the battle is over and can can be used in virtually any situation to express or ask for permission. Most authorities, however, recommend a stricter adherence to the distinction, at least in formal situations.
Authority: The Careful Writer by Theodore Bernstein. The Free Press: New York. 1998. p. 87.
Uses of May and Might
Two of the more troublesome modal auxiliaries are may and might. When used in the context of granting or seeking permission, might is the past tense of may. Might is considerably more tentative than may.
• May I leave class early?
• If I've finished all my work and I'm really quiet, might I leave early?
In the context of expressing possibility, may and might are interchangeable present and future forms and might + have + past participle is the past form:
• She might be my advisor next semester.
• She may be my advisor next semester.
• She might have advised me not to take biology.
Avoid confusing the sense of possibility in may with the implication of might, that a hypothetical situation has not in fact occurred. For instance, let's say there's been a helicopter crash at the airport. In his initial report, before all the facts are gathered, a newscaster could say that the pilot "may have been injured." After we discover that the pilot is in fact all right, the newscaster can now say that the pilot "might have been injured" because it is a hypothetical situation that has not occurred. Another example: a body had been identified after much work by a detective. It was reported that "without this painstaking work, the body may have remained unidentified." Since the body was, in fact, identified, might is clearly called for.
Uses of Will and Would
In certain contexts, will and would are virtually interchangeable, but there are differences. Notice that the contracted form 'll is very frequently used for will.
Will can be used to express willingness:
• I'll wash the dishes if you dry.
• We're going to the movies. Will you join us?
It can also express intention (especially in the first person):
I'll do my exercises later on and prediction:
• specific: The meeting will be over soon.
• timeless: Humidity will ruin my hairdo.
• habitual: The river will overflow its banks every spring.
Would can also be used to express willingness:
• Would you please take off your hat?
It can also express insistence (rather rare, and with a strong stress on the word "would"):
• Now you've ruined everything. You would act that way.
and characteristic activity:
• customary: After work, he would walk to his home in West Hartford.
• typical (casual): She would cause the whole family to be late, every time.
In a main clause, would can express a hypothetical meaning:
• My cocker spaniel would weigh a ton if I let her eat what she wants.
Finally, would can express a sense of probability:
I hear a whistle. That would be the five o'clock train
Uses of Used to
The auxiliary verb construction used to is used to express an action that took place in the past, perhaps customarily, but now that action no longer customarily takes place:
• We used to take long vacation trips with the whole family.
The spelling of this verb is a problem for some people because the "-ed" ending quite naturally disappears in speaking: "We yoostoo take long trips." But it ought not to disappear in writing. There are exceptions, though. When the auxiliary is combined with another auxiliary, did, the past tense is carried by the new auxiliary and the "-ed" ending is dropped. This will often happen in the interrogative:
• Didn't you use to go jogging every morning before breakfast?
• It didn't use to be that way.
Used to can also be used to convey the sense of being accustomed to or familiar with something:
• The tire factory down the road really stinks, but we're used to it by now.
• I like these old sneakers; I'm used to them.
Used to is best reserved for colloquial usage; it has no place in formal or academic text.
Helping verbs or auxiliary verbs such as will, shall, may, might, can, could, must, ought to, should, would, used to, need are used in conjunction with main verbs to express shades of time and mood. The combination of helping verbs with main verbs creates what are called verb phrases or verb strings. In the following sentence, "will have been" are helping or auxiliary verbs and "studying" is the main verb; the whole verb string is underlined:
• As of next August, I will have been studying chemistry for ten years.
Students should remember that adverbs and contracted forms are not, technically, part of the verb. In the sentence, "He has already started." the adverb already modifies the verb, but it is not really part of the verb. The same is true of the 'nt in "He hasn't started yet" (the adverb not, represented by the contracted n't, is not part of the verb, has started).
Shall, will and forms of have, do and be combine with main verbs to indicate time and voice. As auxiliaries, the verbs be, have and do can change form to indicate changes in subject and time.
• I shall go now.
• He had won the election.
• They did write that novel together.
• I am going now.
• He was winning the election.
• They have been writing that novel for a long time.
Uses of Shall and Will and Should
In England, shall is used to express the simple future for first person I and we, as in "Shall we meet by the river?" Will would be used in the simple future for all other persons. Using will in the first person would express determination on the part of the speaker, as in "We will finish this project by tonight, by golly!" Using shall in second and third persons would indicate some kind of promise about the subject, as in "This shall be revealed to you in good time." This usage is certainly acceptable in the U.S., although shall is used far less frequently. The distinction between the two is often obscured by the contraction 'll, which is the same for both verbs.
In the United States, we seldom use shall for anything other than polite questions (suggesting an element of permission) in the first-person:
• "Shall we go now?"
• "Shall I call a doctor for you?"
(In the second sentence, many writers would use should instead, although should is somewhat more tentative than shall.) In the U.S., to express the future tense, the verb will is used in all other cases.
Shall is often used in formal situations (legal or legalistic documents, minutes to meetings, etc.) to express obligation, even with third-person and second-person constructions:
• The board of directors shall be responsible for payment to stockholders.
• The college president shall report financial shortfalls to the executive director each semester."
Should is usually replaced, nowadays, by would. It is still used, however, to mean "ought to" as in
• You really shouldn't do that.
• If you think that was amazing, you should have seen it last night.
In British English and very formal American English, one is apt to hear or read should with the first-person pronouns in expressions of liking such as "I should prefer iced tea" and in tentative expressions of opinion such as
• I should imagine they'll vote Conservative.
• I should have thought so.
(The New Fowler's Modern English Usage edited by R.W. Burchfield. Clarendon Press: Oxford, England. 1996. Used with the permission of Oxford University Press. Examples our own.)
Uses of Do, Does and Did
In the simple present tense, do will function as an auxiliary to express the negative and to ask questions. (Does, however, is substituted for third-person, singular subjects in the present tense. The past tense did works with all persons, singular and plural.)
• I don't study at night.
• She doesn't work here anymore.
• Do you attend this school?
• Does he work here?
These verbs also work as "short answers," with the main verb omitted.
• Does she work here? No, she doesn't work here.
With "yes-no" questions, the form of do goes in front of the subject and the main verb comes after the subject:
• Did your grandmother know Truman?
• Do wildflowers grow in your back yard?
Forms of do are useful in expressing similarity and differences in conjunction with so and neither.
• My wife hates spinach and so does my son.
• My wife doesn't like spinach; neither do I.
Do is also helpful because it means you don't have to repeat the verb:
• Larry excelled in language studies; so did his brother.
• Raoul studies as hard as his sister does.
The so-called emphatic do has many uses in English.
a. To add emphasis to an entire sentence: "He does like spinach. He really does!"
b. To add emphasis to an imperative: "Do come in." (actually softens the command)
c. To add emphasis to a frequency adverb: "He never did understand his father." "She always does manage to hurt her mother's feelings."
d. To contradict a negative statement: "You didn't do your homework, did you?" "Oh, but I did finish it."
e. To ask a clarifying question about a previous negative statement: "Ridwell didn't take the tools." "Then who did take the tools?"
f. To indicate a strong concession: "Although the Clintons denied any wrong-doing, they did return some of the gifts."
In the absence of other modal auxiliaries, a form of do is used in question and negative constructions known as the get passive:
• Did Rinaldo get selected by the committee?
• The audience didn't get riled up by the politician.
Based on descriptions in Grammar Dimensions: Form, Meaning, and Use 2nd Ed. by Jan Frodesen and Janet Eyring. Heinle & Heinle: Boston. 1997. Examples our own. Uses of Have, Has and Had
Forms of the verb to have are used to create tenses known as the present perfect and past perfect. The perfect tenses indicate that something has happened in the past; the present perfect indicating that something happened and might be continuing to happen, the past perfect indicating that something happened prior to something else happening. (That sounds worse than it really is!) See the section on Verb Tenses in the Active Voice for further explanation; also review material in the Directory of English Tenses.
To have is also in combination with other modal verbs to express probability and possibility in the past.
• As an affirmative statement, to have can express how certain you are that something happened (when combined with an appropriate modal + have + a past participle): "Georgia must have left already." "Clinton might have known about the gifts." "They may have voted already."
• As a negative statement, a modal is combined with not + have + a past participle to express how certain you are that something did not happen: "Clinton might not have known about the gifts." "I may not have been there at the time of the crime."
• To ask about possibility or probability in the past, a modal is combined with the subject + have + past participle: "Could Clinton have known about the gifts?"
• For short answers, a modal is combined with have: "Did Clinton know about this?" "I don't know. He may have." "The evidence is pretty positive. He must have."
To have (sometimes combined with to get) is used to express a logical inference:
• It's been raining all week; the basement has to be flooded by now.
• He hit his head on the doorway. He has got to be over seven feet tall!
Have is often combined with an infinitive to form an auxiliary whose meaning is similar to "must."
• I have to have a car like that!
• She has to pay her own tuition at college.
• He has to have been the first student to try that.

Modal Auxiliaries
Other helping verbs, called modal auxiliaries or modals, such as can, could, may, might, must, ought to, shall, should, will, and would, do not change form for different subjects. For instance, try substituting any of these modal auxiliaries for can with any of the subjects listed below.
I
you (singular)
he
we
you (plural)
they can write well.
There is also a separate section on the Modal Auxiliaries, which divides these verbs into their various meanings of necessity, advice, ability, expectation, permission, possibility, etc., and provides sample sentences in various tenses. See the section on Conditional Verb Forms for help with the modal auxiliary would. The shades of meaning among modal auxiliaries are multifarious and complex. Most English-as-a-Second-Language textbooks will contain at least one chapter on their usage. For more advanced students, A University Grammar of English, by Randolph Quirk and Sidney Greenbaum, contains an excellent, extensive analysis of modal auxiliaries.
The analysis of Modal Auxiliaries is based on a similar analysis in The Scott, Foresman Handbook for Writers by Maxine Hairston and John J. Ruszkiewicz. 4th ed. HarperCollins: New York. 1996. The description of helping verbs on this page is based on The Little, Brown Handbook by H. Ramsay Fowler and Jane E. Aaron, & Kay Limburg. 6th ed. HarperCollins: New York. 1995. By permission of Addison-Wesley Educational Publishers Inc. Examples in all cases are our own.
Uses of Can and Could
The modal auxiliary can is used
• to express ability (in the sense of being able to do something or knowing how to do something):
He can speak Spanish but he can't write it very well.
• to expression permission (in the sense of being allowed or permitted do something):
Can I talk to my friends in the library waiting room? (Note that can is less formal than may. Also, some writers will object to the use of can in this context.)
• to express theoretical possibility:
American automobile makers can make better cars if they think there's a profit in it.
The modal auxiliary could is used
• to express an ability in the past:
I could always beat you at tennis when we were kids.
• to express past or future permission:
Could I bury my cat in your back yard?
• to express present possibility:
We could always spend the afternoon just sitting around talking.
• to express possibility or ability in contingent circumstances:
If he studied harder, he could pass this course.
In expressing ability, can and could frequently also imply willingness: Can you help me with my homework? Can versus May
Whether the auxiliary verb can can be used to express permission or not — "Can I leave the room now?" ["I don't know if you can, but you may."] — depends on the level of formality of your text or situation. As Theodore Bernstein puts it in The Careful Writer, "a writer who is attentive to the proprieties will preserve the traditional distinction: can for ability or power to do something, may for permission to do it.
The question is at what level can you safely ignore the "proprieties." Merriam-Webster's Dictionary, tenth edition, says the battle is over and can can be used in virtually any situation to express or ask for permission. Most authorities, however, recommend a stricter adherence to the distinction, at least in formal situations.
Authority: The Careful Writer by Theodore Bernstein. The Free Press: New York. 1998. p. 87.
Uses of May and Might
Two of the more troublesome modal auxiliaries are may and might. When used in the context of granting or seeking permission, might is the past tense of may. Might is considerably more tentative than may.
• May I leave class early?
• If I've finished all my work and I'm really quiet, might I leave early?
In the context of expressing possibility, may and might are interchangeable present and future forms and might + have + past participle is the past form:
• She might be my advisor next semester.
• She may be my advisor next semester.
• She might have advised me not to take biology.
Avoid confusing the sense of possibility in may with the implication of might, that a hypothetical situation has not in fact occurred. For instance, let's say there's been a helicopter crash at the airport. In his initial report, before all the facts are gathered, a newscaster could say that the pilot "may have been injured." After we discover that the pilot is in fact all right, the newscaster can now say that the pilot "might have been injured" because it is a hypothetical situation that has not occurred. Another example: a body had been identified after much work by a detective. It was reported that "without this painstaking work, the body may have remained unidentified." Since the body was, in fact, identified, might is clearly called for.
Uses of Will and Would
In certain contexts, will and would are virtually interchangeable, but there are differences. Notice that the contracted form 'll is very frequently used for will.
Will can be used to express willingness:
• I'll wash the dishes if you dry.
• We're going to the movies. Will you join us?
It can also express intention (especially in the first person):
I'll do my exercises later on and prediction:
• specific: The meeting will be over soon.
• timeless: Humidity will ruin my hairdo.
• habitual: The river will overflow its banks every spring.
Would can also be used to express willingness:
• Would you please take off your hat?
It can also express insistence (rather rare, and with a strong stress on the word "would"):
• Now you've ruined everything. You would act that way.
and characteristic activity:
• customary: After work, he would walk to his home in West Hartford.
• typical (casual): She would cause the whole family to be late, every time.
In a main clause, would can express a hypothetical meaning:
• My cocker spaniel would weigh a ton if I let her eat what she wants.
Finally, would can express a sense of probability:
I hear a whistle. That would be the five o'clock train

PERBANKAN BANKING
BANKING
Definition
According to Law Decree No. 10 of 1998 dated 10 November 1998 on the banks, it can be concluded that the banking business includes three activities, namely raise funds, distribute funds, and provides banking services lainnya.Kegiatan raise and channel funds be an activity while the main bank provides services to other banks only support activities. Events raise funds, in the form of raising funds from the public in the form of demand deposits, savings and time deposits. Usually he is given an attractive fringe benefits such as, flowers and gifts as a stimulus for the community. Events raise funds, the provision of loans to the public. While other banking services provided to support the main activity tersebut.bank founded by prof. Dr. Ali Afifuddin, SE In my opinion, the bank is a tool that allows people to save money activity, in terms of commerce, as well as for future investment. The world of banking is one institution that plays an important role in the economy of a country (particularly in financing the economy). Here are some benefits of banking in the life:
1. As an investment model, which means that derivative transactions can be used as one model of investing. Although in general is kind of short-term investments (yield enhancement). 2. As a way of hedging, which means that derivative transactions can serve as one way to eliminate risk by hedging (hedging), or also known as risk management. 3. Price information, which means, derivatives transactions can serve as a means of seeking or providing information about the prices of certain commodities in the future (price discovery). 4. Function speculative, which means, derivatives may provide an opportunity speculation (speculative) to changes in market value of derivative transaction itself. 5. Production management functions work well and efficiently, which means that derivative transactions can give an idea to a manufacturer of production management in assessing the demand and market needs in the future. Apart from funsi-banking functions (bank) that the primary or its derivatives, hence the need to be considered for the banking world, is the philosophical purpose of the existence of banks in Indonesia. This is clearly reflected in Article four (4) of Act No. 10 of 1998 which explains, "Bank Indonesia aims to support the implementation of national development in order to improve equity, economic growth and national stability towards improving the welfare of the people." Deeper review of the business of banks, the banks (banking) of Indonesia in conducting its business must be based on the principle of economic democracy, which uses the precautionary principle hatian.4 This, clearly illustrated, because philosophically the bank has the function of macro and micro to the process of nation-building .
Banking History
Origin of Banking
The Bank was first established in the form of such a firm in general in 1690, when the British empire-willed plan to rebuild the fleet marine force to compete with the French naval forces but the British government when it does not have the financial capability and then based on the idea that later William Paterson by Charles Montagu realized by forming a financial intermediary which ultimately can meet these financing funds in just twelve days.

Struggling Bank Doctrine
Government Bank
Through the Minister of Finance Decree No. 1/M/61 dated January 6, 1961 which prohibits the announcement and publication of statistical figures monetary / banking, then between the years 1960 to 1965, Bank Indonesia does not publish annual reports, including statistical data on the central clearing, and calculations.
On July 5, 1964, on the basis of political considerations to simplify the command in the banking sector to support the Universe Development Planning, then in 1965 the government established a policy to integrate all the state banks into one bank under the name Bank Negara Indonesia, Bank integration initiatives of this government derived from the idea Jusuf Muda Dalam, who was then serving as Minister of the Central Bank / Governor of Bank Indonesia - the newly appointed from the original position of President Director of BNI - and approved by President Sukarno. The basic idea is to make banking as a tool of revolution with the motto Berdjoang Bank under the leadership of Great Leader of the Revolution. Name of Bank Negara Indonesia (BNI) as a single bank, proposed by Joseph Young in itself. The result was the birth of a new structure makes Berdjoang Bank;
Bank Indonesia to Bank Negara Indonesia Unit I;
Farmers and Fishermen Cooperative Bank and the Bank Eczema Indonesia became Bank Negara Indonesia Unit II;
Bank Negara Indonesia to Bank Negara Indonesia Unit III;
State Commercial Bank became Bank Negara Indonesia Unit IV and
State Savings Bank became Bank Negara Indonesia Unit V.
But not all government bank successfully integrated into the Bank Berdjoang namely Bank Dagang Negara (BDN) and Bapindo. BDN being let loose from the integration process is mainly due to the President Director of BDN JD Massie was appointed as Minister of the Control of National Private Banks which would have had enough influence to object to the unification BDN with other banks. Massie argued that this policy will confuse overseas correspondent banks for the settlement of L / C exports and imports for the name of the same bank. Meanwhile, Bapindo not integrated into the Bank Struggling because this bank under the Development Council chaired by the First Minister of Development Affairs with members of the Finance Minister, who is also Chairman of the Board of Trustees Bapindo, and Governor of Bank Indonesia as anggota.Dengan Thus, through his position, the effect Bapindo strong enough to deter integrated into the BNI.
Private Bank
In 1965 the government wants combines all private banks or foreign banks in Private Development Bank as the only bank collector and distributor of all progressive funds in the private sector and the tools that can be used Universe Development Plan and other plans specified by the President of the Republic of Indonesia.
History of State Bank
As we know that Indonesia is familiar with the banking world from the former colonialist, the Netherlands. Therefore, history can not be separated from the influence perbankanpun countries menjajahnya good for government banks and private banks. In 1958, the government nationalized the Dutch-owned bank began with Handelsbank Nationale (NHB) in 1959 which subsequently changed to the State Commercial Banks (BUNEG later became Bank Bumi Daya), then in 1960 consecutive Escomptobank into Bank Dagang Negara (BDN) and Nederlandsche Handelsmaatschappij (NHM) to Farmers and Fishermen Cooperative Bank (BKTN) and later became Bank Expor Impor Indonesia (BEII).

The purpose of banking services
Bank service is very important in a country's economic development. Banking services are generally divided into two goals. First, as the provider payment mechanism and an efficient tool for the customer. For this, the bank provides cash, savings, and credit cards. This is the most important role of banks in economic life. Without the provision of efficient payment instruments, then goods can only be traded by way of barter that takes time.
Second, by accepting savings from customers and lend it to those who need funds, meaning the bank to increase the flow of funds for investment and better utilization produktif.Bila this role goes well, the economy of a country will menngkat. Without the flow of these funds, the money just stay in the pocket of someone, people can not get a business loan and can not be built because they do not have the loan fund.
Banking services are actually very much, just that very few people who know. The purpose and benefits are very good for our customers. But many who use them for criminal acts, such as ATM burglary and forgery of books and other savings.
Holders of the Company gains Big Ten Banks Based on Year 2003 (In U.S. Dollars)

2. Bank of America - 15 billion
3. HSBC - 10 billion
4. Royal Bank of Scotland - 8 billion
5. Wells Fargo - 7 billion
6. JPMorgan Chase - 7 billion
7. UBS AG - 6 billion
8. Wachovia - 5 billion
9. Morgan Stanley - 5 billion
10. Merrill Lynch - 4 billion
The types of banks and their functions
Three main groups of financial institutions - commercial banks, savings institutions and credit unions - which are also called storage institution because most of the funds came from customer deposits. Commercial banks are the largest group of institutions when measured by the amount of storage assets. They perform functions similar to savings institutions and credit unions, namely, accepting deposits (liabilities) and makes loans (However, they differ in the composition of assets and liabilities, which are much more variable).
Comparison of concentration of bank's asset size, indicates that bank consolidation seems to have reduced the smallest share of bank assets (assets under $ 1 billion). These banks - with assets under $ 1 billion - tend to specialize in retail or consumer banking, such as providing housing mortgages, consumer loans and deposit locally. While the bank's assets are relatively large (with assets of more than $ 1 billion), consisting of two classes are regional or super regional bank. They are involved in wholesale more complex about komersialperbankan activities, including consumer credit and housing as well as commercial and industrial loans (D & I Lending), both regionally and nationally. In addition, banks - big banks have access to buy the fund (fund) - such as inter-bank funds or government funds (federal funds) - to finance their lending and investment activities. However, some very large banks have a different title, namely the Central Bank Currently, five banking organizations form a group of Central Banks, namely: Bank of New York, Deutsche Bank (through acquisitions bankers trust each other), Citigroup, JP Morgan, and HSBC Bank in the United States. However, the numbers have been declining due to megamergers. It is important to note that, assets or loans not always an indicator of a bank is the central bank. But, a combination of site and dependence on the source nondeposit or loan funds.
Services - banking services
Services - services are provided to support the raise and distribute funds, either directly related to savings and credit activities and indirectly. Other banking services are as follows:
• deposit services such as electricity deposits, telephone, water, or tuition
• payment services such as payment of salary, pension, or gift
• Service remittances (transfers)
• Billing Services (collection)
• Clearing
• Sales of foreign currency
• Storage of documents
• Service Desk check
• Credit Card
• Services - services that exist in the stock market like loan issuance and securities traders.
• Services Letter of Credit (L / C)
• Bank guarantees and bank references

Usually he is given an attractive fringe benefits such as, flowers and gifts as a stimulus for the community. Events raise funds, the provision of loans to the public. While other banking services provided to support the main activity tersebut.bank founded by prof. Dr. Ali Afifuddin, SE In my opinion, the bank is a tool that allows people to save money activity, in terms of commerce, as well as for future investment. The world of banking is one institution that plays an important role in the economy of a country (particularly in financing the economy). Here are some benefits of banking in the life:
1. As an investment model, which means that derivative transactions can be used as one model of investing. Although in general is kind of short-term investments (yield enhancement). 2. As a way of hedging, which means that derivative transactions can serve as one way to eliminate risk by hedging (hedging), or also known as risk management. 3. Price information, which means, derivatives transactions can serve as a means of seeking or providing information about the prices of certain commodities in the future (price discovery). 4. Function speculative, which means, derivatives may provide an opportunity speculation (speculative) to changes in market value of derivative transaction itself. 5. Production management functions work well and efficiently, which means that derivative transactions can give an idea to a manufacturer of production management in assessing the demand and market needs in the future. Apart from funsi-banking functions (bank) that the primary or its derivatives, hence the need to be considered for the banking world, is the philosophical purpose of the existence of banks in Indonesia. This is clearly reflected in Article four (4) of Act No. 10 of 1998 which explains, "Bank Indonesia aims to support the implementation of national development in order to improve equity, economic growth and national stability towards improving the welfare of the people." Deeper review of the business of banks, the banks (banking) of Indonesia in conducting its business must be based on the principle of economic democracy, which uses the precautionary principle hatian.4 This, clearly illustrated, because philosophically the bank has the function of macro and micro to the process of nation-building .

Struggling Bank Doctrine
Government Bank
Through the Minister of Finance Decree No. 1/M/61 dated January 6, 1961 which prohibits the announcement and publication of statistical figures monetary / banking, then between the years 1960 to 1965, Bank Indonesia does not publish annual reports, including statistical data on the central clearing, and calculations.
On July 5, 1964, on the basis of political considerations to simplify the command in the banking sector to support the Universe Development Planning, then in 1965 the government established a policy to integrate all the state banks into one bank under the name Bank Negara Indonesia, Bank integration initiatives of this government derived from the idea Jusuf Muda Dalam, who was then serving as Minister of the Central Bank / Governor of Bank Indonesia - the newly appointed from the original position of President Director of BNI - and approved by President Sukarno. The basic idea is to make banking as a tool of revolution with the motto Berdjoang Bank under the leadership of Great Leader of the Revolution.

State Savings Bank became Bank Negara Indonesia Unit V.
But not all government bank successfully integrated into the Bank Berdjoang namely Bank Dagang Negara (BDN) and Bapindo. BDN being let loose from the integration process is mainly due to the President Director of BDN JD Massie was appointed as Minister of the Control of National Private Banks which would have had enough influence to object to the unification BDN with other banks. Massie argued that this policy will confuse overseas correspondent banks for the settlement of L / C exports and imports for the name of the same bank. Meanwhile, Bapindo not integrated into the Bank Struggling because this bank under the Development Council chaired by the First Minister of Development Affairs with members of the Finance Minister, who is also Chairman of the Board of Trustees Bapindo, and Governor of Bank Indonesia as anggota.Dengan Thus, through his position, the effect Bapindo strong enough to deter integrated into the BNI.

The purpose of banking services
Bank service is very important in a country's economic development. Banking services are generally divided into two goals. First, as the provider payment mechanism and an efficient tool for the customer. For this, the bank provides cash, savings, and credit cards. This is the most important role of banks in economic life. Without the provision of efficient payment instruments, then goods can only be traded by way of barter that takes time.
Second, by accepting savings from customers and lend it to those who need funds, meaning the bank to increase the flow of funds for investment and better utilization produktif.Bila this role goes well, the economy of a country will menngkat. Without the flow of these funds, the money just stay in the pocket of someone, people can not get a business loan and can not be built because they do not have the loan fund.
Banking services are actually very much, just that very few people who know. The purpose and benefits are very good for our customers. But many who use them for criminal acts, such as ATM burglary and forgery of books and other savings.

The types of banks and their functions
Three main groups of financial institutions - commercial banks, savings institutions and credit unions - which are also called storage institution because most of the funds came from customer deposits. Commercial banks are the largest group of institutions when measured by the amount of storage assets. They perform functions similar to savings institutions and credit unions, namely, accepting deposits (liabilities) and makes loans (However, they differ in the composition of assets and liabilities, which are much more variable).
Comparison of concentration of bank's asset size, indicates that bank consolidation seems to have reduced the smallest share of bank assets (assets under $ 1 billion). These banks - with assets under $ 1 billion - tend to specialize in retail or consumer banking, such as providing housing mortgages, consumer loans and deposit locally. While the bank's assets are relatively large (with assets of more than $ 1 billion), consisting of two classes are regional or super regional bank. They are involved in wholesale more complex about komersialperbankan activities, including consumer credit and housing as well as commercial and industrial loans (D & I Lending), both regionally and nationally. In addition, banks - big banks have access to buy the fund (fund) - such as inter-bank funds or government funds (federal funds) - to finance their lending and investment activities. However, some very large banks have a different title, namely the Central Bank Currently, five banking organizations form a group of Central Banks, namely: Bank of New York, Deutsche Bank (through acquisitions bankers trust each other), Citigroup, JP Morgan, and HSBC Bank in the United States. However, the numbers have been declining due to megamergers. It is important to note that, assets or loans not always an indicator of a bank is the central bank. But, a combination of site and dependence on the source nondeposit or loan funds.
