What is the Difference Between Checking and Savings Accounts?
The main difference between checking and savings accounts is that checking accounts are primarily for accessing your money for daily use while savings accounts are primarily for saving money. Checking accounts are considered “transactional,” meaning that they allow you to access your money when and where you need it. While both allow you to access your money, you may consider it easier to do so with checking accounts. Since these accounts are designed to give you easy access to your cash, they often come with debit cards, checks, and even offer digital payment options. In contrast, savings accounts have a limit on the number of withdrawals you can make each month.
While checking accounts are convenient for daily cash needs, it’s important to remember that they may be age restricted. Most banks won’t allow people under the age of 18 to open a checking account without a parent or legal guardian as a co-owner of the account. Before opening a checking account, make sure that its terms fit your financial needs and your lifestyle.
When it comes to setting aside money for a longterm need or goal, you should consider a savings account. Savings accounts are designed to hold money over a long period of time to help you save for larger goals (rather than everyday purchases). As your money stays in the account, it will accrue interest and grow over time. This means that you will need to visit your bank, set up a transfer online, or make an ATM withdrawal to access your money.
Keeping some of your money in a savings account is a great way to set it aside for emergencies or large purchases – its limited access will keep you from spending it on day-to-day necessities. There are also dedicated savings accounts for kids, though a parent or guardian is usually required as a joint owner.

IT HELP DESK
Working the IT help desk can be a great entry-level job.
As a help desk professional, your core responsibilities are to
provide technical help and support; that could mean setting
up and repairing computers or responding to a customer’s
question about how to use their computer, as well as
performing routine maintenance of a company’s computer
networks and internet systems or teaching staff how to use
new technologies. The job requires deep computer knowledge
and good technical and interpersonal skills. But what if you
want more? Additional credentials and advanced degrees can
help you move beyond the IT help desk. Here are three career
paths to consider.
(i) Cloud and systems administrator – Network and
systems administration is a natural next step from the IT
help desk. Organizations need reliable computer networks,
so there’s great demand for skilled professionals who can
manage, administer, and protect computer systems. (ii)
Network ops and security expert - Cybersecurity is a top-of-mind concern in every sector and industry. IT professionals
with expert training in network operations and security
systems are in high demand. (iii) IT manager – Yes, you will
need plenty of experience, credentials, and certifications; still,
you can get to a managerial or executive-level position from
the IT help desk. It can be tough to see the top through all
those steps of the stair, but the top is closer than you think.
Software development, computer network architecture,
and computer programming are other possible professions
those working on the IT help desk or in other entry-level
IT positions can pursue. In today’s ever-changing job
marketplace, there’s no one career pathway.

Mining trucks are monstrous machines that guzzle fuel
at a scarcely believable rate. Weighing 220 tonnes, they can
get through 134 litres of diesel every hour. Little wonder then
that mining companies are focusing their attention on these
vehicles as the first step to reducing their carbon footprint.
Anglo American, in collaboration with several partners, is
retrofitting a mining haul truck with hydrogen power technology.
A first of its kind, the monster mining vehicle is being piloted
in Limpopo, South Africa, at the firm’s Mogalakwena platinum
mine. Due to be launched early 2022, the truck will be hybrid,
with a hydrogen fuel cell providing roughly half of the power
and a battery pack the other half.
Instead of having a tank of diesel that powers the motor,
hydrogen enters the fuel cell and mixes with oxygen to create
water in a chemical reaction catalysed by platinum, which
generates the electricity needed to power the motors that
drive the wheels. By rolling out this technology across its
global truck fleet, Anglo American says it will be “taking the
equivalent of half a million diesel cars ‘off the road”.
The construction sector, which includes mining, accounted
for 39% of energy-related CO2
emissions in 2017, according
to Davide Sabbadin, from the European Environmental
Bureau. He says the sector will need to reduce its energy
consumption by a third if it hopes to be compatible with the
Paris Agreement. “While electric-powered vehicles, generally
speaking, are less damaging to the environment than internal
combustion engines on a life cycle analysis, this does not
mean that they are green,” he says. It all hinges on how the
hydrogen is produced. Some hydrogen is created using fossil
fuels, which of course means there are substantial emissions
as a result. “We should refrain from presenting hydrogen as a
technological solution to all problems… all forms of hydrogen
come at an environmental cost – water use, impacts on
nature,” says Mr Sabbadin.

The Amazon Forest
The Amazon is often called the lungs of the earth and produces 20% of the world’s oxygen. For this reason, many people are trying to stop deforestation in the rainforest. Brazil, for example, is working hard to help the rainforest survive.
A few years ago, the Brazilian government put forward a plan called ARPA (Amazon Region Protected Areas). It had the support of many international agencies, including the World Bank, and the German Development Bank, KfW. The main aim was to build new areas of protected rainforest, maintain areas of the rainforest that hadn’t yet been destroyed, and stop deforestation. Deforestation contributes greatly to global warming because carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere when trees get cut down and burned.
One of the first areas to be recognized as part of ARPA was the Tumucumaque Mountains National Park. It is 38,800 km2 and is the same size as Switzerland, a small country in Central Europe. It’s the world’s largest protected tropical national park, and the second largest national park. It is home to certain species of jaguar, eagle, and lizard, which can only survive in the rainforest. Many of these species are under threat from climate change and deforestation.
In order to work in the park, conservationists need
a reliable map. However, no map existed, and they
didn’t have enough knowledge to make one on their
own. They came up with the idea of involving local
tribes to help them, combining modern and ancient
methods to produce a map. The tribes learned to use
global positioning system handsets (GPS), in conjunction with their local knowledge of the area, which
included fishing and hunting grounds, and places of
historical or mythical importance. Aerial photos were
a 20useful aid in the process as well. This method of
map-making is now the key to the future of rainforests,
in Brazil and the rest of the world too.
Analyze the sentences according to structure and
grammar use.
1. The (‘s) in “The Amazon is often called the lungs of the earth and produces 20% of the world’s oxygen.”, is the contraction for the verb to be (is).

4. The negative form of “They came up with the idea of involving local tribes to help them, combining modern and ancient methods to produce a map.” is They didn’t come up with the idea of involving local tribes to help them, combining modern and ancient methods to not produce a map.
Choose the alternative which presents the correct sentences.
