"For hundreds of years, the monetary system of most countries has
been based on the exchange of metal coins and printed pieces of paper.
However, because of recent developments in technology, the
international community should consider replacing the entire system of
coins and paper with a system of electronic accounts of credits and
debits."

背景 / 長久以來我們都是以錢幣作為交易的工具
原因 / 科技進步
作者想法 / 想把整個錢幣的系統改成電子交易
補充 / 句子最後提到 accounts of credits and debits.
在美國的銀行開戶 銀行會給你兩個account 一個saving 一個credit
saving account 的利息比較高 但不能領錢
credit account 的利息比較低 但是可以領錢(當提款哪) 也可以當卡來刷
Credit account 會給你一張Debit Card
刷debit card時需要輸入密碼或是簽名 而且交易一但發生 錢馬上就會轉走
所以說你如果帳戶裡面錢不夠 是無法刷卡的 所以不會有刷完卡繳不出錢的問題
跟一般信用卡月底繳費的方法不大依樣
句子中所提到的credit講的應該是一般的信用卡credit card (月底付款)
句子中所提到的debit講的應該就是我所說的debit card(立即付款)
