| The inVention of Banking preCeded that of Coinage | Ngan hang da co tu truoc khi tien te duoc ra doi |
| Banking oRiginated something like 4000 years old in Ancient Mesopotamia , in Present-day Iraq , where the Royal paLaces and Temples proVided seCure places for the Safe keeping of grain and other coMModities. | Ngan hang co nguon goc tuw 4000 nam truoc o vung mesopotamia co xua ( Iraq hien nay ) noi nhung lau dai hoang gia va cac ngoi den la noi de du tru luong thuc va cac hang hoa khac |
| Receipts came to be used for transfers not only to the original depositors but also to third parties | bien lai dc su dung khong chi cho chuyen doi voi nguoi gui do ma con voi ben thu ba |
| Eventually private houses in Mesopotamia also got involved in these banking operations , and laws regulating them was included in the code of hammurabi , the legal code deVeloped not long afterwards | Tham chi ca nhung ngoi nha rieng o Mesopotamia cung thuoc he thong ngan hang , cac luat le quy dinh viec nay duoc dat ra trong mat ma hop phap ra doi khong lau sau do |
| In ancient Egypt too , the centralisation of harvests in state warehouse led to the deVelopment of a system of banking | o Ai Cap co dai , su tap trung luong thuc trong cac nha kho da dan toi su hinh thanh he thong ngan hang |
| Written orders for the withdrawal of separate lots of grain by owners whose crops had been deposited there for safety and convenience , or which had been compulsorily dePosited to the credit of the king , soon became used as a more general method payment | Nhung thu tuc dc ghi lai cho viec xuat hang cua cac nguoi chu gui vi su an toan va thuan tien hay ca nhung khoan bat buoc phai gui toi nha vua , duoc su dung nhu mot phuong phap pho bien de tra no ng khac , bao gom thue nguoi thu gom , thay tu va thuong g |
| Even after the introDuction of Coinage , these Egyptian grain Banks served to reDuce the need for Precious Metals , which tended to be reServed for Foreign Purchases , parTicularly in conNection with Military acTivities | Tham chi ngay khi tien te ra doi , nguoi ta van dung ngan hang de phuc vu cho viec giam thieu nhu cau kim loai hiem de du tru cho viec buon ban vs nc ngoai dac biet lien quan toi cac hoat dong quan su |
| The thought filled me with dread because I was sure my voice was boring | toi thuc su rat hoang hot vi toi biet la giong minh rat chan |
| Anyway , when the time came , I tried not panic , and went back to first principles . I made a plan , first deciding my key message . | du sao , den khi phai noi , toi van lam theo nguyen tac dau tien cua minh . Toi tu len ke hoach , dau tien phai xac dinh thong diep chu chot toi muon noi den |
| This gave me structure , and was the first step to dispelling my nerves | dieu nay cho toi mot trat tu , giup toi buoc dau bot lo lang |
| Suddenly there was power behind my voice and I found I was in control . | Bong nhien giong cua toi nhu co suc manh va toi thay minh da dieu chinh duoc no |
| It was like going to a vocal gym | giong nhu toi phong luyen thanh |
| Instead of gabbling the sentence , i slowed down and took time to enjoy the words | thay vi lap bap mai mot cau , toi da binh tinh lai va biet su dung tu ngu |
| I lacked confidence at first to speak without a script but I learnt not to write everything down to the last word - the audience switched off when I did that | lan dau noi khong co giay toi cung co thieu tu tin nhung toi cung da hoc duoc cach de khong viet tat ca moi thu cho toi tu cuoi cung - khan gia se chan nan neu toi lam the |
| A friend gave me the tip of memorising the first few sentences , then I could make my eye contact with the people I was speaking to - engage with them | mot nguoi ban day cho toi cach lam sao de nho mot vai cau dau tien , sau do toi co the dung mat de "noi" voi nhung nguoi nghe - thu hut ho |
| The term "non-verbal" is commonly used to describe such coMMunicative resources as Gesture , facial movement and tone of voice . | thuat ngu " ngon ngu ngam" thuong duoc dung de chi nhung hoat dong giao tiep nhu dieu bo , net mat va giong dieu |
| The term has long been useful in challenging the misconCeption that the words Constitute the whole of communiCation | thuat ngu nay da rat huu dung trong viec xoa bo mot suy nghi sai lam rang tu ngu co the dien ta dc moi y nghia trong giao tiep |
| However , a Further aSSumption has sometimes seemed to follow : that non-verbal exPression is sometimes unitary independent of verbal communicating , or classifable under some single term like "body language" | tuy nhien mot gia thiet rong hon doi luc cho rang , ngon ngu ngam co luc tach roi , khong phu thuoc voi ngon ngu truc tiep hoac co the chia ra thanh thuat ngu doc lap nhu ngon ngu cu chi |
| This is to drastically simplify our actual practice | dieu nay da don gian hoa hoan toan ve cach chung ta thuc hien |
| as pointed out by writers on language and social interaction, gestural and vocal actions are often integrated rather than autonomous , and verbal and non-verbal communicating usually produced in a coordinated fashion . | Nhu da duoc chi ra boi cac nha van trong moi lien ket giua ngon ngu va ngoai canh , dieu bo va hanh dong cu chi thuong phoi hop voi nhau hon la tach rieng biet , va ca ngon ngu truc tiep va gian tiep thuong duoc tao ra phong cach pha tron |
| proPosing a Concept of "non-verbal" expression has led to an unfounded generaliZation about this supposedly distinct subject : that it is the medium for exPressing eMotions and reLations rather than conscious thought or ideal for example . | viec dua ra mot dinh nghia ve ngon ngu ngam co the dan den su thua nhan vo can cu voi mon dac biet nay : vi du nhu chung thuong bieu dat cam xuc vaf moi quan he hon la ve li tri |
| Even if this were true : the fact remains that the resources covered by the term "non-verbal" are diverse and complex in the extreme | Ngay ca khi dieu do co dung thi su that van la nhung thong tin ham chua ngon ngu ngam deu rat phuc tap va da dang |
| It can be only misleading to bunch them together as a distinctive communicative mode | se luon sai lam neu cu cho chung la mot phuong tien giao tiep rieng biet |
