"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 / 长久以来我们都是以钱币作为交易的工具
原因 / 科技进步
作者想法 / 想把整个钱币的系统改成电子交易
补充 / 句子最后提到 accounts of credits and debits.
在美国的银行开户 银行会给你两个account 一个saving 一个credit
saving account 的利息比较高 但不能领钱
credit account 的利息比较低 但是可以领钱(当提款哪) 也可以当卡来刷
Credit account 会给你一张Debit Card
刷debit card时需要输入密码或是签名 而且交易一但发生 钱马上就会转走
所以说你如果帐户里面钱不够 是无法刷卡的 所以不会有刷完卡缴不出钱的问题
跟一般信用卡月底缴费的方法不大依样
句子中所提到的credit讲的应该是一般的信用卡credit card (月底付款)
句子中所提到的debit讲的应该就是我所说的debit card(立即付款)
