storms sink ships

rescuers have found the bodies of over 130 people killed in two ferry disasters in bangladesh．the accidents happened during a storm that hit the country on april 21．hundreds more are missing or feared dead．

the two ferries sank in different rivers near the capital city of dhaka as strong winds and rain hit the south asian country. the government has since banned a11 ferries and other boats from travelling at night during the april-may stormy season. one of the ferries, mv mitali，was carrying far more people than it was supposed to．about 400 passengers fitted into a space made for just 300，police said the second ferry carried about 100 passengers．

\were on board the ferry or how many of them survived．\

ferries in bangladesh don't always keep passenger lists，making it difficult to determine the exact number of people on board.

besides the ferry accidents，at least 40 people were killed and 400 injured by lightning strikes, falling houses and trees and the sinking of small boats．

storms are common this time of year in bangladesh, as are boating accidents．ferry disasters take away hundreds of lives every year in a nation of 130 million people．

officials blame these river accidents on a lack of safety measures, too many passengers in boats and not enough checks on weather conditions.

ferries are a common means of transport in bangladesh．it is a country covered by about 230 rivers．some 20,000 ferries use the nation's waterways(水路)every year．and many of them are dangerously overcrowded(过度拥挤)． since1977, more than 3,000 people have died in some 260 boating accidents．

where you save your money often depends on what you are saving for．if you are saving to buy a dictionary or to go to a concert，then probably keep your money somewhere in your room．

if you are saving for a big purchase like a mountain bike or a school trip, where would you save your money?

one place to save money is the bank．putting your money in a savings account will help your money earn more money．if you put your money in a piggy bank(猪形储蓄罐)，one year later you'll still have the same amount of money you put in．if you put your money in a savings account，one year later，you'll have more money than you put in．why? when you keep your money in a bank，your money earns interest．interest is the amount of

money a bank pays you to use your money. the bank uses your money(and the money of other people，too)to loan money to people and businesses．

the bank will send you a statement several times a year．a bank statement tells you how much money there is in your account，it also tells you how much interest you have earned．if you leave your money in the bank，you can watch it grow! another way you can save money is to buy a certificate of deposit or cd. if you have some money that you don't need to use for a long time，this is a good way to make your money grow． you can buy a cd at a bank．you agree not to use the money for a certain period of time． that period might be from six months to five years you can't touch your money during that time. if you do，you must pay a penalty，or fee.

since the bank is using your money for that time period，it will pay you interest．you will

earn more interest with a cd than in a savings account．can you guess why? it's because you promise to leave your money in the bank for a certain period of time. banks pay different rates of interest. so, you may want to compare rates in newspaper ads before buying a cd．
