When someone has money that he wants to put in a safe place, he naturally takes it to a bank. Until recently the very appearance of the bank building was designed to assure people that their money would be safe. There were thick, solid walls and barred windows. All the windows and doors were wired to set off the burglar alarms if anyone tried to force his way in. The vaults where the money was kept had huge, steel doors with complicated locks. Uniformed guards with pistols in their holsters were always on duty in the bank. The tellers’ cages - the cubicles where the bank clerks, or tellers, worked - actually resembled cages. They had gratings across the front, high sides and back, and a door that could be opened only by pushing a release button.
The new style of bank design retains some of these protective features, but the idea now is to make the hank seem like a friendly place rather than a forbidding fortress. The tellers’ cages have been replaced by flat, unobstructed counters. The guards and burglar alarms are still there, but they are less noticeable than they used to be.
According to the passage, which of the following statements is correct?
选项
A、It is safer to put your money in a bank now.
B、Vaults have huge, steel doors in a new style bank.
C、Guards on duty in a bank will not carry guns now.
D、Bank clerks used to work in high sides and back chairs
答案
B
解析
参阅第二段第一句,从此句的前半部分可以看出,现代银行保留了诸如保险库安装大铁门之类的安全措施。
