8、ity time of offerAn offer becomes _1_ when it reaches the offeree (CISG Art.15 ). On this point, the laws in all states share the same view, for an offer is an indication of sellers _2_, and the offeree can only decide whether to accept it or not when he receives it. Therefore, if one party expects

9、or somehow learns that someone is sending him an offer before he really receives it, he sends an “acceptance” to the offeror, in this case. No contract is formed even if the content of the “acceptance” _3_with the offer he receives later. The “acceptance” is in fact an offer, and therefore, no contr

10、act can be formed on this unless the other party _4_ the “acceptance”.Withdrawal of offerThe _5_ of offer means that the offeror, for some reason, withdraws his offer before it reaches the offeree or before it becomes effective. This may happen when the offeror finds that the offer he makes contains

11、 some mistake, or that the situation has changed which makes his offer _6_ to him. The common practice is to make use of a faster means of communication to send the message of withdrawal so that it can reach the offeree earlier than the offer does.Revocation of offerTo revoke an offer means that whe

12、n the offer has reached the offeree, and it has become effective, the offeror acts to revoke the offer thus to kill its effectiveness. The issue of whether an effective offer may be revoked _7_ hot debates among scholars from different law systems. The civil law system _8_ that an offer is _9_ withi

13、n the validity time, or during the time in expectation of a reply, while the common law system provides that an offer may be revoked at any time unless it is accepted. The Convention makes some mediation between the two legal systems of the world which agrees in principle that an offer is revocable

14、before the note of acceptance is dispatched but provides that on the following two occasions, an offer is irrevocable.1) It indicates, whether by starting a fixed or otherwise, that it is irrevocable.2) If it was reasonable for the offeree to rely on the offer as being irrevocable and the offeree ha

15、s acted in _10_ on the offer.1. A. objective B. meaningful C. effective D. helpful 2. A. proposal B. tone C. case D. term3. A. differs B. coincides C. deals D. copes 4. A. refuses B. dispatches C. confirms D. receives 5. A. withdrawal B. lose C. validity D. mediation6. A. good B. unfavorable C. well

17、practiced in ancient Lydia, Phoenicia, China, and Greece, where trade and commerce flourished. The temples in Babylonia made loans from their treasuries as early as 2000 B.C. The temples of ancient Greece served as safe-deposit vaults for the valuables of worshipers. The Greeks also coined money and

18、 developed a system of credit. The Roman Empire had a highly developed banking system, and its bankers accepted deposits of money, made loans, and pur- chased mortgages. Shortly after the fall of Rome in AD 476, banking declined in Europe. (1) _ The moneychangers of the Italian states developed faci

19、lities for exchanging local and foreign currency. Soon merchants demanded other services, such as lending money, and gradually bank ser- vices were expanded. The first bank to offer most of the basic banking functions known today was the Bank of Barcelona in Spain. Founded by merchants in 1401, this

20、 bank held deposits, exchanged currency, and carried out lending operations. It also is believed to have introduced the bank check. (2) _ These institutions laid the foundation for modern banks of deposit and transaction. For more than 300 years, banking on the European continent was in the hands of

21、 powerful statesmen and wealthy private bankers, such as the Medici family in Florence and the Fuggers in Germany. (3) _ The Bank of France was organized in 1800 by Napoleon. The hank had become the dominant financial institution in France by the mid-1800s. In Germany, banking experienced a rapid de

22、velopment about the middle of the 19th century with the establishment of several strong stock-issuing, or publicly owned banks. Banking in the British Isles originated with the London goldsmiths of the 16th century. These men made loans and held valuables for safekeeping. By the 17th century English

23、 goldsmiths created the model for today's modern fractional reserve banking - that is, the practice of keeping a fraction of depositors' money in reserve while ex- tending the remainder to borrowers in the form of loans. Customers deposited gold and silver with the goldsmiths for safekeeping

24、 and were given deposit receipts verifying their Ownership of the gold deposited with the goldsmith. These receipts could be used as money because they were backed by gold. But the goldsmiths soon discovered that they could take a chance and issue additional receipts against the gold to other people

25、 who needed to borrow money. (4) _ Hence , the amount of receipts or claims on the gold frequently exceeded the actual amount of the gold, and the idea that bankers could create money was born. (5) _ Other banks existed in the colonies prior to this, most notably the Bank of Pennsylvania, but these

26、banks were chartered by individual states. In 1787 the Bank of North America changed to a Pennsylvania charter following controversy about the legality of a congressional charter. Other large banks were chartered in the early 1780s by the various states, primarily to is- sue paper money called bank

27、notes. These notes supplemented the coins then in circulation and assisted greatly in business expansion. The banks were also permitted to accept deposits and to make loans. A. Three other early banks, each managed by a committee of city officials, were the Bank of Amsterdam (1609), the Bank of Veni

28、ce (1587), and the Bank of Hamburg (1619). B. This worked as long as the original depositors did not withdraw all their gold at one time. C. The increase of trade in 13th-century Italy prompted the revival of banking. D. During the 19th century, members of the Rothschild family became the most influ

29、ential bankers in all Europe and probably in the world. This international banking family was founded by German financier Mayer Amschel Rothschild (1743 1812), but it soon spread to all the major European financial capitals. E. Because there were no minimum reserve requirements on deposits, bank not

30、es were secured by the assets of the issuing banks. Most assets took the form of business loans. F. The first important bank in the United States was the Bank of North America, established in 1781 by the Second Continental Congress. It was the first bank chartered by the U.S. government.III形式主义类题（5句
