SWIFT, the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications, is a non-profit 1making bank-owned, cooperative society. . It was set up in Brussels in 1973 and now it has more than a thousand member banks in more than fifty countries including our country. Vnesheconombank has been a member bank since 1987. SWIFT is a service organisation which processes and transmits banking transactions electronically between member banks on all the five continents. Electronic systems transfer large sums around the world quickly and effectively. In this way aternational banking is being established.
But payment procedures in international trade still rely heavily on paper-based docu¬ments. And specialists say that one day all the data of invoices, shipping docu¬ments, various recepts and other documents will be provided in computer form in stead. No paper documents will be used any longer. All the information will be sent electronically. This will certainly lead to a lot of technical problems.

Our ship landed at Deep Bay.
We followed the Snake River to Crater Lake.
We crossed the lake on a raft.
Then, we walked through the Haunted Forest.
We reached Redbeard's castle.
Some pirates chased us, but we escaped and climbed the Icy Mountain.
The treasure was in a cave.

Once there were four children whose names were Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy. This story happened to them when they had to leave their home city, London, during the war. They sent to the house of an old Professor who lived in the country, ten miles from the nearest railway station. He hadn't got a wife and he lived in a very large house with a housekeeper. He himself was a very old man with white hair which grew over most of his face as well as on his head.
The children liked him almost at once. Only Lucy, who was the youngest of them, felt a little afraid of him. On their first evening, after dinner, they said good night to the Professor and went upstairs. It was the largest house they had ever seen, so Peter suggested exploring it in the morning. When the next morning came, there was a steady rain falling.
“I wish the weather was more cheerful!” said Edmund. “Stop complaining, Ed,” said Susan. “I think the weather will improvizace soon.” “We were going to explore the house,” Peter reminded them. He was eating a sandwich at the moment and was absolutely happy with the whole situation.
Everyone nodded and at that point their amazing adventures had begun.
