2021银行校园招聘每日一练1.21(二)
Our rates on certificate of deposits are among the best in the industry. The rate may vary on day-to-day basis. For CD’s of above $250,000.00, the interest is simple i.e. not compound; therefore, annual percentage yield is same as annual interest rate. The interest is payable on the day of maturity of deposit. Interest paid during the year is reported to Internal Revenue Services. For today’s rates please refer to Current Rates of Interest on STAR CDs.
Maturity Period: Flexible to your needs.
You may choose any maturity date with a minimum period of 7 days to a maximum period of 1 year to suit your needs. Your CD is automatically renewed for the same period in absence of any other instruction, at the ruling rate of interest on the date of renewal. There is no graee period for automatic renewal of deposits on maturity. For deposits issued for 1 year or more, we send maturity notices to the depositors 2 to 4 weeks before the due date.

【答案】B。选非题。B选项，由“You may choose any maturity date with a minimum period of 7 days to a maximum period of 1 year to suit your needs. “可知选择到期日由时间范围7天-1年而非任意选择，B选项错误。A选项，由”The minimum amount accepted is USD 2000”可知A选项正确; C选项，由“The rate may vary on day-to-day basis.”可知利率会每日有所变动，C选项正确;D选项，由“Additional amounts deposited into an account will be treated as fresh deposits & separate certificate of deposits will be issued for such deposits”可知额外的存款会有单独的存款证明，D选项正确。B选项符合题意。ACD不合题意。故本题应选B。

There is on other penalty or charge on early withdrawal.”可知提前取现是允许的，但是会有相应的处罚和收费。C选项符合题意，ABD选项错误。故本题应选C。
