عبارت انگلیسی
bank
معنی و توضیح
In this podcast, the phrase “eye bank” means a facility that stores corneas (parts of an eye) that were taken from the bodies of people who have died, and keeps them healthy until they can be used to restore sight for another person: “Does the eye bank thank the families of people who have donated their corneas?” A “blood bank” is a similar facility that stores donated blood until patients need it: “The blood bank is looking for donors with the A-positive blood type.” Finally, a “piggy bank” is a small container, traditionally in the shape of a pig, with a small opening on top, used to store coins to save up one’s money: “At the end of the day, Chuck takes whatever coins are in his pocket and puts them in a piggy bank.” 3 these materials on another website or distributing them in any way is prohibited.

[start of dialog]
Christine: What is this sticker on your driver’s license?
Saul: This sticker? It indicates that I’ve signed up for the organ donation program. If anything bad happens to me, I want my organs to go to recipients who need them.
Christine: You mean you want somebody else to have your heart, liver...
Saul: ...eyes, kidneys, or anything else that can be transplanted into someone else.
