ADVERTISING FEATURE

Save money and keep your staff happy

It can be expensive to keep the canteen open to serve drinks to your through the day. Our QVM hot drinks machine replaces this service, so that you can close the canteen between mealtimes.

You can install the QVM hot drinks machine anywhere in the building. One machine is suitable for a staff of ten to fifteen people. It costs 1300 pounds to buy, or 11 pounds per week to rent over 60 months. It is not expensive to operate: for example, the cost of power for one day is 30p, nearly as cheap as the price of one hot drink from the machine.

Our company will carry out a weekly service, at a charge of 10 pounds. We can also refill the machine with drinks ingredients for an extra charge of 8 pounds. Some customers prefer to do this themselves, however.

There are eight choices of hot drink available from the QVM machine, and our company offers one month ’s trial free of charge, so that you can estimate how popular the machine will be and see what the actual savings are.

Part Five

●Read the following review of a book called The Bosses Speak.

●Choose the correct answer for each question 23 – 28.

●Mark one letter (A, B, or C) on your Answer Sheet.

The Bosses Speak

John Stuart is an executive recruitment specialist who has turned to writing. The result is this book, based on interviews with twenty Chief Executives.

Each top manager ---- none of them famous names, surprisingly ---- is given a short chapter, and there is some introductory material and a conclusion. This means you can jump from one person to another, in any order, which is good for people who are too busy to read a book from cover to cover. For a management book it isn’t expensive, although whether its good value for money is doubtful.

Some of the twenty interviewees started their own businesses, while others joined a company and worked their way up. Some are fairly new in their position, and others have had years of experience, though, strangely, Stuart doesn’t seem interested in these differences. The interviewees work in everything from retailing to airlines to software, and it is this variety that forms the main theme of Stuart’s book.

I have to say that Stuart’s approach annoys me. He rarely stays at a distance from his interviewees, who are mostly presented in their own, positive words. If this were always the case, at least you would know where you were. But he seems to dislike certain interviewees. As a result, I don’t know whether to accept any of his opinions.

It also means that the book gives no clear lessons. At the very least, I expected to learn what makes a successful Chief Executive. But these people seem to share two types of qualities. Some of them are very common, suggesting that anyone can be equally successful, which is definitely not the case. And the other qualities are ones which most successful bosses I have seen definitely don’t have. So in the end I am no wiser about what really goes on.

Perhaps I am being unfair. As long as you don’t think about whether you’d like them as friends, and pay no attention to most of the advice they give, the most readable parts are where the bosses describe their route to their present position.

Stuart seems to think that his book would be useful for people aiming for the top, and it might even make a few want to start their own company; but, in fact, what they could learn here is very limited. Seen as light business reading for a doctor or teacher, though, this book would provide some good entertainment.

23. The reviewer suggests that one advantage of this book is that

a. it is better value than other management books.

b. it doesn’t need to be read right through.

c. it is about well-known people.

24. The book concentrates on the fact that the twenty executives who are interviewed

a. work in a number of different industries.

b. started their companies.

c. have worked for different lengths of time.

25. The reviewer cannot accept Stuart’s opinions because Stuart

a. makes unreasonable complaints about the interviewees.

b. writes too positively about the interviewees.

c. has different attitudes towards different interviewees.

26. Reading the book made the reviewer think that

a. there are certain qualities which all Chief Executives need.

b. it is difficult to discover how people really run a company.

c. running a company is easier than many people think.

27. Which parts of the book did the reviewer most enjoy reading?

a. how the interviewees became Chief Executives.

b. what sort of people the interviewees are.

c. the advice given by the interviewees.

28. The reviewer recommends the book for people who

a. intend to set up in business

b. want to become senior mangers.

c. are outside the field of business.

Part Six

新剑桥商务英语高级习题 答案 Last revision date: 13 December 2020.

English for Business Studies Key to Unit 01: The three sectors of the economy This unit covers a lot of basic vocabulary concerning developed economies much of it in an extract from a well-known British novel. It also discusses the evolution of the economy of most of the older industrialized countries, with the decline of manufacturing industry and its replacement by services. There is an extract from a magazine interview with an economist and an interview with a British Member of Parliament on this issue. 1a Vocabulary p09 Identify the most prominent features in this photograph, which illustrates various important elements of the infrastructure of a modern industrialized country. The photo clearly shows a large factory (the Unilever factory in Warrington, England) in the center, with more factories, industrial units, or warehouses in the top right-hand corner. The large factory seems to include some office buildings. Also visible are agricultural land (in the background; the land in the foreground doesn’t appear to be cultivated), a river, a railway and several roads, and housing, perhaps with a school in the center of the housing estate top left. 1b Reading p10 What is the key point that this extract is making about economies? The text suggests that most people take for granted the amazing complexity of the economic infrastructure. 1c Comprehension p11 lines 4-7, Robyn sees examples of all three. What are they?
