Chapter1Learning Aims学完本章，学生应能：1．对当今社会的商务信函的几种形式有所了解；2．了解商务信函基本的布局、格式、组成，以及写作原则；3．学会写信封；4．了解其他常见通信方式，如Skype和MSN。

Background Information在当今世界，商务通信的基本原则是尽可能以最简洁的方式交换信息，以便做好生意。

书面、口头、可视化和多媒体通信的所有目标，是传递明确和深思熟虑的信息。

了解如何在这种目标下撰写商业信函，是最重要的事情之一。

技术的发展，使得商业沟通因为传真、电子邮件和其他通信方法（如Skype和MSN），变得更容易，也迫使业务人员以更快、更清晰的方式进行沟通。

虽然今天电子邮件使用最为频繁，它们使商业书信变得更随意，但仍有需要我们撰写正式商业信函的场合。

这两者其实有许多共同的写作原则。

一旦学会了如何写正式的文书，你可以很容易地了解随意的文书。

譬如，其中一些共同原则是：（1）适当的称呼依旧是两种文书礼仪的不可或缺的一部分。

（2）了解如何撰写包括介绍、支持和结束段落的主体，可有助于有效地说明商业观点。

（3）使用沟通策略——从有说服力的短语到适当的措辞——帮助说服或安抚对方。

Unit 1 Business IntroductionBackground caseWarm-up questions1.What accounts for Donald Trump’s business success?2.What can business bring about?3.Please illustrate “attitude is sometimes everything” with Donald Trump’s case.Background InformationDonald J. Trump is a graduate of the Wharton School of Finance and started his business career in an office he shared with his father. In August of 2006, Mr. Trump was voted by BusinessWeek magazine as “the world’s most competitive businessperson.”In New York City, the Trump signature is synonymous with the most prestigious of addresses, among them the world-renowned Fifth Avenue skyscraper, Trump Tower, the Trump International Hotel & Tower, voted the best U.S. Hotel by Conde Nast Traveler, Trump World Tower at the United Nations Plaza, 40 Wall Street, and Trump Park Avenue.In a departure from his real estate acquisitions, Mr. Trump and the NBC Television Network are partners in the ownership and broadcast rights for the three largest beauty competitions in the world: the Miss Universe, Miss USA and Miss Teen USA Pageants. He is also the star and executive producer of the hit television series, “The Apprentice,” which has received national and worldwide attention. In the summer of 2004, his radio program on Clear Channel made its debut and broke all syndication records.Mr. Trump has authored seven books, all of which became bestsellers. Trump Magazine was launched in 2004, Trump University Online in 2005, and the Donald J. Trump licensing program. In 2006, , an online travel agency, made its debut, as did Trump Productions in Los Angeles.Eleven Questions With Donald Trump1.Question: If you, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Herb Kelleher and Larry Ellison got maroonedon a desert island, who would end up running the place and who would end up as dinner?Answer: We would find a way to order in and have a productive meeting at the same time.2.Question: How long would Larry and Sergei, the co-founders of Google, last on yourshow?Answer: That would depend on whether they were good team players and if they had an original idea or two.3.Question: Would you fire your son or daughter?Answer: Yes, if they deserved it, but fortunately they are well prepared for their positions, so I doubt they would ever merit being fired.4.Question: What do you do to chill out?Answer: Playing golf provides me with my version of chilling out, plus I develop golfc ourses, so it’s a productive way to spend my chill time.5.Question: At the end of our life, what do you want to be remembered for?Answer: As a builder who has enhanced the cities and communities where I have built and/or developed.6.Question: What’s the difference between the Donald Trump on “The Apprentice” and theDonald Trump in every day business meetings?Answer: Business meetings are more about negotiation skills whereas “The Apprentice”falls into the job interview or audition category. I have business meetings with people who are looking to do business, not people who are looking for a job. My attitude on “The Apprentice” is as an employer looking at possible future employees. I don’t look to mold any of my business associates.7.Question: If you could apprentice with anyone in history, who would it be?Answer: My father was a great mentor. He’d be hard to replace.8.Question: Not many people make billions, lose billions, and then make billions all overagain. How did you pull this off?Answer: To me it was a blip, not a catastrophe. I knew I was destined to succeed, and I kept focused on that belief. I’m very tenacious...and I don’t give up.9.Question: If you graduated from Wharton in 2006 instead of in the 1960s, what industrywould you go into?Answer: Real estate. I love it and it still exists as a career and as a viable passion.10.Question: What do you think of two guys in a garage showing amateur videos selling outfor $1.7 billion?Answer: I’d say they had a great idea—my hat’s off to them.11.Question: TV is TV, real life is real life: What’s the most important real-life advice youcan give to an entrepreneur?Answer: You have to love what you do. Without passion, great success is hard to come by. An entrepreneur will have tough times if he or she isn’t passionate about what they’re doing. People who love what they’re doing don’t give up. It’s never even a consideration. It’s a pretty simple formula.New words: 1. subsequent, 2. boom, 3. anonymous, 4. domination, 5. preoccupation, 6. ethos, 7. pervade, 8. cede, 9. obsessive, 10. frugality1.subsequent= adj. following in time or order; succeeding●Subsequent events proved me wrong. 后来发生的事证明我错了。
