Unit1 Meeting and Greeting PeopleModule 2 Video Watch（先睹为快）Hi-tech cameras track shoppers to help companies better market products.Key Words and Expressions1.retailer n.零售商人2.grab v. 抓3.psychology n.心理学，心理状态4.merchandise n.商品，货物5.a short fuse 比喻人们易于烦躁或焦虑6.queue n.行列，长队，队列；vi. 排队，排队等待I .Interactive Activities（互动练习）Direction: Watch the video clip for the first time and discuss the following questions or topics with other students orally.1.What are the major problems with the shopping centers in your own experience?2.Do you think it is necessary to install Hi -tech cameras to track shopping behaviors?3.In your opinion, are there any other alternatives to solve the problem in this video clip?II .Spot Dictation(听写练习）Direction:Watch the video clip carefully and fill in the blanks with the missing words.Smile, you’re on consumer behavior camera.

Are they having to wait too, too long for customer service at different points?”Consumer behavior analysis, it’s part (3) observation, part science, part technology and a bit of psychology. Rajeev Sharma’s software turns (4) images of customers working their way through stores into hard (5) data, allowing retailers to take fast action if things aren’t working out.“You can move around the merchandise to position of products so that it, it, it creates the right (6) sequence, and right products in front of the right people in the right time.”With the holiday shopping crunch, retailers know their customers have short fuses, and crowd hassles don’t help.“And you can create this kind of maps, the hot spots and the cold spots. These are extremely important because there’s no number. By just looking at this, this colored-coded map, you can see which (7) portion of this store i s receiving more attention.”And that helps retailers decide where to place display units.“After browsing, decide to interact with it, as in read labels or, or, or you know, experience it more. And finally, of course, what every product and retailer, er, the product manufacturer and retailer want you to drop it into your basket.”But it’s not all creative marketing; traffic jams at (8) checkout are often the biggest problem.“What this shows is a, is a line-forming, and something that you are very familiar with in this, this season.”Best Buy is using its own research to try to (9) shorten those lines.“We now deploy a queuing system in our stores, where all customers, they wait in a queue, and we have someday there directing traffic, so you don’t get (10) caught in the wrong line, which drives people crazy.Module 3 Listening Tasks（习耳攻听）I .Long ConversationsDialogue 1Mr. Wells, a US sports businessman, and his assistant, Ms. Porter, are visiting Shanghai.

I’ve just come back from the Turin Book Fair.F Ah!One of your favourite events.How did it go?B Oh,the fair was quite a success.We had a lot of interest in a new series of science titles that we’ve published.And I met up with some old friends.Do you rememberNuno,from Lisbon?Yes,all in all ,it was very pleasant.And I do enjoy Italian food.F It’s delicious,isn’t it?Well then ,Berndt,has this been a good year for you?B Yes,it has.We’ve done really well in Western Europe-we’ve sold more books than ever before.And we’ve started distributing in countries in Eastern Europe aswell-for example ,in Poland and Hungary.Poland is doing very well.The demand forour books has been almost as high as in Spain and Portugal.F That’s great! I can see you’ve been very busy.B Well ,of course!You know me.F So,what’s next then? I’m sure you’ve got something new planned.B Well,we’re going to move the actual printing to Slovakia.We have a new contract with a pri nting company in Bratislava.They’re going to take over about 80 per cent of our book printing next year.It’s going to cut our costs considerably,I hope.F What a coincidence! I’ve just been to Bratislava.B Well, I’m going to be there next month. I’m going to discuss the contract withthe printers.And after that, I think I’m going to take a few day’s holiday. It’s been a very busy year.5.3 Negotiating a bank loanBM O K,well, I’ve got all the paperwork here for your loan application .Everything seems to be in order.Let’s just have a look at your business plan.Perhaps you could tell me about your ideas?JH Yes,of course.We plan to make fruit drinks,from 100 per cent fruit-no extrasugar,or additives or ‘E’ numbers.At the moment,we’ve only got a couple of flavours,strawberry and pear,but we want to expand our range to include more flavours.BM Y ou say that you’ve got some f lavours.Have you already started making and selling your drinks?JH Only on a small scale,but they’re selling really well and we can’t keep up with demand.BM Right,so why exactly do you want a loan?Are you going to expand your range orincrease you production?JH Well,both,we hope.BM And how do you plan to sell the drinks?Direct to the public?JH No,we’re going to sell through other companies.You know,in cafés,snack bars,at outlets in airports and railway stations.We’ve already had talks with the catering company that runs the ‘Travel Snack’chain.They’re going to stock our drinks intheir main outlets/BM And are you going to be able to expand quickly?JH I think so,because we’re going to keep everything simple.We plan to use the same basic plastic bottles that we’ve used until now,and we’re going to use the fruitthat is easily available locally.Our production process is very simple too.BM OK,what about your market?Who do you think is going to be your main market?JH So far most of our customers have been young people-you know,students,teenagers,people who are interested in drinking something healthy and natural .So we’re going to try to consolidate that market. I don’t think it’s a good idea to change our strategy at the moment.BM What kind of marketing have you done?JH A friend of ours has designed a great website for us,and I think we’re going to focus on the Internet for the moment.BM OK,so let’s look at these figures in more detail…Module 66.1 Flight problems1We got to the airport 30 minutes before the plane was due to take off,and we wentstraight to the check-in desk.First,the man at the desk said that the plane wasalready full because the flight was overbooked ,so we couldn’t get on.But then he changed his story.He said there were empty seats on the plane,but wewere late and the check-in desk was closed.So we missed our plane and we had to buy two tickets for another flight.You see,if the flight is overbooked,they give youa seat on a later one-but if you arrive late,you lose your money. I bet the man atthe desk was lying.2I called the airline to ask if my flight was on time ,and the man said that theremight be a delay because of the snow,But when I arrived at the airport ,there wereno flights.The woman at the information desk told me to go back to my hotel andwait.She said they were going to close the airport,and she didn’t know for how long.3I couldn’t complain about anything.The airline sent a taxi to collect me from myhotel.At the airport,they took me s traight to the desk to check my c ase in. I didn’t have to wait.Then they let me sit in the First Class Lounge,even though I didn’ｔhave a first class ticket.The woman i n the lounge said she would bring me some food from the buffet if I was hungry .Then ,when it was time to go ,they pushed mywheelchair all the way to my seat on the plane ,And during the flight,they couldn’t do enough for me.4There’s one every week.If it’s not the baggage handlers,it’s the flight attendants,or even the pilots .The last time I travelled,it was the air trafficcontrollers.Oh ,but they weren’t stopping for the whole day,just for four hours,just long enough to cause absolute chaos .The announcement said there wouldbe no cancellations that day ,only delays.But that meant that I missed my connecting flight in Frankfurt and had to fly out to Chile the following day.6.2 At the hotel1R Good afternoon.Carlton Hotel.How may I help you?G Yes,hello. I’m phoning to check if my online booking went through . I haven’t received any confirmation.R When did you make your booking?G Last Tuesday,the 14th.R Could I have your name,please?G Yes,it’ｓ Johanson.。

商务职场英语Unit-1-4-(课文录音稿)

Martha: I think it’s time we started thinking about our future and making decisions about what we want to do when we finish this course.John: Oh, Martha, you’re always so serious! We still have two months before we take our final exams. Martha: I know, but you can’t just suddenly wake up the day you finish college and find a job. You need to plan.John: You’re right, of course. But where do we start? The course we’re taking is General Business and there are so many choices like Human Resources, Sales, Marketing, Finance, and so on. And I’m not even sure what I’m interested in.Martha: Yes, I know. There’s a lot to think about, but maybe we can start by thinking about our specific interests in Business. For example, I think that you should go into Marketing.John: I’ve thought about that too, but I’m not sure. I suppose we should think about our different strengths and weaknesses in each area. A job in Human Resources or Management would probably suit you. You are bossy—you just love telling people what to do!Martha: Hey, that’s not true. It’s just that I like organizing people and I think I’m pretty good at it. John: Well, build on your strengths. I think we should also have a look at some ads and find out what kinds of jobs are out there in the real world.Martha: Okay. Let’s buy the newspaper every day this week and look at job ads in Business. We could also go to some companies and find out what skills and qualifications are needed for each department.John: Good plan. I think maybe we should go to see our college counselor too. She may have some useful advice for us.Martha: Let’s do that. I’ll call her office tomorrow and see when we can get an appointment. I’ll arrange for both of us to see her.John: Great! I’ve got to hurry. I have a class in ten m inutes. Bye.Martha: Okay. See you later.T-3Mrs. Mills: Good afternoon, Martha and John. It’s goodto find students who are thinking about how to get a job.Basically, it’s a process and certain steps need to be followed. Let me take you through the most important ones.**But before we even begin we need to focus your search by matching your interests with your skills, abilities, personality,①training, and qualifications.Now, I see from your files here that you are both taking General Business courses and will graduate in June. The field of Business is very broad, ②so we need to think of your particular strengths and what you do and do not enjoy doing.**For example, if either of you like working with and helping other people you would probably enjoy a career in Human Resources. The responsibility of the Human Resources employee is t o③match the person with the position. Recruitment can be done externally when a new employee is brought into the company or internally from within the company, which might involve promotion. The HR department also looks after staff development, welfare, and motivation. In other words, here you try to keep everyone happy.Now if that’s not you and you think you would enjoy the more aggressive side of the business world, there is sales and marketing.④There your focus is the customer and convincing him to buy and for this kind of job you need to be tough.And, of course, if you like precision and attention to detail, there is the world of finance.⑤This kindof job includes the many aspects of calculating expenses, profits, revenue, and of course, investment. You are going to have to give this some thought and not only about the jobs themselves, but the kinds of companies where you can work, which will make these jobs vary.In the meantime, I can get you started on the form-filling, CV writing, and tips for interviewing. So shall we begin?T-4Martha: John, remember Mrs. Mills talked about strengths and weaknesses? I’ve seen those on the applications and find it really hard to look at myself and decide what my strengths and weaknesses are.John: I know, my brother said it’s a matter of finding the balance between selling yourself and what you are good at, but not making yourself sound perfect. In other words, you need to be a bit critical of yourself without overdoing it. OK, so let’s think and help each other out.Martha: Well, John,I think you are really good at networking. **You have a way with people and making contacts that I think would be very good in sales and marketing.John: Wow, thanks, Martha. You’re normally not so nice to me. As for you, I think your skills are organizational. You are very good at planning and seeing things through. This is definitely one of my weak areas. I think I’m just a bit lazy about getting myself moving.Martha: Well, John, I don’t think it’s a good idea to tell a prospective employer that you’re lazy. You can’t completely hide the negative, but you need to put it in a more positive way. How about saying that you might be considered a bit disorganized, but that’s beca use you focus on the communication side of the task and you’re working on your organizational skills.As for myself, I could say that some people might say that I’m impatient, but this may be because I have a lot of drive and enthusiasm to get the job done. **I still organize myself and check everything as I go along.T-5HR Manager: Your resume is a very important document and with your application and cover letter it’s the employer’s first introduction to you, and the measure of your suitability for the j ob. Remember that employers receive a lot of applications, so you have to make all your documents as readable and as user-friendly as possible.The layout of your resume should be in a simple font, 11 or 12 point in Times New Roman or Arial script. Your contact details should be up-to-date and the e-mail address serious and not too much of an attention-grabber.We generally advise people not to include age and marital status because some people object to being asked these questions. Likewise, you don’t have to include information about your religion though sometimes this question may appear on the application form. It’s advisable to include all information about your work experience, including temporary and part-time jobs since this will give the employer some insight into your background in dealing with customers and working as part of a team. Of course, give all relevant information about your education and include details on your involvement in sports and volunteer work, too, because this shows your personality. Of course, you should read the job ad carefully and follow the instructions given there. Make sure that you get approval from your references before including their names on your resume.Any questions?T-6Manager: Jane, what was your overall impression of the applicants?Jane: I was impressed with both, but for very different reasons.Manager: Yes, I agree. Applicant 1 has quite a lot of experience—overall 20 years, but is a little shortin academic qualifications.Jane: Yes, that’s true whereas Applicant 2 has an M.A. in HR, and a very recent one, as well as a General Business degree. It’s very important to have up-to-date theoretical knowledge. Manager: You’re right about that, but on the experience side don’t you think she’s a little weak? Jane: Of course, but she’s worked at that mortgage company, which has given her some experience on the financial side of things whereas Applicant 1 has had more experience, but in more general situations.Manager: True, but look at the wide range of responsibili ties he’s had in very important HR areas at management levels.Jane: But we’re looking for someone who’s a team player and that’s probably easier for a person who’s new in the workplace. I wonder about the flexibility of a person who’s been in management f or so long.Manager: Let’s invite them both for an interview and keep these questions in mind as we’re interviewing.Jane: Good plan. I’ll call them and make arrangements.T-7John: Can I send an e-mail instead of a cover letter with my application?Teacher: Yes, of course, if an e-mail address is included in the ad. Martha: I know we use e-mail all the time and chat to each other, but①can I use it in the same way for business communication? Teacher: No, definitely not. There are certain rules you have to follow—we call it e-mail etiquette and it’s important that you follow all these conventions.Martha: Sometimes we don’t use an opening greeting in our e-mails. Is that OK for business e-mail? Teacher:②You should always open with a greeting and end with a final salutation. When you don’t know the person, use the same opening as you would for a letter, that is. Dear so and so . . .④Make sure you add your signature at the end. If you’re sending an e-mail to a colleague or friend you can just use the person’s name.John: What about length? I don’t like reading from the computer screen and③I hate it when I get a long e-mail.Teacher: I think most of us feel like you, John. It’s good to stick to one page—no more than a letter-sized page if printed out. You should use paragraphs as well.⑤When you look at the cover letter you see it’s divided into paragraphs—you should do the same on the e-mail.John:⑥Can I depend on the computer to do the spell-check and grammar-check?Teacher: No, not really because, as you know, that feature is not always available on the e-mail program so make sure you check and edit it yourself.⑦Remember also that it’s OK to add gimmicky things like smiley faces when e-mailing friends and family, but never in a business e-mail.T-8Speaker: Knowing how to prepare and behave is one of the keys to a successful interview. First impressions are based on appearance, so it is very important to pay attention to how you dress.①Wear clothes that are fashionable, but appropriate and②never show up for an interview in flashy loud clothing. This gives a very poor impression and possibly causes interviewers not to take you seriously. Remember, before you go to the interview,③do your homework and find out all you can about the company.

It’s important to remember that though your purpose is to inform and share with your audience, you should select what they can comfortably deal with in a single sitting and not overload them with minute details. The next thing you must ensure is that you arrive organized for your presentation with your notes in order. The content should be organized in a logical way and you should inform your audience of this layout in your introduction. Make sure you do not wander into asides and unrelated comments. Stick to the main point. Also, it’s important to establish a good rapport with the audience and to make eye contact with your listeners. Don’t shout or whisper, but speak clearly and loud enough for everyone to hear. Keep your voice at a comfortable speed. Finally, conclude by summing up the essential points and then ask if anyone has any questions.T-13Presenter #1: Hi, everyone. Good to see you all here and thanks for coming along. I hope you will find my topic interesting and not boring. Okay, let’s start, shall we? Can you all sit down and listen, please? Right now, where are my notes? Hmm . . . they’re in a bit of a mess. Hang on a minute while I get organized.Presenter #2: Good afternoon, everyone! Welcome and thank you for coming along to the presentation.Today, I would like to look at some recent trends in the sales of organic produce, especially through supermarket outlets. The talk will last about forty minutes and then we will have about ten minutes at the end for discussion, so please save your questions until then.Presenter #3: So, we’ve looked at how the Organix Company got started and we have considered one of their principal achievements. Before considering their other two important accomplishments, let’s take a quick look at the management structure of the company. Now does anyone have any suggestions as to what those two other accomplishments are?T-14Kathy: Good morning. Furniture Wholesalers. Can I help you?Benson: Hi. This is Craig Benson here from Hooliers Hotel.Kathy: Oh, hi, Mr. Benson. How are you? It’s been a while.Benson: Yes, hasn’t it? I think it’s been over a year since we talked. How’s business?Kathy: Very good. We’ve expanded. We opened a new warehouse about six months ago and took onfive new employees.Benson: That’s great! I hope you are not too busy to fill our order. We’ve expanded also and need lot s of new furniture.Kathy: Oh, that’s great. So how can we help you?Benson: Well, first I need to know if we can have a rush on this order since it’s coming up to summer.We need to have it delivered before May 15.Kathy: I’ll have to check with deliveries. Let me know what you need and then I’ll get back to you. Benson: Fine. Right, let’s see—10 double beds, 20 single beds, 30 closets and matching dressers.That’ll do for now but I think we’ll also need some dining room furniture.Kathy: Okay, that’s 10, 20, 30, and 30. Let me call you back in an hour or so after I’ve checked delivery availability. Then I can get all the details for delivery if it is possible.T-16Sales: . . . so, I’ll need to set up a new account for you, especially if you say that you want to becomea regular customer. First of all, let me have the name and address of your business.Buyer: Okay, the name of the restaurant is Totally Natural and the address is 43 Riverside Way, Delham.Sales: Delham . . . Right, that’s just inside the li mit of our delivery service. Now just give me an account number that we can use for all our transactions. With this number, it’ll be easy to find your account details each time you call.Buyer: I see. Okay, let’s use 1979. It’s easy to remember as it’s the year I was born.Sales: Okay. We put TF in front of that, which stands for Truck Freight. So, when you call, please quote TF-1979, which is your purchase order number. Now what can we prepare for you today? Buyer: Today we need 5 pounds of cauliflower, 10 pounds of potatoes, and 8 pounds of onions. Sales: Right. That, according to our codes, is 5 x #05, 10 x #04, and 8 x #02. Items will be delivered first thing tomorrow morning.T-17Situation 1Customer 1: Hi, I was in your store last week and I bought myself a jacket. I wore it for a few days, but I really didn’t like the color. I’m wondering if I can exchange it or get my money back.Situation 2Customer 2: Good morning. I’m calling about the digital camera that I bought yesterday. When I tried to use i t today the zoom lens didn’t work.I’d like to return the camera and get a replacement or talk with someone who knows something about the camera who can perhaps guide me through the process.Situation 3Customer 3: Hi, there. I just picked up a TV at your store yesterday afternoon and when I was taking it out of the car it sort of accidentally fell. It looks okay, but the picture is pretty fuzzy. Do you think I can have someone look at it or get a replacement or a refund?T-18Situation 1Customer: Good afternoon. I would like to speak with the manager, please.Salesperson: Why? What’s your problem?Customer: Well, I bought this DVD here three weeks ago and have had several problems with it in that short time. Each time, I bring it back here, someone looks at it, adjusts something, and saysit’s okay. But then when I get home it doesn’t work.Salesperson: Hmm . . . Are you sure you know how to operate this machine?Customer: Young man, I’ve been a customer at this store for several years and no one has ever spoken to me like this before.Salesperson: Okay, okay. I’ll get someone to have a look at it.Situation 2Customer: I’m returning this jacket because it’s not really the right fit and it’s sort of heavy. Salesperson: I’m very sorry, sir, but that jacket w as bought during the sales and the store policy is no refunds on goods bought during salesCustomer: Oh, be reasonable! It’s just a jacket. I’m sure you still have some others inside. Surely you can exchange just one jacket.Salesperson: Sir, it’s impossible. Our policy clearly states “No exchange on sale items.” I can’t do anything to help you, I’m afraid.Customer: Oh, this is ridiculous! I’m never going to shop here again!Situation 3Customer: I just bought this new TV and when I got home it didn’t work.Salesperson: Okay, if you could wait a moment, I’ll have someone look at it.Customer: Look, I have been waiting for five minutes! I can’t stand here all day. I have to get back to work. Listen to me. I need this TV to be fixed right now or I need a replacement Salesperson: Please stop yelling. The service manager is busy right now and so you’ll have to wait. Customer: I’m not going to put up with any more of this. Call the manager right now!T-19Speaker: The Internet has expanded our choices of where and when to shop, but it also has its hazards.Here are some things that you should think about before becoming an Internet shopper.It is safer to buy from reputable companies, so do a little research on the company before making your purchase. Check carefully all the contact details of the company. Look for a street address and a landline telephone number, not just an e-mail address. Also, consider any extra costs—things like shipping costs and taxes—that you may have to pay and decide if it’s actually wo rthwhile buying online.Generally, people pay for online goods with credit cards. Make sure that the site is secure. At the bottom of the page, you should see a small “s”—which stands for “secure”—along with a picture of a padlock. Make sure you keep copies of the order form and the acknowledgement notice that you receive.When you buy online, you have the same legal rights as when you buy in a store. However, it’s very important to read all the terms and conditions of the sale before you buy.Always check your bank statement after making a purchase and make sure that only the amount that you paid has been deducted from your balance.Each country has its own consumer affairs offices that should be able to advise you if you find that you have been cheated while shopping online. The most important thing to remember is “If in doubt, don’t buy.”T-20Speaker: Companies advertise their products for three main reasons.①The first reason is simply to inform the public that a particular product or service exists. This type of advertisement gives factual information about a product, provides price details and information about any special offers. This is called informative advertising and it concentrates on just giving the essential details. It’s often used to give in formation about household products that people buy regularly.②The second type is persuasive advertising and its function is to convince people to buy aproduct or service. The advertisement tries to achieve this by telling people that the product or service will bring beneficial changes to their lives. This often happens with cosmetic products where a person is persuaded that a certain face cream will rid them of wrinkles and make their skin look fresh and young. Services like cosmetic surgery work on the same principle.③The third type of advertising is known as competitive advertising because the purpose here is to convince people that a particular company’s products or services are better than any other produced by its competitors. In some countries, companies are allowed to mention their competitors by name in their advertising. In other countries, this is not permitted.T-21Speaker: Branding, like marketing, is as old as the concepts of ownership and selling. In former times, people branded an item simply to show who the owner was and, of course, this is still one reason behind branding. In the past, a mark was placed on the ear of a sheep or cow to identify the owner. In the same way, the earliest craftsmen put a simple mark on a product to show ownership. This was often just the craftsman’s name, in the same wa y that a painter still signs a painting. The marketplace was somewhere you went to get your practical needs and the sign or brand indicated the person who could satisfy those needs.In the 21st century, brands are more likely to signal the availability of a product, but their role has changed quite a lot. While still indicating where a product can be found, the scope of the brand is much wider now and is often associated with certain qualities the product may have. In addition, certain brands have become status symbols, particularly among young people. This can be seen in all kinds of goods such as sportswear, shoes, T-shirts, and even in services where a hotel brand does not indicate just a bed for the night, but a whole host of associated luxuries.T-22Speaker: Good morning, everyone. Well, I think we are all clear by now about the importance of knowing as much as possible about potential customers and possible competition from other companies when we set out to market a new product. Today, I want to look at the different ways we collect data. We want to find out all we can about consumers’ income, likes, dislikes, and where they live. We also need to investigate our competitors’ prices and methods of advertising.There are two ways of getting this information. The first is through primary research and this involves getting out there and talking to people. We prepare a questionnaire that considers the likes, dislikes, and income levels of consumers, and we try to find out what newspapers and magazines they read. This information can also be gathered via a phone interview. We can also make note of what shoppers buy when they go out as well as using television panels where consumers and retailers give feedback.The other type of research requires less physical effort and is often referred to as secondary research. Sales reports and trade figures are analyzed for existing information Magazines, newspapers, and government publications as well as Internet searches provide useful data. So let’s consider some of these in more detail . . .Tom: I hate these monthly meetings! They are just a waste of time even though I know it does give usa chance to talk things over face to face. Today I have a lot of work on my desk.Monica: Well, you do have a point, Tom, but I think meetings do help us clear up some *ambiguous issues that might be troubling people. You have to admit that in this company management is very fair and through these meetings they keep us well *briefed on new proposals and developments. Tom: Well, I guess you’re right. I’ve worked at other places where staff is never included in decision-making but that’s certainly not true here and we do have lots of opportunities to give our feedback.Monica: I’m glad you’re coming round to seeing the benefits, Tom. Remember also we get a chance to be involved in the planning stages and *input our views on the whole process.Tom: Okay, got it, but these meetings always come at a bad time for me when I have lots of work going on.T-26Steiner: Lisa, I’d really like to get this agenda ready and out to the staff by tomorrow morning. Can you type it up for me, please?Lisa: Certainly, Mr. Steiner. Could we just run through the items that you want me to include? Steiner: Well, the first thing is to get the minutes of the last meeting out of the way and any questions that might crop up from those.Lisa: Don’t forget that there are two new staff members to be introduced.Steiner:Yes, that’s important. Thank you for reminding me. We’ll welcome them immediately after the apologies for absences.Lisa: Right. Okay, I’ve got all that.。

Today I’m here to talk about how to make effective business calls. Telephone communication is common nowadays, therefore, how to 1) ensure smooth business communication gets increasingly important. Now I’d like to introduce some tips on mak ing proper business calls. First, you should know 2) the purpose of your call in advance. Make sure you have 3) all the documents you’ll need before you dial. One important thing we should not overlook is time schedule. Try to 4) schedule a specific time for calls. Before you make the call, be sure that you get rid of 5) all distractions. For example, turn off the radio, television, etc. When making the call, listen carefully and 6) confirm that you have understood each point. Don’t pretend you have understood when you haven’t. Another thing we should keep in mind is: let other people speak and try to avoid 7) interruptions. Speaking slowly and clearly is important. Try to avoid 8) strong accent. Besides, make sure 9) you sound polite and agreeable. Remember that you should not argue! Use 10) the optional choice method, such as “Which is better, Monday or Tuesday?”, “Morning or afternoon?”, “Ten or eleven a.m.”? And, of course, try to make your call brief. Avoid 11) lengthy calls. Additionally, don’t try to be funny—you may be misunderstood. The last tip you should bear in mind is to 12) smile while you are talking. Your listener can “hear” your smile.Part II Listening and SpeakingTask 1 Making a callScript:Key:F F T T F T F FTask 2 Leaving a messageKey:Message NoteTo: Louise PaulsonFrom: Paul JacksonPhone: 979-326-8965Message: Ring back to him about the order they placed lastFriday.

Scripts Unit 1Part II Listening and SpeakingTask 1 FAQs in job interviewComments on the three questions:Point for Q 1: Tell me something about yourself.Sample answers:Q1.I am graduating in June from ABC University and my major is hotel management. I am an outgoing, energetic person. I enjoy teamwork very much. As part of my degree program, I needed to finish different projects with my teammates. I possess excellent interpersonal skills and a very positive attitude. My career aspiration is to become a successful hotelier（旅馆经理）. During my internship at the Grand Hyatt(君悦酒店), I worked as a receptionist. My duties included offering friendly and efficient check-in and check-out service to guests, answering phone calls, taking and passing on massages to guests. I find that if I can make the guests happy, I will be very happy, too.Q2.I received honors in several school-wide English and computer contests. I enjoy working with people from different backgrounds. I am good at communicating, organizing and coordinating. If something blocks my path, I will look for a solution. I never give up easily.Sometimes I receive comments that I need to improve in the area of filing(文件归档). I am now trying to improve by learning from others.Q3.Interest and career development are two of my criteria in the choosing a job. Interest is the best motivation. I love the hotel business, so I will definitely devote myself to it. Moreover, high job satisfaction can be attained when the job is what I am interested in.Career development is very important for me when choosing a job. From what I know, Shangri-La provides equal career advancement for all staff. The job rotation(轮换)plan and individually tailored(定做的)training program are really exciting and helpful for young people like me.Task 2 Inappropriate questions in job interviewScript:M: Come in, please.W: Good morning, sir. I’m Karen Yang.M: Good morning, Miss Yang. I’m Kevin Carter, the Administration Manager. Take a seat, please.W: Oh, is that your wife, Mr. Carter? She is so beautiful.M: Thank you. Ah… Miss Yang, I’ve gone through your resume. I’d like to ask you some questions now, if you don’t mind.W: Of course not. Please go ahead.M: Well, can you tell me why you would like to work as a medical representative with us?W: I really like this kind of work, and having been a doctor for three years, I want to apply for this position for a change.M: Don’t you think it’s a pity for you to leave your present job?W: To some extent, it is. I have learned a lot in the hospital. But I would like to try a different kind of life. By the way, could you tell me how much the new job pays? M: Sure. There is a five-month probationary period(试用期) and you can only get RMB2,000 for each month. After that, we’ll determine your salary according to your performance.W: Oh, I see. Then, what about the paid holidays, insurance, and things like that? M: Every employee in our company enjoys life insurance(人寿保险) and unemployment insurance. In addition, they enjoy two-week paid holidays.W: That sounds fine. How much time will it take for me to be promoted here?M: I’m not sure. It depends on your ability and performance. Maybe we’ll send you to one of our branches, if you like.W: No problem. I hate staying at one place all the time. But in which cities do you have your branches? And, where is your company based (把总部设在…)?M: Our company is based in New York, with branches in many cities, such as Philadelphia, Beijing and London.…Key:Is that your wife, Mr. Carter? She is so beautiful.Avoid asking interviewer personal questions or making personal comments.Could you tell me how much the new job pays?The interviewer might infer from these questions that you are only interested in your own needs and not those of their company. Wait until the employer raises these subjects to discuss them.What about the paid holidays, insurance, and things like that?How much time will it take for me to be promoted here?But in which cities do you have your branches? And where is your company based?It is also unwise to ask about things you should have already known. You are only telling the interviewer that you haven't done your homework.Part IV Viewing and SpeakingVideo 1 Applying for the position of financial consultantScript:Chen: Good morning, Ms Mandel.Ms. Mandel: Good morning, sit down, please.Chen: Thank you!Ms. Mandel: You are Chen Bo, aren’t you?

For example, I know I must first analyze the problem and work out the major cause. Then I will be able to search for ways to solve it from available data.Ms. Mandel: Sometimes data is not enough. Have you got any relevant experience in this field?Chen: Last year, during the probationary period, I was involved in the restoration of a factory in Nanjing, I really learned a lot from the experience, especially how to access评估people’s strengths and abilities.Ms. Mandel: Can you cope with hard work under pressure and in a tough environment?Chen: No problem, I don’t care about pressure or the environment as long as I enjoy the work.Ms. Mandel: Good. Now, do you have any questions to ask?Chen: Yes, I’ve got one. Are there any opportunities for Chinese employees to be transferred to the head office in New York or other branch offices around the world? Ms. Mandel: Um, probably. I think you are likely to be sent to work in an overseas branch to get experience later on once you’ve proved your worth.Chen: Oh, great. If I’m accepted, I will do my best for the company.Ms. Mandel: I wish you luck! We’ll notify you of our final decision by Friday. Chen: Thank you! Ms. Mandel. Good-bye.Ms. Mandel: Goodbye.Key:Reasons for joining the companyIt is one of the leading international consultant corporations which came to China after China entered WTO.Working in this company would give him the best chance to use what he has learned at university.Relevant work experienceHe was involved in a factory restoration in Nanjing.QuestionsAre there any opportunities for Chinese employees to be transferred to the headoffice in New York or other branch offices around the world?Result of the interviewChen Bo will be notified of the final decision by Friday.Video 2 Applying for the position of Sales ManagerScript:Wang: May I come in?Mr. White: Yes, please do.Wang: Good morning, sir.

所以把一些比较基本的社交英语以及简单的商务知识放在"入门"篇里学习，比如如何得体的进行"自我介绍"，如何"接听电话"，"收发传真"，"描述产品"以及基本的商务信函写作等等内容。

相信在"入门篇"里的学习使你可以应付外企环境中最基本的工作内容！现在我们就开始"入门"吧，说"入门"自然还要从学会得体的"自我介绍"开始，1. First Meetings 初次见面先预习一下本课中涉及的一些知识点吧：assistant 助理clerk 职员favorable impression 良好印象Personnel Manager 人事经理Managing Director（MD）总裁I'm new.我是新来的。
