I work for quite a relaxed company and they don't seem to mind how I use it for leisure.Speaker 2I thought it wouldn't change the way I worked after the first six months, but as they got older it actually became more complicated with getting them to school or if they wanted to do activities in the afternoon. But my boss has been really good about it and some days I can do a half day if I want and then I might work later on other days - or I take work home, which I don't like doing, but it's the only way... Speaker 3 It's actually the law now so they had to let me have it. It was only two weeks but at least I had time to help my wife out. Mind you, after all the late nights and crying I was really happy to get back to work for a while and have a rest!Speaker 4I've just been promoted from Assistant IT Technician to Chief Operational Network Administrator. It means I get a bit of a pay rise and new business cards with my name on. I'm not sure if I get my own office though.Speaker 5The problem for me is that I won't have enough to live on when I'm 60 and I can't afford a private plan.

They need to create the questions they asked during the interviews with Kim Moloney and Carole Palmer. The article offers clues as to the tense needed for each question.

Suggest they also re-read the information on the present perfect and present perfect continuous in Module 1. Remind students that we tend not to use continuous forms with stative verbs. Also point out that verbs like work and live can often be used in the present perfect and present perfect continuous form with little change in meaning. The main change in emphasis is that the continuous form emphasises that the action is ongoing. You could also draw these timelines on the board to help clarify the meaning:Past simplePast NowX ↑Present perfectPastNowPresent perfect continuousPast Now4) Students underline the correct verb form.

Elicit the process, eg Where did you find out about the job? Did you have to write a letter or fill in a form? This task resembles the format for Part Two of the Writing Test with students being given a text and then some handwritten notes. Ask students to underline key information. Make sure they realise that they must include the handwritten notes and stay within the word limit. If you are short of time this could be set as homework. If it is done in class, students could work in pairs and draft the letter together.Possible answerDear Sir or Madam,I saw your advert for the post of Personal Assistant to Overseas Sales Manager in yesterday's newspaper and I would like to apply for the position.As you can see from my attached CV, I have been working for a travel agency for the last six months, which I have really enjoyed.

Please note that my current manager has agreed to write me a reference. I look forward to hearing from you.Yours faithfully(students' name)Module 2.2 Presenting your companyCompany termsVocabulary1) This activity checks that students know some key vocabulary before starting. The definitions are in the information files on pages 126 and 131, or students can check in their dictionaries.During the task, make sure students know how to pronounce all the words. It may be helpful to drill the word stress in these words:distribution, warehouse, headquarters, subsidiary, corporation, division.PresentationsListening2) 2.2 For this first listening, students only need to listen out for the words in exercise 1.Answersheadquarters corporation divisions2.2 Listening scriptExtract 1 Good morning and thanks for coming. Today I'd like to tell you about the world's largest document management company. With a turnover of nearly sixteen billion dollars the Xerox Corporation develops and markets innovative technologies with products and solutions that customers depend upon to get the best results for their business. In my brief presentation we'll begin by looking at some of the key figures behind the company's success and how the company is structured. Then I'll give an overview of Xerox around the world and finally I'd like to talk about some of the trends affecting out market and its future growth. If you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer them at the end. So, here you can see, the turnover for last year was nearly sixteen billion dollars, with a final income of 978 million dollars. We operated from our headquarters in Rochester New York State in 160 countries with 55,000 employees, with over half of those in the USA. This next chart shows you how the corporation is splitinto four divisions. First of all there's Xerox Global Services...Extract 2And finally there's Xerox Innovation with five centres in the United States, Canada and Europe. Note that six percent of revenue was dedicated to research and development last year as the key part of our mission statement is, and I quote, "to help people find better ways to do great work." OK, let's move on to look at Xerox around the world in a little more detail. Take a look at this chart, which shows revenue by region. So about half our revenue is from the US market. Then Europe with over five billion dollars and the rest of the world with over two. One thing I'd like to point out is...Extract 3 Finally, how is the market for the document industry looking? Well it would be unrecognisable to the people who founded the orginal company in 1906 and even compared to the second half of the twentieth century. More and more offices are moving from black and white printing to color, and from paper documents to electronic documents. These are clearly the future opportunities and areas of growth in what is a total market worth an estimated 112 billion dollars...So that brings me to the end of my presentation. Thanks for listening. I hope it's been of interest. Are there any questions?3) Students can work in pairs and try to say the numbers. In order to check their answers, you could play the recording again so students can listen for pronunciation.Answerssixteen billionnine hundred and seventy-eight millionone hundred and sixtyfifty-five thousandhalffoursixfive billiontwo billionnineteen oh sixone hundred and twelve billion4) 2.2 Students listen again and write notes.

Then, play the recording at least once for students to match the expressions. Afterwards, students could check their answers by reading the listening script.Answers1 A2 F3 F4 D5 A6 C7 B8 B9 B 10 D11 D 12 A 13 B 14 C 15 FPronunciation6) 2.3 Students might find the idea that we pause so often in a presentation quite strange, but it is a standard technique with experienced presenters, especially when talking to larger audiences. Play the recording and students mark the pauses. With more confident groups, let them try to predict where the pauses will go before listening. It might help to point out that we tend to pause whenever there is a full stop or comma, after signal phrases (Today/Firstly/Next), to separate key information (eg the name of a company), or to emphasise information (as in the presentation about Xerox - the world's / largest / document / management / company). Students can check their answers in the listening script on page 135 where the pauses are indicated already.2.3/2.4 Listening scriptPresenter Good morning/ and thanks for coming. / Today/ I'd like to tell you about/ the world's/ largest/ document / management/ company./ With a turnover ofnearly sixteen billion dollars/ the Xerox Corporation develops/ and markets/ innovative technologies/ with products and solutions/ that customers depend upon to get the best results/ for their business./ In my brief presentation/ we'll begin by looking at/ some of the key figures/ behind the company's success/ and how the company is structured./ Then/ I'll give an overview of Xerox around the world/ and finally/ I'd like to talk about some of the trends/ affecting our market/ and its future growth./ If you have any questions,/ I'll be happy to answer them at the end.7) 2.4 This is designed as a drill and helps to focus students on intonation and stress, as well as pausing. It's a useful strategy that they can learn to apply to their own presentations. Drill it as a class, or students could also practice on their own at home.Giving a presentationSpeaking1) Ask students what kind of company they would like to run if they had the chance. Tell them this is their "dream" company and they are going to create it. Working alone, they make up facts and figures to fill in the first column of the table. The aim of the task is to give controlled practice of the expressions for presenting. Their ideas can be as far-fetched as they like.2) Refer students back to the expressions in exercise 5 on page 21. Students work in pairs and give their presentations. They may find it helpful to repeat their presentations at least twice so they could also change partners. The person listening takes notes and could also offer feedback and suggestions on possible improvements.ExtensionAfter students have give their presentations to partners, you could ask them to do the same again to the class. Also, students could follow the advice in the Learning Tip and record their presentation or transcribe it, marking pauses as they did in exercise 6 on page 21.3) Students prepare a full-length presentation about a company for their next lesson. This could be their own company or one they know well. Alternatively, students could research a company using information on its website and use this as the basis for a presentation.A memoWritingAsk students if they receive memos at work. What are they about?Who writes them? With pre-work learners, ask them if they can define what a memo is.4) Refer students to the Exam Success tip before they read the instructions.Answers1 All staff.2 Any staff with a company based pension scheme.3 There have been changes in the government pension laws.4 This will affect the current company based pension scheme.5 A presentation will be given by the Head of Finance on the changes and any effects.5) The next two exercises help students to write effective subject lines. Make sure students realise the importance of a subject line, which is to summarise the key content of the memo and help the reader to identify the purpose easily.Answerpresentation, changes, pension, schemeExtensionBefore students do exercise 6, ask them to apply questions 2-5 from exercise 4 to each of the memos in exercise 6. Note that all the memos are to "All staff".6) Students should begin by underlining any key words. They could compare these with a partner. Then they will need to choose the best three or four words to keep the subject lines brief.Possible answersMemo 1: Display of new factory plansMemo 2: Presentation on flexitime and home-workingMemo 3: Spanish classes7) This is very similar to the writing task in Part Two of the Writing Test. It could be done in class (perhaps with students in pairs) or set for homework.Possible answerTo: All StaffFrom: (name of student)Date: 1st OctoberSubject: Presentation of new insurance policyTo offer staff a better health insurance scheme, we are now working with a new insurance company. Please note therefore that a representative from this company will present the new staff policy on 9th October at 2pm in the conference room. All staff are welcome to attend.Module 2.3 Reading Test: Part fiveExam practice1) Students complete the table with words that are typically focused on in this part of the Reading Test. Answersprepositions articles conjunctions auxiliary pronounsverbsfor the because has whichto a so are whoof and do2) After students work in pairs, ask everyone to feed back to the class so ideas can be shared. It's also a good idea for students to use good dictionaries so they can check the word types beforehand.Possible answersprepositions articles conjunctions auxiliary pronounsverbsin an when have itat no article while does himby that3) Ask students to read the rubric carefully. They should always read the whole text first before trying to answer. You might want them to work in pairs and discuss possibilities. Draw their attention to the fact that many of the words will be those looked at in exercises 1 and 2, although other types of words may still be incorrect (see 10 in this text).Answers1 WILL2 OF3 WHO4 IN5 DO6 CORRECT7 TO 8 AND 9 CORRECT10 TAKE 11 FOR 12 CORRECTWriting Test: Part OneExam PracticeRefer students to the Exam Success tip. Students will be fairly familiar with this type of task now as they were introduced to the format on page 12 of Module 1 (exercise 3) and page 23 of Module 2 (exercise 7). For this reason, you can set exam conditions so students can work alone. Allow 10-15 minutes.Possible answerFrom: (student's name)Subject: Confirmation of seminar detailsDate: XXXTo: Assistant seminar organisersPlease note that I have booked Rooms 101 and 102 for the seminar next week. I'd be grateful if you would now confirm this booking and the final schedule for the event with security. Also note that Mr. Singh will be one hour late on the Monday morning.Exam self-checkRefer students to the advice in the Learning Tip. They should swap their work with a partner. It's helpful if students become used to commenting on and being supportive of each other's work.。

It's a useful strategy that they can learn to apply to their own presentations. Drill it as a class, or students could also practice on their own at home.Giving a presentationSpeaking1) Ask students what kind of company they would like to run if they had the chance. Tell them this is their "dream" company and they are going to create it. Working alone, they make up facts and figures to fill in the first column of the table. The aim of the task is to give controlled practice of the expressions for presenting. Their ideas can be as far-fetched as they like.2) Refer students back to the expressions in exercise 5 on page 21. Students work in pairs and give their presentations. They may find it helpful to repeat their presentations at least twice so they could also change partners. The person listening takes notes and could also offer feedback and suggestions on possible improvements.ExtensionAfter students have give their presentations to partners, you could ask them to do the same again to the class. Also, students could follow the advice in the Learning Tip and record their presentation or transcribe it, marking pauses as they did in exercise 6 on page 21.3) Students prepare a full-length presentation about a company for their next lesson. This could be their own company or one they know well. Alternatively, students could research a company using information on its website and use this as the basis for a presentation. A memoWritingAsk students if they receive memos at work. What are they about?Who writes them? With pre-work learners, ask them if they can define what a memo is.4) Refer students to the Exam Success tip before they read the instructions.Answers1 All staff.2 Any staff with a company based pension scheme.3 There have been changes in the government pension laws.4 This will affect the current company based pension scheme.5 A presentation will be given by the Head of Finance on the changes and any effects.5) The next two exercises help students to write effective subject lines. Make sure students realise the importance of a subject line, which is to summarise the key content of the memo and help the reader to identify the purpose easily.Answerpresentation, changes, pension, schemeExtensionBefore students do exercise 6, ask them to apply questions 2-5 from exercise 4 to each of the memos in exercise 6. Note that all the memos are to "All staff".6) Students should begin by underlining any key words. They could compare these with a partner. Then they will need to choose the best three or four words to keep the subject lines brief.Possible answersMemo 1: Display of new factory plansMemo 2: Presentation on flexitime and home-working Memo 3: Spanish classes7) This is very similar to the writing task in Part Two of the Writing Test. It could be done in class (perhaps with students in pairs) or set for homework.Possible answerTo: All StaffFrom: (name of student)Date: 1st OctoberSubject: Presentation of new insurance policyTo offer staff a better health insurance scheme, we are now working with a new insurance company. Please note therefore that a representative from this company will present the new staff policy on 9th October at 2pm in the conference room. All staff are welcome to attend.Module 2.3 Reading Test: Part fiveExam practice1) Students complete the table with words that are typically focused on in this part of the Reading Test. Answersprepositions articles conjunctions auxiliary pronounsverbsfor the because has whichto a so are whoof and do2) After students work in pairs, ask everyone to feed back to the class so ideas can be shared. It's also a good idea for students to use good dictionaries so they can check the word types beforehand.Possible answersprepositions articles conjunctions auxiliary pronounsverbsin an when have itat no article while does himby that3) Ask students to read the rubric carefully. They should always read the whole text first before trying to answer. You might want them to work in pairs and discuss possibilities. Draw their attention to the fact that many of the words will be those looked at in exercises 1 and 2, although other types of words may still be incorrect (see 10 in this text).Answers1 WILL2 OF3 WHO4 IN5 DO6 CORRECT7 TO8 AND9 CORRECT10 TAKE 11 FOR 12 CORRECTWriting Test: Part OneExam PracticeRefer students to the Exam Success tip. Students will be fairly familiar with this type of task now as they were introduced to the format on page 12 of Module 1 (exercise 3) and page 23 of Module 2 (exercise 7). For this reason, you can set exam conditions so students can work alone. Allow 10-15 minutes.Possible answerFrom: (student's name)Subject: Confirmation of seminar detailsDate: XXXTo: Assistant seminar organisersPlease note that I have booked Rooms 101 and 102 for the seminar next week. I'd be grateful if you would now confirm this booking and the final schedule for the event with security. Also note that Mr. Singh will be one hour late on the Monday morning.Exam self-checkRefer students to the advice in the Learning Tip. They should swap their work with a partner. It's helpful if students become used to commenting on and being supportive of each other's work.。

然而你必须明白自己将从事何种性质的经营，这是至关重要的。
特许经营就是由一方(授予特许经营者)授权允许另一方(加盟特许经营者)使用其商标或商号，并使用其一揽子经营理念。
那么特许经营背后所隐藏的主要理念是否结合了自己独立开店和为公司打工这两种理念?英国特许经营协会会长丹·阿齐尔回答说：“绝非如此，这是一种可笑的过于简单的看法。
其实这还是由你来经营自己的公司，但是避免了一些风险，同时增加了别人的支持。
”他指出，相比大多数遭受失败的独立经营者，只有0.9％的特许经营店以失败告终。
尽管如此，成为特许经销商不可能使那些极具冒险精神的人感到满足。
它不适合那些不想循规蹈矩的人。
达美乐比萨特许经销店的销售经理威廉姆·尤班克这样说道：“如果你充满开创冒险的精神，这种形式不适合于你。
它是一种原则规约，一个必须遵守规则的俱乐部。
虽说有一定的独立性——我们的特许经销商可以自己制定价格表，但我们对菜单的内容要求非常严格。
这是在帮助下经营公司。
”阿丝特丽德·帕狄尔刚刚成为达美乐比萨店的特许经营者，她告别了律师生涯，和她的丈夫合开一家特许经营店。
“与其把所有的时间和精力倾注到为别人卖命的工作中，不如投入于自己的公司中。
”帕狄尔三十一岁时放弃了薪水可观、受人尊敬的律师职业，转而经营这家比萨店，并获得回报。
公司收益颇丰，业务出现了增长。
当然如果你下定决心，白手起家地单干，你随时可以从总店分离出去，另立门户，发展特许经营店。

风险评估的目的是保证没有人受到人身伤害或者得病。
事故和疾病可能夺去人的生命，而且，如果产量减少、机器被毁、保险费用增加或者需要打官司，还会影响到公司的业务。
进行风险评估时需要判断的重要事项包括：判断事故隐患是否重大，是否采取了适当的防范措施以把危害减到最小。
如果你的公司规模很小，井且你自信熟悉风险评估这项工作，你可以进行自我评估，或者，你也可以让有责任心的员工、安全事务代理人、安全员来帮你做这项工作。
如果你自己没有把握，可向地方健康和安全监督员咨询。

2017年BEC商务英语考试中级阅读翻译资料（1）贝尔斯登(Bear Stearns)与中国券商中信证券(Citic Securities)正在就去年达成的股份互换协议重新展开谈判，以更好地反映协议达成后双方股价的下跌。
Bear Stearns and Citic Securities, China’s largest securities firm, are renegotiating the share swap agreement they reached last year to better reflect a subsequent fall in their stock prices.一位知情人士称，两家公司的高管正在讨论一项“对等调整”，这将增加双方最终持有的对方股份。
Senior executives from both firms are discussing a “reciprocal adjustment”that would increase the amount they eventually hold in each other, according to a person familiar with the matter.根据去年10月达成的交易条款，中信证券同意支付10亿美元购入最终将转换为贝尔斯登约6%股份的证券，而美国投行贝尔斯登最终将支付同等金额，购得中信证券约2%股份。
Under the terms of the deal struck last October, Citic agreed to pay $1bn for securities that would convert to about 6 per cent of Bear Stearns and the US investment bank would eventually pay the same amount for about 2 per cent of Citic.这宗交易仍需获得中国监管机构批准，若交易成功，作为中国国务院控制的中国中信集团(Citic Group)旗下证券交易子公司的中信证券将成为贝尔斯登的单一股东。

Well, it's difficult to describe because in China there's still no commonly shared perception of what's reasonable or normal in international business, so standards and expectations vary widely from place to place. That's why, when you're doing business in China, it's imperative that you do extensive preparatory work. This means finding out about the particular company, industry, city or region where you're doing business and not just about the country as a whole. One of the first things to remember is that the Chinese find it most discourteous if you are late for meetings. It may be, of course, that your first meeting will be in your hotel, but if not, then allow plenty of time for the journey as in most Chinese cities the congestion is every bit as bad as in London. A good tip is to take a business card with the company's address written in Chinese to show the taxi driver. When you get there, you will be greeted by your host, usually a senior manager, and probably some of his or her staff. The visitors will then be ushered into the meeting room.The leader of your group will be expected to enter first and will generally be offered a seat beside the most senior Chinese person present. This person will usually chair the meeting and act as host and have a translator at his or her side. To begin with, all those present will swap business cards, in itself a very important ceremony, and there will be a short period of small talk. The host will then officially start proceedings with a 'brief introduction' to the Chinese enterprise and its activities. The host may then invite the visiting team to speak. Now at this point it's appropriate for the UK side to begin to make its case.Don't forget to warn your host beforehand if you wish to include any audio-visual aids during this presentation. It's also extremely important that your team should be able to answer any questions on any aspect of your business proposal, your own company and your international competitors.Following the meeting, the Chinese enterprise will probably arrange a special dinner for the UK guests. Small talk over dinner is essential for relationship-building. For most Chinese, the family counts above all else. It remains the dominant social and political unit in Chinese society so Chinese people will usually be very pleased to be asked about their children and their hopes for their children's future. In social relationships Chinese people almost always seek to preserve harmony and face. Hosts believe it is their duty to offer their visitors hospitality, even though the visitors themselves may much prefer a day off after intense negotiations. It's very common, for instance, for the host enterprise to organize sightseeing trips for its guests and it would, of course, be a discourtesy not to accept these invitations.新编剑桥商务英语高级学生用书Unit4AI = Interviewer J = Jan DunnI So Jan, why did BA decide to move to Waterside?J Well, we had a lot of people scattered about in a lot of different buildings. British Airways has been around a long time so we've inherited a lot of old offices and buildings. Leases were running out on a lot of key buildings on the Heathrow site and we decided that rather than try to renew them, it would make more sense for us financially to build a new building on this site. So although it was a ￡200m project, it was, in fact, a cost-effective move for BA.I But why such a radically different building? What was the main objective?J Well, we knew from opinion surveys that our work environment needed improving. When designing the building, we very much wanted to realise a vision which was team-based and spaced, one that involved bringing people together in an open working environment. We now have an excellent facility where people can meet and work anywhere in the building. And by centralizing our information and data, we can now work together much more effectively than before. We also looked at informality and ways of reducing hierarchy.I Such as?J Physically, we used to have a very hierarchical set-up. PAs, for example, used to sit right outside the manager's office and we questioned whether that kind of system really helped the way we worked. We also looked at things like the size and purpose of office space. And we made small changes like not allocating executive parking.I So, how is the building laid out?J Right, the building itself was designed around a village structure. What we've got is a central street with six houses coming off it. It's designed so residents, that's the people who work here, park in a secure area beneath the building and then come up through the street. This means they have to walk through the street to get to their place of work, wherever that might be that day. And the idea there wasvery much, and it does work, that we would all be very visible and we would stop and talk or bump into each other at the shop or the bank. So, again, everyone, whatever their level, comes through the building the same way.I So, if someone can be working anywhere in the building, how do you find them?J It's very simple. All the phones in the building are dumb terminals. So, wherever I am in the building, I can log into the system as 95001, which activates that particular terminal and directs all my calls to it. So I'm always 95001, whether I'm in the building or even at home. We also have voice mail and an electronic diary system just in case people are unavailable. And obviously there are maps in the street and information points as well.I Going back to the street for a moment, I noticed there are lots of high street facilities. What was the thinking behind that?J Well, it's very clear that people need to do things like pop to the bank or pick up shopping or whatever. Normally if you want to do those things, you're going to have to dash out at lunchtime or after work. So what we've done is identify what people need to do and we've just made them available on site. It's a convenience thing, that's all.I Oh right. Yes, that's handy. Now I believe you've also looked at changing the meetings culture.J Yes, we're encouraging people on the classics really: making sure you need to meeting and that you're inviting the right people. I suppose we're suggesting that we wouldn't expect a useful meeting to be bigger than say 20 people. But we've got a lot of flexibility. I can choose a location suited to the type of meeting I want to run. There's everything from the cafes and informal meeting rooms right up to the theatre, which seats 400 people.I So what difference has Waterside made to your typical day?J Right, well, first thing in the morning I have a choice of whether I come into Waterside or not because I've got a laptop and access to the computer network from home or from other sites. So what I've tended to do is try and book meetings all on the same day if I can as it cuts down my travelling time basically. And if I do come into Waterside, I've just got more options. I really feel I get things done quicker and more effectively and that I'm making better use of my time.新编剑桥商务英语高级学生用书Unit4BWell, it's already made a huge impact and by the time the project's fully implemented, we'll have networked over 300,000 employees and suppliers - they'll all the able to communicate through e-mail. And it's this interconnectivity, it's changing everything about they way we work. I mean, last year around 15 per cent of our in-service staff development was carried out through Web-based distance learning using the company intranet. And we reckon that for every 1,000 days of classroom-based teaching that's supplied by distance learning, it generates about $500,000 in efficiency gains. And this year we'll be delivering up to 30 per cent of our courses by distance learning. So we'll be looking at savings of over $100 million.We're one of the largest insurance organizations in Canada, offering a wide range of financial products. We rely on a system of independent agents to distribute our products so it's really important to maintain a close relationship with them. This used to be done over the telephone but that was all very time-consuming for our employees and meant we could only supply agents with information during office hours. Now we have the extranet, which means that all our representatives can keep in touch around the clock and get the latest information about offerings. They can also request back-up articles and information such as telemarketing scripts and advertisements. And of course, we'll be introducing more and more new product lines so it's essential that our agents get the back-up they need.We're one of the Netherlands' leading banks with 1,300 branches here and abroad. We deal with both businesses and consumers but our primary focus is small and medium-sized businesses - SMBs as we call them. As part of our offering to SMBs, we recently launched a Web-based euro project which provides free briefings to both customers and staff about the new European currency. Since the issues surrounding the euro will constantly be changing, people will need regular updating. By providing up-to-the-minute bulletins, we're establishing ourselves as a major player in the Eurozone countries. This, in turn, is enhancing our clients' perceptions of us and strengthening our customer base.Well, we are one of France's most prestigious bicycle manufacturers, selling mainly to professionals and people with a real passion for cycling as a sport. The best bit about our new website is that it lets customers actually design their own personalized cyber cycle. All they have to do is choose a basic model and then decide what frame, wheels, pedals, colour and so on they want. They pay on-line by credit card and the bike is then delivered to their nearest dealer within 14 days. It's as simple as that. Our business was initially aimed at mostly French customers but with the new way of using the Internet, we have been able to create an international presence at a fraction of what it would have cost to advertise outside the domestic market.After recent restructuring we felt we needed to change the company culture to reflect our leaner structure. Processes that used to be highly bureaucratized needed to be simplified. One area we really had to tackle was procurement. After filling in massive amounts of paperwork, getting requisite signatures and then faxing orders off, our employees sometimes had to wait over a month for things like office material and PCs to get here. A real advantage with the new system is there's less margin for error because if the form isn't filled in correctly, then the system says so immediately. So less time'll be wasted on sorting out problems. By the end of the year we'll have reduced our paper invoices from five million to zero.新编剑桥商务英语中级学生用书Unit 5A relocationA:Amanda ramone speaking .

They ‘re reported their results today. For the six months, pre-tax profits rose sharply by 9.8 %, which brought the final figure for the year to just over 6.3 m. that’s up from just over 5.8 m last year. The dividend is up. If you’re one of their shareholders, you can expect half a penny per share.bugdgens has got 163 stores and three now actually sell petrol, so they do seem to be expanding. They’ve also just spent half a million pounds on buying something called Teleshop services, which specializes in developing computer-based home shopping. However, the business is only operating at break0even and isn’t expected to do much more this year, it has to be said.Now, let’s take a look, shall we, at how budgens ‘ share price has done over the last 12 months .as you can see, it’s been pretty volatile. After steady progress throu ghout the first half of the year, it really shot up at the end of the summer, when everyone thought there’d be a takeover. At the height of the rumours, in September, you can see that shares peaked at just over 80 pence. The takeover didn’t happen.though, and the price collapsed .by mid-October it had fallen as far as the 55 pence mark .the shares recovered slowly to 65 pence by November, but then they went into steady decline again for the next two months, down once again to the 55 pence mark. However, news of good trading results has meant that shares have improved again this year. And it has to be said; the share price is marginally up on last February .so shareholders are in profit over the 12-month period. And if we look at the budgens shares today, the y’re up slightly by 1.3 pence at 67 and a half.新编剑桥商务英语中级学生用书Unit 6B Environmental reportGood morning. Today we’re going to look at ICI’s environmental programmes and environmental performance since 1990. I’d like to begin with some background to ICI’s environmental projects.Then we’ll go on to look at our Challenge 2000 project. And finally, we’ll turn to the results of these programs.Now the story really began in the 1980s when people started becoming more concerned about environment issues. The first ICI environmental project was a result of the realization that, as a major player in the chemicals industry. ICI would had to address these growing public concerns. So, in 1900 we presented our shareholders with a program to reduce the environmental impact of our worldwide activities. Many of the steps we took back then have since become government legislation. The project included some very ambitious targets for im proving the company’s environmental performance. We realised that these goals demanded significant investment, so we committed the largest share of our annual £500 million Safety, Health and Environment budget to the project. Since 1990 we’ve spent about 200 million each year on environmental improvements. As things developed, we soon realised that there were no cheap options or quick fixes. Therefore, we began directing this biggest improvements. And then, in 1995, we assessed our performance and set ourselves equally demanding objectives for the next five years. These formed the basis of our Challenge 2000 project.If you’d like to look at the screen, you’ll see the four main objectives of Chanllenge 2000. As you can see, our first objective is to ensure that by the year 2000 all our business comply with the relevant environmental regulations in each of the countries in which their products are sold. This applies to all our new and existing plants throughout the world. Our second objective is to improve energy efficiency. Now, here, we decided that by the year 2000 we would reduce our energy consumption by 10%. The starting point for this reduction would be the 1995 level. Moving on to the next objective, ICI intends to have the environmental impact of its b usiness by the year 2000. I’m sure you’ll understand exactly how ambitious this is, but we feel it demonstrates the importance of the issue. To achieve this target, we decided to concentrate on those wastes which pose the greatest threat to the environment and give their reduction the higheat priority. And finally, our last objective is to ensure that all our business have what we call Product Stewardship Programmes. These programmes are a tool for managing all our chemicals throughout their complete produc t life cycle. They’ll provide up-to-date records of all the chemicals that we use and handle. And what’s more, they’ll ensure that all labels and public information are printed in the languages of our customers. The results of these programmes will be published each year in a special report.Now, it’s clear that growing public concern about the future of the environment will affect government thinking--- and no-one in the industry doubs that tougher legislation is to come. That’s why Challenge 2000 is such an essential part of ICI’s strategic development. With the improvements we’re making today, we can feel confident about fulfilling the legal obligations of tomorrow. At ICI we realise that we have a commitment not only to our customers, employees and shareholders, but also to the communities in which we work and produce our goods.So now, I’d like to turn to the results of the …新编剑桥商务英语高级学生用书Unit7AJ = Jill O = Oliver R = RickJ Good morning. Sorry I'm a little late. How did the board meeting go yesterday?O I didn't know there was a board meeting planned for yesterday.R There wasn't. It was an emergency meeting.O Emergency? Sounds exciting. What's the problem?R That's what we're here to talk about this morning. Close the door, would you Jill?J Yes, of course.R Thanks. Right, as you may know, we've lost several major contracts this year to Centronics, our biggest rival. Each time they've targeted the customer just as their contracts were up for renewal.J Are you saying they've somehow got access to our files?R Well, one of our customers was still loyal enough to inform us that Centronics seemed to have god information about the terms and conditions of their contract with us.O But surely, you don't think that someone's passing on that kind of information?R We don't know. That's the problem. And that's what we've got to find out. If there genuinely is a problem, then we'll have to find out whether Centronics has infiltrated us or whether it's an inside job. So, we need to look at our systems and our people - and that's why you're both here.O So, what did you have in mind, Rick?R Well, first of all, Oliver, could someone have hacked into our intranet from outside?O Hack into the intranet? I doubt it. We've got pretty up-to-date security on the system.J Which means it's probably on inside job, right? Any ideas who it might be?R If I knew that, we wouldn't be here. So, we'll need to check out everyone who's joined us in the last 12 months.J The last 12 months? You don't think Centronics has placed a spy here, do you?R I'm not sure what to think, Jill. But we should check out their CVs anyway.J But it'll take ages if we do that. Beside, their references would have been checked at the time anyway. R I know, but what about their previous employers? Were they checked?J Well … we … we don't normally …R Exactly. I think it'd also be a good idea if you looked back at your appraisal records. See if you can find anyone who's disgruntled or makin g noises about wanting more money …J Do you mean for the whole company or just Sales?R Well, start with Sales and then keep looking if you don't find anything. We've got to be thorough on this one. The board's taking it very seriously. Oliver, on the systems side of things, what can we do?O Well, I guess the first thing is to look at access. You know, see who's got access to what information. R Could you report back to me on that as soon as possible?O Sure. And I suppose I could also issue individual pa sswords so …R That's true. And then we'd know exactly who was logging on, wouldn't we?O And what they were looking at and when they were logging on.J How about e-mail? Can we check people's e-mail?O No problem, it's all automatically archived on the server. I'll get printouts for you, Rick.J And if I could see them, too, I could see who's dissatisfied and have a look at their appraisal notes and their personal record file.O OK.J That way I should be able to get an idea as to whether anyone's bearing a grudge.O Good idea, Jill. OK, do that. But make sure you do it discreetly. If word got out about this, then whoever's doing it would stop and destroy the evidence.J That's true. It wouldn't do much for morale either.O Which is already low enough around here at the moment.R Yes, this isn't exactly what we needed right now, is it?J What if we don't come up with anything, what are we going to do then?R The board's thinking about bringing in a security consultant. She'd pose as a temp in the Sales Department - you know, talk to people and get the gossip, find out who's unhappy and that kind of thing. J But I don't see the point. How would she be able to find out anything that we couldn't?O And it'd certainly go down well in sales if they found out about it.R Yes, well … Let's just hope it doesn't come to that.新编剑桥商务英语高级学生用书Unit7BI suppose, in a way, it's a kind of generation thing. When George started, there was no such thing as political correctness in the office environment. In those days, I'm sure it was common practice to call colleagues 'love' or 'darling', pay compliments about their figures or even give them gifts and things. But you just can't do that nowadays and he should have known better. He says his secretary never complained about it to him in person and that if she had, he'd have stopped doing it, but she didn't. Instead, she went straight to the board and warned them that she'd take legal action if nothing was done abut it. Well, they soon hauled George in and explained the situation. George was outraged and told them what they could do with the job there and then.If you'd looked around the workplace, I guess you would have seen the evidence. I mean, in a company of this size you would have expected to see at least some ethnic diversity in the workplace, wouldn't you? Anyway, someone finally discovered a secret file with all the applicants who were not given an interview. Whoever it was blew the whistle to the local press and that was it the company was faced with a PR disaster and a police investigation. Of course, the first thing the board did was give the well-paid HR executive his marching orders and insist that it was his prejudice and not company policy. But if that was the case, then why hadn't they noticed what was going on?I'm sure Sharleen didn't think she was doing anything wrong at the time. She'd been told to put together a report on the market penetration of a new safety product we'd just launched. So she had tofind out how much business our main rival was doing. OK, so hacking into their corporate intranet wasn't the right way of going about it but no-one realised she was a complete whizzkid. Luckily, they didn't find out what happened. If they had, it would have cost us a fortune. You can imagine everyone's reaction when she announced what she'd done. Our Ethics Officer went mad and had to quickly put together an official code for dealing with competitors. As for Sharleen, well, she just got away without even so much as an official warning!We'd been doing business with them for years and our sales executives had always enjoyed very good relationships with them. I don't think for one minute it would have made any difference if we hadn't offered them the occasional thank you for their business. But we always thought of it as good customer relationship management. What's wrong with the odd weekend away for a loyal customer? Anyway, the new CEO changed all that. Maybe it was a cultural thing, I don't know, but she suspended all freebies pending a review. She also recruited someone to regulate dealings with our clients a sort of moral policeman, I guess. She even wrote to all our customers warning them not to accept any kind of presents from any of our reps.Every business wants to be ethically sound but it's a hyper-competitive world out there and when you're under pressure to make money and keep to a budget, it's a different matter. Pete, the Production Manager, didn't like the new regulation spray paint it just wasn't as good so he carried on using the old stuff. He knew there'd be trouble if anyone found out. But I guess he just hoped they wouldn't. Of course, some campaigners tested the local water and found evidence of the banned chemicals. I suppose when you think about the PR nightmare that followed and the hefty fine the company had to pay, Pete was lucky to get away with just a letter threatening dismissal if he used the old paint ever again.新编剑桥商务英语高级学生用书Unit8AWith more mergers and acquisitions than ever before, I think it's becoming quite clear that a company in the future will need to have a global presence in order to compete in tomorrow's market place. This presence can give a company many competitive advantages.To begin with, say, it can give access to local market knowledge, which can avoid some very, very expensive mistakes on account of cultural conflicts. Once more, it can spread the risk of doing business. If a company sells to more than one market, it can survive a downturn in any one of those markets, that's quite clear. And if a company becomes truly global, it can move its production around from country to country and take advantage of the best conditions at any given time. And the size of the company means it can realise economies of scale in advertising or distribution or shipping, for example.So I think, all in all, when these things are taken into consideration, it's quite clear that any company not looking to establish a global presence in future may not have a future.How to promote an imported brandWith so many people these days making a conscious decision to buy domestic products, the pressure on those companies wishing to promote imported brands is greater than ever before.。

新编剑桥商务英语中级第三版Moudule11课文Coffee
新编剑桥商务英语中级第三版Moudule11课文CoffeeCoffee is a beverage made from roasted coffee beans, which is popular all over the world.There are many kinds of coffee, such as Nescafe, cat poo coffee, cappuccino, latte, mocha and so on.In the eyes of foreigners, coffee is like Chinese tea, something is nothing to make a cup of tea, small taste, as if the bitter coffee is nectar. This is the habit of foreigners, we Chinese young people, now also seldom invite friends to tea, but will say: "let's go to coffee shop chat!" It can be seen that for us Chinese, drinking coffee is a kind of leisure and entertainment.In the past, I drank a few cappuccinos at Starbucks on my dad's dime, and they were as bitter as drinking Chinese medicine. Even though dad adds sugar, I can't feel any sweetness.Recently, my mother and I have been following the fashion by pretending to drink coffee. It is not coffee, but something similar to cocoa milk, asking everyone "Do you want coffee? When guests come to our house, my mother will not pour tea for guests any more,just a cup of hot coffee, drink it!Why is that? My mother read on the Internet that drinking coffee can prevent cancer. This is not good for mom, but the last part of the sentence excited mom, "drinking coffee can also delay aging." Mother went to buy cocoa powder that afternoon, and also pulled me, let me and her "through thick and thin".The taste of coffee is a long story, especially bitter, my taste buds have silently protest. Every time after drinking a glass of milk, my mother and I are similar. Then I had a whim and poured the milk into the coffee, which tasted much better. Now my mother drinks a cup of cocoa milk every morning.But, Mom, did you see the other one on theInternet? "Drinking too much coffee can also harm your health!"。
中级商务英语课文翻译(外语教学与研究出版社)
中级商务英语课文翻译Unit 1一、A：好吧，让我们再来看看原计划，看看我们已经做到哪儿了。
先期的市场测试活动已于去年9月开始的，对吧？B：没错，我们在北部进行了一次小型的投放试验，市场测试进行了两个月直到11有中旬才结束。
A：结果如何？B：非常令人振奋，销售额达到了预期的目标。
总体来说，消费者反应不错。
A：下一步的计划是什么？B：你知道，按这个计划很快就要在全国投放我们本来打算在今年1月份进行一次主要以电视为媒介的大型广告宣传活动。
A：那怎么没进行呢？B：主要是，我们生产上有些困难。
产品在全国投放，需要提高产量，这比预计的要难得多。
A：不可能。
在市场测试阶段，我们的生产毫无问题。
B：我知道，但那时规模小得多，现在好像是在机械方面出现了一些问题，你可以与布莱恩探讨此事。
A：我不想找布莱恩谈，我就要你告诉我现在的情况。
B：当然可以。
我们把投放时间定于下月初的5月5日。
电视广告宣传将于5月2日之前的周末开始。
现在我们正在准备新的促销宣传材料，这是为商店推销用的。
A：我还以为你已弄好了呢。
B：我们确实已弄好了，但由于投放时间滞后，我们得做一些更动。
A：明白了。
B：所以，除了广告促销与推销活动外，我们将举行地区性与全国性新闻发布会，以便在产品投放市场初期最大限度地覆盖新闻媒介。
A：什么时候开始？B：就在下星期，4月15日、16日两天。
A：行，我得走了，请随时把新的进展向我汇报。
B：一定照办。
二、A：计划是什么时候开始的？B：去年年底。
A：结果怎么样？B：相当令人失望，我们（本）希望在这之前就达到目标的。
A：这是什么原因呢？B：很难说，零售商说产品定价过高。
A：你同意吗？B：不，我并不同意。
我觉得广告宣传没有达到预期目的。
A：真的吗？B：对，你知道，这种产品的目标消费者是30—40岁年龄段的人，但我认为在这些人中这种产品仍未能深入人心。
A：那你们怎么办呢？B：我们打算聘请人对目标消费者再做一些补充性的调研。

Unit 7a Health and Safety第七单元a 卫生与安全5 STEPS TO RISH ASSESSMENT 风险评估的五个步骤风险评估就是对工作中可能导致人身伤害的潜在危险进行周密极查，以此判断是否已经采取了足够的防范措施或者是否应该增加其他措施以防止危害发生。
风险评估的目的是保证没有人受到人身伤害或者得病。
事故和疾病可能夺去人的生命，而且，如果产量减少、机器被毁、保险费用增加或者需要打官司，还会影响到公司的业务。
进行风险评估时需要判断的重要事项包括：判断事故隐患是否重大，是否采取了适当的防范措施以把危害减到最小。
如果你的公司规模很小，井且你自信熟悉风险评估这项工作，你可以进行自我评估，或者，你也可以让有责任心的员工、安全事务代理人、安全员来帮你做这项工作。
如果你自己没有把握，可向地方健康和安全监督员咨询。
但切记：你有责任保证防范借施充分落实到位。
第一步在你的工作场所周围巡视一遍，重新检查有什么可能引起伤害的潜在危险。
忽略无关紧要的细节，把注意力集中在可能引起重大伤害或可能伤及群休的重大隐患上。
向你的员工或员工代表了解他们的想法。
因为他们每天身临工作场所，每天都在工作，他们可能已经注意到了一些井不是一目了然的情况。
第二步把那些并不始终在工作场所的人员也考虑进去，比如清洁工、承包人以及维修人员。
那些到访的公众也要考虑进去，他们也有可能因为你们的生产活动而受到伤害。
第三步即使采取了充分的防范措施，仍然还会有危险存在。
你需要对每种重大隐患作出判断：现存的危险是否重大，一般还是很小。
首先，要考虑是否已经做了法律要求你必须做的一切。
再想一想普遍接受的行业标准是否适宜。
但不要就此而止，还要再为自己考虑一下，因为法.律规定你必须采取合理措施以保证工作场所的安全。
切记：你的目的是通过增加必要的防范措施来减少安全隐患。
第四步如果你的员工少于5人，就不必采用书面形式记录下来；但如果你有5个或5个以上的员工，就必须把评估的主要结果记录下来。
也就是说要把那些较为重大的隐患写下来，并把最重要的发现结果记录在案。
你应该保存这一书面材料以备将来参考。
如果监督员来查询你的防范措施或者如果你卷入了一场民事责任诉讼，这份材料对你就特别有用。
这份材料还能够证明你已经按照法律行事了，而且它还可么提醒你密切关注具体事务或者引起你优虑的事故隐患。
第五步有时候，你无疑需要引进新的机器、物品以及工作程序，而这些有可能引发新的隐患。
如果有重大变化，你必欲把它考虑进去。
不管怎样，对风险的时做出新的评估是件好事，但也不要因为每一细小的变化或每个新的工作内容就对你的评估作出修改。
然而，如果一项新的工作本身就携带新的重大隐患，你就要作出相应的考虑，采取一切必要措施以减低危险。
Unit 7b Rights at Work第七单元b 工作中的权利Tribunal rules on smoking at work case 对上班吸烟诉讼案的裁决一一劳工法专家告诫要警惕这一令人不快的问题托马斯一施奈尔一帕斯莫法律事务所告诫说，雇主必须采取足够的措施保护不吸烟员工免遭香烟烟雾伤害，否则将有可能面对法律诉讼。
吉尔，托马斯是公司聘请的劳工法专家.他援引了最近提交给劳工申诉法庭的一个案例。
这个案例是：因为雇主未能保护不吸烟员工免遭香烟烟雾伤害，导致一名员工辞职。
上班时，该雇员被迫在4名吸烟的秘书身边工作，周围还有3名抽香烟、雪茄和烟斗的律师的办公室。
这些办公的门都敞开着，以便给这几间有人吸烟的房间通风。
在该案原告及其同事们进行了一系列的投近后，雇主征求了员工们的意见，一致认为必须制定一项关于吸烟的政策。
然而，这一政策并未能深人解决原告的问题。
最后她被告知要么忍受烟雾，要么离开公司.结果她选择了后者。
劳工申诉法庭判决：雇主违反了合同义务，未能及时合理地解决员工的申诉并为员工提供合理、适当的工作环境。
原告选择了经济赔偿。
但我们要告戒雇主三思而行，不要仓促实施或强制实行禁烟令。
除非他们谨慎行事，否则可能面对吸烟者提出的不公正开除申诉，而这恰恰正是雇主想与不吸烟员工避免的纠纷。
在全面实施或部分实施禁烟令之前，建议雇主要保护自己，避免吸烟者可能提出的索赔要求。
必须听取员工们的意见，并把相应变化告知他们。
在此基础上，雇主应该理智地实施其禁烟令。
Unit 8a Business Expenses第八单元a 商务费用第一种情况在巴黎的3大商务旅行期间，你乘坐地铁到该市各地去见客户。
你发现这是最便宜、最方便的旅行方式。
在巴黎的最后一个晚上，你开始填写费用报销单。
看了报销单上的附属细则后，你才注意到你有权每天申报不高于25英镑的出租车费用。
第二种情况你在新公司的第一次商务旅行非常成功，你赢得了一份重要的新合同。
你邀请客户到一家昂贵的餐馆用餐。
但用餐结束时，对方坚持由他支付费用，共计125英镑。
他付过钱后把发票递给你，并对你说，你可以把它当做出差费用来报销这笔钱。
他说“现在谁都这样做。
”第三种情况你发现一个同事利用到汉堡的5天商务旅行虚报费用。
他在一家每晚收费80英镑的旅馆预定了房间，可他只在那儿住了一个晚上，然后他就结账离开了旅馆，其余几天都住在一个老朋友那儿。
但是，他却申报了5天的住宿费用。
A new expenses claim system 新的报销制度备忘录收件人：各部门经理写信人:艾伦·洛克会计部经理主题：实施新的报销制度众所周知，本部门就新的处理公司差旅费用和报梢申报制度进行了一次广泛的调查。
最近几个月，一种叫做“运通Amex”的公司赊帐卡和一种自动化的报销系统已经在几个部门试行使用，结果十分成功。
现在，这一系统将在全公司推广。
这一新制度的主要好处在于公司无需预付现金，而且可以减少用于行政管理的时间；它也将减少每次报销的审核成本，并且可以节省员工报销费用所需的时阅。
这一制度将在今后的10周内全面投人运行，下面是关于这一制度如何运作的概要介绍。
申报报梢进行商务旅行的员工每个月将通过电子邮件收到一份表格，显示用Amex公司赊帐卡进行的各项消费。
员工需要说明每次消费的商务目的，如果是招待费用，需要说明受招待客户的牲名。
员工要减去该卡上的个人费用，加入用现金支付的公司费用。
公司将每月寄一张支票给运通公司，以结清用运通卡所支付的所有商务费用，然后员工负责结清个人费用的余额。
审计理序直属经理负责督报销申报，从提交的报销单中进行15%一20%的随机抽查。
有关这一新制度的详细情况，将在今后几天内送达各部门经理。
Unit 8b Business Travel第八单元b 商务旅行No frills flying 乘坐经济航班经济航班展鸿圈一一低成本航空公司正提供名种优惠以赢得商务乘客低成本航空公司在什么情况下就不是经济型航空公司了？如果它增加了非必需品就不是经挤型航空公司了。
对物美价廉的航班情有独钟的商务乘客，现在可以得到多见于大型航空公司的一揽子机上服务了。
迄令为止，经济型航空公司的吸引力主要在于其便宜的机票价格。
而不能在乎其起飞地点的便利，物质享受的舒适度或时间安排的宽松度。
易捷、莱纳和戴博娜这三家航空公司都对几条大客流量航线上的主要航班实行了降价，最多的降低了70%。
然而，由于越来越激烈的竞争以及像荷兰皇家航空英国公司这样的大型航空公司之间激烈的价格大战，有三家经济型航空公司正在改变其经营策略。
维珍快航公司正在增大其座位空间并考虑开展常客奖励计划；英国航空公司所属的前进航空公司正在努力吸引商务乘客；而戴博娜航空公司则将于下周推出商务舱座。
总部设在伦敦北部卢顿机场的戴博娜航空公司于两年多前开始运行，今年夏季首次盈利。
即使在创始时期，它就已经通过提供更舒适的座位、机上饮料以及一般的常客奖励计划来显示它与其他低成本竞争对手并不完全祖同。
戴博娜航空公司推出的叫做ABC的商务舱将为乘客在飞行途中提供更多的私密空间、可任意退换的机票、免费饮料、快餐以及专用的登机手续办理台，而其价格仍将比一般的商务舱票价低40%。
然而，其他低成本航空公司仍然坚持自己的经营策略。
尽管如此，以最低票价，不提供餐饮服务并以直销为市场特色的易捷航空公司，如今已经推出了收费10英镑向乘客提供易捷航班之间的转机服务。
这对需要更多灵活便利的商务乘客来说，是一种行之有效的让利优惠。
有些人认为维珍快航公司、前进航空公司和戴博娜航空公可提供高档次消费的努力是业内联合兼并的开始。
有如此激烈的价格竟争，看来有些低成本航空公司的竞争者将无法生存。
注：目前，戴博娜航空公司已经倒闭。
Unit 9a Flexible benefits第九单元a 弹性福利制度How flexible benefits work 弹性福利制度的运作“自选”福利制度的运作在“自选”福利制度中，员工的工资和福利如何组合简单易懂：全部薪酬你的全部薪酬由两个部分组成：现金和福利。
“自选”福利制度为你提供了一个适合你个人情况的薪酬组合。
要想知道你可以把多少钱用于福利项目，就要从墓本工资算起。
在工资以及其他相关信息（如你的级别和年龄）的基础上，可以计算出福利津贴的多少。
福利津贴福利津贴是指基本工资之外，高于基本工资，用来资助所享福利的额外收入。
福利津贴由两个部分组成：核心福利项目和附加福利基金。
核心福利项目作为“自选”福利制度的一部分，向你提供某些由公司资助的强制性基本福利项目。
这些核心福利项目包括不低于一定天数的假期、人寿保险和意外险。
除此之外，向工作年限较长的员工或有一定级别的员工提供不低于一定额度的终身健康保险和医疗保险。
附加福利基金你可以任意使用附加福利基金来“购买”自己喜欢的福利项目。
如果你希望得到更多的福利，还可以用不超过20%的基本工资来购买。
