3. Clearness/Clarity (清楚) Make sure that your letter is so clear that it cannot be misunderstood. A
point that is ambiguous in a letter will cause trouble to both sides, and further exchange of letters for explanation will become inevitable, thus time will be lost. You must try to express yourself clearly. To achieve this, you should keep in mind the purpose of your letter and use appropriate words in correct sentence structure to fully convey your meaning. When you are sure about what you want to say, say it in plain, simple words. Short, familiar, conversational and straightforward English is what is needed for business letters.

答案(高职)世纪商务英语听说教程I(第四版)unit one (普通高等教育"十一五"国家级教材) Unit oneThis section is in advanced English and is only intended to be a guide, not to be taken too seriously!Greetings and IntroductionsFirst impressions are a really important aspect of British culture. Introducing yourself and others in the correct way is fraught with various do's and dont's of etiquette.IntroductionsIn social situations, a man is traditionally introduced to a woman. However, in the business world introductions are based on a person's rank or position in an organisation. Whoever is the highest-ranking person is introduced to everyone else in order of their position. If you introduce two people of equal rank to each other, introduce the one you know less well to the one you know best.Introducing YourselfThere might be occasions where you will have to introduce yourself. For example, if you are meeting a new colleague or an associate, you might start off by extending your hand and saying "Hello! I am .....". If you have been introduced earlier to someone, do not assume that the person would remember you and be prepared to reintroduce yourself should it be necessary. There are some useful tips below.GreetingsThe British do shake hands, i.e. when first introduced to new people, but we rarely shake hands when parting.In an informal situation you may see social kissing (often just a peck on the cheek), this is acceptable between men and women and also between women who know each other very well, but it is rare that you will see two British men kissing, even if it is only on the cheek.。

Unit 1 美国人的生活方式Background knowledgeWhy American Culture is UniqueAmerican culture is unique because it is nurtured, formed and developed under certain conditions, which are characteristically American. The major factors contributing to the making of this new nation and the forming of a new culture are the hard environment, ethnic diversity (多民族) and plural religion, which is quite different from other nations in the world. What is more, these elements are still influencing the American culture.1. Rough EnvironmentThe early immigrants who were English Puritans settled down in northeast part of American. The environment there was very rough but they believed the poor land could purify their mind so they chose the place along the coast. From 1607 to 1892, frontiers were pushed further west. The American frontier consisted of the relatively unsettled regions of the United States, usually found in the western part of the country. The frontiersmen looked for a land of rich resources and a land of promise, opportunity and freedom. Actually they looked for a better life. So individualism, self-reliance, and equality of opportunity have perhaps been the values most closely associated with the frontier heritage of American.2. Ethnic DiversityThe population of the United States includes a large variety of ethnic groups coming from many races, nationalities, and religions. People refer to the United States as "melting pot "and the dominant people are British. American is made up of W ASP+MM, that is, White, Anglo Saxon, Protestants plus Middle Class and Male. In history, people from different countries in the world rushed to American three times. They brought their own culture to America and later on different cultures were mixed together. Thus the unique American culture is formed, a common cultural life with commonly shared values.3. Plural ReligionThe fundamental American belief in individual freedom and the right of individuals to practice their own religion is at the center of religious experience in the United States. The great diversity of ethnic backgrounds has produced religious pluralism; almost all of the religions of the world are now practiced in the United States. Christianity (基督教) is the dominant religion in American and Protestant (新教) is predominate (主导). Any individuals are equal before God and they believe they can communicate directly to God so they can share the same idea. Under the protestant, many new ones are formed and different explanations produce different sects of religion. Churches are independent and American religion is no longer religion seculars. The institution permits the practice of religion and the political power is separate form religion. So there are more religions in America than in other countries.4. Current InfluenceNowadays, we can see the continual influence of the three elements in the current American society. American family is typically parents and their unmarried children. Middle-aged and elderly people generally do not live with their married children. Many Americans live in mobile homes which are built with wheels. They can be moved. The people in American have a very strong desire to start a new life in a new place. Quite a number of people change residences every year. The average American moves fourteen times in his lifetime. The courage to try something new has been an American characteristic. American democracy means majority rule, but it also means protection of minority rights. There is certain freedom which the United States promises to all its citizens and members of minority group cannot be denied these rights by a vote of the majority. Americans also like to be involved in many challenging activities and sports to show their adventurous spirits. All of these are affected by the heritage of the American history.From the facts above, we can see American culture is unique which was cultivated, formed and developed by the main three factors, rough environment, ethnic diversity and plural religion and still is affected and determined by them now.Reading Skill Focus1.C Clue：首先，第一句话表明说话人对于后面发生的事情感到非常惊讶。

世纪英语综合教程1作文
世纪英语综合教程1作文Technology has revolutionized our lives in numerous ways, and education is no exception. With the rise of digital tools and online platforms, students now have unprecedented access to a wealth of knowledge. This essay will discuss the impact of technology on education, focusing on its benefits and challenges.One of the major advantages of technology in education is the ability to personalize learning experiences. Traditional classrooms often follow a "one size fits all" approach, where teachers deliver the same lesson to an entire class. However, with digital tools, students can learn at their own pace and focus on areas they find challenging. For instance, online platforms like Khan Academy offer personalized tutorials and quizzes, allowing students to grasp difficult concepts more effectively. This individualized approach not only enhanceslearning outcomes but also boosts students' confidence and motivation.Furthermore, technology provides students with access to a vast array of educational resources. In the past, knowledge was primarily confined to textbooks and libraries. Now, with a simple internet search, students can explore an infinite number of articles, videos, and interactive simulations. For example, platforms like TED-Ed and YouTube Edu host educational videos from renowned experts, making complex topics more accessible and engaging. Moreover, e-books and online libraries allow learners to access a myriad of texts, further promoting independent learning and critical thinking skills.Collaborative learning has also been transformed by technology. Previously, group projects required physical meetings and face-to-face interactions. However, tools such as Google Docs and project management software enablestudents to collaborate seamlessly, regardless of their physical location. This fosters teamwork and communication skills essential for success in the modern workforce. Moreover, online discussion boards and forums facilitatepeer-to-peer learning, as students can share ideas, ask questions, and provide feedback in a virtual environment.Despite the numerous benefits, technology in educationalso presents challenges. One of the primary concerns is the potential for increased screen time and its effects onstudents' health. Extended exposure to screens can lead toeye strain, sleep disturbances, and sedentary behavior. Therefore, it is crucial for educational institutions tostrike a balance between using technology as a learning tool and encouraging physical activity and outdoor experiences.Another challenge relates to the digital divide among students. While technology has become increasingly accessible, there are still disparities in access to devices and reliableinternet connection. This inequality in resources can exacerbate educational disparities, as those without access to technology are at a disadvantage. Efforts should be made to bridge this gap, ensuring that all students can fully benefit from the educational opportunities offered by technology.In conclusion, technology has revolutionized education by personalizing learning, expanding access to resources, and fostering collaboration. However, careful consideration must be given to the potential health impacts and the digital divide to ensure that the benefits of technology are equitably enjoyed. Ultimately, the transformative partnership between technology and education holds the potential to reshape the way we learn and empower students to thrive in the digital age.。
世纪英语综合教程1第八版作文
世纪英语综合教程1第八版作文英文回答：As a student using the Century English Comprehensive Course 1 8th Edition, I have found the writing exercises to be both challenging and rewarding. One of the writing tasks that stood out to me was the one about describing a memorable vacation. I chose to write about my trip to Bali last summer, where I experienced the beautiful beaches, delicious food, and rich culture of the island.In my essay, I vividly described the stunning sunsets I witnessed on the beaches of Bali, the mouth-watering seafood dishes I tried at local restaurants, and the traditional Balinese dances I watched at a cultural show. I also included details about the friendly locals I met and the peaceful atmosphere that surrounded me throughout my stay.Writing about my vacation in Bali allowed me topractice using descriptive language, organizing my thoughts coherently, and engaging the reader with my personal experiences. It was a great opportunity to showcase my writing skills and share a piece of my life with others.Overall, the writing exercises in the Century English Comprehensive Course 1 8th Edition have helped me improvemy writing abilities and express myself more effectively in English. I look forward to completing more writing tasksand continuing to enhance my language skills through this course.中文回答：作为使用《世纪英语综合教程1第八版》的学生，我发现写作练习既具有挑战性又有回报性。

您订购了二十包绿色复印纸，但我们的供应商说他们只能在周五发此货。
若其他颜色的复印纸他们可以立刻发货。另一种颜色——蓝色可以吗？或者您 愿意等待？ 此外，供应商发来的新信封跟以前的存货宽度不一致，其他均相同。这可 以吗？ 顺便问一下，贵方预订的另一个文件柜可以是两个或四个抽屉。您想要哪 一种？ 请尽快告知我们您的决定。希望我们合作愉快！ 致良好的祝愿 约翰

Dear Janet,
General Rules of Business Writing
I am writing to you about your order of August 25th.
You asked for twenty packets of green photocopy paper but unfortunately our suppliers have said that although they can send almost any other color right away, they can only send that one to us on Friday. Would you like to take another color — the blue’s nice — or will you wait? In addition, the new envelops they’ve sent us are not as wide as the old stock without other differences. Is this all right? By the way, you asked for another filing cabinet. It could be either two or four drawers. Which one do you want? Please let us know your decisions ASAP. Hope we can have a good cooperation! Best wishes. John

Dear Susan, Sorry for my late response, but I was traveling and also have been busy organizing the business structure of our operations here in China. So far, we are settled and ready to start. I want to introduce to you Iris Zhang. She will be our representative here in China
M: Hello, this is John in Purchasing. It’s about Janet Smith’s order of January 25th. Can I have a word with her? W: Sorry, John. This is Tom. She won’t be in till tomorrow, but you can leave her a message. M: Thanks. I’m afraid we’ve got one or two problems with some of the items she ordered. She asked for twenty packets of green photocopy paper but unfortunately our suppliers have said that although they can send almost any other color right away, they can only send that one to us on Friday. Can you ask her if she’ll take another color — the blue’s nice — or will she wait? W: OK. Is that all then? M: No, there’re a couple of other questions, I’m afraid. The new envelops they’ve sent us are not as wide as the old stock; there’s not much difference but they’re a little narrower. Could you ask her if that’s all right? W: OK. Anything else? M: Oh yes, she asked for another filing cabinet. Can she confirm the size — it could be either two or four drawers — which does she want? If she could let me know as soon as possible.

General Rthe following conversation between a man and a woman. Pay attention to the underlined parts. Suppose you could not make the phone call because of the time difference, send Janet an email instead to explain the situation.
Various e-mails and faxes need to be written to customers, suppliers, distributors, or manufacturers / producers in a company; to win business in the sharp competition, attractive profiles and effective descriptions of products are quite helpful; to learn about the development and problems of the company, a business report is a reliable source; to remind someone of something briefly, a simple memo might be the best choice. All these activities are concerned with writing. Since no deal would be made without writing, it is necessary to be familiar with the essential elements of effective business writings. Before joining in a company, you need first of all to prepare a good CV or sometimes a proper application letter. When you get the job at last, writing emails or faxes may become one part of your routine jobs. At the same time, memos, letters, reports and so on are also unavoidable in your working life. This book will lead you to experience all these business writings.
