MODULE 22.1 Company benefitsMain TasksTask 1 Exam Practice: Speaking Test—Part 2Task 2 Business Skills: Presenting your companyTask 3 Exam Spotlight: Writing Test—Part 1T ask 1: Speaking T est—Part 2I.Speaking PracticeThere’re a number of points to consider then arranging in-house training. The first thing is the training needs of staff. As we know, the object of training is the staff. Only when we know and meet their requirements, can we improve their knowledge and skills needed for higher quality performance and more effective work. Otherwise, it will be purposeless and a waste of time.The second thing to remember is the quality and influence of the trainer. To make the training effective, the trainer plays a very important role. A qualified trainer with great influence can make the training more professional, appealing and convincing. Since most staff nowadays are quite busy, they will not attend a training offered by an obscure, inexperience and non-professional trainer.In addition to that, length of training should be well-planned. It cannot be too long or too short.A lengthy training may be tedious and exhaustive; while too short training may be fruitless.OK, I think that just covers everything. Thank you!When selecting applicants for a job, the first thing to consider is their personal qualities. A candidate with relevant qualities can ensure that he or she has the required abilities, knowledge or techniques pertinent to that job. And companies don’t have to prepare further training for them when they start work thus reduces costs.Secondly, a candidate needs to have previous working experience, since a person with lots ofacademic certificates may not know how to cope with real situations. However, a candidate with experience will find it much easier to adapt himself or herself to the work environment and to play his or her role.Apart from these, you also need to consider the communicating ability of the candidate. By communicative skills, we mean having the ability to express ideas clearly, be cooperative and get on well with other people which will be very important for him or her to play a good part in the team work.Well, that’s all my points. Thank you!T ask 2: Presenting your companyTask 1) Vocabulary—Company termsReference expressionsnew-hire training 新员工培训orientation新员工培训，迎新会vocational training / professional training职业培训management training管理培训develop a good training program to keep the staff motivated通过开发良好的培训计划来提高员工的工作热情Many entrepreneurs see to view employee training and development as more optional than essential … a viewpoint that can be costly to both short-term profits and long-term progress许多企业家认为员工的培训和发展可有可无，而非至关重要，认为这对公司的短期利益和长远发展来说代价太高。

Thanks for listening.Are there any questions?Module 2.1 Company benefitsBenefits and incentivesV ocabulary1) Ask students to work alone as they rank the ten items and then compare and discuss in pairs. Make sure they give reasons.ExtensionIn Part Two of the Speaking Test, students might need to give a one-minute presentation entitled, "What is important when choosing a job?". Put students in pairs and tell them to practise a similar presentation, taking turns to be the examiner or the candidate. Students can use some of the ideas listed in exercise 1.2) 2.1 Students listen out for five of the benefits and incentives in exercise 1. Note that this is a similar task to Part Two of the Listening Test.Answers1 a company car2 flexible working hours3 parental leave4 an impressive job title5 a pension2.1 Listening scriptSpeaker 1 It's great because usually it means my wife can use the one at home and we even take mine away at weekends. 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. So I'll probably try and keep working for a few more years, and anyway, I heard the government is planning to raise the age of retirement...Is working for Xerox too good to be true?Reading3) Set students a time limit of about three minutes to answer the question. The aim is to find any benefits andincentives, but tell students not to read in too much detail at this stage.Answersopportunities for promotion, training and staff development, a pension*Note that the article also mentions a "reward and recognition scheme" which is another form of incentive.4) Now students read the article in much more detail to answer questions 1-5. Refer them to the Exam Success tip on reading the complete text before answering any questions.Answers1 B2 A3 C4 B5 CExpressions with takeV ocabulary5 As a quick lead-in, ask students to brainstorm collocations and expressions they can think of with take, eg take a day off, take a taxi, take a break, take off, etc.Answers1 take (Moloney's comments) with a pinch of salt2 take care of3 Take (Carole Palmer)4 took part in5 takes on6 takes seriouslyExtensionAsk students to write six new sentences using take from the exercise. They can relate the sentences to their own work or life, eg I'd take the news of a pay rise with a pinch of salt. (not so sure, doubtfully)Module 2.1 Company benefitsAsking questions about jobsSpeaking1) Tell students to imagine they were the journalist writing the article on Xerox on the previous page. 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. This exercise should be a review for students at this level and provides some basic questions for asking about a job.Answers1 How long have you been working for the company?2 When did you join (the company)?3 What was your first job?4 What are you responsible for?5 Where are you based?6 What would you like to do in the future?2) Students practice asking and answering the questions. If possible, try to pair students who haven't yet met in the class. Make sure the answers use the correct tense and give feedback.The PastGrammar3) Students match the three verb forms to the correct tense definitions.AnswersPast simple: startedPresent perfect: has movedPresent perfect continuous: has been workingRefer students to the Grammar reference on page 128. 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. When checking answers, ask students to try and explain their choice.Answers1 began2 trademarked3 became4 has been5 has been working6 has been7 took partPhotocopiable activity 2.1See page 162.5) Students complete the letter of application with the verbs in different tenses.Answers1 have been working2 joined3 have had4 have been considering5 has expanded / has been expanding (we are unsure if the expansion has ended)6 completed7 have been studying8 has agreedA letter of applicationWriting6) Begin by asking students if they have ever applied for a job. 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. Before that I worked as a receptionist and secretary for two years.I have a good knowledge of English as I completed a course at college and I am also fluent in Italian having lived in Rome for the summer in 2006. 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. Answers16,000,000,000 turnover978,000,000,000 final income160 countries55,000 employeeshalf of 55,000 in the USA4 divisions6% of revenue dedicated to research and development 5,000,000,000 dollars revenue in Europe (over) 2,000,000,000 dollars rest of world revenue 1906 company founded 112,000,000,000 total marketPhotocopiabel activity 2.2See page 163.5) 2.2 Give students time to study the flowchart and read the expressions. 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 is taking some of the risk and bringing in the support of other people.D. AdvertisingE. Arranging in-house trainingThere are a number of points to consider when arranging in-house training. The first thing is the training needs of staff. Only when we know and meet their requirements,can we improve their knowledge and skills needed for higher quality performance and more effective work. Otherwise, it will be purposeless(无决心的，无意义的，漫无目的的) and a waste of time.The second thing to remember is the quality and influence of the trainer. To make the training effective, the trainer have plays a very important role. A qualified trainer with great influence can make the training more professional, appealing and convincing. Since most staff nowadays are quite busy, they will not attend a training offered by an obscure, inexperienced and non-professional trainer.In addition to that, length of training should be well-planned.It cannot be too long or too short. A lengthy training may be tedious and exhaustive;while too short training may be fruitless.F.Selecting applicants for a jobWhen selecting applicants for a job, the first thing to consider is their personal qualities. A candidate with relevant qualities can ensure that he or she has the required abilities, knowledge or techniques pertinent to that job. And companies don't have to prepare further training for them when they start work thus reduces costs.Secondly , a candidate needs to consider the communicating ability ofi the candidate. By communicative skills , we mean having the ability to express ideas clearly , be cooperative and get on well with other people which will be very important for him or her to play a good part in the team work./doc/289715807.html,pany benefits(how to keep a staff)None cash rewards(rewards in financial as well as psychological)1.an impressive job title2.A good salary3.Flexible working hours4.Opportunities for promotion(promotion from within , intake ; )5.Days off and long holidays6.Training and staff development (vice-president incumbent programme)7.A pension8.Opportunities to travel (once-in-a-lifetime incentive trips)9.Parental leave10.A company car11.Working environmentH.advertisement1.word of mouthWe tend to listen to our friends' recommendations more than anything else so word of mouth is probably the most effective.2.MailshotsPizza delivery firms often do mailshots in the local area.

When I visit a website , I don't think I even notice them.6.Newspaper advertI suppose it's good if you're looking for a job locally and newspaper adverts are relatively cheap.7.BrochuresPeople use brochures less and less because they can just go online if they want to find out what's available.8.SampleIt's great when you get a free sample because you can really see what it's like .I. Employee trainingCommunication, computer skills , customer service , diversity , ethics , human relatives , safety , sexual harassmentBenefits:(1)Increased job satisfaction and morale among employees.(2)Increased employee motivation.(3)Increased efficiencies in processes , resulting in financial gain.(4)Increased capacity to adopt new technologies and methods.(5)Increased innovation in strategies and products.(6)Reduced employee turnover.(7)Enhanced company image.(8)Risk managing.As a supervisor(主管), you must be impartial(公平) in selecting employees for a training. You should base your training decision on sound management practices without regard to factors such as race , color , religion , sex , sexual orientation (性取向), national origin , disability , or age.Training is important for me to handle new and more demanding assignments , maintain effective and satisfactory performance. Offering employees training should be the obligation(义务、责任) of modern organisations.What's important when designing an effective training plan?When designing an effective training plan,it's important to consider training needs, company budgets and employee commitment.Firstly, you should take time to carefully analyse your needs, figure out whether the designed training is absolutely required, or nice to have? This will help you identify your priority and choose the right type of training for your requirements.Secondly, you need to have agreement from the senior person in your company that training is a priority. This person willneed to support the plan fully and agree to the budget. The amount of budget will determine what type of training you will use and how you will offer it .Last but not least, employee commitment (许诺、委托事项) is also required . Talk to your staff about their needs and goals for training . This will ensure your employees respond positively to your investment in their development. They will then value and embrace opportunities to learn new skills , thus achieving your desired effects.J. Entertaining business clientsWhen entertaining business clients, we need , first of all, to decide on the most suitable venue for the event to take place. We will probably find out in our first contact with our clients if they are more of art lovers or sports fans or gourmets(美食家), and then choose the type of entertainment: whether it should be in a restaurant or in the theatre of in some other appropriate venue for the event.It is also very important for us to have a clear plan in mind when we come to the meeting. We need to work out a list of specific business objectives to achieve. Therefore while making sure our business clients enjoy themselves, we quietly and smoothly direct the meeting step by step towards our goal.The other important aspect is the timing for bringing up the subject of business. Because inopportune(不合时宜的、不合适) mentioning of the matter of business may embarrass our clients at a social setting and discourage their interest in the business you intend to do and even ruin a fine business opportunity.K. Planing a meeting / conferenceCreating an agenda is very important when planing a meeting. Doing so helps participants know what they shouldtalking about and keeps the conversation focused. All items to be discussed at the meeting should be listed on the agenda and the purpose of each item should be clearly indicated. Make sure copies of the agenda are available before the meeting.The size of a meeting depends on its purpose. A meeting for passing on information to employees can be fairly large, for few questions and comments are expected from the audience. If it's a meeting where different ideas are contributed and a decision is to be reached, its size should be controlled to save time.A suitable venue is also important. It should be a place be a place convenient to all participants so that everyone can arrive on time.L. Attending a meeting / conferenceWhen you're deciding whether to attend a conference, speakers are a very important factor to consider. If they are well-known people knowing a lot about a particular field, or from big multinationals, the conference will be likely to be informative and you may benefit a lot from it.Venue is not so important , but if the conference is held in a place with beautiful surroundings,more people will go and it's good for you to do some useful networking.Topics covered are also very important, since you can really benefit from a conference only when what the speakers talk about is what you're interested in or what relates to your work.Also, if there is an exhibition during the conference, there would be more participants.M. Giving a presentationWhen planning a presentation, it's important t o research the topic. By doing so , you can have access to more information anddetails about the topic, better understand the topic, and gather more supporting ideas to make your presentation convincing and impressive.Another important thing to do is to practice beforehand,like looking over your notes, practising what you're going to say, and trying to feel you really want to share your subject with your audience. It's an effective way to be familiar with what you're to talk about and to get a feel of speaking to the public. That can help you free from nervousness or stage fright cause by lack of experience in public speaking. You can be more confident and give a better performance.Dressing properly is also important. The clothes you wear are what gets the audience's attention first and will have a significant impact on how people feel about you and what you are saying to them.N. Trade fairs and exhibitions。
