体验商务英语(第二版)课件第2册案例unit 10 Dialogue practice
A: Mr. Johnson. Can I have a word with you?B: Oh, Bill. Sure. Come in, please. What is it?A: The workers said that the company had stopped subsidizing the drinks and meals in the company restaurant and had thus resulted in a 50% price increase. The workers are not very happy about it. We want the company to resume the subsidies immediately.B: Look, Bill. You’ve got to understand that the company is having a hard time right now. We have to reduce the costs, or the staff’s salaries will be affected.A: But, according to the contract we signed when we started working here, the subsidized restaurant is part of the terms and conditions of work. I don’t think the workers can accept that. B: I know that, Bill. But things are changing. It is just for the benefits of the company. We have made careful investigations before we make the decision. As far as I know, our staff restaurant is still offering good value for money. In spite of the cuts in subsidies, prices in our restaurant are still similar to those in other companies in the area.A: But I think that the management should have fully consulted the workers before getting the price increase into effect.B: Perhaps this is what we have neglected. Look, Bill. I’ll report what we have just discussed to the Board of Directors and get back to you as soon as possible. Is that all right?A: All right. Thank you, Mr. Johnson. See you.B: See you. Bill.。
大学英语精读文本第2册UNIT 10
UNIT 10TEXTAre we too quick to blame and slow to praise? It seems we are.Profits of PraiseIt was the end of my exhausting first day as waitress in a busy New York restaurant. My cap had gone awry, my apron was stained, my feet ached. The loaded trays I carried felt heavier and heavier. Weary and discouraged, I didn't seem able to do anything right. As I made out a complicated check for a family with several children who had changed their ice-cream order a dozen times, I was ready to quit.Then the father smiled at me as he handed me my tip. "Well done," he said. "You've looked after us really well."Suddenly my tiredness vanished. I smiled back, and later, when the manager asked me how I'd liked my first day, I said, "Fine!" Those few words of praise had changed everything.Praise is like sunlight to the human spirit; we cannot flower and grow without it. And yet, while most of us are only too ready to apply to others the cold wind of criticism, we are somehow reluctant to give our fellows the warm sunshine of praise.Why - when one word can bring such pleasure? A friend of mine who travels widely always tries to learn a little of the language of any place she visits. She's not much of a linguist, but she does know how to say one word - "beautiful" - in several languages. She can use it to a mother holding her baby, or to lonely salesman fishing out pictures of his family. The ability has earned her friends all over the world.It's strange how chary we are about praising. Perhaps it's because few of us know how to accept compliments gracefully. Instead, we are embarrassed and shrug off the words we are really so glad to hear. Because of this defensive reaction, direct compliments are surprisingly difficult to give. That is why some of the most valued pats on the back are those which come to us indirectly, in a letter or passed on by a friend. When one thinks of the speed with which spiteful remarks are conveyed, it seems a pity that there isn't more effort to relay pleasing and flattering comments.It's especially rewarding to give praise in areas in which effort generally goes unnoticed or unmentioned. An artist gets complimented for a glorious picture, a cook for a perfect meal. But do you ever tell you laundry manager how pleased you are when the shirts are done just right? Do you ever praise your paper boy for getting the paper to you on time 365 days a year?Praise is particularly appreciated by those doing routine jobs: gas-station attendants, waitresses - even housewives. Do you ever go into a house and say, "What a tidy room"? Hardly anybody does. That's why housework is considered such a dreary grind. Comment is often made about activities which are relatively easy and satisfying, like arranging flowers; but not about jobs which are hard and dirty, like scrubbing floors. Shakespeare said, "Our praises are our wages." Since so often praise is the only wage a housewife receives, surely she of all people should get her measure.Mothers know instinctively that for children an ounce of praise is worth a pound of scolding. Still, we're not always as perceptive as we might be about applying the rule. One day I wascriticizing my children for squabbling. "Can you never play peacefully?" I shouted. Susanna looked at me quizzically. "Of course we can," she said. "But you don't notice us when we do."Teachers agree about the value of praise. One teacher writes that instead of drowning students' compositions in critical red ink, the teacher will get far more constructive results by finding one or two things which have been done better than last time, and commenting favorably on them. "I believe that a student knows when he has handed in something above his usual standard," writes the teacher, "and that he waits hungrily for a brief comment in the margin to show him that the teacher is aware of it, too."Behavioral scientists have done countless experiments to prove that any human being tends to repeat an act which has been immediately followed by a pleasant result. In one such experiment, a number of schoolchildren were divided into three groups and given arithmetic tests daily for five days. One group was consistently praised for its previous performance; another group was criticized; the third was ignored.Not surprisingly, those who were praised improved dramatically. Those who were criticized improved also, bus not so much. And the scores of the children who were ignored hardly improved at all. Interestingly the brightest children were helped just as much by criticism as by praise, but the less able children reacted badly to criticism, needed praise the most. Yet the latter are the very youngsters who, in most schools, fail to get the pat on the back.To give praise costs the giver nothing but a moment's thought and a moment's effort - perhaps a quick phone call to pass on a compliment, or five minutes spent writing an appreciative letter. It is such a small investment - and yet consider the results it may produce. "I can live for two months on a good compliment," said Mark Twain.So, let's be alert to the small excellences around us - and comment on them. We will not only bring joy into other people's lives, but also, very often, added happiness into out own.NEW WORDSprofitn. advantage or good obtained from sth... money gained in business 益处;利润exhaustvt. tire out 使筋疲力尽waitressn. woman waiterawrya. with a turn to one side 歪;斜apronn. 围裙stainvt. make dirty marks on 玷污loadvt. put a full amount of things on or in (sth.) 装满trayn. 托盘wearya. very tired 厌倦的,厌烦的discouragevt. cause to lose courage or confidence 使泄气,使灰心ice-creamn. 冰淇淋dozenn. twelve (一)打quitv. stop (doing sth.) and leave 离(职),不干sunlightn. light of the sun; sunshinehumana. of or concerning peopleapplyvt. 运用,实施applicationn.somehowad. for some reacon or other; in some way or other 不知怎么地,以某种方式reluctanta. unwilling 不情愿的;勉强的sunshinen. light of the sunlinguistn. person who is good at foreign languages; person who studies the science of language 通晓数国语言的人;语言学家salesmann. man whose work is selling a company's goods to businesses, homes, etc. 推销员earnvt. get in return for work or as a reward for one's qualities, etc. 挣得,赢得charya. careful; cautious 谨慎小心的complimentn. praise 赞美(话)vt. praise 赞美gracefullyad. 大大方方地;优美地gracefula.embarrassvt. make awkward or ashamed 使尴尬defensivea. 防御surprisinglyas. in a surprising manner or degreepatn. tap made with the open hand 轻拍v. tap gently with the open handindirectlyad. in an indirect way 间接地indirecta.spitefula. having or showing ill will 恶意的conveyvt. make (ideas, views, feelings, etc.) know to another person 转达,传达relayvt. 传送;传达flattervt. praise too much; praise insincerely (in order to please) 过奖;谄媚,奉承commentn. opinion, explanation or judgment written or spoken about an event, book, person, state of affairs, etc. 评论vi. make comments (on); give opinionsrewardinga. worthwhile; worth doing; giving a reward to 值得(做)的;报答的rewardvt.generallyad. usually 通常,一般地artistn. person who practises or works in one of the fine arts, esp. painting 画家,艺术家gloriousa. splendid 辉煌的laundryn. 洗衣店appreciatevt. understand and enjoy; be thankful for 欣赏,鉴赏;感谢,感激routinea. not unusual or exciting; regular 常规的,例行的gas-stationn. 加油站attendantn. 服务人员tidya. neatly arranged 整洁的,整齐的houseworkn. work done on taking care of a house 家务劳动drearya. dull and uninteresting 沉闷乏味的grindn. hard uninteresting work 苦差使scrubvt. clean by rubbing hard, esp. with a stiff brush 擦洗wagen.

外语系教案第次课学时:授课时间:第周Context: Unit 1Title: IntroductionsThe tone of a business relationship can be set by an initial introduction. It is important to make a good impression right from the first handshake. When meeting businesspeople for the first time, is it better to be formal or informal? If in doubt, advise students to adopt a more formal approach. Here are some points to remember when making business introductions in English-speaking Western countries:a.Introduce businesspeople in order of professional rank –the person of highestauthority is introduced to others in the group in descending order, depending on their professional position.b.When possible, stand up when introductions are being made.c.If clients are present, they should be introduced first.d.The same and title of the person being introduced is followed by the name and titleof the other person.PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs listen to four businesspeople and match the speakers to their business cards. Vocabulary 1: Job titlesSs list word as job titles or departments. Then Ss talk about their jobs or studies. Vocabulary 2: NationalitiesSs match countries and nationalities.Reading: Describing peopleThis reading section can be completed in two parts.

They then practice introductions.Lesson 4Case study: Aloha in HawaiiSs find out information about people at a conference.WritingSs write an e-mail about two people from the conference.第次课学时:授课时间:第周Context: Unit 2Title:Work and leisureIt has never been easy to balance work and leisure. During the late twentieth century the concept of a job for life was largely replaced by the short-term contracts favored by the enterprise culture. Some found themselves with too much free time n their hands when company restructures led to redundancies. Others saw leisure time shrink and working hours increase in exchange for greater financial rewards. The British TUC estimates that, despite European Union legislation, 4 million people in the UK work more than 48 hours per week and 1 in 25 work over 60 hours. It is thought that managers and professional staff work the longest hours.PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs listen to four people talking about what they want from work and make word partnerships.Vocabulary 1: Days, months, datesSs practice days, months and dates and use the prepositions in, at and on with time phrases.Lesson 2Reading: Describing your routineSs read an article about the working day of Michael Dell, Chairman of Dell computers.

Afterwards they talk about their own work and leisure activities.Lesson 4Case study: Independent Film CompanySs role play an interview between Human Resources and unhappy employees of a film company.WritingSs use the information from the case study to list the working conditions they want to change.第次课学时:授课时间:第周Context: Unit 3Title:ProblemsProblems are a fact of life. So problem-solving is an essential life skill both at home and in the office. Many pressurized managers in the modern business world may benefit from training in conflict resolution to resolve disagreements. It is wise to deal with sensitive matters face-to-face. Irate e-mails and memos often contain sentiments we would modify if speaking to the person directly. Social psychologist Albert Merabian says that words account for seven percent of communication, tone 38 percent and body language 55 percent. These elements are particularly useful in understanding and resolving potential conflict situation but can be lost in cyber communication. PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs match sentences and problems and listen to five phone calls to identify the product and the problem.Vocabulary: AdjectivesSs look at the adjectives and their opposites and use too and enough.Lesson 2Reading: Dealing with problems at workFour people answer the question: ‘What are the biggest problems facing your company?’Language focus 1: Present simple: negatives and questionsSs match questions and answers, make negative sentences and practice the question forms in a role play.Lesson 3Language focus 2: have gotSs look at the use of have got, haven’t got and Have you got? To talk about possession. Skills: Telephoning: solving problemsSs listen to four phone calls where people talk about problems. Then they role play a phone conversation talking about problems with a product.Lesson 4Case study: Blue HorizonGuests of a holiday company compare their holiday apartments with the holiday brochure and complain to a representative of the company.WritingSs listen to a voice mail and write a telephone message for the manager of Blue Horizon. 第次课学时:授课时间:第周Context: Unit 4Title:TravelAround 1400 BC Polynesians paddled across the open ocean in canoes, serching for new trading partners, and the age of business travel began. The modern businessperson is more likely to choose flying as the quickest way of getting from A to B. Although safer than canoe, this can still pose hazards. Frequent fliers are likely to encounter a number of hurdles that can lead to increased stress levels. First, you have to acturally get on the plane. Most airlines overbook to minimise seat wastage and no-shows. This means that if all the passengers who actually booked seats turn up, there could be a shortage of place. If there are not enough volunteers to give up their seats, then you may find yourself bumped – denied boarding and put on a later flight.PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs talk about things they like and don't like when travelling on business. Vocabulary: Travel detailsSs practise the alphabet and numbers 1-100 and match verbs and travel phrases. Listening: Listening for informationSs listen and answer questions about travel information.Lesson 2Language focus 1: can/ can’tSs put a dialogue into the correct order and then listen to check. Then Ss role play a conversation using can/ can’t.Reading: Business hotelsSs read about facilities in The Tower Hotel.Lesson 3Language focus 2: there is/ there areSs complete sentences using ther is/ there are and carry out a role play about a new job abroad.Skills: Making bookings and checking arrangmentsSs listen and answer questions about booking a hotel room before role playing a similar situation.Lesson 4Case study: Pacific HotelA hotel manager and assistant manager allocate rooms to twelve guests at a small hotel. WritingSs write a fax to one of the guests confirming arrangements.第次课学时:授课时间:第周Context: Unit 5Title:Food and entertainmentFood can communicate complex messages about status, nationally and identity. The fashion for eating out in restaurant was adopted by the upper classes during the French revolution. Most English words relating to eating out are adopted from the French (hotel, café, menu, chef, etc.) including restaurant, which was originally from the French verb meaning ‘to store’. Later, the migrations of the twentieth century proved fertile ground for mingling cuisines and a knowledge of the vast variety on offer is viewed as a mark of modern cosmopolitan taste.PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs talk about the kind of food they like and match dishes and countries. Vocabulary: Eating outSs look at food groups and different parts of a menu.Reading: TippingThis reading section can be completed in two parts. Ss match jobs with places where people work. Then Ss talk about what services they tip before completing a table about which countries tip most often (Exercises A-C).Lesson 2Reading: TippingSs read an article about factors that encourage people to tip and answer comprehension questions (Exercises D-E).Language focus 1: some/anySs correct mistakes using some and any and underline the correct words in a dialogue. Listening: Ordering a mealSs listen to what a man and a woman order in a restaurant.Lesson 3Language focus 2: Countable and uncountable nounsSs identify countable nouns and complete exercises using a lot of, many or much. Skills: EntertainingSs look at language for entertaining visitors in a restaurant and listen and respond to a waiter’s questions.Lesson 4Case study: Which restaurant?Three colleagues decide which restaurants to choose to entertain three important customers.WritingSs write an e-mail inviting a customer to dinner and giving details about the restaurant. 第次课学时:授课时间:第周Context: Unit 6Title:SalesThings have come a long way since the days when peddlers went from door to door selling wares from a pack. Now advertisements pop up as text messages. Goods can be ordered by mall order. We can compare prices, get quotes, check if an item is in stock and place an order without moving away from our computer screen. In some ways the methods o buying and selling have undergone a revolution and in others little has changed since the early 1900s when keywords in sales were service and relationships. A modern sales force uses a mixture of tried and tested techniques and new technology to increase sales. The foundation of modern sales techniques was developed in the 1950s and includes gaining the client’s interest, building desire by showing product features or giving samples, increasing conviction by comparing the product with competitors or using statistics to highlight benefits and, finally, closing the deal.PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs listen to three people talk about where and when they buy products. Vocabulary 1: Buying and sellingSs complete a sales leaflet for a computer company and listen to a conversation between a buyer and seller.Lesson 2Reading: Thirsty for success?Ss read a job advertisement for a sales representative in a soft drinks company. Language focus 1: Past simpleSs complete a sales report using the past simple.Vocabulary 2: Buying and sellingSs complete a leaflet for a car hire company.Lesson 3Listening: SellingKevin Warren, the Vice President, Sales and Marketing, of Coca-Cola Enterprises, gives some advice to salespeople.Language focus 2: Past time referencesSs are introduced to expressions that refer to the past, such as ago, last (week), for, on, from… to, in and during.Skills: Presenting a productSs listen to a salesperson presenting a product at a trade fair. Then they role play being the buyer and seller at a trade fair.Lesson 4Case study: Link-up LtdA company sells mobile phones and service packages. Ss role play being salespeople and customers.WritingSs write an e-mail to a colleague about what phone and service package a customer wants, using information from the case study.第次课学时:授课时间:第周Context: Unit 7Title:PeopleWhat charactreristics can help people to succeed in business and in life? A positive attitude, intelligence, perserverance and self discipline all help. Are the personality traits that contribute to success or failiure genetic? Or do we learn these characeristics are we grow up? Experts still disagree as to whether nature or nurture is more important.Can personality and intelligence be measured? IQ and psychometric tests remain popular, and the latter are still used by many companies as part of the selection process. However, in recent years the idea that only one type of intelligence exists has been criticised. Howard Gardner developed the theory of multiple intelligence. This said that people have a number of different types of intelligence that they possess to varying degrees. These are linguistic, musical, logical-mathematical, spatical, body-kinesthetic, intrapersonal(e.g. insight) and interpersonal (e.g. social skills and the ability to understand and motivate other people).PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs answer a questionnaire about what sort of person they are.Vocabulary: Describing peopleSs look at the adjectives to describe people’s personalities.Listening: A difficult colleagueA property developer talks about a colleague who left the company.Lesson 2Language focus 1: Past simple: negatives and questionsSs focus on past simple negatives and questions and write questions using Why, How long, What, When and Where.Reading: Stella McCartneySs read an article about the fashion designer Stella McCartney.

Then they role paly a conversation negotiating a new company car.Lesson 4Case study: A people problemA US food coompany has problems with a business manager.WritingSs write a memo aobut their meeting.第次课学时:授课时间:第周Context: Unit 8Title:MarketsIf a company wants to sell a product or service successfully, it ust identify the target market. There are many different types of market to choose from. The mass market aims to sell to as many people as possible, crossing age and income groups. In contrast, a niche market focuses on a narrowly defined group fo customers. It often caters to a need that has been overlooked by those suppliers who cater to markets which deal in more mainstream products or sevices. Focussing on niche markets can be cost effective as marketing campaigns can sim budgets directly at potential customers, for example through advertising on local radil or in magazines targeting special interst gorups. PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs ask and answer questions about a populatioin pie chart.Vocabulary: Types of marketSs listen and repeat large numbers and look at adjectives to describe markets.Lesson 2Reading: The car market in ChinaSs answer quesitons and search for large numbers in an article aobut the Chiese car market.Language focus 1: Comparatives and superlativesSs practice comparative and superlative forms of adjectives..Lesson 3Listening: Doing business in RussiaSs listen to three parts of a presentation about doing business in Russia.Language focus 2: much/ a lot, a little/ a bitSs use the language to compare cars and pool talbes and use a bar chart to talk about sales in Russia and Poland.Skills: Telephoning: solving problemsSs listen to three marketing executives talking about a new snack bar and then role play taking part in a marketing meeting.Lesson 4Case study: Cara CosmeticsA body care company is launching a new shampoo. Ss siscuss the name , size and price of the product, main outlet and income group of the target market.WritingSs write a short description of the new shampoo for Cara Cosmetics catalogue.第次课学时:授课时间:第周Context: Unit 9Title:CompaniesA company is an organisation that produces goods or services to make a profit. There ar e many different types.A small business might become a medium or large business. If a company sells directly to the public, it is a retil business. A wholesale business sells goods in bulk to other companies. Some companies have Ltd in their name. This stands for limited company. Here, shareholders only lose what they invested if the company goes bankrupt. A company with PLC after its name is a Public limited company – its shares can be freely bought and sold. In contrast a Private limited company only passes shares to another person if other shareholders agree. A conglomerate consists of several companies that have joined together. A multinational or transnational company has global operations in many different countries.PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs do a companies quiz and then talk about famous companies from their country. Listening: The Mini rangeSs listen to the Corporate Communications Managers for the Mini range of cars at BMW.

Changes are taking place at an incredible speed. Hardware is becoming more compact, faster and more affordable, allowing more individuals and companies to utilise the Net. In the past, research took longer, important documents got lost in the post and information could be difficult to find. Unfortunately this revolution has brought with it a new set of problems. Research is certainly quicker but connections can be slow, making it difficult to access the websites that you need. Documents can still get lost, but now they float around cyberspace. Spam can be a problem when you e-mail account becomes overloaded with advertising that you don't want. But more sinister are the various computer viruses which can make your computer crash. And not all countries have equal access to the advantages of new technology. PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs listen to people talking about what they use the Internet for and then talk about their own Internet use.Vocabulary: Internet termsSs read advice about using the Internet and match Internet terms with their definitions.Listening: Website designA website designer talks about his job.Lesson 2Language focus 1: Talking about future plansSs look at the use of the present continuous for future use and going to for future plans.

It is easier to make a good impression in our own culture than in another, where our knowledge of the language and rules of behavior may be limited. Knowledge of the protocol and etiquette in the countries we do business with is essential. Protocol is adhering to the correct procedures and conduct in formal situations. This involves knowing the acceptable way to behave and includes formalities of rank, which denotes the level of a person’s position in an organisation.

Despite the growth of outsourcing (buying in services that were previously performed by a company’s employees from outside the organisation) and teleworking by freelancers working from home communicating via the Internet, most professional people still go to what is recognisably a job in a building that is recognisably an office.

The dotcom frenzy of the late 1990s, with companies raising vast amounts of money from investors, for example just to sell dog food over the Internet, came and went, and some organisations removed the dotcom suffix from their names, so much did it become a synonym for failure. E-commerce courses in business schools are no longer oversubsribed and no longer preaching that ‘everything has changed’. Companies look more at how e-commerce can be used in conjunction with other methods of selling: in retailing this means clicks and mortar, combining traditional retail outlets with online operations, ratther than investing in a whole new expensive infrastructure.PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs talk about traditional shopping versus buying online and goods typically bought online Vocabulary: Shopping onlineSs work on words related to buying and selling.Listening: Selling onlineSs listen to the founder of the British operation of Amazon talk about how to succeed in online selling.Lesson 2Reading: Virtual pocket moneyTeenagers buy a lot online.

Their local subsidiaries give them sometimes global reach, even if their corporate culture, the way they do things, depends largely on their country of origin. But the tissue of most national economies is made up of much smaller organisations. Many countries owe much of their prosperity to SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprise) with tens or hundreds of employees, rather than the tens of thousands employed by large corporations. Small businesses with just a few employees are also important. Many governments hope that the small businesses of today will become the multinationals of tomorrow, but many owners of small companies chose to work that way because they find it more congenial and do not want to expand. PROCEDURESLesson 1Starting upSs talk about the types of company they would most like to work for and the business sector they work in now.Vocabulary: Company vocabularySs look at vocabulary used to describe companies and that used in company reports to describe performance.Listening: Reasons for successSs listen to the sales manager of a UK motocycle manufacturer talk about the factors that make his company successful.Lesson 2。

I: So what special needs do business travelers have?
K: One of the most important things is a quick check-in and check-out. After a long trip it’s annoying to have to wait at the hotel reception for five minutes. Room service is also very important. Guests often stay in their rooms working and don’t have the time to go out to a restaurant, so they want their meals to be served in their rooms.

We organized a successful conference at the Plaza two years ago, but this time we were very disappointed.The most serious problem was the interpreters from the agency recommended by your hotel. They did not speak the languages fluently and this led to misunderstandings between the participants and caused a lot of bad feelings.Considering the inconvenience we experienced at your hotel, I suggest a 20 percent reduction in the bill for the conference.I am looking forward to receiving your prompt reply.Yours sincerely(101 words)。
