题目自拟通过四节讲座与课堂讨论,在郑春雷老师的指导下,本人了解到高等教育阶段英语专业学习的内涵和范畴以及各门专业课程的学习方法、英语专业国际商务方向人才核心竞争力的构成要素与培养体系,并且了解闽南理工学院英语系的总体情况以及英语专业的专业定位、建设水平、就业前景和人才培养成效,并学会解读本专业的教学计划、掌握学分制和课程学习的相关要求。

大学本科教育的目的大学之所以为大学,我认为不仅仅是因为大学的教育对象与其他级别学校不同,同时还因为大学本科教育的目的与其他级别教育有着天壤之别。

众所周知,我国的中小学义务教育普遍为应试教育,老师传授知识给学生以便他们应付各种各样的考试。

而学生要想要有一个更为光明的前途,更璀璨的未来就必须参加各种各样的考试,以获得就读更高层次更高质量学校的机会,以求获得更好的教育。

但是来到大学,谈到本科教育,这绝不是为了考试而教育的应试教育,。

大学本科教育的根本目的是为大学生提供条件和平台,在把学生培养成人的同时把他们培养成才,就是在完善学生知识智能结构的基础上培养学生现代公民的素质,在对学生进行学术技能的训练的同时加强情感道德上的培养。

首先,在进行情感道德的培养方面,要培养学生拥有高尚的人格,塑造优良的品质以及健全的心智,同时还要锻炼强健的体魄,培养强烈的社会责任感和使命感。

自古以来修身、齐家、治国、平天下乃知识分子心怀的抱负,向来被读书人视为己任,同时,穷则独善其身,达则兼济天下乃是现代公民的责任和担当。

总的来说,大学是为社会、为国家服务的。

我认为高校英语专业的教育,它虽为大众教育、世俗教育,但绝不是庸俗教育,它的教育能使学生成为有教对社会对国家有用有贡献的人才。

因此,高等教育阶段英语专业教育的意义在于为国家为社会培养具有英语专业技能的高素质的人才。

而专业技能的培养不仅要注重语言基础本身的学习,更要注重文化底蕴的培养。

我想这就是高等教育阶段英语专业学习的内涵。

(二)高等教育阶段英语专业学习的范畴在大学本科阶段,作为英语专业学生的我们应该清楚知道,我们学习的范畴是包括语言方面以及文化方面两个部分的。

一、各类货运提单名词解释 1)提单 BILL OF LADING(简写B/L)是指一种用以证明海上运输合同和货物由承运人接管或装船,以及承运人据以保证在目的港交付的单证。 2)货运提单 HOUSE B/L 是指由货运代理人签发的提单。货运提单往往是货物从内陆运出并运至内陆时签发的。国际货代通常都使用此种提单。一般货代为满足客户的倒签或其他船东无法满足的要求时也使用这种提单。 3)船东提单MASTER B/L 是指由船东签发的提单。 4)已装船提单 SHIPPED OR BOARD B/L 指承运人向托运人签发的货物已经装船的提单。 5)收货待运提单或待运提单 RECEIVED FOR SHIPPING B/L 指承运人虽已收到货物但尚未装船时签发的提单。 6)直达提单 DIRECT B/L 指货物自装货港装船后,中途不经换船直接驶到卸货港卸货而签发的提单。 8)联运提单或称转船提单 THROUGH B/L 指承运人在装货港签发的中途得以转船运输而至目的港的提单。 9)多式联运提单 MT B/L 指货物由海上、内河、铁路、公路、航空等两种或多种运输方式进行联合运输而签的适用于全程运输的提单。 10)班轮提单 LINER B/L 班轮是在一定的航线上按照公布的时间表,在规定的港口间连续从事货运的船舶。班轮可分定线定期和定线不定期两种。 11)租船合同提单 CHARTER PARTY B/L 一般指用租船承运租船人的全部货物,船东签给租船人的提单,或者并非全部装运租船人的货物,而由船东或租船人所签发的提单。 12)记名提单 STRAIGHT B/L 是指只有提单上指名的收货人可以提货的提单,一般不具备流通性。
二.汇票条款 汇票属于金融单据(Financial Documents),是一种可转让的有价证券。目前绝大多数跟单信用证都有凭汇票支付款项的规定。汇票的各项内容必须严格符合有关条款的规定 ,不得随意涂改。下面是一些国外来证中所常见的汇票条款,供参考。 例1 All drafts must be marked“Drawn under the Royal Bank Of Canada, Montreal L/C No.XXX dated XXX and Banco de Chile, Santiago Credit No.XXX dated XXX.”上述出票条款(Drawn Clause)中有两家银行、两个信用证号码,两个开证日期。前者是转开证行也是指定的付款行或保兑行,后者是原始开证行。由于原始开证行与通知行无代理关系,因此通过另一家银行转开信用证,这样就出现两家银行、两个证号、和两个开证日期的条款,出口人在开立汇票时须按该条款的要求缮制。 注;在一般正常的情况下,出票条款中只打:一家开证行 、一个证号及一个开证日期。 例2 Draft must be drawn for HK$ equivalent of invoice value (RMB)converted at negotiating bank’s buying rate of exchange on day of negotiation. 上述条款摘自香港来证,信用证及买卖合同的币制均为外汇人民币,因汇票须在香港银行以港币支付,所以来证加列上述条款:,我可按议付日中国银行的港币买入价将外汇人民币折成港币开立汇票。例3 Draft to be enfaced with the following clause: "Payable with interest at bank’s current rate of interest pertaining to the currency of this bill from date hereof to the date of payment. 上述条款要求在汇票上注明开证行自汇票开发的日期(即议付日期)起至其转向进口人收回垫款之日止这段时间的利息 ,开证人应按条款规定偿付给开证行。事实上这是开证行与进口人之间的利息结算,与出口人无关。但出口人须按此条款缮制汇票,以符合信用证要求(一般由银行代加)。 例4 Draft at 90 days sight. We are authorized to pay interest at the rate of 9 % p.a. for full invoice value at maturity. Invoice and draft must show the amount of interest . 上述条款是90天远期汇票,见票后起算。开证行被授权按年息9厘计息到期付款。 发票与汇票上必须显示利息金额 。此条款表明货款金额连同利息都可于见票90天后在信用证项下支付,这就是真远期加利息。在发票上应打出Plus 90 days interest XXXX 然后再把货款加利息的总金额打在下面,汇票上应打出:“The amount of 90 days interest at 9% p.a. being XXXX is included”例5 Drafts for 50% invoice value payable at sight and for remaining 50%payable at 30 days after sight free of interest.(L/C amount USD20,000)Documents to be released after full pay meritof invoice Value. 上述条款系即期与远期信用证结合,应开两张汇票,半数即期付款,半数见票30天后付款,不计利息。开证行于收到全部货款后放单。 例6 Drafts at 180 days after sight drawn on Snitama Bank Ltd., Tokyo Office. Usance drafts drawn Under this L/C are to be negotiated at sight basis. Discount charges and acceptance commission are for account of accountee. 上述条款由日本银行开来,汇票开立远期见票180天付款, 但可即期议付,其承兑费和贴现费均由开证人负担。对受益人来说是即期信用证,通常称为假远期信用证。 例7 Documentary Credit available with yourselves by payment against presentation of the documents detailed herein..... 上述条款意为:该信用证可由通知行凭受益人提供证内所规定的单据付款,不需要提供汇票。 例8 Available by draft accompanied by the documents specified herein.上述条款需凭汇票支款,但未明确汇票的付款人。此种情况,我汇票应以开证行为付款人。 例9 90% of the total L/C amount is payable at sight and 10% will be payable when the buyers issue a no objection certificate for payment of this amount. 这是利比亚来证条款:90%即期付款赎单,其余10%货款 须待开证人签发“无异议证明书”后,开证行才予付款。 什么时候签发“无异议证明书”,条款未作明确规定,这就给出口人带来了事后一连串的催理工作。 例10 We hereby establish this Irrevocable Credit which is available against beneficiary’s drafts drawn induplicate on applicant at 30 days sight free of interest for 100% of invoice value. "Document against acceptance". 上述条款见于新加坡来证中,是真远期,见票30天付款, 不计利息,承兑交单(D/A)。这承兑交单是开证行与开证 人之间的事,与受益人无关。汇票到达开证行后经开证人承兑,银行即交付单据。至于信用证项下货款,开证行保证在30天到期时偿付与议付行。

●offer cover advice handle●Look at the following examples:● 1 Our offer remains open for 21 days.● 2 Please cover the goods against All Risks.● 3 We will send you the shipping advice soon.● 4 We handle the import and export of toys.商务英语词语不正确的一般翻译正确的商务翻译Particular average特定平均数单独海损General average一般平均数共同海损Straight B/L直达提单记名提单Through B/L通过提单联运提单Clean L/C干净信用证光票信用证Documentary L/C单据信用证跟单信用证National treatment国家待遇国民待遇Confirming Bank确认行保兑行Dispatch money派遣费速遣费Open policy开放政策预约保险单4. 语言具体明确与普通英语相比,商务英语在语言表达方面很重要的不同之处在于,商务英语要表达准确,不能言过其实,内容必须实事求是,尤其要保证数据的精确和术语的严格准确,否则就会引起纠纷。

例如,商品的某些质量和特征要用准确的数字,避免使用“长”“短”“好”这样的词语;时间要具体到年、月、日,必要时,甚至要注明小时、分钟,避免使用“昨天”“下个月”“马上”等含糊的用语。

试比较:●Thank you for your fax dispatched yesterday.●Thank you for your fax of August 15,2015.●商务英语中不会使用第一句表达方式,而是要使用第二句表达方式。

因为前者笼统含糊,后者清晰明了。

●We have arranged for the goods to be shipped inseaworthy containers.5. 新词的增多–e-business电子商务–e-cash电子现金–bubble economy泡沫经济–shopping online网上购物–holiday economy假日经济Features of Business English句式结构特点Features of sentence Patterns1. 简洁明快–多用简单句、简短并列句和简短复合句–This corporation specializes in the import and export of electronic products and wishesto enter into business relations with you.2. 句式逻辑严密,结构复杂3. 表达礼貌委婉We should appreciate it if you could send us the shipping instructions immediately.4. 大量使用社交性套语● Please accept my sincere appreciation for...●Please quote us the lowest price for…●Thank you for your letter of …5. 使用倒装句●Enclosed please find our quotation sheet.●Should you require the insurance to be coveredas per Institute Cargo Clauses, we would beglad to comply.☐How to learn Business English?☐ 1 Full understanding of Business English ☐Special features☐Purposes☐Functions2 .
