Take answers afterwards from the class and build up a complete list on the board. Possible answers- coffee grown- coffee picked- coffee transported- coffee packed- coffee sold and shipped- coffee sold on to shops- coffee bought and drunk 2 Before students start exercise 2, ask them to look at the title of the article on page 107, Coffeenomics, and say which two words have been combined to make this (unreal) word. The words are coffee and economics.Students then study the four visual aids from a presentation and find the missing facts and figures in the article.Answers1 10p(pence)2 153 504 505 rent6 service charge7 coffee8 1.263 Students complete the text with sentences A-F.

Make sure at least one person in each group has a good knowledge of their country's economy. An alternative is to discuss the questions as a class and ask students who know a lot on the topic. With pre-work students, the questions make a useful research project which they could carry out online and then report back on in the next lesson.ArticlesGrammar1 This grammar section should be a review of articlesfor students but if they have difficulties they should refer to the grammar summary on page 130. When checking the answers, ask students to give their reasons.Answers1 0 (Fair-trade is the name of the organisation)2 an (singular noun)3 a (singular noun mentioned for the first time)4 the (before a superlative)5 the (there is only one)6 an (singular noun)7 the (name of country)8 a (singular noun)9 the (refers to "foundation"-there is only one)10 0 (plural noun)Photocopiable activity 11.1See page 180.Fair-tradeListening2 Students look at the products and discuss the questions as a class. Find out how well known Fair-trade is in the students' countries.3 Listening 11.1 Ask students to read the questions before they listen. They then listen and choose the best endings for the eight sentences.Answers1 C2 A3 C4 A5 B6 B7 B8 B11.1 Listening scriptI = Interviewer IB = Ian BretmanI So, Ian. I understand that the original idea for Fair-trade came in 1989. How did it happen?IB Actually, the Fair-trade Foundation itself was finally set up in 1992, but yes, you're right, the catalyst for the spread of Fair-trade was three years earlier when the international coffee agreement that controlled prices collapsed with the withdrawal of the US. At that time coffee was the world's biggest agricultural commodity. In a few months the price fell by half. It was a huge disaster for the twenty million people growing and processing coffee around the world. Many of the producing countries were dependent on coffee for over half their exports.I Can you give us some examples of how you help, exactly?IB One way is that we encourage producers to learn how to compete effectively in international markets. We help farmers coming into the system to develop the capacity to cope with fulfilling demand and we set a minimum guaranteed price for their products.I I see. But as well as helping farmers directly, you also have influence on governments, don't you? I mean, governments are talking more and more about fairer global trade...IB Yes, we're finding that the issues we've been talking about for the past ten years are moving up the agenda. For example, we're having more of a debate on how we can achieve economic growth and social justice, as both are needed. As a result, leaders of larger Fair-trade organisations have been invited to high-level international meetings and economic forums. We can use our experience to illustrate to governments how trade can be better managed.I But how do you convince people who say economic growth is the answer to everything? Don't these people argue that Fair-trade isn't good for free trade?IB Well, I worked in business for a long time and so I understand the need for a free market, but it seems unlikely to me that when it comes to social problems, like global poverty, the answer is just an economic one, because social choices have to be made, too. Our point is really about priorities. Increasing flows of trade will help wealth goes down to the people who need it most. That requires a little bit more management. Fair-trade has practical experience on the ground in how you can combine the best of both. How you can get people to operate effectively and competitively while trading in a way that producers can earn a decent living and improve their lives. In the long run, if they do improve their lives, they too will become consumers and purchasers.I So is this the message you give businesses to make them change to Fair-trade products?IB It's in the interest of any business to take the message on board, not only to improve their public image but also as a recruiting tool for the future. The younger generation is well informed and wants to be part of the solution. Companies find that having a social conscience has a positive effect on recruiting and retaining good staff. Staff get excited about persuading consumers to buy products that make a difference topeople's lives.I It sounds like that's what motivates you, too.IB For my part - yes - meeting the producers and seeing what a difference Fair-trade can make to their lives is really quite inspiring.Giving reasons and benefitsSpeaking4 This task resembles Part Three of the Speaking Test so students need to work in pairs and discuss the two items. Allow about four minutes and then ask each pair to present their ideas. As you listen, monitor and give some feedback on how to improve the discussion and types of expressions that will help.Module 11.2 Discussing trendsAlternative energy sourcesSpeaking1 Put students into groups of three of four to discuss which types of energies would be a good investment. Their responses may depend upon which part of the world they come from.Possible answersa) Wind power has already been implemented in many countries though some people say it can never provide enough energy on its own. The initial cost is also very high.b) Solar power is being widely used either on people's own houses or in the form of huge areas of land with solar panels. The cost of technology is falling for this energy so it looks like a good investment.c) Bio fuels which make use of residue from plants are already used in some cars. They look set to provide one solution to the lack of petrol fuels.d) Coal is criticized for the pollution it creates and many countries are looking at alternatives which suggests it isn't a good investment. However, in some parts of the world such as China there are huge coal reserves which are only now being mined and used in power stations. In this case coal may still be a good investment but be bad for the environment.e) Wave power has many of the same pros and cons as wind power.f) Nuclear power has attracted bad publicity in the past but more recently many governments have returned to the idea of building nuclear power stations in the next century in order to solve the potential shortage of energy. Private investment may yet provide good returns.Good greedReading2 Students complete the article as in Part Four of the Reading Test.Answers1 B2 B3 A4 C5 D6 B7 C8 D9 A 10 B 11 B 12 A 13 D 14 A 15 C3 Discuss the questions as a class.AnswerThe graph shows that while solar power costs twice as much per kilowatt-hour than traditional energy sources used on power grids at present, its costs have been falling continuously since the early nineties. The line showing the average price for power from the grid for residential energy is also climbing. If these trends continue, solar power may become very competitive, making it a good long-term investment.Describing trendsvocabulary4 Students find the trend words in the last two paragraphs of the article and complete the table. They may find it helpful to use a good dictionary to check whether the word is a verb, noun or adjective. If students know more trend words, these can be added to the table (see also the next Extension activity). Answers1 peak (n)2 rising (v)3 soar (v)4 remained stable (v)5 crash (n)6 go down (v)7 descent (n)8 declined(v)ExtensionIf students are using dictionaries, ask them to find out if the words have other forms, eg the verb increase can also be the noun increase and its adjective form is increased. You could draw this table on the board and ask students to complete it with more trend words in their different forms. Write in the first examples to help: Verb adjective nounto increase increased increaseto fluctuate fluctuating fluctuationPronunciationStudents should mark the stressed syllable in the trend words. They can use their dictionaries to check. Pay special attention to stressed syllables which move in different word forms, eg fluctuate / fluctuation.Photocopiable activity 11.2See page 181.Reasons for trendsListening1 11.2 This listening continues the work on trend language on the previous page, but here students also focus on the language for explaining reasons for trends. AnswersA no speakerB 2C 4D 3E 1F 511.2 Listening scriptS = SpeakerS1 I think wind power is probably a good long-term investment because its growth has been slow but fairly consistent over the last decade, and more and more wind farms seem to be appearing, so someone must be making money - unless it's all coming from government subsidies. So if you can spare some money for the next fifty years or so I'd say you're probably on to a good thing.S2 The whole eco-investment craze is a bit risky at this stage. It's all a bit up and down due to the fact that some governments are saying now is the time to look for alternative energies and others are still using coal and oil. It's so political that you only need a change of government and the whole thing changes again. Certainly in the short term it's going to be difficult to predict...S3 Actually, I'd say oil is still a good one - at least in the short term. It's really kept increasing very well and I don't know anyone who's lost. Another reason for putting your money in oil companies is that quite a few are also developing environmentally-friendly fuels...S4 It's funny, because everyone was trying to get out of nuclear energy for a while. We all thought it would be replaced with wind power and solar energy. Anyway, as a result of governments suddenly realizing for at least the next century we won't be able to get enough energy from natural sources, nuclear will probably have a bit of a revival. So I wouldn't move all your money out of that industry just yet...S5 The one you hear about least is wave power but there are one or two companies that are investing heavily in the technology. I suppose with all the sea it's worth looking into, but overall I wouldn't expect it to do well for the small, short-term investor. Anyone with money here already won't have seen much change in the near future, either, as it's going to be slow to develop.2 11.2 Give students time to read extracts 1-5 before playing the recordings again. Students write in the missing words that are used to explain reasons for trends.Answers1 because2 due to the fact that3 Another reason for4 as a result of5 asDiscussing trendsSpeaking3 Students create sentences in pairs to describe recent real trends. Make sure they use trend words from exercise4 on page 111, and linking expressions for explaining reasons from exercise 2 on page 112. At the end, ask different pairs to say some of their sentences. If students are from different countries it will be interesting to find out and compare the differences in trends and reasons from around the world.A proposalWriting4 Students can work alone or in pairs or small groups to read the information and then draw up a list of reasons for and against investing. Note that they can also add their own ideas, eg we know from the previous article on page 111 that solar energy is tipped to become a profitable investment.Possible answers(based on information given)Reasons for:- it has a new deal with Mainline Energy worth 190million euros- the company has over ten years' experience in a relatively new field- it hit a high earlier in the year- the recent fall is described by many analysts as a short-term problem- it has developed a new silicon-saving technologyReasons against:- its recent stock price fell by half- there is a shortage of silicon.5 Students use their list of reasons in exercise 4 to writea proposal. They will also find the list of expressions helpful. You could also refer students back to page 72 in Module 7, which presented another type of proposal.Possible answerDear Mr. Keating,In response to your enquiry about Sungreen Power, the company seems to be performing well.One thing to consider is their new sales agreement with Mainline Energy, worth 190 million euros. This should help their share price which recently halved. On the one hand this was caused by a shortage of silicon, but on the other hand Sungreen specialize in technology which requires less silicon.So despite the fall, I would still suggest you consider investing. The fact that solar power costs have continuously fallen since the early nineties and look set to equal normal energy costs in the next few year makes this a good investment opportunity.Feel free to call me to discuss any further queries you might have.Best regards!Module 11.3 Reading test: Part threeExam practiceAsk students to read the introduction to Part Three of the Reading Test.

11.1The economyEconomic issues1What does this quotation mean? Do you agree?‘The gap in our economy is between what we have and what we think we ought to have and that is a moral problem, not an economy one.’Paul Heyne, Economics lecture2Choose the right word to complete these sentences about the economy1 The cost of life/living in London is so high now that many people on low incomes/revenues find it difficult to live there.2 Insecurity in the job/work market has affected consumer confidence/trust.3 The government has cut a lot of public segment/sector jobs and contracted the work out to private /self-employed companies.4 Foreign investing/investment in our manufacturing industry has helped economic growth/growing up.5 The unemployment ratio/rate in some parts of the country is over 20% and the benefits/subsidy that the government pays to the jobless is very high.6 Abroad/Foreign imports are increasing and the country now has a big trade deficit/shortage.7 Competition and a free/open market has brought prices down and has increased people’s buying power/ability.8 The tax burden/pressure on companies is so heavy now that many of them are delocating /relocating to countries where taxes are lighter.3 Put these words that describe the economy in order from the most positive(++) to the most negative(--).Stable booming buoyant depressed healthy stagnant4 Which best describes your country’s economy at the moment? What are thereasons for its condition?5How does the welfare state work in your country?1 Are the benefits paid by the state to the unemployed, the disable, pregnant women and retired people generous or not?2 Do you think these benefits should be paid by the state or by private insurance?6Read the article about the relationship between governments and big business. Is it optimistic about this relationship? Why? / Why not?Finance Weekly, 10 SeptemberThe new philanthropists T he 19th century was the age of capitalism, the 20th century socialism. The 21st century, it seems, will be the age of charity. But, as Mrs Thatcher said, ‘The Good Samaritan had to earn his money first.’Warren Buffet, when he made a gift of $31bn to the Gates Foundation, already worth $29bn, joked that his children would have to work for their living –apart from a billion dollar handout to each.Later, when Buffett and Gates held a press conference to announce what they intended to do with their fortune, it was clear that channeling it through government was not an option. ‘Bill and Melinda will do a better job than…the Federal Treasury,’said Buffet. Instead they would ‘seek out talent to distribute their money just as they sought out talent to acquire it’.For these tycoons, who have prospered in the free market global economy, government and the public sector are monopolistic and inefficient. Governments may have built the welfare state in the 20th century, but to provide them with free cash to support these structures (schools, hospital, etc) was not on their agenda. Instead their efforts will be focused on alleviating world poverty and disease, and improving access to technology.Adam Smith’s ‘invisible hand’, the economic theory that the market will run smoothly if it is left to decide what products are sold and at what price, has been the guiding principle behind globalization. In America it has produced large fortunes for a handful of successful industrialists: men who now, it seems, are turning to philanthropy.Opponents say that the free market shows no regard for social concerns and encourages poor employment and environmental standers. Wealth, they argue, is now concentrated among a handful of global corporations whose only accountable to their shareholders. They would like to see governments put a brake on the activities of bigbusiness.But the power of governments, national and international, is dwindling. The welfare states of the 20th century, and the public sector workers who staff them, are slowly being replaced –if not by private sector principle synonymous with inefficiency and waste.At the sane time, the agents of international government- the UN, the IME, the World Bank and the EU- have subsidized too many economies. As their reputation declines, they will be replaced by the charity of the privates sector.Children of the 60s, like Bill Gates, have exploited the free market ruthlessly, but now they are preaching freedom and love are choosing to give back to society. Their hearts are in the right place. But they share one enemy- modern government in all its forms. As Buffett said, only a fool gives his money to the treasury.Will such people make better world? Who knows? But they mean to try.1Reading the article on page 107 again and choose the best answer (A, B, C or D) to each question.1Wareen Buffett’s children willA. not get a penny from their father.B. get a job with their father.C. get a billion dollars each.D. have to earn their money as he did.2Who will organise the handing out of Buffett’s fortune?A.Bill and Melinda Gates.B.Bill Gates and Warren Buffett.C.The Federal Treasury.D.People specially employed by the Gates and Buffett.3 What will the money not be spent on?A.Schools and hospital in the US.B.Helping the word’s poor people.C.Helping the world’s sick.D.Providing Internet and communications technology to more people.4 Opponents in the sixth paragraph refers to opponents ofA.Multinational companies and their shareholders.B.The economic system that has produced globalization.C.Philanthropists like Buffett.D.The smooth running of the market.5 What is happening to government, national and international, according to the author?A.It has become too powerful.B.It has too many agents.C.It has becoming corrupt.D.It is losing influence.6 What does the phrase their hearts are in the right place say about people like Gates and Buffett?A.Money is not so important to them.B.They have good intentions.C.Their actions are damaging.D.They are led by their emotions.2 Find a word or phrase in the text which is the opposite of the following.1 live off your inheritance2 struggled3 supporters4 poverty5 becoming greater6 strengthened3 Do your think that rich philanthropists can do a better job than governments in helping the needy in society?4 Which of these economic points of view do your agree with?1‘No society ever prospered by punishing the rich. They are the ones who create wealth in our communities and raise everyone’s stander of living.2 ‘Governments should not worry about rich. The rich will always finda way to look after themselves. It is the job of government to look after the poor in society.’Conditionals (Types 1 and 2)5What is the difference in meaning between these sentences?1a If they raise the rate of income tax for top earners, these people will probably leave the country.2b If raised the rate of income tax for top earners, these people would probably leave the country.2a If earn a lot of money in my career, I will probably also give a lot to charity.2b If I had as much money as Warren Buffett, I would probably also give a lot to charity.Conditionals (Types 1 and 2)Note the forms of both types of sentence.If+ present,…will + infinitive (without to)If+ past,…would+ infinitive (without to ).We use the first type of if sentence for situations which are real and possible..We use the second for situations which are either unreal or improbable.6 Decide if the forms used in these sentences are correct or not.

剑桥商务英语高级-111(总分:100.00,做题时间:90分钟)一、READING(总题数:0,分数:0.00)二、PART ONE(总题数:1,分数:8.00)AE-GAMESJohn and Stephanie both wanted a complete career change. Selling children's games over the internet seemed a foolproof idea, but their biggest challenge was to secure financial backing. First they contacted numerous venture capitalists, but from the response of the few that would even talk to them, they realised they would get nowhere until they had spelt out in detail how they intended to turn their concept into reality. So the next step was to work with a group of start-up consultants, to devise a business plan making their expected revenue streams more precise.BSUREKSue and Derek's plan was to sell clothes over the internet. After a shaky start, leading to serious cash flow problems, which meant they occasionally had little to live on, they realised they would have to advertise much more seriously: on the internet, they used online marketing tools to the full to produce increases in traffic, and combined this with intensive publicity outside the internet. Within six months they had built a large customer database, at which stage it was necessary to begin looking for capital to build the business.CWONDERWEBTwo senior advertising executives, frustrated with the pace of change in an industry they felt was failing to take advantage of new media, Sally and Sue were keen to translate their advertising and marketing skills into an online environment. To their surprise, they found that many websites seemed to have been developed without taking any account of users' needs. Sure that the opportunity was ripe for a business with a strong marketing proposition, they started offering marketing services to other small online businesses.DSUPERGIFTSMichael and Tony set up a company to sell up market gifts, such as glassware and porcelain, online. The niche market they have identified is professional and affluent, a group which their research revealed is increasingly internet literate, is looking for exceptional goods at the right price and has high service expectations. A low-level marketing campaign generated more than 2000 customers, with a high-value average order. The entire system from web order to delivery is proving to be highly successful, with all orders being fulfilled within the advertised five days without any returns or breakages.EABBIE'SThe first phases of the company's growth have been funded through a mix of personal investment, foregone salaries and bank overdraft. The next phase will be crucial. Their biggest challenge will be to distinguish themselves from a plethora of competitive sites, most of which are spending far more than they are. To stand out from the crowd, Paul and Abbie are working to target and reach their audience better, and generate higher sales, but of necessity without increasing their budget. The company's total marketing vision will be the key to success.(分数:8.00)(1).These people have not paid themselves out of their company's income so far.(分数:1.00)填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:E)解析:(2).These people had knowledge which they wanted to exploit in a different type of company.(分数:1.00)填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:C)解析:(3).These people's initial efforts to obtain start-up funding were unsuccessful.(分数:1.00)填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:A)解析:(4).These people have developed a very effective process for handling sales.(分数:1.00)填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:D)解析:(5).These people devised a mixed media approach to advertising.(分数:1.00)填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:B)解析:(6).These people felt that they could improve companies' focus on customers.(分数:1.00)填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:C)解析:(7).These people intend to make their marketing more cost-effective.(分数:1.00)填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:E)解析:(8).These people are targeting a relatively small number of discerning clients.(分数:1.00)填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:D)解析:三、PART TWO(总题数:1,分数:6.00)Shoppers wary of 'premium' goodsOne of the marketing industry's favourite terms is 'premium' - usually taken to mean 'luxury' or 'top quality'. The ideal is to create a premium car, wristwatch or perfume - something that appears to transcend the ordinary. When they succeed, marketers are able to charge high prices for the resulting product.However, manufacturers should take note of a recent survey of shoppers' attitudes to so-called premium goods. (9) In fact, the tag seems to have become devalued by overuse.Consumers of all socio-economic backgrounds are very keen to buy the best - but not all product categories lend themselves to a premium status. 'Premium' can be used in any category where image is paramount, and that includes cars, toiletries, clothes and electronics. (10) Banking and insurance are typical of this second group.More than 70 per cent of consumers interviewed in the survey said that a premium tag on everyday items such as coffee or soap is an excuse to charge extra for products that don't always have extra benefits. (11) The prevalence of such a suspicious attitude makes life hard for the marketers. While the word 'luxury' had a clear and definable meaning among respondents - most related it to cars - 'premium' was found to be harder to define. Oddly, the only category apart from cars where 'premium' was understood to mean something specific was bread. (12) Several respondents said they would never pay much for a standard sliced loaf but on special occasions would happily pay double for something that qualifies as a treat.Packaging was found to be an important factor in charging extra for premium products, with sophisticated design enabling toiletries, electronics or food items to sell for far more. Shoppersare willing to pay extra for something that has had thought put into its outward appearance. (13) Yet the knowledge has no impact on their choice.The profit margin on premium-priced toiletries and beauty items can be as much as 300--400 per cent - and in excess of 500 per cent for hi-fi and other electronic goods. (14) In a crowded marketplace such as cars or mobiles, it's far more difficult to achieve this transformation than you might think.A The term is less effective, however, in areas where style and fashion play a smaller role.B The product hidden behind this attractive exterior may be exactly the same as an item selling for half the price, and shoppers may be quite aware of this.C The results suggest that the term 'premium' means very little to consumers.D A fifth of them went further, and dismissed the very word as simply a way of loading prices.E It follows that price and utility are not the only factors in play when it comes to purchasing decisions.F With such an incentive, the challenge for marketers is to find the triggers that can turn an ordinary product into something consumers will accept as premium.G The survey found that consumers were prepared to pay top prices for speciality items, just as long as prices for everyday products remained low.H When they succeed, marketers are able to charge high prices for the resulting product.(分数:6.00)填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:C)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:A)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:D)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:G)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:B)解析:填空项1:__________________ (正确答案:F)解析:四、PART THREE(总题数:1,分数:6.00)Bruce Petter has not always been an executive. He started his career pumping petrol at a filling station, as he explains: 'After I left the army, my friend's father, who was Managing Director of a petrol company, recommended that I go into the oil industry. My great- uncle was running our own family petrol company, and I learnt the ropes at a petrol station. I subsequently married the daughter of the Marketing Director but this did not make for the happiest of scenarios. Depending on which side of the family they came from, my relatives thought I should support either my great-uncle or my farther-in-law, so I decided the time had come for me to leave the warring factions to fight it out among themselves and move on.'He became founding Director of the Petrol Retailers Association. But after a few years he decided, 'I was getting to the stage where I wanted to move on again, so when I heard about the Management Consultants Association (MCA) post, I applied.'He was aware that the selection process for the head of any trade association would, by definition, be protracted because of the difficulty of getting very busy people with mainstream business interests together. The association had 30 member companies at the time, representing a large proportion of the best-known names in the sector, and 'they all wanted to have a look at this individual who had applied to represent their interests, so I saw an awful lot of the membership'.His principal area of expertise, he feels, is in running a trade association and the briefing that he has been handed suggests that this will be of prime value. 'If you were to ask me if I was ever going to be an expert management consultant, the answer would be no. But I am, I hope, able to articulate their views, to push through policies they want to see in operation and to improve their image. I hope to make management consultancy a powerful voice in government and industry.'The President of the MCA confirms what landed Petter the job. 'We saw a lot of people, but there were three things in particular that impressed us about Brace. His experience of running a trade association was key and it seemed to us that he had a good understanding of how to relate to and inspire a membership made up of very busy partners, often in very large but also some considerably smaller firms. We are also aware that management consultancy is not always portrayed in a favourable light and he has done quite a bit of work on public image and has some very positive views in this area.'So, Mr Petter has taken over from retiring Director Brian O'Rorke, and a change of mood is now in the air. O'Rorke was at the helm for 13 years and his successor is reticent when it comes to predicting how his own approach will differ. 'Brian did a magnificent job of sustaining the Association, of holding it together through thick and thin.' I detect a 'but' in his voice. But? 'I think if you ask anybody who or what the MCA was under his direction, the temptation would be to say "Brian O'Rorke". 'Petter feels his own style will be very much determined by the objectives of the members: he sees himself as a channel for those aims. 'I don't want the MCA to be perceived as Bruce Petter's empire, but rather the members' empire,' he says. Mr Petter clearly has a difficult task ahead, but many of his staff will welcome a more open, modem style and there's every indication he will be a success.(分数:6.00)(1).What do we learn about Bruce Petter in the first paragraph?(分数:1.00)A.He likes to think of himself as a loyal person.B.He has a negative view of family-run businesses.C.His military background came in useful later in his career.D.An awkward situation influenced the development of his career. √解析:(2).When Petter applied for the post of Director of the MCA, he knew that(分数:1.00)A.a decision was likely to take a long time. √B.not everyone in the Association was interested in him.C.he would have to face intense competition.D.some members would oppose his appointment.解析:(3).What does Petter believe he is able to change?(分数:1.00)A.the views the MCA holds on industryB.the way in which the MCA decides on policyC.how the MCA is perceived by other people √D.the MCA's relations with other trade associations解析:(4).Which of the following does the MCA President mention as a reason for appointing Petter?(分数:1.00)A.his ability to motivate members of an association √B.his experience of working in different tradesC.his broad network of business contactsD.his previous work in management consultancy(5).The writer notices that, when Petter talks about his predecessor, he(分数:1.00)A.expresses some regret for how the Association dealt with him.B.thinks he had been there for too long.C.questions changes he made within the Association.D.indicates he has mixed feelings about his leadership styl √解析:(6).Petter says his aim as Director of the MCA is to(分数:1.00)A.modernise the Association.B.carry out the Association's wishes. √C.set an example of firm leadership to his staff.D.expand the membership of the Association.解析:五、PART FOUR(总题数:1,分数:10.00)Sickness at workSmall firms are counting the cost of sickness among employees.

The factory in Bristol has the most employees with a number of 600. The factory in Leeds has 350 employees and finally, London employs 150 employees. Bristol made each quarter most of the profits also if it is slowly going down during the year. The profits in Leeds remain stable except for the 3rd quarter where the profits decreased but not dramatically. The factory in London has the worse profits, but they reached a high in the 2nd quarter. Afterwards the profits remain stable. As a result we can see that more the number of employees in the factory is high, more it will have a positiv impact on the profit.Band 3This is a simplistic answer, but the range of structure and vocabulary is nevertheless adequate for the task and there are minimal errors. The target reader would be informed about the trend in profits.Sample BThis report outlines the development of profits in three plants, in London, Leeds and Bristol, in 2003 and describes the staffing situation in each plant.Bristol, the company's largest factory, employed 600 people and reached profits of £12 millionin the first quarter of 2003. The profits declined steadily, dropping to £9 million in the last quarter.The factory in Leeds had a workforce of 350 people. This made it the company's second largest plant. Profits remained almost unchanged at £8 million. In the third quarter however, they reached a low at £7.5 million. The London factory's workforce comprised 150 people. Profits did not vary much and remained just over £3 million. Nevertheless, they peaked in the second quarter with earnings exceeding the £4 million level.Band 5This is a virtually flawless answer, which fits all the descriptors for a band 5.)解析:十、PART TWO(总题数:3,分数:6.00)2.· This year, your company has used an advertising agency to promote your products or services. Your boss has asked you to write a report about the advertising campaign which the agency arranged. · Write the report for your boss:· out lining what the advertising campaign consisted of· indicating what you feel the strengths and weaknesses of the campaign were· explaining how successful you feel the advertising has been· suggesting ideas for future advertising.(分数:2.00)__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案:(Sample CIntroductionThis report sets out to illustrate the strengths and weaknesses of our advertising campaign and recommend the appropriate version for future advertising.FindingsIn order to generate the competitive advantage in today's hyper-competitive globle market, we had successfully engaged a well-known advertising agency who has delivered its job perfectly. As the arrangement of our agency, we have attened an exhibition.They have produced a series of pop advertisement show on television as well as building up a commercial web successfully. There are tremendous benefits have been generated by taking that three action.1. Through attending the well-know exhibition, not only we have increased the awareness of our customer, but also we haved demonstrated our product of new type mobile phone to their best advantages.2. We have successfully built up the image of American myth among our target group - young generation through the vivid television shows our product is already the symbol of dynamic energetic image.3. Our customers have gain a easier access to us by visiting our newly launched web-site through which they can access to our automated order system and again the date they need.On the other hand, the advertising campaign also exist some disadvantages.1. The advertisement on television has narrowed the range of our customers. Not only the robust young generation should be taken account of the advertisement producing but also the dynamic business executives should be involved in our consideration.ConclusionsThe advertising campaign has increased the customers' awareness and generated the sales, foster tremendous potential customers and enhanced our reputation effectively. Most importantly, all of these three ways of advertising have present our product effectively and buit up ourdistinguished image among customers. The weakness also exist in narrowing our target customers. RecommendationWe should renew our contract of with our advertising agency and lure them to enlarge our image among the aggressive businessman and perfect our web advertising by giving our customers more tools to make them magement their relationship with us.Band 2This is an ambitious attempt at the task, particularly in terms of vocabulary. However, it is marred by numerous errors, which obscure communication. This lack of clarity has a negative effect on the reader.Sample DBackground and purpose of the report Our company, Fish-pro Ltd, carried out an advertising campaign in summer 2004 in co- operation with advertising agency RGS Ltd. Aim of this report is to evaluate how succesfully the campaign was carried out and also to asses main points which need to be taken into account when organising summer 2005 campaign.Content of the campaignIn the campaign three different methods were used when the customers were approached. Firstly, the current customers of Fish-pro were contacted by sending them a letter including a catalogue presenting all the new products Fish-pro has available. In, addition the general public was approached by the use of two mass medias: magazines and the radio.Strengths and weaknesses of the campaignThe strength of the campaign was that by using three different methods to approach the current and prospective customers, Fish-pro was able to reach an audience of 100,000 future customers. In addition, according to the survey made withing the current customers after the campaign, Fish-pro strengthened its image as the number one store of proffessional fishing equipment. The weakness of the campaign according to the survey and according to my personal view was that the campaign was very similar to the campaigns that the competitors of Fish-pro have introduced earlier. Therefore it is not certain that Fish-pro is able to increase its market share in the highly competative fishing equipment markets.Future advertising campaignsWhen starting to prepare the summer 2005 campaign I suggest that Fish-pro would carry out a more visible and in certain ways more 'aggressive' campaign compared to the 2004 campaign.Band 4This is a very well-organised answer with fairly natural use of language and a good range of structures. However, the final content point is not well developed and there are a number of errors.)解析:3.· You have seen the following advertisement and you want to enter your organisation for the award.Most Improved Organisation AwardIf your organisation has made improvements in the last year affecting employees and customers, write and tell us about them. The most improved organisation will win a silver cup and money to help pay for a further improvement benefiting staff.· Write your letter to the competition secretary, Michael James:· introducing your organisation and saying what it does· describing improvements your organisation has made in the last year which have affected staff and customers· saying how you would spend the prize money to benefit staff.(分数:2.00)__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案:(Sample EGeneva, the 27th November 2004Dear Sir,I am writing regarding the advertisement called 'Most Improved Organisation Award.'I work in a bank in Geneva. We are specialized in private banking.Our organisation made big improvements for handicaped people last year.They rebuilt the building to order to make it accessible to wheelchairs. But they also engaged two deaf and two blind people. Being next to those people several employees asked to learn their language. The bank then organised lessons for braille and sign language.This new experience touched many clients and the building is now accessible for everybody. Furthermore, there is a new positive motivation and atmosphere inside the organisation.If the bank win the price, we will reinvest the money into advertisement for disabled people and we will create a foundation. We would like help people to communicate and to help handicaped people to find interesting jobs. It will be a hard task but a nice one.I hope that you will be touched by the effort made.If you have any requests or need any further information, please do not hesitate to call me.I look forward to hearing from you and remain,Yours faithfully,Franqoise DupontSenior Private BankerBand 3This is a safe, umambitious answer, which fulfils all the criteria for a band 3.Sample FDear Michael James:I've read the information of Most Improved Organisation Award in newspapers and feel it a good opportunity for my organisation. Well, our organisation is not for profit. The aim of my organisation is to help those animals which need help. We treat those lovely animals as our good friends because we think life is also important to those animals although they could not speak. With development of industry, the level of life of us human beings has improved a lot while that to those animals is getting worse and worse. During last year, we have saved about 1,000 kinds of animals. When finding a dying animal, we immediately send it to the animal hospital and then take good care of it. When the animal recovers, we actively get touch with those kind people who are willing to help or animal organisations. After sending those lives to related people or organisations, we leave our telephone number and keep touch with them. As far as we know, 80% of animals we saved have been leading a happy life while the others have died for age.Every member of my organisation is perfect. They are kind and warm-hearted. Through our efforts, more and more people have come to realize that animals also have the same right of living as our human beings.Comparing with those organisations for profit, I don't dare to say how much profit my organisation has reiceived. But I think profit is not the only factor in the award, isn't it?If we are honored enough to gain the award, we'll spend all the award on investment on animal hospitals and animal medical care.I believe that what we are doing is a good deed and we also believe that our organisation is the most improved one!We're waiting for your reply and please contact me on 241989 during business hours. Thank you. Yours,。

Firms can no longer safely assume that every employee walking in the door has similar beliefs or expectations. Whereas North American white males may believe in challenging authority, Asians tend to respect and defer to it. In Hispanic cultures, people often bring music, food, and family members to work, a custom that U.S. businesses have traditionally not allowed.

The next time you hand over £3 for your deluxe cappuccino, ask yourself how much the roasted beans that went into that cup really cost. For your average cup of coffee, the producer receives roughly 10p – that’s about 3.5%. This disparity is causing increasing concern among some charities who believe that the excessive profits of coffee shop chains come at the expense of vulnerable coffee producers in countries like Ethiopia, Kenya or Latin America.
