Ah… Miss Yang, I’ve gone through your resume. I’d like to ask you some questions now, if you don’t mind.W: Of course not. please go ahead.M: Well, can you tell me why you would like to work as a medical representative with us?W: I really like this kind of work, and having been a doctor for threeyears, I want to apply for this position for a change.M: Don’t you think it’s a pity for you to leave your present job?W: To some extent, it is. I have learned a lot in the hospital. But I would like to try a different kind of life. By the way, could you tell me how much the new job pays?M: Sure. There is a five-month probationary试用的 period and you can only get RMB2,000 for each month. After that, we’ll determine your salary according to your performance.W: Oh, I see.

Wait until the employer raises these subjects to discuss them.What about the paid holidays, insurance, and things like that?How much time will it take for me to be promoted here?But in which cities do you have your branches? And where is your company based?It is also unwise to ask about things you should have already known. You are only telling the interviewer that you haven't done your homework.

She is so beautiful.Avoid asking interviewer personal questions or making personal comments. Could you tell me how much the new job pays?The interviewer might infer from these questions that you are only interested in your own needs and not those of their company. Wait until the employer raises these subjects to discuss them.What about the paid holidays, insurance, and things like that?How much time will it take for me to be promoted here?But in which cities do you have your branches? And where is your company based?It is also unwise to ask about things you should have already known. You are only telling the interviewer that you haven't done your homework.Part II Language FocusName: CaiNingPersonality: serious-minded; calm; humorous; easy-goingStrengths: the ability to work with all types of peopleWeakness: perfectionist; impatientWork experience: six years’ financial industry experience with severalcompanies; two years’ experience in an investment bankQualification: graduated from Peking University in 2001 majoring inaccounting; fluent English; bookkeepingand accounting proficiency inEnglish.Reasons for leaving last job: want to find a job that is challenging.Questions about the job: Would I be able to work abroad in one of youroverseas branches?Part III Viewing and SpeakingVideo 1Reasons for joining the It is one of the leading international consultant corporationscompany which came to China after China entered WTO.Working in this company would give him the best chance to use what he haslearned at university.Relevant work experience He was involved in a factory restoration in Nanjing.

Today I’m here to talk about how to make effective business calls. Telephone communication is common nowadays, therefore, how to 1) ensure smooth business communication gets increasingly important. Now I’d like to introduce some tips on making proper business calls. First, you should know 2) the purpose of your call in advance. Make sure you have 3) all the documents you’ll need before you dial. One important thing we should not overlook is time schedule. Try to 4) schedule a specific time for calls. Before you make the call, be sure that you get rid of 5) all distractions. For example, turn off the radio, television, etc. When making the call, listen carefully and 6) confirm that you have understood each point. Don’t pretend you have understood when you haven’t. Another thing we should keep in mind is: let other people speak and try to avoid 7) interruptions. Speaking slowly and clearly is important. Try to avoid 8) strong accent. Besides, make sure 9) you sound polite and agreeable. Remember that you should not argue! Use 10) the optional choice method, such as “Which is better, Monday or Tuesday?”, “Morning or afternoon?”, “Ten or eleven a.m.”? And, of course, try to make your call brief. Avoid 11) lengthy calls. Additionally, don’t try to be funny—you may be misunderstood. The last tip you should bear in mind is to 12) smile while you are talking. Your listener can “hear” your smile.Part II Listening and SpeakingTask 1 Making a callScript:Key:F F T T F T F FTask 2 Leaving a messageKey:Message NoteTo: Louise PaulsonFrom: Paul JacksonPhone: 979-326-8965Message: Ring back to him about the order they placed lastF riday.

The fear is from competition which might put them out of business before they get the profit.When promoting a new business idea, investor’s concern should not be ignored. They might like to see right at the beginning what the profit would be before getting on to the details of how the idea is going to work.Scripts Unit 7Part II Listening and SpeakingTask 1 An introduction to Honda ASIMO robotTask 2 A videophone。

Today I’m here to talk about how to make effective business calls. Telephone communication is common nowadays, therefore, how to 1) ensure smooth business communication gets increasingly important. Now I’d like to introduce some tips on making proper business calls. First, you should know 2) the purpose of your call in advance. Make sure you have 3) all the documents you’ll need before you dial. One important thing we should not overlook is time schedule. Try to 4) schedule a specific time for calls. Before you make the call, be sure that you get rid of 5) all distractions. For example, turn off the radio, television, etc. When making the call, listen carefully and 6) confirm that you have understood each point. Don’t pretend you have understood when you haven’t. Another thing we should keep in mind is: let other people speak and try to avoid 7) interruptions. Speaking slowly and clearly is important. Try to avoid 8) strong accent. Besides, make sure 9) you sound polite and agreeable. Remember that you should not argue! Use 10) the optional choice method, such as “Which is better, Monday or Tuesday?”, “Morning or afternoon?”, “Ten or eleven a.m.”? And, of course, try to make your call brief. Avoid 11) lengthy calls. Additionally, don’t try to be funny—you may be misunderstood. The last tip you should bear in mind is to 12) smile while you are talking. Your listener can “hear” your smile.Part II Listening and SpeakingTask 1 Making a callScript:Key:F F T T F T F FTask 2 Leaving a messageKey:Message NoteTo: Louise PaulsonFrom: Paul JacksonPhone: 979-326-8965Message: Ring back to him about the order they placed lastF riday.
