(0)e the list is endless.corporate hospitality events should be an opportunity to relax with your customers and get away from business,but instead they actually expose a company to close scrutiny by its most valued audience and leave a lasting impression in theirminds .done well ,the client is left with the image of acreative ,fun and professional organisation. (1)______worse still ,you might offend:the company who arranged a james bond theme night that started with a group of international guests being greeted by bikini-clad ‘bond girls’ should have known better.the first consideration is what the aim of the event is :to launch a new product ,to develop awareness of the company’s mission, to build relationships with new clients or just to thank existing ones for their continued custom .(2)_______for the latter you won’t necessarily have to spend excessively to get it right ,but you willhave to think about what will make the event memorable. audience participation is generally a good way to achievethis ,for example giving a theme to the event ,such as a 1970s disco or a hawaiian evening.(3)________ it may also put some under pressure ,making them feel that they will have to dance like john travolta or to rely more on their wallet than their imagination to make their costume.(4)__________an alternative is simply to give them a treat by taking them to a show or sporting event and afterwards for a meal where they can relax and chat .(5)________ the advantage of these is that the clients are more likely to look forward to it and to share the good news with others in the wider world who may also have an interest in the event .(6)________in addition ,anything that goes wrong at the events is likely to reflect badly on the main organiser and not your company.a this will get the participants more involved and help to‘break the ice ’ if peopledon’t know each other well,but be careful.b an example of this would be a golf tournament or a football match.c the first two are more like presentations and will mean putting on a show to impress.d staff parties,on the other hand ,are much less stressful because the consequencesof failure are not so damaging.e a speaker may not turn up ,a piece of vital equipment may fail ,the invitation maygive the wrong date.f done badly ,the company may end up lookingcheesy ,disorganised or even cheap.g the result is good publicity and an enhanced image for the company.h the balance is a difficult one and it all depends on the skill of the organiser in theplanning and publicizing of the event ,so the guests feel at ease.vocabularygo and get1 complete the following sentences using the correct form ofeither go or get.0 there is always a danger that something will go wrong on the day.【篇二:新编剑桥商务英语(高级)第三版3.1】p class=txt>3.1 communication at workvocabularymean of communication1 what does this quotation mean to you?‘think like a wise man but communication in the language of the people.’w.b. yeats, poet (1865-1939)2 delete the verb that does not go with each type of business communication. 0anemailsend /draft /post1a phone calldo/make /receive2a press release put up /issue/put out3an advertising campaign launch/run /make4a presentation give /make/ tell5a meeting or seminarhold /attend /carry out6 a report produce/run/publish7a noticeput out/put up/ display8a memo to all concernedpublish/send out/circulate9information on the internet post/make/put3 for which of the following would you feel most confident using your english?

when do you use it? why?mobile phone email sms msnblackberry2 decide the best ways to communication the following messages.first letter has been written for you).0to answer somebody, you give a reply.1to ask for something, you make a r_____.2to help someone remember, you give them a r_____.3 to suggest or recommend something, you make a p_____.4 to say something publicly, you make an a______.5 to say sorry you make an a______.6to insist that someone does something, you make a d_____. grammargrammar tipoften verbs that express a similar notion will take the same form, eg dissuade discourage, deter are all followed by someone from doing.this can also be the case with opposite notions, eg agree and refuse +to do. i discouraged him from applying for the job.i dissuaded him from applying for the job.verb patternsin the email below, all the forms following the communication verbs (discuss, apologise etc) are underlined. some are incorrect. correct them.dear jimfor givingfor givingup your time to help us.it’s very kind of you to agree (1) working with us on this project-i know you are very busy. when we last met, we discussed (2) a special team to deal with complaints from customers. i have since had a meeting with sarah, the head of thewe need a better system for dealing with complaints.last week, a customer rang to complain (7) to wait one month for interest on it before delivering the product. the sales person who answered the call offered him a discount, without even checking the history of the order. when i checked, i discovered an email from us in forming the customer when he thought the product (10) a one-month delay in delivery. the salesman was very defensive and said that he couldn’t be criticized (11)keep the customer happy!so you see, we’ve got a lot of work to do. looking forward to hearing from you. best wisheskaren 5put the words below into their correct place in the table. urgethreaten proposeundertakepraise blamerecommenddeny convince6 complete these sentences.0they threaten to take us to court if we didn’t pay them immediately.1it’s a very sensitive issue. i suggest __________ an anonymous email.2once, in a restaurant, i complained ___________ and the manager told us to leave. 3what a waste of time! we spent three hours discussing___________.4the company offered__________, but amazingly she refused. 5i’ve promised ___________ by tomorrow morning.6 i can’t believe you had to remind him ____________. that’s his job.【篇三:新编剑桥商务英语(初级)学生用书_答案_module_1.1-5.3】ing and workshopsp6what does your job involve?

Our principal manufacturing facility is just out side Lille and products go from there to be a cental distribution point at Compiegne.Three sales agencies cover the various regions of France with international offices in Frankfurt,Milan and Madrid. The London offices is run by our UK subsidiary.3 What is the diffidence between the following words and phrases?1 a sales office and a subsidiary2 a warehouse and a plant3 the headquarters and a divisionGrowth Strategy4 Find a synonym in the box of each of the underlined words.Go public sell off set up go out of business expandTake over make redundant shut down1 We acquired Everforce Ltd in 2005.2 Our target is to grow the business by 15% each year.3 We created a subsidiary to sell after-sales service.4 The company will be listed on the Stock Exchange next year.5 They went bankrupt last year.6 We laid 300 employees off in June.7 After a lot of discussion we decided to closed the plant.8 We have divested our shares in the logistic company.5 What is the diffidence between the following expressions?1 Laying people off and firing them2 taking over a company and merging with it3 organic growth and non-organic growth6SAP and Oracle are the world’s leading companies in providing the software solutions for business. But their business strategies are very diffident.Read the text about SAP’S growth strategy. Choose the best sentences from the list (A-H) below the complete each gap (1-6). Do not use any letter more than once.SAP competes with ‘organic growth’How do you stay at the top of the heap in the business software game If you’re SAP, you do it through ‘organic growth’, not blockbuster acquisitions. That is the world from SAP CEO Henning Kagermann. (0) H The second-best strategy is acquisition: Kagermann said. ‘The best is the organic growth. We are not just doing the organic growth because we have no other choice.The comment is aimed squarely at rival Oracle Corp; which spent nearly $20 billion between 2004 and 2006 expanding its core database business into the SAP-dominated business applications market.(1) . ‘We are the market leader,’he said.’It’s on surprise that a distant number-two player wants to catch u.’SAP was set up in 1972 by five former IBM employees.(2) . Although it has a growing number of subsidiary, there are complements to its main activities, as Shai Agassi, president’s of the company’s Products and technology Group explain, at the same time having a direct dig at Oracle. The key diffidence between the two companies, he says, lies in Oracle’s tendency to ‘acquire an industry solution that is at the heart’. ‘when we do an acquisition, it’t at the edge of the solutions. (3) Oracle is buying half body parts and trying to make a body out of it.’In fact, Agassi expects SPA to grow faster than the rest of the industry this year- 15% to 17% in sales of new software licences-through internal innovation and small-scale acquisition.(4) .SAP used to concentrate on large business customers, but increasingly pursuing sales in the market, a strategy that began in 2000.(5) .The company excepts to finish development of the mySAP suite within the next four years, as well as its Enterprise Services Achitecture (ESA). ESA is basically a platform that will allow SAP to provide consistent business services around it, in much the same way as Microsoft has built applications around its successful operating systems.Among the company’s other goals is the development of hundreds of additional services for the mySAP suite, a so-called‘ecosystems’ of supportive technologies.‘Business in the future is not business in an enterprise,‘Kagermann says.’ It’s business in an ecosystem. (6) . We try to invite others with great ideas to innovate on the platform.’Exam Success A In fact, it expects sales to companies with fewer than 25,000make sure that the employees to account for nearly half SAP’s total softwarephrase you choose fits sales this year.grammatically and in B They recently announced they had purchased Virsa System,meaning, both with a privately held supplier of regulatory compliance software.the sentence before C You just can’t do everything yourself if you want to remainand the sentence after.

E Since then, it has evolved from a small, regional enterpriseinto the global market leader in ERP software, employingmore than 34,000 people.F Kagermann was unimpressed with Oracle’s appetite for big,Headline-grabbing acquisition ( PeopleSoft Siebel System).G That is different from buying half of a heart.H He made the comments while he was talking with reportersLast week during his company’s annual Developer KickoffMeeting in Burlingame, CA.7 Summarise the growth strategies of SAP and Oracle. What is the key to SAP’s longer-term strategy?Past tenses1 Study these extracts from the text about SAP on page 17.Name each underline tenses (past simple, past continuous, past perfect, present perfect or used to )Say what you know about each tense’s use and why you think it is used here.1 He made the comments while he was talking with reporters last week.2 SAP was set up in 1972 by fine former IBM employees.3 Since then, it has evolved from a small, regional enterprise into the global market leader.4 They recently announced they had purchased Virsa System.5 SAP used to concentrate on large business customers,but is increasingly pursuing sales in the midmarket.6 it’s strategy that began in 2000.2 You receive this internal email. Follow the instruction it.Hi DeniseBelow is the short company history I’ve written for the ‘About us’entry on the English page of the new website. I think it’s generally OK but I’m so unconfident about my use of tenses in English that I’ve just left the verbs in the infinitive!

Over the past few weeks, our independent directors met with individual stockholders to get their views. We were told during these conversations that they believe Oracle's $24 wasn't adequate and did not reflect peopleSoft's real value. It become clear to us that the vast majority of our stockholders would accept $26.50 and Oracle was willing to pay for it.You should know, and I hope you would expect, that I am deeply saddened by this outcome. We have come so far under such trying circumstances over the past eighteen months, and especially the past two and a hall' months. PeopleSoft had gained significant momentum in all areas of our company, including with customers, prospects, and in the financial community.Over the next few weeks, we will be working with Oracle to ensure that you get answers to as many questions as possible that you have. I believe some of you will find interesting opportunities at Oracle, others will take your talents and work elsewhere the area that you live, while another group may have difficulties finding rewarding job experiences. It is to this last group that I offer my sincerest apologies for not figuring out a different conclusion to our 18-month saga.I know it is little comfort, but I am extraordinarily proud of what we have accomplished over the past 17一plus years, and longer in the case of JD Edwards.And I am even prouder of you for your perseverance and teamwork over the past eighteen months.I make a final request.And that is to continue our work with our heads held high.Whether it's serving customers, building products or working on internal operations, 1'eopleSoft and the people at peopleSoft have built their reputation as a company with class.Sincerely,DaveThe peoplesoft takeover1 2.1 Listen to two accounts of the takeover by a commentator and an industry analyst, both close to the takeover.

Deal and Kennedy recognised this when they proposed four different types oforganisational culture: Work-hard, play一hard culture tends to apply to companieslike software developers or (1) which need to react quickly to changing circumstances and fo work of a high tempo.

I: So how long have you been doing this kind of work?
M: For about five years. I've been with the same company since I left school but with the Internet and technology it's easy now to be at home.
M:Hello,Richard.Pleased to meet you too.
W:Oh,do you two know each other already?
M:Well, we've spoken on the phone a few times.

How is working life changing in your country?
Sorry, can you repeat the question, please?
Yes, how is working life changing in your country?
I think that more and more people are moving to the cities. Or they are community in everyday. In my opinion, the biggest change has coming from technology. But then that's probably true everywhere, not just in my country.
I: So your employer doesn't mind.
M: No. It means the company saves money on office space and as long as I get the work done, they're happy.Sometimes I still go into work to meet clients and so on. For example, I'M going in nearly every day this week because we have visitors from another company and I can't really invite them overto my house. Besides, it's nice to go in every so often. I like to see people and catch up on the gossip and the news with my colleagues. I miss that side of going into work every day.
A:Is this your first time at one of these events?
B:Yes,it is. And you?
A:No. I've been coming for years.The company pays and if the location is good then I come.I remember the best year we had was in Monaco...
B:Yes.Is that something you might be interested in...

Examed butterlight.
And where do you live exactly?
I’m from a small town in North Switzerland. But at the moment I am studying for a business degree. So I live in .

B:Yes,please,and a suger...thanks.
A:So have you enjoyed this moring?
B:Yes,it was very interesting. The first speaker was particularly good.
I: Was that why you gave up your office job?
M: Yes, I wanted to spend more time with the children. It gives me more flexibility. Sometimes I need to work in the evening but usually it isn't a problem.

1.1WORKING FROM HOME
I: Ok, Michela. You work from home now. Can you tell me about a typical day?
M: Sure, I always get up aroud 7 and the first thing i do is get the kids ready for school.I take them at eight thirty and then i always start work at 9.
I: Do you ever have a day where you decide to have the morning off and start work at nine.
M: No,you can't do that. It's important with home-working off and have a timetable and stick to it. If you end up watching TV or doing the cleaning then it isn't for you. SO I have lunch at 12 and finish work at 2:30 to get the children.
