5. Language of Descriptions --- Analogy, simile and metaphors.

6. Illustrations in Descriptions

2)Descriptions are verbal representation of a product or process. They show the readers how a

product is made, how it works and why it is used. They give the consumers a good idea of its features.

Any missing or inaccurate information may lead to disastrous consequences.

stage of operation can help you avoid giving confusing or inaccurate instructions.

ask questions at each stage of operation.

2)Analyze your audience well

a)The level of knowledge and experience of readers can constrain the approach to instructions.

b)A void complicated sentences in writing instructions, especially when you judge the readers have

readers.

3)T ools or materials 4)Warnings

5)General background 6)Sequenced instructions

7)T rouble-shooting guide

12. Sequenced Instructions

1)One good way to make instructions easy to follow is to divide them into short, simple steps. These

steps should be given following a proper sequence and they should not have gaps and loops.

2)Where there are a large number of steps, divide them into sections with a subheading for each. Use

continuous Arabic numbers throughout to indicate the continuity of the steps.

它又适合什么人读呢?我们仅仅从我们的角度来进行一些阐述,供大家参考。 从英语培训的目的来看,既有考试培训,又有能力培训,商务英语界乎两者之间。 在中国的市场更加深入地融入到国际经济社会之中时,国内人才市场由于大批外资公司的登陆,对商务英语的人才的需求也愈来愈大。不过我们再次要说明商务英语并不是万能的,也不是独立存在的,许多外企需要员工具有更加专业性的英语能力--"职业英语",比如ETS的TOEIC和TOPE,也有人把TOEIC统称为商务英语,其实二者是有区别的,他们的含义与作用都不同。对于职业英语而言,学员参加某一项测试并得到一定的分数来证明其对英语语言的应用能力。学生需要和得到的是一个分数,证明其有能力承担相关的工作。而事实上,比如托福,得到高分的考生并不证明其拥有了相对应的能力。而商务英语,作为一种特定的教程,强调的不仅仅是语言的水平,而是一种实际综合素质的提高。B E C会帮助学员学会如何利用英语语言达到更高的职业目标。例如西方的管理理念、工作心理、如何与外国人打交道等等,实际的在工作中给学员以帮助。 "商务"、"英语"、若即若离 关于商务英语,不少人会有疑问,究竟是"商务中的英语"还是"商务加英语","商务"与"英语"两者内部到底是什么关系?确实

英专综合教程6册课文翻译及课后答案Answer-to-unit1

Chinese Translation of Paragraphs 1. 二战时,曼彻斯特饱受空袭之苦。成长在那里,意味着岁月艰难、钱财短缺、心情焦虑,也意味着许多家庭都是当铺的常客,包括我家。 2. 不过,我的父母最是乐观向上。他们用勤劳、自尊和满屋子的欢笑撑起了这个家。我父亲身体结实,心灵手巧,他那双手几乎无所不能,从不缺木匠和手工活儿。他甚至偶尔还会参加偏僻街道的拳击比赛,补贴家用。我母亲勤俭节约,把家收拾得干净利落。尽管条件艰苦,但她总能让自己的五个孩子吃得饱饱、穿得整整齐齐、干干净净地上学去。 3. 问题是:虽说我的衣服熨得有棱有角,皮鞋擦得铮亮铮亮的,可总有些地方不符合标准校服的要求。尽管母亲缩衣节食为我筹到了大部分装束,但我仍然没能凑齐学校指定的蓝色运动上衣和帽圈。 4. 由于战争影响,开始实施配给制度,大部分学校也放宽了对正规校服的要求,因为学校明白能有衣服穿已属不易。然而,我就读的女子学校却严格规定,每位学生必须穿正规的校服。于是那位负责每天集合的副校长就将训斥我视为她的任务来做。 5. 尽管我试图去解释我为何没能按规定着装,尽管我也正逐渐向全套校服靠近,我每天依然会被揪出队列,在台上罚站,作为对违反校服规定者的警戒。 6. 我每天站在同学面前,只能强忍泪水,不仅羞愧难耐,而且常常只有我一人挨罚。对我的惩罚还扩大到不能上体操课或者我钟爱的每周一次的交谊舞课。我多么希望在这所可怕的学校里,哪怕只有一位老师能睁开双眼看看我能够做什么,而不是不停地告诉我不能做什么啊! 7. 不过,12 岁的我在心里也毫无选择,只有眼睁睁地挨受惩罚。我明白不能让仁厚的母亲知道我所遭受的这种习惯性羞辱,这点非常重要。我也不敢冒险让她到学校替我求情,因为我知道那些心胸狭隘、不讲情面的教员们也同样会令她难堪,这意味着到时我们母女俩都要伤心、愤怒。老天!要是母亲再告诉父亲的话,他立马会大发雷霆,冲到学校来保护我。 8. 一天,我们全家在一家报纸举办的不收取费用的肖像模特摄影比赛中获了奖。我为此兴奋不已: 那些好莱坞女星魅力四射的照片更令我想入非非。我迫不及待地想把这个激动人心的消息告诉朋友们。 9. 在那之前,母亲告诉我必须穿那件绿色蕾丝镶边裙——我最好的服装——去上学,因为摄影比赛正好安排在放学之后。她丝毫没有意识到我所要面临的痛苦。 10. 那天,我没有往常穿上这件心爱衣服时的喜悦。我心情郁闷地拖着沉重的步伐来到学校,发现自己成为了蓝色海洋中的一颗绿宝石。集合的时候,我没等人下命令就慢步走上台,去承受其他女生的窃笑和副校长那尖刻的眼神。 11. 当我第无数次想到,这位老师怎么会如此麻木不仁,竟然从未透过我的着装,看看这颗顺从听话、渴望参与的女孩的心灵的时候,沮丧的泪水几欲夺眶而出。 12. 集合之后的第一节课是我钟爱的英国文学,上课的教师也是我所钟爱的。我安慰自己 说,至少我可以在后排座位上暂时沉浸在查尔斯狄更斯的《双城记》之中,以便能回过神

大学商务英语怎么学

大学商务英语怎么学 第一步:找到你每日学习效率最高的时间点。 根据第一步测算,工作日期间每天能安排出2个小时的学习时间。但是这2个小时是集中学习、还是分散学习,又是因人而异。首先,你要确定一天中你学习效率最高的是什么时候。如果是起床后精神 最振奋,还是夜猫子不到12点就亢奋不起来;其次,你要知道自己 集中注意力的时间能保持多长,是十分钟还是半小时;最后,根据你 自己的生物钟,做出安排。 第二步:找出你的薄弱项,重点突破。 每个人在英语学习,尤其是商务英语学习方面的薄弱项都不同,有人听力差、有人单词少、有人开不了口,有人写不下来,所谓的“听说读写都不行”那是与其他人比较的结果。现在是要发现自己 的薄弱项,所以就“矮子里拔长子”,先选出一个最弱的,然后逐 一突破。如果每个都想提高,每个都花相同的力气,对于繁忙的上 班族来说,只会把自己弄得筋疲力尽、坚持不下去。所以请各位还 是有的放矢吧。 PS:语言学习不是孤立的,听力提高了,不可能单词量没上去; 阅读好了,不可能写作还是原地踏步。所以,不用担心“顾此失彼”,还是要逐一突破。 第三步:制定具有可行性的计划,并公之于众。 制定计划最怕的是好高骛远,什么每天背100个单词、听10篇 听力、写2篇作文、读一小时英语……计划是很好,也有很抱负, 但可行性不够。这样的计划,只是看起来很美而已,操作起来只会 很累。只能坚持十天半个月就会放弃的计划,不如不定。另外有一点,就是把你的计划、你的目标公之于众!这点很重要,把你的计划 贴在办公室的墙上,人来人往都会看到,当大家都知道你在学习英语,在复习BEC,还有半年就要去考BEC了,你就“硬着头皮也要

III. Translate the following sentences into English 1. Negotiation plays a basic part in conclusion of a contract and has direct influence on the conclusion and implementation of a contract, and also has a great bearing on the economic interest of the parties concerned. 2. Both parties must change as required of them by situations, if either of them fails to find out which type of negotiation is necessary in a particular situation, the odds are he will fail. 3. How to mak e both “sides” meet in negotiations without causing much loss to either, which may bring both out of the win-lose mix and help accomplish their objectives, requires creativity. 4. Every party must be aware of the danger of relying mainly on the competitive approach if a long-term relationship is to be developed and maintained. 5. Establishing credibility from the outset is essential if the discussions are to progress towards agreements. 6. One of the advantages of using conditional questions is that they do not bind either side to a specific offer and do not require unilateral concessions by one party. 7. With a growing number of countries are becoming actively engaged in world trade, business executives are faced with such a demanding environment for their commercial negotiations that they need to master negotiation skills in a global setting. IV. Translate the following passages into Chinese 1.任何一位团队成员都不可能具有使公司战略获得成功所需要的所有才能。首席谈判必须选拔那些具有综合专业技能以及个人素质的人才形成一支精干的队伍。一名成员的弱点必须能被另一名成员的优点所弥补。他们的人不仅要懂专业技术知识,而且还须具有交流和应用这些知识的能力。团队的组织与玩拼图游戏类似,只有将所有的拼板与其相应的位置进行对应,游戏才能成功。 2.要想获得一个理想的协议,谈判者需要懂得谈判原则和谈判技巧。在国际商务谈判中有两条原则:谈判初期,谈判者对自己的预期目标要心中有数,不受对方任意操纵;谈判者需要提出要求,表明态度并坚持立场。 3.随着越来越多的国家积极地从事国际贸易,商务谈判环境对企业经理提出了更高的要求,所以他们需要掌握在国际环境下的谈判技巧。

Yours sincerely, Li Ming 本文通过对BEC中级考生文章的分析,给广大考生一点备考建议。 首先一点,我们必须牢记,归根结底,BEC作文考察的还是考生英语表达能力。所以学生并不需要担心自己缺乏这方面的实际经验是否会影响考场发挥。(顺便提一句,BEC高级对商务知识的要求大大提高,因此考生要在语言功底上苦下功夫。比如说,写商务报告的固定格式和用于必须牢记在心。) 与此同时,试题结合商务实战的特点,要求文章必须包含特定信息点,或者是通过提供信息源,以及考题中的标注,规定考生写作的具体范围和内容。所以审题是关键,所有已知条件都必须充分利用,换言之,如果遗漏已知条件,就会因信息表达不完整而导致失分。以下是对我的一名学员习文进行点评。 PART ONE You have been informed that next Wednesday your company's computer system will be closed down so that improvements can be made.

1 List each staff member and corresponding salary for the employee in a spreadsheet to get an idea of the total current staffing cost on a weekly, monthly and yearly basis. 2 Develop your staff budget in the same spreadsheet. After totaling up the expe nses, establish a firm ceiling for expenditures on staff. Make adjustments to the budget expenses over time to ensure compliance with that staff spending maximum. As the business grows, you can increase the limit to hire more people as needed. 3 Evaluate need in the department regarding staff periodically. Ask current workers if they need assistance with their work and monitor the work process to decide if more staff is necessary. 4 Monitor the productivity of current staff to make further decisions regarding the budget, particularly staff cuts if required. Y ou can keep tabs on the performance of workers using software and regular performance reviews (meetings to discuss each worker's progress). For instance, companies can keep track of the efficiency of data entry professionals with software that times and evaluated entries over a period of time. 5 Make additions or deletions to the current staff and corresponding budget based on your findings periodically. For instance, if you find that an employee isn't meeting productivity goals nor helping the firm operate efficiently, you might decide to eliminate that position and update the staff budget accordingly. 6 Set a date to adjust the staff budget each year after taking into account all factors (such as productivity and revenues) from the previous year. As staffing managers Gennie Justus and Joyce Siegele of Northside Hospital in Atlanta explain, budgeting changes are based on trends, historical numbers of employees and internal changes. Effective feedback is specific, not general. (Say, "The report you turned in yesterday was well-written, understandable, and made your points about the budget very effectively." Don't say, "good report.") Effective feedback always focuses on a specific behavior, not on a person or their intentions. (When you held competing conversations during the meeting, when Mary had the floor, you distracted the people in attendance.) The best feedback is sincerely and honestly provided to help. Trust me, people will know if they are receiving it for any other reason. Successful feedback describes actions or behavior that the ind ividual can do something about. Whenever possible, feedback that is requested is more powerful. Ask permission to provide feedback. Say, "I'd like to give you some feedback about the presentation, is that okay with you?" Effective feedback involves the sharing of information and observations. It does not include advice unless you have permission or advice was requested.
