If you don’t have much experience of making phone calls in English, making a business call can be a worrying experience. Most business people, unless they feel very confident, prepare for an important phone call in a foreign language by making notes in advance. And during the call they make notes while they’re talking to help them to remember what was said. Although it’s quick and convenient to phone someone to give them information or to ask questions, the disadvantage is that there is nothing in writing to help you to remember what was said. It’s essential to make notes and often when an agreement is reached on the phone, one of the speakers will send a fax or e-mail to confirm the main points that were made. Because it’s so easy to be misunderstood when talking on the phone, it’s a good idea to repeat any important information (especially numbers and names) back to the other person to make sure you’ve got it right. Always make sure you know the name of the person you’re talking to. If necessary, ask them to spell it out to you, so that you can make sure you’ve got it right—-and try to use their name during the call. And make sure that they know your name too.

SMALL TALK BEFORE A MEETING

This is a situation you’ve probably experienced many times: you arrive for a meeting ten minutes early. There are several people already there. You say hello and then … What do you talk about? What do you say?

In this situation, you need to be able to make small talk. Small talk is an informal conversation.

It’s a way to avoid uncomfortable silences and build stronger relationships.

Small talk might seem to be about nothing important, but it is important in itself. Being able to make small talk will allow you to make yourself part of a group. It will set the stage for more serious types of communication.

(1) Small talk is a kind of formal dialog.

答案:错误

(2) The term “small talk” means there are only two persons in the dialog.

ACCOUNTING IS MORE THAN NUMBERS

Accounting could date back to about 7,000 years ago. People of that time relied on old accounting methods to record the growth of crops and herds. Accounting has greatly developed with the growth of joint-stock companies.

When you think of accounting, you may find pages of tables and numbers. That image doesn’t usually give you too much excitement. When you have your own business, though, those numbers come to mean the world to you because they give you the record of how much money you’ve earned or lost.

Actually, accounting is not simply about strange dollar amounts or boring numbers; they’re your sales figures, your costs, and your profits. In other words, accounting is a language of business. Once you know how to work with those numbers, how to read those numbers and how to read the story they tell, you will be able to manage your business toward greater success.

Earle Dickson worked for a company manufacturing gauze and tape called Johnson & Johnson.

One day Earle Dickson had an idea. He sat down with some tape and gauze and a pair of scissors. Then he cut the tape into strips. In the middle of each strip he stuck a little square of gauze. From then on, whenever Josephine had an accident, ready-made bandages were on hand for her to use quickly and without a lot of fuss.

At Johnson & Johnson, people heard about these new bandages which could be put on in thirty seconds. Soon the company started to try these bandages on the market.

193、阅读理解:根据文章内容进行判断,正确为“T”,错误为“F”。

Brand refers to names, logos and slogans. For example, Nike is known for its slogan “_Just do it_” and swoosh logo. A trademark shows the origin and ownership of a product or service, which is used to protect names, logos, drawings, symbols and other characters related with a business. Coke? and Coca-cola? are registered trademarks of the Coca-Cola Company.

Many companies spend a lot of money and time registering their trademarks.There are at least two good reasons for this. Firstly, if you trademark a brand, you are the only person allowed to use that Brand name, slogan etc.If others want to use that brand, they must ask your permission or pay some money. Secondly, registration also allows the owner to bring legal action against anyone who uses the trademark without authorization.

There are basic trademark symbols, e.g. “TM” for goods and “SM” for service. They tell the public that the product’s name and design are the exclusive property of the company, but a registered trademark ? provides notice that it has indeed been registered.

(1) According to the writer, it is not necessary for a company to register a trademark.

答案:错误

(2) A trademark may be regarded as a protection for a brand name.

答案:正确

(3) The trademark symbols TM and ? can be exchanged in a brand.

答案:错误

(4) Legal protection on a brand comes into force only after registration.

答案:正确

(5) A company can freely use other companies’ brands.

答案:错误
