Ⅱ.About phonetics()Ⅲ.Background information(背景知識)商務英語的學習涉及得體的introduction(介紹)、greeting(問候)等基本會話，在這些基礎上，還需要進一步地學習有關marking（市場）、sales(銷售)等商務方面的知識。下面介紹一些比較基本的社交英語以及簡單的商務知識。

1.介紹客人的禮節

聚會時經常會有互未謀面的客人。開席之前主人應該逐一介紹雙方相識，然后再入座。介紹時一般先介紹女士、長者和高貴者。介紹兩個地位不同的人認識時，應該先讓地位較高的人士介紹地位較低的一方，其后再向年長的女士和年長的男士依長幼次序介紹年輕的女士和男士。

2.選用稱謂的禮節

介紹時對雙方的稱謂和姓名以及用語，都要根據場合正式程序來選用。具體場合有三種。

1）正式場合：稱謂和姓名用Dr./Professor/Mr./Mrs./Ms./Miss/+First Name 和Last Name。

e.g 1.向地位較高的已婚女士介紹男士時可說：

Mrs.Carton, may I introduce James Harding.James, this is Mrs.Carton(or Mrs.Jane Carton).卡爾頓夫人，請讓我介紹詹姆斯?哈定。詹姆斯，這位羅杰?卡爾頓夫人（或：簡?卡爾頓夫人）。

2）向年長者介紹年輕的女士時可說：

Mrs.Baker, this is Miss Patricia Haly.Patty, this is Mr.Edgar Brown.布朗先生，這位是帕特麗夏?哈利小姐。帕蒂，這位是埃德加?布朗先生。

3）向長者介紹年輕的男士時可說：

Mr.Baker, this is Robert Green.Robert, this is Mr.John Baker.貝克先生，這位是羅伯特?格林，羅伯特，這位是約翰?貝克先生。

4）向年長者介紹18歲以下的女孩時可說：

This is Linda Bell, Mr.and Mrs.Alan Ross 艾倫?羅斯先生和夫人這位是琳達?貝爾。注意：

1)向長者介紹18歲以下的女孩時，介紹一方就行了。如例4），琳達即可向羅斯夫婦問候。

2)有時向地位高、年齡大的人介紹自己的伙伴時，不用稱謂和姓。

e.g.Allow me, sir, to introduce you to my fellow travelers.先生，請容許我向你介紹我的旅伴。

1）較正式的場合：用Dr./Professor/Mr./Mrs./Miss.+姓氏。如被介紹者是青年男女，通常用First Name 和Last Name。

E.g.① Marie Green, let me introduce Professor Banks.Professor Banks, this is Marie Green.She's here to study for her doctorate in Law.瑪麗?格林，讓我向你介紹班克斯教授。班克斯教授，這位是瑪麗?格林，是來這里攻讀法律博士學位的。

②下面是較正式場合常用的介紹用語。

Rose Morison,I'd like you to meet Bruce Read.羅莎?莫里森，我想你見見布魯斯?里德。

Rose Morison, have you met Bruce Read ? 羅莎?莫里森，你見過布魯斯?里德嗎？

Rose Morison, do you know Bruce Read ? 羅莎?莫里森，你認識布魯斯?里德嗎？

2）非正式場合：用被介紹者的First Name。

e.g.①美國人在非正式場合介紹雙方時常用名字，有時介紹其父母時也只用名字。

“John, these are my parents, George and Sylvia.”“Pleased to meet you.”“約翰，這是我的父母，喬治和西爾維婭。“認識你們很高興。””

②“Dad,this is my boyfriend,Kevin.”“Hello,Kevin.Andrea's told me all about you.”“老爸，這是我的男朋友凱文。“你好，凱文。安德莉總在我面前提到”你。”

③“Hi,Jack, meet my brother Tom.”“Hi there Tom!I didn't expect to see you here.”“你好，杰克，這位是我的哥哥湯姆。“你好，湯姆！沒想到在這兒見”到你。”

4）自我介紹的用語：

①用于正式的和較正式的場合：

Let me introduce myself.My name is Frank Darney,legal advisor to Netcape Com.容許我來自我介紹，我叫弗蘭克?達尼，是網景公司的法律顧問。②用于非正式場合：

Hello,I'm Alan Simmons.I work in the Forbes Parent Company.大家好，我叫艾倫?西蒙。我在福布斯總公司工作。

3.介紹后雙方應行使的禮節

介紹后雙方要互相問候，常用How do you do?或It's nice to meet you 等。如果是兩位男士，通常握手以示相識，如是一男一女，應等女方伸出手，男方才可以伸出手相握；如若女方不伸手，男士是不應該主動伸手的。握手時用力要適中，太重了表現的過于熱情（尤其同女士握手，太用勁會使女士產生squeeze的感覺），太輕了使對方感到敷衍了事，對人不尊敬。

介紹客人時切勿漏掉任何一個人。未介紹應該介紹的人會被視為不禮貌的行為，而沒被介紹的人會被認為是不受歡迎的人。

此外，向外國朋友介紹中國同事或上級時，有兩點值得注意：

①我們國家的習慣是介紹客人時常愛用官銜、職務或職業名稱等冠于姓氏之前，但有些名稱詞在英語用法上卻不用于姓氏前，如：secretary，director，engineer，manager，master等。所以，如要介紹說“這位是北京化工廠張廠長。”要說This is Mr.Zhang,Director of Beijing Chemical Plant.。

②介紹已婚女士時，要考慮到西方人的習俗：女士婚后改用其丈夫的姓，而我國女士婚后仍保持娘家姓氏。如介紹說“這位是鄧教授的夫人。”英語若說成This is Mrs.Professor Deng.這就成了“鄧太太是教授。”了。實情如此，倒也罷了。若不是實情，改用同位語方式作說明，或用“鄧太太”，或用娘家姓——“李”，后接同位語說明身份。

e.g.This is Mrs.Deng,wife of Professor Deng.This is Ms.Li,wife of Professor Deng.總之，向外賓介紹我國人士要“入鄉隨俗”。

Part 3 Knowledge and Skills.Translation 直譯與意譯

英漢的結構有相同的一面，漢譯時可照譯，即所謂“直譯”——既忠實原文內容，又符合原文結構形式。但這兩種語言之間還有很多差別，如完全照譯，勢必出現“英化漢語”，這時就需要“意譯”，在忠實原文內容的前提下，擺脫原文結構束縛，使譯文符合漢語規范。特別需要注意的是：“直譯”不等于“死譯”，“意譯”也不等于“亂譯”。

1）直譯與死譯

原文結構與漢語結構是一致，照譯即可。但如果原文結構與漢語不一致，任然采取直譯的方法，就成“死譯”了。

e.g.In some automated plants electronic computers control the entire production line.在某些自動化工廠,電子計算機控制整個生產線.(直譯)

The earth acts like a big magnet 地球的作用就像一塊大磁鐵.(直譯)

Manganese has the same effect on the strength of steel as silicon 錳有同樣影響,在強度

上像硅.(死譯)

第2第3句譯文既不忠實原意,又不符合漢語表達方式,因此,必須運用“詞類轉換”、“成分轉換”、“詞（語）序調整”等手段使譯文通順。兩句應分別譯為“地球作用像一塊大磁鐵”、“錳像硅一樣，會影響鋼的強度”。

2）意譯與亂譯

只有在正確理解原文基礎上，運用相應翻譯方法以調整原文結構，用規范漢語加以表達，這才真正做到“意譯”。翻譯時間證明，大量英語句子漢譯都要采用“意譯法”。

如果把“意譯”理解為憑主觀臆想來理解原文，不分析原文結構，只看詞面意義，自己編造句子，勢必造成“亂譯”。

e.g.It’s easy to compress a gas，it is just a matter of reducing the space between the molecules，Like a liquid a gas has no shape，but unlike it will expand and fill any contain it is put in.氣體是很容易壓縮，這正是壓縮分子之間距離根據。氣體和液體一樣沒有形狀，但又不同于液體，氣體膨脹時會充滿任何盛放它容器。（亂譯）

例句中“亂譯”是有主觀臆想（不正確選擇詞義，任意轉換成分）造成。在這里，將matter譯成“根據”在物理學上是講不通的，因為“壓縮氣體也就是減少分子之間距離”，兩者是一回事。Matter 應作“事情”“問題”解。

將will expand任意轉換為時間狀語，不符合原文原意。Will expand and fill 應譯為“會擴張并充滿”。綜上所述，原譯文可改為“氣體很容易壓縮，那只不過是縮小分子之間距離而已。氣體和液體一樣沒有形狀，但又不同于液體，因為氣體會擴張并充滿任何盛放它的容器”。

Passage2

You“re busy filling out the application form for a position you really need;let”s assume you once actually completed a couple of years of college work or even that you completed your degree.Isn“t it tempting to lie just a little, to claim on the form that your diploma represents a Harvard degree? Or that you finished an extra couple of years back at State University?

More and more people are turning to utter deception like this to land their job or to move ahead in their careers, for personnel officers, like most Americans, value degrees from famous schools.A job applicant may have a good education anyway, but he or she assumes that chances of being hired are better with a diploma from a well-known university.Registrars at most well-known colleges say theydeal with deceitful claims like these at the rate of aboutone per week.Personnel officers do check up on degrees listed on application forms, then.If it turns out that an applicants lying, most colleges are reluctant to accuse the applicant directly.One Ivy League school calls them impostors（騙子）;another refers to them asspecial cases.One well-known West Coast school, in perhaps the most delicate phrase of all, says that these claims are made byno such people.To avoid outright（徹底的）lies, some job-seekers claim that they attended or were associated with a college or university.After carefully checking, a personnel officer may discover that attending means being dismissed after one semester.It may be that being associated with a college means that the job-seeker visited his younger brother for a football weekend.One school that keeps records of false claims says that the practice dates back at least to the turn of the century-that”s when they began keeping records, anyhow.If you don"t want to lie or even stretch the truth, there are companies that will sell you a phony（假的）diploma.One company, with offices in New York and on the West Coast, will put your name on a diploma from any number of non-existent colleges.The price begins at around twenty dollars for a diploma from Smoot State University.The prices increase rapidly for a degree from the University of Purdue.As there is no Smoot State and the real school in Indiana properly called Purdue University, the prices seem rather high for one sheet of paper.6.The main idea of this passage is that

.A）employers are checking more closely on applicants now

B）lying about college degrees has become a widespread problem

C）college degrees can now be purchased easily

D）employers are no longer interested in college degrees

7.According to the passage, special cases refer to cases where

.A）students attend a school only part-time B)students never attended a school they listed on their application

C）students purchase false degrees from commercial films

D）students attended a famous school

8.We can infer from the passage that

.A）performance is a better judge of ability that a college degree

B）experience is the best teacher

C）past work histories influence personnel officers more than degrees do

D）a degree from a famous school enables an applicant to gain advantage over others in job petition

9.This passage implies that

.A）buying a false degree is not moral

B）personnel officers only consider applicants from famousschools

C）most people lie on applications because they were dismissed from school D）society should be greatly responsible for lying on applications

10.As used in the first line of the second paragraph, the word utter means

.A）address B）thorough C）ultimate D）decisive
