10、；100個場景，200篇對話，幫助你成功應對多話題、深層次的商務交流。一本商務英語書是否有用，要看它是否盡最大可能營造出真實的商務情景，是否有真實的商務語言。很多書羅列出漂亮的句子、短小的對話。讀者學著倒是輕松，但一到真實場景，還是聽不懂說不出。原因何在？內行人知道，這些書語言規(guī)整但不是圈內行話，對話太短不能應對深度交流，話題太少不能隨機應變。商務英語情景口語100主題一書，則旨在幫助學習者適應多話題、深層次的商務英語交流。首先，豐富的主題、海量的對話再現(xiàn)原生態(tài)的商務語境。翻開這本小16開400多頁的書，100個主題、200組大篇幅對話，再加上詞匯、短語，以及按初、中、高級排列的句子會讓人有密

11、不透風之感。實際上，在一個貫穿著英語語流的商務環(huán)境中，這種語言的壓力會更加強大。本書 “強迫”讀者進入原生態(tài)的商務場境，通過密集的語流刺激讓讀者掌握各種場景下的溝通方式。其二，真實的語言讓你學會圈中人的行話。對話的語言秉承真實、地道的原則，生詞、難詞很少，但加入了大量英美職場耳熟能詳，而一般讀者并不熟悉的固定表達法。其中大多數(shù)一看就會，并能迅速派上用場。比如mountain of work（一堆工作），cover a lot of points（涉及許多要點），take off like a rocket（急速上升），do ones homework（做準備），outside the scop

12、e（在范圍之外），no time to lose（抓緊時間），better safe than sorry（寧愿穩(wěn)妥免致后悔），spill the beans（泄密），have a legal arm（擁有法律武器），take the blame（承擔過失），get things on track（走向正軌），等等。其三，深入的對話讓你縱觀職場心態(tài)。借助深入細致的對話，此書得以能夠揭示英美職場人士的思維方式和情感方式。這對于學習者溝通技巧的提高，不亞于語言功夫。比如怎么應對客戶的過分要求、怎么應對過于親熱地法國式問候、怎么談論辦公室戀情、怎么評價部門之間和同事之間的競爭，等等。這本書因此超越了

13、語言的范疇，比較全面地反映了公司內外環(huán)境和辦公室政治的方方面面。其四，靈活的方式讓你自主學習。無論用于課堂教學還是自學，此書都具有相當大的伸展度和靈活性。全部對話都配有MP3。讀者可以根據(jù)自身的學習目的和喜好的學習方式，有選擇地進行口語、聽力、語音、聽寫、口筆譯、詞匯等各種練習。內容簡介本書以100個場景、200篇對話展現(xiàn)原生態(tài)的外企口語，生動描繪了各種真實場景下的溝通方式； 每個主題下包括實用表達法、詞匯表、對話三個部分。實用表達法分為初、中、高三個級別，供讀者循序漸進地學習；詞匯表部分除生詞外，還提煉出課文中的短語和固定表達法。對話包括不同場景下的二組。通過本書及附贈的MP3對話錄音，你可

14、以進行口語、聽力、語音、聽寫、口筆譯、詞匯等各種練習。無論用于課堂口語教學還是自學，本書都具有相當大的伸展度和靈活性。1 Faxes傳真Dialogue oneM: Can you have the briefs from the Anderson firms lawyer on my desk by tomorrow morning.
