Motivating staff financial benefits career development opportunitiesB. What is important when.? Satisfying customers a good after-sales team more communication with customers參

48、考答案：Sample A: Well, I'm very interested in this topic - what's important when motivating staff. Personally, I think there are three main important factors: financial benefits, career development opportunities and an easy-going boss. Firstly, the financial benefits should be the most importan

49、t factor. They may include good salary, bonus and other perks. As we know, most people work to live instead of working for fun. And also as the saying goes, money can make the mare go, so money is very important in motivating staff. Secondly, career development opportunities are quite important. Act

50、ually, there is nobody who does not want to be promoted. If staff cannot see any good career prospects, they will probably quit the job. Finally, an easy-going boss is also important. Nobody wants to work with a difficult boss. To sum up, financial benefits, career development opportunities and an e

51、asy-going boss are important in motivating staff.Sample B: Well, I'd like to talk about the important factors that contribute to customers' satisfaction. First of all, we need a group of excellent after-sales service team. It is true that it is not easy to meet the needs of every customer, b

52、ut our responsibilities involve handling customers' complaints and trying every means to solve their problems. In order to have an efficient group of after-sales service team, we must organize some staff training courses. In addition, we need to carry out surveys on customers about whether they

53、are satisfied with our products and in what aspects they are dissatisfied. Based on the result of the surveys, we can make improvement. In a word, more communication with customers and a good after-sales team can help improve customer service.3. 實用表達(dá)法（1）引出話題第二部分的考題一般都是以What is important when引出的，問的是做
