    Practice 5  ● Your company has decided to invest some of this year’s exceptionally high profits in one of the following areas:  ● New company buses  ● Culture comparative Courses  ● Special bonus payments.  ● You have been asked to write a report recommending how the profits should be invested and what benefits they would bring respectively.  ● Write 200-250 words on your Answer Sheet.

    正确答案: 【参考范文】
    Introduction
    The purpose of this report is to analyze how the company should reinvest its profits this year. Options under consideration include purchasing new company buses, providing language training courses and paying special bonuses.
    Findings
    Options under consideration
    New company buses
    Despite that the motorcade of company buses are aged, they are still good enough to use. They are equipped with comfortable sofa seats, air-conditioning system and even karaoke. Therefore, their hardware is definitely not out of date. In addition, engines of these vehicles were only replaced last year, and they all came from Bolvo which run very smoothly. As a result, new company buses would be out of the question.
    Culture comparative courses
    Since the company is planning to increase its international market shares, especially in China and Japan, attending culture comparative courses would be very help for employees to deal with business partners and customers in those regions. Furthermore, courses would also increase cohesion, that is to say, staff members would get on with each other as classmates. They would certainly keep in memory this special period of happy time for many years to come. Therefore, the idea of investing in culture comparative courses is not bad.
    Special bonus payments
    As is known to all, special bonus payments would stimulate motivations. However, they would not have immediate improvement on the company’s overall performances. In addition, there’s also a potential hazard regarding the resentment of stall ineligible for the payments. If a precedent for future payments is set, think about what we shall do then to boost the morale in a rainy day. Therefore, it would be unwise to invest in bonus payments.
    Recommendations
    To conclude, investing in culture comparative courses will achieve a win-win situation for both the company and staff. It is recommended that the company arrange courses in Chinese and Japanese for employees who have contact with partners and customers in the above regions. As for other members of staff who are interested, they should also be encouraged to participate in.

    Practice 2  ● Your company has decided to protect itself safer from industrial espionage. You have been asked to put forward a proposal concerning this.  ● Write your proposal, including the following:  ● identifying the problems with security,  ● suggesting possible measures to be taken,  ● mentioning possible dissatisfactions from within with the policy,  ● recommendations for how to make the staff happy with it.  ● Write 200—250 words.

    正确答案: 【参考范文】
    Introduction
    The objective of this proposal is to make the employees pay more attention to industrial espionage and concerning it, we should take some effective measures to cope with the problems.
    Findings
    A recent investigation has shown that there is something wrong with our company’s security, which will have a very bad effect on development of the company in an all-round way. For instance, a new product programme has been on the discussion. But, some company plans a similar program earlier than us. We have to bear the unpredictable loss. Apart from that, it is very irresponsible for some employees to reveal our customers’ personal information, which defames our company’s reputation as well as despises one’s own moral quality.
    Recommendations
    Concerning the seriousness of this issue, I would propose that some useful and effective measures should be taken. First of all, only the high level personnel can access to the top confidential documents and other employees cannot look over them or even borrow them with any excuse. Secondly, each employee without his or her own ID and password can not enter the center system of the company’s computer. Thirdly, impeachment mechanism should be improved.
    Conclusion
    To some extent, these measures would naturally result in dissatisfactions from the staff who may feel restrained. At the same time, they may suspect that our company has no faith in them. As a result, I strongly propose that we should make the staff aware of the importance of anti-espionage actions and we will spare no effort to protect our company safer from industrial espionage.

    Practice 4  ● Your company is planning to launch a new mode of cellphone. You have been asked to do some research and put forward a proposal.  ● Write your proposal, including the following:  ● when and where to launch the cellphone,  ● promotion activities to go with the launch,  ● possible benefits that the launch will bring to the company,  ● possible risks involved.  ● Write 200—250 words.

    正确答案: 【参考范文】
    Introduction
    This proposal aims at recommending the time and location to launch our new mode of cellphone and suggesting ways of promotion.
    When and Where
    Time: Since students are the target customers of our new mode of cellphone, the best promotion time will be the summer holiday when new college students are leaving home and have to buy cellphones to communicate with their family.
    Place: our best choice is the Victory Shopping Mall located near the campus, as the square in front of the mall has enough space for the launch and there are a dozen colleges around the mall.
    How and What
    We strongly suggest the following promotion activities:
    Promotional flyers: We should create high-quality promotional flyers that tell customers of competitive price and the advanced quality of our product. Our key features and after sales service should also be included in it .
    Promotional video: Simple, short-length product demonstration videos are really noticeable. We can show that our cellphone can be used everywhere in the world in the video.
    Coupons: Most customers love coupons and a $20 coupon can stimulate sales volume of our new cellphone.
    Possible benefits
    These promotion approaches will help achieve success for the new product and as a result have a positive impact on the company identity.
    Possible risks
    The possible risks involved in these promotions are that in summer it rains a lot and maybe there will not be many participants on a rainy day. Therefore, we should pay attention to weather forecast and make a good preparation for a rainy day.

    正确答案: 【参考范文】
    To: Mr. Walker, Human Resources Director
    From: Zhang Gao, Translating Coordinator
    Date: May 16, 2012
    Subject: Management Skills Most Suitable for Foreign Language Translators
    The Company has planned three training courses for all foreign language translators for the next three months and I have been required to recommend one course as being the most suitable.
    The three courses from which a choice may be made are as follows:
    (i)English Language Development; (ii) Changes in Technology; (iii) Management Skills.
    All translators in the Company have college degrees in English Language and a lot of colleagues in our field have postgraduate qualifications in Translation or Linguistics. Since English Language Training Course of the Company is only to Diploma level and contains nothing new to us, it is not useful for us and is best left to other colleagues.
    Two months ago all Company’s translators finished an excellent “Changes in Technology” course, which brought us up-to-date information on use of machine translating and personal computers. Obviously, there is no need for us to attend the “Changes in Technology” course again.
    Undoubtedly the “Management Skills” course is the best choice for the Company’s translators. Recently it has been announced that next year our department will be divided into four sections, each of which will serve a specific division of a much-expanded Company. We will recruit twenty new English Language graduates as new translators, five to each section. We four existing translators will be promoted as Heads of Section.
    All four of us are shortage of management skills and, when we manage our own sections, such skills will be indispensable. As a result, I will recommend without hesitation that all translators be enrolled for the “Management Skills” training course.
