12、icising staff Giving them respect Letting them know the reason(分数:30.00)_正确答案:(听力原文I choose Topic B, “What is important when changing working companies?“ As to this topic, as far as I am concerned, there are three things to consider.First, I think financial rewards are very important when you plan t
13、o move to another company. Companies which could offer competitive salary are definitely more attractive since everyone has to earn his living by working. And usually, companies with high financial rewards are usually famous and big ones.Second, we must consider the career opportunities the company
14、can provide, such as personal value system, future benefits and so on. People tend to see the on-hand rewards and neglect the future benefits. However, the latter could really be significant for those who have little working experience. For example, people working as an intern in Microsoft and other
15、 World Top 500 can only get a certain amount of salary, but after they get out of there, they may have gained an amazingly increased self-value.Third, I believe the location of the company is another concern when we change jobs, especially in big cities. Nowadays, we may live in one part of a city a
16、nd work in another part of the city far far away. This could take people too much time. Imagine if you have to spend 3 hours every day on the way, it can be really hard to balance your leisure time and work. And if you can have a job not far from home, you can have more time to learn new things, to

22、siness English.C: And what information should we offer to Spark English?A: Well, I think we should tell them the numbers of staff going to take this course, and the real English level of our staff.B: That is good, and I believe the information about their characteristics and their working hours is a

26、om my point of view, a company should provide the employees with trainings that can improve their professional skills and managerial abilities. It depends. For those courses that all staff should take, they should be compulsory, while other courses can be selective so that the staff can choose accor
27、ding to their own needs. For my part, I prefer a part-time system, because a full-time system will affect the daily routine of the staff. An outside agency may not know so clearly about the needs and characteristics of the employees, which can affect the result of the training. There are several ways to evaluate the effect of the training, holding professional exams, conducting surveys among the employees and evaluating the effect of the training in the daily work of the staff.)解析:
