27、TH)DEC(EMBER) 三、 PART THREE 15 【听力原文】 Man: As you know, I attended the annual marketing conference in Manchester last week. As always, it was very useful. There were some first-rate seminars and presentations. I was particularly impressed by a talk on internet advertising. In fact, I plan to ask the

28、 speaker to come and do a workshop for our staff here. Her names Susan Hill; some of you may have heard of her - she writes regularly for a number of business magazines. Conferences arent just about seminars and workshops, though. In fact, Id say that for most people, and I include myself, probably

29、the most important part of any conference are the new contacts you make. One very useful person I met at the Manchester conference was a man called Harry Baxter, from a company in Glasgow. Hed already heard of our video cameras and wanted to know more about them. Anyway, hes interested in placing an

30、 order for them with us; hell be confirming that in the next couple of days. I also met two people from an American firm called Bentley High-Tech. Theyre a major supplier to stores all over the USA. Their headquarters are in New York. They seem really impressed by what were doing. In fact, one of th

31、em intends to come over to spend a few days with us in October. He might like to see something of our manufacturing process and production capacity, though I think hes mainly interested in discounts. If all goes well, this could lead to a really major contract for us. One of the other aspects of the

33、ad. He is currently working on a report about relocation and its effect on companies and employees. Tim, what kind of people are sent abroad by their companies? Man: Well, generally speaking, if youre relatively senior in a company, you have a good chance, and also if youve worked abroad before and

34、have shown youre adaptable. But my company always looks particularly for people with skills which might be needed in their work overseas, and thats how I got my chance to go. Woman: I see, but what about the general situation? Ive heard that fewer employees are sent abroad now than in the past. Why

35、is that? Man: Well, some Human Resources departments are thinking much harder about how many staff they can relocate, and companies are only taking the best candidates from the UK, while filling other positions locally. Thats because they know that relocation is expensive. They dont always want to i

36、nvest in it, which is a pity, as the experience can equip people with skills that lead to promotion. Woman: So, whats the position with British workers? Man: Well, it seems that people are happier to relocate to another area of the UK rather than go to another country. Its especially popular to go a

37、nd live outside the big cities and commute in to work - although, as far as London is concerned, in the last few years, companies already based in the countryside have found it increasingly easy to attract staff away from the capital. Woman: Mm. Now, for people considering relocation abroad, are the

38、re financial arrangements to be made before leaving? Man: Yes. You may want to check that any health insurance you have is still valid. Oh, and one very important point is to find out what will happen to payments into your pension fund while you are abroad. You need to make sure that these will cont

39、inue. Um, also, you may want to rent out your house while youre away. Its best to use a rental agency to do this, so that they can sort out any problems in your absence. Woman: Now, youve worked abroad, in Dubai. What work was your company involved in there? Man: Wed got a contract from an internati

40、onal bank there. A firm in the UK had designed an office block for them, and we went to Dubai to arrange for the purchase of the materials and to build it. I was part of the team involved in the project, in partnership with a local firm. Woman: And how did your company help you decide whether or not

41、 to go? Man: They made it very easy for me. They paid for me to go and see the place to decide if it would suit me. I then asked a colleague at the branch in Dubai to help me with my move there, and he was excellent. Sadly, though, the Arabic language lessons Id requested never happened! Woman: Oh,

42、thats a pity. And what about accommodation? Man: Well, buying a house there was going to be very expensive, so another colleague offered to help me move to an apartment owned by my company, which I was very grateful for. Finding accommodation can be difficult when you first arrive. Woman: And you st

43、ayed in Dubai for three years - quite a long time. Is that the usual length of relocation in your company? Man: Anything over a year is considered a long-term assignment, and three years is normal for international relocations because of the cost involved. My job there was to manage the progress of our project, so it was likely to be long term. But I enjoyed the experience, and learnt a lot from it, even though it was a familiar area of work to me.
