商务英语考试情景口语对话:统计分析
英语课
A: Now, where were we? Oh yes, can you give us an idea about the statistical 1 analysis?
B: Our analysis shows that we are very competitive. If you refer to the last page of the handout 2, you will see a plot of our expenses vs. our profits for the last quarter. Do you think it‘s neccesary to go over the expenses more in detail?
A: Unless anyone has specific questions, let’s move on to the next point. Motion to accept statistical analysis report.
B: I move to accept.
A: Second?
C: I second.
A: all in favour? Motion pass. Now, let‘s get done to the nitty- gritty. We have all seen the performance review reports, but I would like to discuss in detail our human resource’s agenda.
C: to get to the bottom of the issue, our problem with human resources is a lack of qualified 3 applicants 4, as well as not enough incentives 6 to current employees. I recommend management training for our executive staff.
A: I‘m sorry, I don’t think I understand. Can you please elaborate?
C: I‘ll explain again. Our human resources progam is failing for a multiple number of reasons, but I think the most important issue here is lack of emlployee incentives.
好了,我们说到哪儿了?哦,想起来了,你们对统计分析有什么看法?
分析表明我们很具有竞争力。翻到材料的最后一页,你们会看到我们上一季度的开支与盈利表。你们认为还有必要详细看一下费用开支吗?
如果没有细节问题,我们就进行下一项。请表决是否接受统计分析报告?
我提议接受该报告。
还有同意的吗?
我同意。
大家一致赞成吗?动议通过。现在,我们来看一些细节问题。我们大家都看到了业绩评议报告,但是我想让大家详细讨论一下我们人力资源部的议程安排。
从根本上讲,我们人力资源部的问题是缺少合格的求职者,对现在的员工也没有足够的激励措施。我建议对我们的主管人员进行管理培训。
对不起,我想我没有弄明白您的意思。请您再详细解释一下,可以吗?
我再说明一下。我们人力资源计划失败有很多种原因,但我认为最重要的原因就是缺乏对员工的激励措施。
