问答题 1 Business is becoming more international and secretaries will increasingly need international communication skills . English is often the only means of communication, but as two seminars at the forthcoming London Secretary Show will attempt to point out, there are many advantages for British secretaries in not simply failing back on the convenience of saying it in English. In the UK, ironically, despite the fact that the country is becoming more popular as a location for international business, the reputation of the local workforce for linguistic expertise is plummeting. 2 Vicky Collins will focus on this in the first part of her seminar, and prove that communication across language and cultural barriers is easier than most British secretaries imagine. "I am not advocating instant fluency in five foreign languages for every secretary, but as any traveler will testify, a little knowledge in a foreign language is a matter of basic politeness, which gets any transaction, business or otherwise, off to a good start. It is really quite easy to learn a language superficially. Secretaries should surely be able to offer at least basic hospitality, such as asking a visitor to sit down, in their own first language." Collins has written and published a series of guides on the business use of a number of languages. Her seminar at The London Secretary Show will move on to cover global communications as a whole, especially the issue of sensibility to other cultures. 3 Collins explains: "The business cultures of some countries offer more potential pitfalls than others. The wrong message can be conveyed as easily by body language as by the spoken word." Collins warns British business people against the common British and American custom of beginning a meeting with a joke or light-hearted remark, for example. This could well create an unfavorable impression among clients used to a more formal business culture where work and play are kept apart. Teresa Watts will be conducting a seminar on coping on the telephone in French, German and Spanish. She says there is no knowing when such skills might become necessary. "Even if a secretary currently never has to deal with clients who do not speak English, it may be necessary in the future. And a secretary is often the first point of contact between the company and the outside world. 4 It is quite possible that, as such, secretaries may well find themselves liaising (保持联络) between the English-speaking world and a non-English speaking company." Watts believes the same methods can be applied to secretaries. "It is not generally assumed that secretaries will be able to pass the time of day with clients in another language, but the language being spoken should be identified, and some sign should be given to the caller that they will be passed on to someone who can deal with the call." she says. 5 Such an approach also requires no knowledge of irregular verbs or complicated tenses. Even a handful of such phrases can increase confidence and make the experience.

问答题On some occasions it is important to adhere to the conventions that characterize serious public discourse and to avoid expressions that we might use in more casual situations. Among the features of formal English are the careful explanation of background information, complexity in sentence structure, explicit transitions between thoughts, and the use of certain words that are reserved chiefly for creating a formal tone. Situations that normally require formal usage would include an article discussing a serious matter submitted to a respected journal, an official report by a group of researchers to a government body, a talk presented to a professional organization, and a letter of job application.

问答题Basically, a robot is any machine that performs work or other actions normally done by humans. Most robots are used in factories to make products such as cars and electronics. Others are used to explore underwater, in volcanoes and even on other planets. Robots consist of three main components: a brain, which is usually a computer; actuators and mechanical parts such as motors, wheels and gears; and sensors for detecting images, sound, temperature, motion and light. With these basic components, robots can interact with their environment and perform the tasks they are designed to carry out.
