教材试题 Unit 1 Talking (Workbook)

Unit 1 Living well(Workbook)TALKING1 Work in groups of three and act out the following two dialogues. 1 Make up a dialogue in which Donna Sellers introduces her secretary, Paul Banning, to Joy Taylor, the president of a large Canadian company. Use expressions like: Id like to introduce you to . Id like you to meet .May I introduce ?Pleased to meet you. Its nice to meet you. Make sure you think about the body language as well as the spoken words. Obviously, this introduction will be much more formal than the one in the listening because the relationship between the three people is different. 2 Now make up a dialogue in which Liu Wei introduces her secretary Li Pei to Jiang Fei, the president of a large Chinese company. Write the dialogue in Chinese and translate it into English. Think about how an introduction in a Chinese business might be different from an introduction in a Western business. Make sure you think about the body language as well as the spoken words. 2 Discuss with others in your class the ways in which the dialogue in the listening text and the two dialogues you created in Exercise 1 are different from each other. Discuss differences in: what the characters call each other (eg first name? Family name? fullname?
