第一篇 (Time: 7m 21s+30m)
Subject: introduction of tourism’s development & analysis of impacts of COVID-19 on tourism
Sub-points:
P 1-6 Introduction of tourism’s development
- The history/development of tourism (reflected by luggage): 15c start-->18c aristocrats’ grand tour-->20c few nights
- The trend of tourism: cost↓ distance↑the increasing ease of travel expanded tourism, business travel, interpersonal relationship development
- In the past, travel traffic was both expensive and time-consuming (the author gave some examples).
Nowadays, travel traffic is booming rapidly (also gave examples), and most of the international travel is by plane > cars (Europe)>sea>train
- The significant economic status of tourism: create jobs, contribute to global exports, and so on
P 7-8 The impact of COVID-19 on tourism
- Negative: international arrivals↓, less spending↓, recovery is difficult
- Positive: curtail pollution, protect destinations, promote a healthier development way of tourism
Vocabulary:
wheelie-bag 轮式包
till 收银机,钱柜
blight v.破坏
bigotry 固执
wherewithal 所需物资 (尤指资金)
Good Expression Collection:
International travellers have filled tills for hotels.【till原来还有收银机,钱柜的意思!】好的 知道了 以后如果想表达“赚得盆满钵满”,除了塞满荷包之外 还可以说塞满收银机^ ^
马克吐温的这句话也很喜欢:“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.”
第二篇(Time: 4mins+45 mins)
Subject: 一项经管学的研究及其带来的启示。研究内容:人际交往技能最强的manager(successful)≠最有成就的manager(effective)。
Sub-points:
P1. Finding
- Social and political skills have been increasingly important in today's business world.
- Comparison between successful managers & effective managers
- Networking skill is in suc mag but in effe managers
P2.
- These findings belie the traditional wisdom.
- The finding believe that managers who perform best in communication, traditional mgt, and HRM can be promoted to the top-level (instead of managers who are most accomplishing).
- The finding shed light on the organizational mgt: successful managers and effective managers should improve themselves by studying each other's fileds.
Good Expression Collection/ Complex Sentence Analysis:
The study found out that successful managers, those who get promoted relatively quickly vis-a-vis effective managers, perform day-to-day activities that are more or less dissimilar to the ones conducted by effective managers of those who have satisfied, committed subordinates, in addition to high performing units.
研究发现:successful manager比effective manager晋升快,这两种manager的daily work稍有不同,Effective manager通常都有satisfied and committed subordinates和高产出工作。
(这句话难就难在(我可能理解错了555)一层套一层 贼多的修饰:俩those who, activities that are, 让人有点晕, 我想了好久第二个of those who的antecedent是谁 晕了)
Indeed, the findings of the study do not negate the reality that there are managers who strike a balance between the activities performed by both types of managers and hence are successful and effective at the same time, but the meager percentage of such managers formed of the study's sample, barely ten percent, affirms the general divide between successful and effective managers.
Findings并不否认有些贼牛的managers可以在successful and effective之间达到平衡。但由于牛牛很少(只有10%),所以我们还是可以generally把manager分成successful and effective managers两类。
In effect, the study's implications affirm the cynical, yet what now seems real, view that people who are not necessarily the most accomplishing in terms of performing well in the other three key activity areas, namely communication, traditional mgt, and HRM, are being promoted to the top level.
句子核心想表达的是:这项study证实了【在这三项技能(communication, traditional mgt, and HRM)上表现最出色的≠最accomplishing的。而在这三项技能表现最出色的,是能被提升到最高级别的】 (俺琢磨了半天being promoted to the top level到底是在说谁??现在还是没搞懂,蹲蹲大佬的笔记分析)
Vocabulary:
vis-a-vis与…相较
politicking 政治活动(尤指拉选票)
plethora 过多过剩
affirm 公开证实
belie 掩饰,与…不符
cynical 冷嘲热讽的
in effect实际上
可能的出题点(cr: Judy,这个部分是被她的笔记启发哒 俺好喜欢看Judy的笔记嘎嘎嘎 好有逻辑^ ^):
- 过去传统观念认为哪种人最有可能被promote?(第二段第一句)
- 这个study imply了什么/有什么practical meaning? (最后一句)
- 以下关于successful managers/ effective managers的说法,哪一项是对的?(第一段中间,successful manager比effective manager晋升快)
