So I have always found business English very interesting.Stage TwoThe importance of having a good CVWell, in my opinion, you can never underestimate the importance of having a good CV. In themajority of cases, y our CV is the employer's first impre ssion of you, your first chance to impress your potential employer, let's say. It is the essential i llustration of your suitability for the job, showin g how your skills and experience match your employer's requirements. But more than that, it shows your ability to summarize, prioritize and prese nt information effectively, essential skills in today's job market. It also show s your linguistic and communicative abilities.Even though employers these days use a variety of selection techniques, suc h as analyzing your handwriting, a good CV is still the single most import ant part of any application.Stage ThreeTime ManagementYour company has found that ineffective time management is one of the major problem areas throughout the workforce.

Zhang: You mean poor time management has caused all these problems. W hy?Wang:When time is not well planned within a company, they usually do n ot allocate blocks of time to specified tasks. They do not have a defi nite idea of when they should complete a certain task. And …Zhang: And I think they often neglect the ordering of priorities. I mean ce rtain tasks need our prior attention. But in our company every task is treated on an equal basis, even if it is a very urgent task. Wang: That's the point. So time should be planned according to the import ance of the tasks we need to deal with.Zhang: So what do you think we can do so that time is managed effective ly here in our company?Wang: You mean what procedures we can adopt?Zhang:Sure.

If nee d, we may invite some experts from outside to help us.Zhang: Another thing we can do is to make all the managers, or even eve ry staff member, come up with a job description of their own. Inthis way, they can be pretty sure about what they are responsiblefor and what they are not.Wang:Yes, that's a good idea. And I think, the top managers o f our com pany should come up with a set of rules as to what kind of jobs should be given priority to. In this way,we can make sure that important tasks are dealt with first.Zhang:Good idea. So to sum up, our company should run a few training programs, and every staff member should write a job description oftheir own.Wang:And rules should be made as to what kind of job should be given priority to.下面整个口语考试的例子（必须看）Stage One InterlocutorS/he’ｓ just goi Good morning.
