世界的競爭歸根結底是人才的競爭,隨著對外貿(mào)易的高速發(fā)展,社會上急需既懂英語又懂國際商務知識的復合型、應用型高級人才。在這種大環(huán)境下,商務英語便應運而生。根據(jù)教學規(guī)律,教材建設是培養(yǎng)高級人才的基礎和首要問題,正所謂“工欲善其事,必先利其器”。但綜觀近幾年的商務英語教材,在內(nèi)容的系統(tǒng)性、完整性、新穎性、精品性等方面俱佳的教材卻很少,這在很大程度上阻礙了人才的培養(yǎng)。為此,筆者組織14位教師編寫了這本教材。這些教師不僅具有豐富的一線商務英語教學經(jīng)驗,而且大多數(shù)具有在企業(yè)工作的實踐經(jīng)驗,甚至超過半數(shù)的教師還有海外學習、工作的經(jīng)驗,有力地保證了此教材的編寫質(zhì)量。本教材分為8章,基本涵蓋了商務英語的主要領域。本教材具有以下顯著特點:(1)語言規(guī)范:所有文章全部選自英美報刊。(2)內(nèi)容全面:涵蓋了商務英語的主要領域,可謂一書在手,各領域皆有。(3)既教書又育人:所有章節(jié)都有“名人名言”、“歡樂時刻”和“樂觀向上”部分。據(jù)調(diào)查,現(xiàn)在不少大學生具有心理障礙,除了社會原因外,我們的教學也負有不可推卸的責任。通過日常的教學,循序漸進地培養(yǎng)學生的幽默感和樂觀向上的人生觀是本書的另一大特點。(4)案例式教學:每一章均有兩個經(jīng)典案例,引導學生參與。這打破了傳統(tǒng)的、學生不喜歡的“填鴨式”教學方法,順應了先進的教學理念,同時也符合世界流行的教學名言:Tell me,and l will forget;Show me,and I might remember;Involve me,and l will understand。(5)教輔材料齊全:作為一線教師,我們深知,教材與普通書籍的顯著區(qū)別就是教材要“便于教師教學”。為此,我們編寫了完整的教輔材料——全部練習答案、全書的PPT課件、5套試題。
