Which of the benefits and incentives in exercise1 is each person referring to?,Speaker 1:_ Speaker 2:_ Speaker 3:_ Speaker 4:_ Speaker 5:_,company car,flexible working hours,parental leave,an impressive job title,a pension,Listening script,Speaker 1 Its great because usually it means my wife can use the one at home and we even take mine away at weekends. I work for quite a relaxed company and they dont seem to mind how I use it for leisure. Speaker 2 I thought it wouldnt change the way I worked after the first six months, but as they got older it actually became more complicated with getting them to school or if they wanted to do activities in the afternoon. But my boss has been really good about it and some days I can do a half day if I want and then I might work later on other days or I take work home, which I dont like doing, but its the only way,Speaker 4 Ive just been promoted form Assistant IT Technician to Chief Operational Network Administrator. It means I get a bit of a pay rise and new business cards with my name on. Im not sure if I get my own office though.,Speaker 3 Its actually the law now so they had to let me have it. It was only two weeks but at least I had time to help my wife out. Mind you, after all the late nights and crying I was really happy to get back to work for a while and have a rest!,Speaker 5 The problem for me is that I wont have enough to live on when Im 60 and I cant afford a private plan. So Ill probably try and keep working for a few more years, and anyway, I heard the government is planning to rise the age of retirement.,Speaker 5,施樂品牌形象 施樂公司是全球最大數(shù)字與信息技術(shù)產(chǎn)品生產(chǎn)商，是一家全球500強企業(yè)。是復(fù)印技術(shù)的發(fā)明公司，具有悠久的歷史，目前在其復(fù)印機市場占有率，特別是彩色機器的市場占有率，占據(jù)全球第一的位置；其彩色的技術(shù)方面是全球領(lǐng)袖企業(yè)；施樂意味著“更好的解決方案，更低的綜合運營成本，更出色的效果，更高的工作效率”。值得一提的是，國家的居民二代身份證也是由富士施樂的設(shè)備生產(chǎn).,世界著名的CI設(shè)計公司蘭德聯(lián)合公司，在1995年受聘于美國“施樂”公司，負(fù)責(zé)為這家在全球辦公自動化領(lǐng)域頗有建樹的公司設(shè)計全新的企業(yè)形象識別系統(tǒng)。于是，新的“施樂”logo設(shè)計一改以往冷漠、嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)?shù)乃{色調(diào)，以采用一種指定紅色來替代以前的“施樂藍”。紅色給人們的是一種朝氣蓬勃、充滿生機與活力的視覺效應(yīng)，是“施樂”企業(yè)發(fā)展的最好象征。,Xerox Corporation ( /zrks/) is an American multinational document management corporation that produced and sells a range of color and black-and-white printers, multifunction systems, photo copiers, digital production printing presses, and related consulting services and supplies. Xerox is headquartered in Norwalk, Connecticut (moved from Stamford, Connecticut in October 2007).,Xerox today manufactures and sells a wide variety of office and production equipment including LCD Monitors, photo copiers, Xerox Phaser printers, multifunction printers, large-volume digital printers as well as workflow software under the brand strategy of FreeFlow. Xerox sells both color and black and white printers under the Xerox Phaser brand, Xerox also produces fax machines, professional printers, black and white copiers, and several other products.,Xerox Corporation IndustryDocument services, Digital imaging, Computer peripherals FoundedRochester, New York, U.S. (1906)HeadquartersNorwalk, Connecticut, U.S. Key peopleUrsula Burns (Chairwoman & CEO) ProductsCopiers, displays, faxes, printers, projectors, scanners.,RevenueUS$ 21.633 billion (2010) Net incomeUS$ 1.296 billion (2010) Total assetsUS$ 30.600 billion (2010) Total equityUS$ 12.159 billion (2010) Employees136,500 (2010) WebsiteX,Task 1: Read the following article. What benefits and incentives does the article mention for employees at Xerox?,Reading Is Working for Xerox Too Good to Be True?,What a lovely place Xerox is to work! Kim Moloney, a client services executive, cant say enough nice things about her employer. Its a very special environment, she says, People describe Xerox as a family and I was amazed at the number of people who have worked here for so long. Its tempting to take Moloneys comments with a pinch of salt, especially considering that when youve been working somewhere for only two years, as she has at Xerox, everyone seems old and established. But theres truth behind her enthusiasm.,Task 2,Take Carole Palmer, the group resources director. She joined Xerox in 1978 as a temp and has been in her present role for seven years. Xerox has been good to me over the years, she says. It has supported me through qualifications and last year I took part in the vice-president incumbent programme.,Human resources is taken seriously at Xerox, Palmer says, and the company has a policy of promoting from within (which would explain Moloneys amazement at her colleagues longevity). The company takes on only fifteen to twenty graduates each year and Moloney was part of an intake who joined having already acquired a couple of years work experience.,She started as a project manager for Xerox Global Services before moving into sales. Now her responsibility is to grow and maintain customer relationships. Moloney is based at the head office in Uxbridge. Its great in terms of working environment, she says. Weve jus got a new provider in the canteen and we have brainstorming rooms and breakout areas. Much of Moloneys role is visiting clients, so she doesnt have a permanent desk at head office. Im a hot-desker, which is good because you get to sit with different people in the hot-desk areas. And youre given a place to store your things.,Head office staff numbers between 1,200 and 1,500 people, Palmer says. The company has four other main offices in the UK. The nature of the organization, which encompasses sales and marketing, global services (the biggest division), developing markets, research and development and manufacturing, means that the opportunities at the company vary from service engineers to sales roles and consultants.,Perks include a final-salary pension scheme and various discount schemes. The reward and recognition scheme is a little different, and rather nice: Each manager has a budget every year to recognize and reward staff, Palmer says. It can be in the form of a meal for two, or a bottle of wine. It can be up to 1,000. Theres the recognition, and then theres putting money behind it.,Opportunities for promotion Training and staff development A pension A reward and recognition scheme,Moloney, however, likes the non-cash rewards. Xerox takes care of all its staff but it also recognizes the people who put in the added effort, she says. It offers once-in-a-lifetime incentive trips, and recently I organized a sailing trip fro my team. The idea of working abroad with the company appeals to her, and she says that her career goal is to be part of the senior management team. Heres another employee, it would seem, who is in it for the long haul.,Back,Task 2: Choose the best answer, A, B or C for questions 1-5 about the Xerox article.,1.The journalist of this article thinks that A. staff at Xerox are not telling the truth about the company. B. Xerox offers great benefits to staff. C. people havent worked at Xerox long enough to know if its a good company. 2. Where does the company tend to find its new managers? A. From existing staff. B. On training courses. C. Only from graduates. 3. Why doesnt Kim Moloney have her own desk? A. Because she isnt important enough. B. Because there isnt space at head office. C. Because she often travels and is away on business.,Back,4. As well as recognizing its staff through promotion, Xerox A. gives cash bonuses. B. provides a number of perks. C. gives unpaid leave to take trips of a lifetime. 5. One common feature of Xerox staff is that they tend A. to work hard. B. to get promoted. C. not to change employer.,Back,常見的與take搭配的短語： 1. take after 與相像 eg. The baby took after his mother. 2. take down 記下 eg. Take down the notes while you are listening. 3. to be taken for 被誤認(rèn)為 eg. to be taken for a foreigner 4. take off 打折 eg. Shop early and well take off 20 percent. 5. take on 承擔(dān) eg. to take on new responsibilities 6. take for granted 認(rèn)為理所當(dāng)然 eg. We often take these things for granted.,0.
