BREAKING NEWS! - WHY IT'S IMPORTANT!

The news is something that anyone who is studying Business English should really pay attention to. 

Watch it, read it, or listen to it. It doesn't matter how you digest the news, and, in truth, you would do best to mix all three methods to improve all your skills, but what it is really great for are 2 key things - improving your vocabulary for talking about things that are current and relevant, and providing you will a great resource for things to talk about that really affect us all, from ways of doing business today right down to everyone's day to day lives.

MAKE IT REGULAR!

There are many different ways to 'consume' the news:

Newspapers (daily) / magazines (monthly) journals (possibly every quarter or even annually)

Most are also available online these days. Plus... You can watch Sky News for FREE on YouTube:

Gai comme un pingouin !
- Qui peut vivre dans un froid pareil ? Avec des morceaux de glace gros comme des montagnes ?
C'est nous, les pingouins ! Les charmants plaisantins !
En blanc et noir, nous nous élançons. Et zou ! Sur le ventre, nous glissons jusqu’à l’eau. Et plouf ! Bec en avant, nous plongeons dans les vagues.
Un jour, un goéland m’a assuré :
- Vous, les pingouins, vous ne savez pas voler dans le vent du ciel. Vos ailes sont riquiqui !
Je lui ai rétorqué :
- Nous n’avons pas besoin de voler dans le ciel, nous volons déjà dans l’eau !

JAMES:  Good morning, Professor Austin, how are you doing?
PROFESSOR AUSTIN: Good morning, James. I am doing well. And you?
JAMES: I’m great, thank you. This is my friend Emma. She 
is thinking about applying to this college. She has a 
few questions. Would you mind telling us about the 
process, please?
PROFESSOR AUSTIN: Hello, Emma! It’s a pleasure to meet you. I’m more 
than happy to speak with you. Please stop by my office 
next week.

much for helping us.

LANGUAGE NOTES
• The greetings good morning/good afternoon/good evening are used at different times 
of the day to greet people. “Good evening” is often used after 6 p.m. or generally when 
the sun has set.
• “Good night” is not a greeting: It is used when leaving a place or group of people. 
Thank you and good night!/Good night, and see you tomorrow.
• When people meet in the United States, it is customary for them to shake hands. A 
handshake should be firm and usually lasts for about two to three seconds — which 
allows enough time to say “Nice to meet you.”
• “Don’t mention it” is another way of saying “You’re welcome.” The phrase “You are 
welcome” is more formal. However, responses such as Don’t mention it./No problem./
Happy to help. are informal ways of responding to a thank you.

TRANSCRIPT:
Sunt studentă anul 4 la facultatea de medicină generală ,, Carol Davila” din București. În primii trei ani de facultate aveam două semestre și la finalul fiecărui semestru era o perioadă de 4 săptămâni pe care noi o numim sesiune. În aceste 4 săptămâni dădeam aproximativ 8 examene. Acum, fiind anul 4 avem sistem modular: adică anul universitar este împărțit în mai multe stagii, iar examenele se dau la finalul fiecărui stagiu.
Acum sunt în timpul stagiului de cardiologie: învățăm despre bolile inimii. Îmi place, dar mi se pare și un stagiu greu. Avem foarte mult de învățat, dar este interesant. Ce facem noi ca studenți la acest stagiu? Facem și interpretăm EKG-uri, stăm de vorbă cu pacienții, îi consultăm, asistăm la ecografii cardiace și discutăm cu medicul specialist și cu rezidenții săi despre diverse afecțiuni. Ieri un pacient care aștepta să fie consultat și-a pierdut cunoștința pe hol și a primit șoc electric. Nu am mai văzut până ieri cum se dă șocul electric în urgență. Mi-a plăcut.
