序言What kind of job do you want to get when you graduate？ If you were going on a job inter-view tomorrow, would you feel confident about your speaking and writing skills？ One thingis certain, regardless of where you live, you will need to speak and write Business Englishwith proficiency if you want to have a successful career.
People from around the world——from India to China to Germany——use English to com-municate with other people from diverse cultures. Now think of your immediate surround-ings. How many people do you know from countries other than your own？ What languagedo you speak in a formal environment？ Your answer is likely to be English, but it's not justany brand of English——it is formal English, which is also known as Business English.
For a moment, reflect on the language variety you encounter on a daily basis. If youlive on the East Coast, you can hear several different Varieties of English within a 100-mileradius. If you live in the Midwest, you use language slightly differently than people wholive in the South, East, or West. If you "hop the pond" and compare one of the many variet-ies of British English with American English, the differences are more dramatic.
Every one of us speaks a local language to some degree or another, especially whenwe are with friends and family in informal environments. In fact, the language used in textmessaging can even be considered a local language: it certainly isn't a form of Standard orBusiness English.
Even though local language is more accepted today than at any other time in our cul-tural history, the person who can shift from informal to formal language patterns at will hasthe advantage. And that's what these materials are designed to help you do. By refining youruse of language, you are improving your career opportunities for the rest of your life.
With this text, you will use your local language （or dialect） to become more proficientwith Business English. You can achieve this by comparing and contrasting the two languagesystems, "building a wall" between Business English and your local language and attainingthe best of two worlds. The key is to match the language you use with the environment youare in.
This book provides you with the tools you need for the global workplace. When youhave mastered the principles presented here, you will have a solid foundation in speakingand writing Business English to people from around the world.
文摘The limits of my language mean the limits of my world. ——Ludwig Wittgenstein, philosopher（1889-1951）To succeed in most parts of the world today, regardless of your career choice, you will need tospeak and write formal English. "English dominates international business, politics, and culturemore than any other language in human history.''~
For the sake of their future international business careers, millions of young students around theworld are learning English as their second language; in fact, the number of people who speak Englishas a second language may already exceed the number of native speakers.2 Those students are learningStandard English——-considered the "universal" way of speaking English because it is "standardized"and studied formally; it is also the root language of other varieties of English used around the globe.Business English is a form of Standard English and is the language used in formal situations in theworkplace; more specifically, Business English is the language of the boardroom.
Most English-speaking people are fluent in varieties other than formal English, even when theyare not aware of it. In fact, most are bidialectal, speaking two or more varieties of English.3 Thinkabout the way you speak when you are with family and friends. Now think about the way you speakwhen you are in a classroom. Here are a few questions to consider:
Are you more aware of your speech when you are in a formal situation？
Are you sometimes unsure if the grammar of your speech or writing is correct？
Do you speak differently in informal situations than you do in formal ones？
Most people around the world speak more than one variety, or dialect, of their native language, regardless of whether their home tongue is English or Spanish or Russian or Chinese or any other language. The use of local language （another term for variety or dialect） is prevalent throughout the world, regardless of the language being discussed.
