Lecture 1
How to Achieve the Transition toward Professional English?
Case-studies designed to evaluate your current English status.
I .C-E Translation:
1. 随着中国的入世，这样一些位置对专业英语能力有越来越高的要求，换言之，金融机构倾向于对有海外经历和专业英语者予以倾斜，这就解释了为何我们系的学生如此重视专业英语的学习。
(With China’s accession to WTO, such positions place an increasingly high premium on one’s English proficiency. In other words, financial institutions are inclined to give priority to people with expatriate assignment or professional English, which accounts for why students of our department attach such importance to studying professional English. )
2. 武汉大学是中国教育部直属的最著名的综合性大学之一。
（Wuhan University is one of the most prestigious comprehensive universities directly under the China’s Ministry of Education. ）
II. E-C Translation and their Implied meaning of each sentence
1. **** Under this Clause, the payment for performing this work should be due from the contractor.
2. *****---- Under this Clause, the client of the project is not bound to accept any or all bids he has received.
3. Under this contract the contractor is bound to demolish the old district before the construction of the residential quarters in question.
Bind / *****-------be binding upon sb. =sb is bound to do sth. .
Ask yourself:
1.Are these sentences close or useful to you?
2.Can you put them in a professional way? (crazy English is not accepted .)
3.If you can not do the job, what does it suggest?
Summing Up:
1.Stress is no longer laid on the discourse comprehension as we do in studying general English. Instead, We attach importance to utilization of English, including business philosophy and a substantial stock of financial professional expressions;
2. We care more about the sentence patterns and above all, the most accurate meaning of a word, an expression or a sentence. That’s why, we use WORD system in teaching instead of PPT.
3.Develop professional accuracy in both oral and written expressions;
e.g.:
Visit/trip/journey to Wuda
A to Wuhan University.

Two most sophisticated oral work as assignments:
No. 1: A Briefing to yourself;
I am Gui Guoping, a native of Hubei, I am 57 years’ old. In 1953 I was born of teachers’ parents. In 1982, I graduated from Wuhan University, majoring in the English and American languages and literatures. After graduation, (personal, family and educational backgrounds)I have worked for/ been with several employers. Currently, I am with the XXX, a state-owned enterprise(nature of the firm) engaged in manufacture of office equipment(line of business ). I am head of marketing department(position ) directly reporting to (under) CEO of our group company. I supervise a marketing staff of 11(duties and responsibilities ). I want a change in employer because, in a state-owned business one is less likely to put what he has learnt into practice and to attain his career objective owing to its stiff mechanism (reason for job-hopping and aspiration).
*****------A Customized Briefing to A Student of Finance of Wuda:
No.2: About our Wuhan University and our Dept. of Finance
I am a junior student of Finance from Economics and Management School of Wuhan University. Wuhan University is one of China’s most prestigious comprehensive universities directly under the China’s Ministry of Education. It is one of the universities with the longest history in China. It is best known for humanity and social studies and above all, multi-disciplinary advantages. This means students of Wuhan University can make full use of such advantages by taking courses from other schools and departments.. Our Department of Finance is one of the “Top Ten”in China. In addition to running programs from undergraduate up to post-doctorate, it is composed of Finance, Financial Engineering and Mathematical Finance.

Nearly all faculty members have foreign experience, so we are in a position to keep abreast of the latest financial theories and methodologies in the world. Our department attaches importance to both quantitative approach and financial English. In fact financial English is one of our competitive edges. With China’s accession to WTO and economic globalization, foreign financial institutions and professionals are pouring into China. The competition in the job market has become increasingly fierce. In financial industry, the international business places a high premium on a professional’s English. In order to enhance my comparative advantage over competitors, I have been attaching importance to studying of financial English. I hope I will be in a position to handle financial business in professional English.
