会話
ジェフはポールの年間の仕事の評価を行っています。上記の設問で習った表現に注意しながら、以下の会話を聞いてみましょう
| Jeff: | Well, it’s time for your annual appraisal session. As you know, your next pay rise is entirely dependant on my recommendations. So, before I share them with you, I’d like to know how you think you’ve improved over the last year. |
| Paul: | To avoid the pressure that I used to put myself under before deadlines, I’ve been staying back late each evening. Consequently, I’ve also had more time to attend to my regular tasks. |
| Jeff: | Yes, I have noticed that you’ve been more diligent of late - and you’ve been arriving early, when the need be. Management views this as a sign of true commitment. |
| Paul: | Furthermore, I’ve been coordinating with the Finance department far more smoothly. This has helped to cut down on all the little mistakes that beset us last year. |
| Jeff: | That was a communications problem. Has it been solved? |
| Paul: | Well, I’ve been busy this last month writing a programme which will enable messages sent between our department and Finance to flash up immediately on the screen – appearing on top of everything else. |
| Jeff: | Sounds good to me. Well, other management and I have been keeping a close eye on you, and we’ve concluded that you are finally getting to grips with the job, and are showing real signs that you could go far with us here. |
| Paul: | Yes, I’ve been finding the work here increasingly rewarding, and the extra responsibilities you’ve been entrusting me with have encouraged me to work smarter, as well as harder. |
| Jeff: | Keep up the good work, and you’ll be looked on favourably if a more senior position becomes vacant. Management concurs that you are deserving of the highest pay rise we can award under our pay scale system – 10%. And once again, thank you for all your efforts. |
