答案 Collaborative task and discussion (about 5 minutes) Interlocutor: Now this part of the test you are going to discuss together. [Interlocutor points to the card showing the task while giving the instructions below.] Interlocutor: You have 30 seconds to read the task carefully, and then 3 minutes to discuss and decide about it together. You should give reasons for your decisions and opinions. You don’t need to write anything. Is that clear? [Interlocutor places the card in front of the candidates.] Interlocutor: I’m just going to listen and then ask you to stop after 3 minutes. Please speak so that we can hear you. [Candidates have about 3 minutes to complete the task] A: Hi. Ms B, you know, everything seem to be in disorder in our company. And that obviously has a lot to do with poor time management. B: That’s the point. So time should be planned according to the importance of the tasks we need to deal with. A: So what do you think we can do so that time is managed effectively in our company? B: You mean what procedures we can adopt? A: Sure, That’s what our boss is asking us to do. Right? B: Right. I think we’ve got a lot to do. First, we should make all the staff members realize how important effective time management is to our company. A: Yes, Perhaps we can run a few training programs for them. If needed, we may invite some experts from outside to help us. B: Another thing we can do is to make all the managers, or even every staff member, come up with a job discription of their own. In this way, they can be pretty sure about what they are responsible for and what they are not. A: Good idea. So to sum up, our company should run a few training courses, and every staff member should write a job description of their own. [Materials are collected.] [The interlocutor asks one or two questions as appropriate, to extend the discussion.] What kinds of rules should top managers come up with? What’s your view, Ms B? B: Well, I think the top managers of our country should come up with a set of rules as what kind of jobs should be given priority to. In this way, we can make sure that important tasks are dealt with first.
