1. The Owner hands over the site late
(Mr. Bian, Project Manager from the Contractor, and Mr. Cheng, Chief Engineer, are talking to the Owner’s Representative, Mr. Sukhnandan, who looks very young and energetic, and the Consultant, Mr. Shaw, who seems to be quite experienced.)
…
Bian：Last week, we sent you a letter, asking you to hand over the whole site to us, including the
access road. But we haven’t received a reply yet.The Contract is quite specific about this in its special conditions: Possession of the Site shall be given to the Contractor on the date named in the Appendix 1, which is April 20,1992. Today is April 26. It’s already one week late.
Sukh：I’m sorry about this, Mr. Bian. Unfortunately we have met with some difficulty in
requisitioning the land on the left bank of the river for the site areas. You know, some of the land is privately owned and the owners won’t agree to sell the land. Nor do they want to grant us permission to use it because they are afraid that the project will disturb their peaceful life.
Shaw：Some people here are obsessed with their traditional life, They don’t want to have a change
of their life! You’ll never understand them.
Cheng：It’s so puzzling! They should know that they will get benefit from this project. At least
they could get the lighting power easily, at a much lower price.
Sukh：We’ve already promised to provide them with electric power for lighting free of charge. In
return, they let us use their land for nothing.
Bian：When do you think you can solve the problem and make the whole site and the access road
available to us? This is what we’re concerned about.
Shaw：At present, the access road has been built up to the dam site and we are beginning to build
the road to the power—house from the junction．It happens to be the rainy season and the rains have slowed down our progress, but we are making a great effort to finish it soon. Sukh：So we can hand over to you the completed access road and the area on the right bank so that
you can begin the preparation work there, You can have them from tomorrow. I’ll give you a letter of confirmation right after this meeting.Once we solve our problem with the 1andowners, which I believe we can soon, we will hand over the remaining part of the site area.
Bian： Mr. Sukhnandan, let me make it plain to you. The delay in handing over the site area has
adversely affected our construction plan. We have to request you to extend the completion time of this Project accordingly.Meanwhile, we reserve the right to be reimbursed for any costs incurred because of the delay. Fifteen engineers and technicians are already here waiting eagerly to start their jobs. A lot of preparation work needs to be done by us, especially the traffic road within the site.
Sukh：I understand your position, Mr. Bian. As for the compensation, we’ll try to settle this matter
according to the contract.
Bian：To make this project a success, we need cooperation from each other.
Sukh：I couldn’t agree more.
2. Laying out the site
(To construct the works smoothly and efficiently, the site needs to be arranged properly. Today, Mr. Bian and Mr. Cheng are talking to Mr. Sukhnandan about the plan to lay out the whole site.) Sukh：The other day, you told me that you were going to build up two camps on the site. Could
you elaborate on your plan, Mr. Bian?
Bian：According to our construction plan, our first camp, which we call“CampA”, will be located
at the junction of the two access roads leading to the dam and the power house. It will mainly be used for storage of construction materials, spare pa(本文来自：WwW.dXf5.coM 东星 资源网:短期出国英语培训)rts, etc… A parking lot and a repair shop will be set up within this area. The power bender will also be located here.
Sukh：What will be the size of this camp?
Bian：It will cover an area of about 4000 square meters.
Sukh：How much is that in acres? I am not quite familiar with the Metric System.
Bian：Sorry, we are not used to the British System．
Cheng：Just a minute.Let me work it out with my small calculator. Let’s see, …
It’s 4785 square yards. About one acre.
Sukh：That’s acceptable. This piece of land belongs to the government. We’ll get it approved soon.
What about the other camp?
Bian：The other camp, which we call“CampB”, is mainly for the accommodation of the Chinese
professionals and the offices. It’s also where we have our weekly and monthly review meetings. What do you call this kind of camp?
Shaw：Man camp, to be specific, but it belongs to construction camp in general；or you could say
it’s part of the whole construction camp.
Sukh：There’s no clear distinction between these terms, even among professionals. When will it be
located?
Bian：On the right-hand side of the access road, about half a mile from Camp A. It will occupy
approximately the same area.
Sukh：Why do you have to choose this area, Mr. Bian? It is a part of this Country’s nature preserve.
Though our government is in full support of this project, it will don’t sanction it at the price of damaging its beautiful environment. I don’t think we could get the approval from the appropriate department.
Bian：You see, this area is ideal for CampB. It’s comparatively flat and this makes it easy for us to
build the houses for bedrooms and offices. The key point is, it’s close to the job site and the source of a potable water supply. Once we are given that piece of land, we’ll be strictly confined to it and do everything we can to keep it in good order. Anyway, could you have a try with the government, please?
Sukh：OK, if you insist. But I don’t see much chance of its being approved.
Bian：Now, I would like Mr. Cheng to describe our plan to arrange the other temporary facilities
on the site．
Cheng：From our site investigations, we have found a piece of land with a gentle slope, where we
want to locate the batching plant and the crushing system because it is very close to the dam site and easy to be flattened.
Sukh：What’s the exact distance from the dam site and in which direction?
Cheng：It’s 500 meters, oh, around 1630 feet in your system, to the south of the dam site, on the
right bank of the River. If we can get the approval, it will facilitate our concrete production and transportation.
Sukh：Will you submit to us all the layouts of the temporary works together with a 1etter of
application? We’ll try to get them approved soon, if possible.
Bian：The sooner,the better.
Sukh：I will do my best, but I can’t commit myself to getting the approval. All I can promise is
that you will have a reply within a week, whether positive or negative.
Bian：That’s what the Contract says!
篇二：外教英语培训：出国留学前必须搞明白的4件事
外教英语培训：出国留学前必须搞明白的4件事
(1)留学只是为了获取一个学位吗?
范亚飞：中国的教育事实上一直都很功利。郎咸平曾说过，中国人近代以来，中国国民的特点就是浮躁的投机取巧，我觉得总结的特别好，就是这么个特点：浮躁、投机和取巧。你看我们中国学生也是一样啊，他问你要机经，他不管这个东西到底是怎么样，因为他听说这个东西是有用的，然后他就去做这件事情，包括很多人问我，英国的硕士中国承不承认?这是因为大家不懂留学是去干什么的，留学其实不是去拿一个学位，留学是去学一种思维方式，西方的教育实际上改变的是你的 way of thinking，中国的教育是说你积累了多少知识，这是两个概念。所以我才会写文章说，读书难道就是为了去死记吗?这是中国式的教育思维。
(2)国外大学以何种方式考察学生成绩?
范亚飞：我在谢菲尔德大学读的是教育学硕士，没有考试，怎么考?论文啊，我们每个学期开始的时候，我们有4个论文，第一个阶段有10个老师给我上课，每一个老师上课前有大量的pre-reading的东西，你要读他的东西，读完之后，他有一个assignment，就是所谓的作业，就好比我们托福雅思的independent writing，给你一个title，给你一个题就好了。最后这个阶段快结束的时候，他会大概留一个月的时间给你，你可以在10个老师里面选一个你感兴趣的assignment来写。你写的时候怎么写?不是让你自己乱编的，你要做reference的，要做citation，然后你去引用人家的东西，你要看journal，看书，可不可以在网上贴呢?不行，在网上弄得东西一律是invalid，无效，你的文章无效。所以在国外写文章，你不能在网上随便粘，而且他国外的大学，有一个提交系统，你的论文写好之后提交，提交完了之后呢，它有软件自动能测出你的剽窃率，如果你是在网上直接copy的，或者书上 copy的，或者是journal上copy的，直接就能显示出来，就是显示成红色，每一个学校每一个专业的要求不一样，比如说这个专业，谢菲尔德大学教育系，规定你的剽窃率不能超过4%，如果你4%跟某一本书上或者journal上的东西是一样的，你这就叫plagiarism，剽窃，这是不行的。
(3)国外大学的学习会不会压力很大?
范亚飞：其实国外留学很累的，因为你不读书你论文绝对写不出来，就是他是用一种制度逼着学生去读书，你不读，读不懂，你就写不出来这个文章，那你得分肯定很低，因为老师首先看你能不能读书。
其次，他要看你的evaluation，就是孔子说的，要“学而思”，要learn withreflection，
那我们中国的考试呢?learn without reflection，就是你不需要reflection，你只需要记就好了，那我学马克思的思想，老师会给你画重点，说这个地方会考，所以大家就开始背，国外不用背，老师从来不会让你去memorize something，因为如果你去memorize something的话，你的思维没有变化，他在教你一种思维的东西，否则，你怎么去做research。什么叫定量研究?什么叫定性研究?难道书就是要记的吗?
西方的教育和中国的教育的思维是不一样的，西方的教育是培养思维的，中国的教育更多的是考你有没有记住，记住这些知识本身，其实这个知识不用记，你见的多了自然就能把他说出来。
(4)托福雅思成绩好，是否代表学术写作水平高?
范亚飞：我觉得是这样的，托福雅思，他只是一个语言考试，他只是一个language test, they are nothing. 你到了国外会发现，国外的学术写作和托福雅思写作不沾边的，根本就不沾边。托福雅思是可以短时间内提高的，为什么?就那么三百字，对吧，四百字，你可以背模板句，也就十来句、二十句嘛，可是国外的学术写作，他是要求，第一要规范，你是用哈佛系统，还是用其他文献系统，我们中国也用，但是我们不那么严谨，在国外，直接引用、间接引用怎么弄，他们国外都有规定的，然后你真的得去读，如果你不读，你这个论文没法写。
篇三：出国英语培训机构怎样收费？
出国英语培训机构怎样收费？
没有培训机构能把出国英语培训机构的收费标准公布在网站上主要原因在于，影响费用的因素没有确定，而且相关因素不太好量化，只有通过电话或面对面咨询才能得到一个具体的收费标准。
出国英语培训机构行业和英语培训其他形式的收费标准有所区别，外教一对一的收费标准通常都是按课时收费的，不是按课程，也不是按课程周期，所以方便学生们比较。
下面简单介绍一下出国英语培训机构培训行业收费标准相关的因素，方便大家找到自己满意的学习机构。
第一，上课内容。例如：雅思，商务英语等课程，外教备课花的时间会相应的多一些，所以就算同样的外教，课程不一样，收费也有所区别。
第二，外教师资，和外教的性别，国籍，教龄，教育背景有关。每家机构都有自己的定位，这是和课程质量息息相关的，一定要注意。
第三，所报课程量的多少，同样的课程报的课程数量越多，每节课的收费会相应的低一些。需要提醒的是不要为了降低单价而多报课程，如果课程上不完的话，那样折算的单价会更贵。
第四，每节课的时长，有40分钟的，有45分钟的，有50分钟的，有60分钟包括休息10分钟的（例如，速恩英语），同学们一般比较的时候感觉差不多，不
过如果算算的话，还是差别很大的，例如，40分钟240元，和 50分钟的课300元，哪个贵？其实费用一样。
第五，上课地点及上课环境，是否提高上门教学服务，上课的环境如何。这个因素主要是上课时间成本的问题，和上课的质量到没有多大关系，学生需要根据自己的实际情况决定。
第六，每年的淡旺季会对课时费有一定的影响，通常老牌的培训机构尽量稳定价格，便于管理和相对公平。
总之价格和上课的质量往往是一种平衡，不是价格最低或最高就好，要根据自己的情况，做好这个平衡。
速恩英语300多位外教老师，均来自英国、美国和加拿大
上课时间地点灵活，关键是课时费一次一结简单明了。
