書摘
"I'm a secretary at a large business. I deal with people and in-coming mail. Dealing with people is one of the most important parts of my job. I find it very enjoyable. I also input on the computer, send telexes and faxes.
I meet people from all over the country, all over the world, and all walks of life, which makes it the most interesting part of my job.They can be very nice. I think the nice ones outnumber the irritating ones. It's a people-oriented job. It's communication, whether it's in person or on the telephone and that can be fun. Sometimes you have problems getting through, sometimes you get a wrong number, but it's all part of the job. You don't often get annoying people face to face.You get more of them on the phone, because people feel they can say things over the phone that they perhaps wouldn't say to your face. So I don't find people too frustrating in person.
As a secretary you must always be professional-looking, your clothes should be immaculate. It's better to wear skirts than trousers.Your attire should be fresh and clean. It's best to wear simple jewelry-small earrings, a matching necklace and rings. Hands should be well-groomed and you can wear white or soft coloured naiI-vamish.Your shoes should be well-polished, not worn or dirty. Your hair should be clean and neat. Heavy make-up is not recommended. Yor should always look fresh, and use just a little perfume."

前言
中國加入WTO之後,中外交流、合作和貿易的機會日益增多。涉外工作人員對英語語言知識的需求也更加迫切。引進版《涉外秘書英語》即是專為非英語國家英語學習者設計、編寫的英語讀本,它實用性強,內容有針對性。本書的讀者對象是具有初級水平的英語學習者和文秘工作者。
在編譯過程中,為了體現原書的編寫風格,基本保留了原書的的總體內容和編寫體例,只是根據國內讀者的閱讀習慣和學習特點。對書中部分不符合中國國情的內容作了適當的增刪和修改,對課文中的重點內容、文中標題和練習的標題進行了翻譯,並增加生詞注釋。
全書共分10個單元,每一個單元包括重點提示、對話、生詞表和練習,其中真實情境的對話和針對對話內容設定的豐富多樣的練習構成單元的主體。各單元內容既自成一體,又互相聯繫。
書後的附錄部分有兩項內容:第一項是與最後一個單元內容結合十分緊密的信函實例,第二項是縮略語。
本書有兩大特色——
特色之一:語言知識和職業內容緊密結合。全書圍繞秘書工作本身進行設計,通過詳細、具體的內容介紹、真實情景下的對話設計和形式多樣的練習,一方面使讀者對秘書的基本素質、秘書工作等方方面面的要求有切實的了解,另一方面也學到得體的英語知識。
特色之二:課文中每一個單元都配有豐富多樣的練習,能幫助讀者進一步掌握和鞏固前面學到的知識,並激發學生與他人共同分享各自的看法和觀點。因此,本書既適用於老師組織課堂教學,也知於自學者使用。
