МЕТОДИЧЕСКИЕ УКАЗАНИЯ ПО ВЫПОЛНЕНИЮ

КОНТРОЛЬНЫХ РАБОТ

Количество контрольных заданий, выполняемых студентами на каждом курсе, устанавливается учебным планом института. Точный график выполнения контрольных работ определяют соответствующие деканаты.

Каждое контрольное задание предлагается в нескольких вариантах.

Вариант контрольной работы для каждого студента определяется ведущим преподавателем.

Прежде чем приступить к выполнению контрольной работы, внимательно изучите указания по её выполнению и оформлению.

Внимание: неправильно оформленные работы не рецензируются.

 

ТРЕБОВАНИЯ К ОФОРМЛЕНИЮ КОНТРОЛЬНЫХ РАБОТ

Выполняются письменные контрольные работы в отдельной тетради или на листах бумаги формата А4 – в альбомной ориентации.

Проверенная контрольная работа и получившая оценку «допустить к зачету» не высылается студенту, а остается на кафедре.

Контрольная работа, получившая оценку «для исправления», выдается (высылается) студенту для работы над ошибками и исправления.

Контрольная работа должна иметь титульный лист (см. Приложение 1), нумерацию страниц, список использованной литературы в конце работы, а также дату ее выполнения и личную подпись студента.

Материал контрольной работы следует располагать по следующему образцу:

 

а) в тетради

Поля	Левая страница	Правая страница	Поля
Английский текст	Русский текст

б) лист формата А4 в альбомной ориентации делится пополам

Поля	Левая часть листа	Правая часть листа	Поля
Английский текст	Русский текст

Обязательно пишется № задания и формулировка самого задания (см. образец).

Выполненные контрольные работы направляются для проверки и рецензирования в институт в установленные сроки.

Если контрольная работа выполнена без соблюдения сроков, указаний или не полностью, она не принимается для проверки.

Контрольная работа должна быть написана четким, понятным почерком, без исправлений. На страницах работы следует оставить поля (не менее 3 см) для замечаний, объяснений и методических указаний рецензента.

ВЫПОЛНЕНИЕ КОНТРОЛЬНЫХ РАБОТ

Приступая к выполнению контрольной работы, необходимо выписать перечень грамматических тем, которые предлагаются в контрольной работе, найти их в учебнике по грамматике английского языка и изучить их, а затем выполнить ряд тренировочных упражнений..

После этого внимательно просмотреть раздел контрольного задания, который называется «образец выполнения».

 

ИСПРАВЛЕНИЕ РАБОТЫ НА ОСНОВЕ РЕЦЕНЗИЙ

 

Получив от рецензента проверенные контрольные работы, внимательно прочитайте рецензию, ознакомьтесь с замечаниями рецензента и проанализируйте отмеченные в работе ошибки. Руководствуясь указаниями рецензента, проработайте еще раз необходимый учебный материал. Все предложения, в которых были обнаружены ошибки или неточности перевода, перепишите в исправленном виде в конце данной контрольной работы под заголовком «Исправление ошибок».

Проверенные и допущенные к зачету контрольные работы являются учебными документами и остаются на кафедре иностранных языков.

Reuters, as the agency soon became known, extended its service to the British press as well as to other European countries. It also expanded the content to include general and economic news from all around the world. As overland telegraph and undersea cable facilities developed, the business expanded. It included the Far East in 1872 and South America in 1874. In 1923 Reuters pioneered the use of radio to transmit news internationally.

In 1941 Reuters restructured itself as a company. The new owners, the British national and provincial press, formed the Trust. The Trust preserves Reuters independence and neutrality. In 1984 Reuters became a public company.

1. Перепишите и письменно переведите текст. Подчеркните сказуемое в каждом предложении.

Television now plays an important role in our life. It is difficult to say if it is good or bad. It is clear that television has advantages and disadvantages.

In the first place television is an entertainment. But it is not only a convenient entertainment. For a family it is more convenient and less expensive to sit comfortably at home than to go out to find entertainment in other places. They don’t have to pay for expensive seats at the theater or cinema. They turn on the TV set and can see interesting films, concerts, football matches.

But some people think that it is bad to watch TV. Those who watch TV need do nothing. We are passive when we watch TV. Television shows us many interesting programmes. But again there is a disadvantage here: we watch TV every evening, and it begins to dominate our lives.

Вариант 1

 

What is news?

 

1. The nature of news is a favorite subject of discussion among journalists/ some places the emphasis on one aspect, some on another but it is generally agreed that that the essence of news is topicality, novelty and generally interest. To be news an item of information must have a bearing on affairs of the moment, it must be new for those who hear or read it, and it must arouse the interest of a considerable number of those hearers or readers. Item which possess these qualities to a marked degree are often spoken of as hard news, and are given priority by those who select and arrange the contents of the paper.

2. The art of news gathering calls for a highly developed sense of news values. To acquire this sense the journalist must have a wide acquaintance with men affairs, a sound educational background and very considerable stock of general knowledge. For it is only thus that will be able to distinguish what is new from what is already known, and what is of topical interest from what is of little concern to the majority of his readers. And this knowledge he must keep constantly up to date by being himself an assiduous reader of newspaper and magazine.

3. Above all, he must have his finger on the pulse of current thought and public opinion. He must be aware of what the great mass of people around him are thinking and feeling. He must never lose “the common touch”, for although he himself may move in a circle whose interests are specialized, what he writes must appeal to the man in the street.

4. The collection of news has a highly organized in business. There is hardly a corner of the world today which is not covered by the gigantic network of news agencies.

5. Very briefly, the system operates thus. Local new is collected by the reporters and district representatives of provincial newspapers, and by the local staff correspondence of the national dailies. Events of national reporters are covered by staff reporters of the national dailies and by special correspondence of both the national and provincial press.

6. In addition, home news is reported by district correspondents of the news agencies, notably the Press Association, the Exchange Telegraph and Central News. Foreign news is gathered by Reuters news agency and by the foreign correspondents employed by the national dailies and some of the larger provincial papers. Items of interest to particular sections of the community (e.g. trade and technical news) are gathered by a smaller news agencies operating in different parts of the country.

 

 

2. Ответьте на следующие вопросы по тексту письменно.

 

1. What is the favorite subject of discussion among journalists?

2. What does it mean “to be of general interest”?

3. What other qualities must news possess?

4. Why must the journalists have a wide acquaintance with men and affairs?

5. Why is it essential to be aware of what the great mass of people is thinking?

6. Is the collection of news a highly organized business? Why?

7. Who gathers information about provincial and foreign life?

8. Who employs the foreign correspondents?

 

 

3. Напишите русские эквиваленты к следующим словам и выражениям:

Press Conference

 

1. Persons who know they are to be interviewed by the press often arrange for formal interviews at which representatives of all the newspapers in the community are present. From the standpoint of the reporter, such as interview is undesirable because none of the information he obtains is exclusive.

2. An advantage of the formal interview, however, lies in fact that there are several minds thinking up questions to ask. Frequently the person to be interviewed announces in advance that these questions must be prepared in writing and submitted some time before the hour of the interview. The procedure permits the reporter to know exactly what the subject matter of the interview is to be, but it also allows the interviewee to prepare guarded answers to questions which, if presented spontaneously, might bring forth answers more to be reporter’s liking.

3. Even when interviewing the person in the company of other reporters, it is possible to obtain material on which to write a different story from those which the other shall write. The keenest listener and the sharpest wit present write the best story. Comparison of several write-ups based on a joint interview often discloses different methods of handling the subject. One reporter plays up one statement and the other reporter picks an entirely different one foe his feature. Still a third writer concentrates on the personality of the interviewee rather than upon his remarks/

4. Sometimes it is possible to loiter for a minute or two at the end of a group interview to get a quick answer to an exclusive question.

 

2. Письменно ответьте на следующие вопросы по тексту.

1. How are formal interviews usually arranged?

2. Why is such interview undesirable from the standpoint of the reporter?

3. What is the advantage of the formal interview?

4. What does the person to be interviewed announced in advance?

5. What does the procedure permit the reporter and the interviewee to do?

6. Why do you think it is possible to write some exclusive material after a formal interview?

7. Who usually writes the best story?

8. What different methods of handling the subject can be used?

9. How can one get a quick answer to an exclusive question?

News conference

 

1. News conferences are structured opportunities to release news simultaneously to all media. They should be used only when the news is important and when interaction is required to promote understanding of complex of controversial topics. Unless the event is extremely newsworthy and simple cannot be handled through releases, or unless there is someone newsworthy to interview, do not call the conference.

2. For those rare occasions when news conferences are appropriate the following guide will help assure success.

3. Plan the event carefully. Invite all representatives of all media that may have an interest far enough in advance for editors to plan to send reporters and photographers. Select an appropriate site close to the event being covered and convenient for major media (hotel, press club, airport boardroom – never PR office). Check foe enough electrical outlets and telephones. Time the conference to accommodate major media deadlines. Make certain you prepare enough handout material for everyone. Prepare any visuals that maybe used so that they will photograph well from any place in the room. Prepare a poster of the organization’s logo or name to go over the one of the speaker’s stand if you use a rented facility. Plan to phone major media the morning or afternoon before the conference as a reminder. Simple refreshments are generally a nice touch.

4. Prepare executives and other to be interviewed. Make certain they understand the topics that will be discussed. Help them anticipate for difficult and touchy questions. If they do not know the answer, they should say so and offer to find out. If the answer to the question is considered proprietary information, they should state that it is not for public disclosure. Cultivate a pleasant, cooperative attitude among those who will be interviewed. If they are afraid of or resent the media, it will show. Advise them to avoid off-the-record comments.

5. Public relations practitioners are the directors and stage managers. Keep the meeting moving and interesting, but do not take over the jobs of the media. Try to keep relationships cordial and professional even in the heat of questioning. Never take obvious control of the meeting unless things get out of hand.

6. Public relations practitioners increasingly are using social science techniques in their work. They are expected to know about surveys, data searches and content analysis and how to conduct telephone and personal interviews.

7. The relationship between journalists and public relation practitioners is a difficult one. If practitioners understand the media and the reporter’s role, however, positive relationships can be developed that are beneficial to all.

8. Once positive relations are established, several steps should be taken to use them effectively. Developing appropriate attitude, setting goals, planning and performing adequate research are essential aspects of successful media relations.

9. Specific techniques for communicating with the media include publicity releases, news kits, newsrooms, interviews and news conferences. All of these approaches must be used judiciously – for publicity may backfire. Inappropriate publicity efforts can injure the relations that have been built over time with the media and the public.

 

2. Письменно ответьте на вопросы по тексту.

 

1. What opportunities do news conferences offer?

2. When should they be used?

3. What topics are covered at news conferences?

4. What are the first steps in organizing the news conference?

6. How can you help the executives prepare foe journalist’s questions?

7. Why it is so important to cultivate a pleasant and corporative attitude of the interviewee?

8. What are the recommendations you can add?

9. How must PR practitioners work during news conferences?

Working with the media

 

1. With a basic understanding of the complex relationships between PR practitioners and journalists, we can outline few general principles foe working with the media. In the first place, managers must reconcile themselves to the legitimacy of the media’s role in monitoring the performance of their organizations and leaders. Managers and institutions must understand and accommodate the unique position of the media, realizing that, on one level, an adversarial relationship is normal.

2. The beat advice in dealing with the media is to give journalists what they want in the form and language they want. Respond quickly and honestly to media request for information. By working to establish a relationship of mutual trust with particular journalists, you can defuse many potentially antagonistic encounters.

3. Opportunity offered by media contact/ a meeting with the media represents a critical challenge as problems to be overcome. It is more constructive, however, to view them as opportunities. Publicity can not replace good works or effective actions, but it can gain attention for issues, ideas, or products. It can spotlight an organization’s personality, policies or performances. It can make something or someone known.

4. Every media contact is an opportunity to get feedback, to tell your story, to create a positive response to your organization. Of course there are dangers – but what opportunity presents itself without risk? And what opportunity can be taken without preparation?

5. Preparation strategies. Preparation to meet the media is essential for both individuals and organizations. Preparation means more than getting psyched up about a particular interview, because when the opportunity comes, there may be little time to prepare. A company official may have only two hours to gather information and prepare strategy to deal effectively with some very sensitive issue.

6. Before anyone in the organization meets with the media, the first step is to develop the proper set of attitudes. Meeting the media is an opportunity, not a problem; therefore, defensiveness is not appropriate. There is no need to feel intimidated – particularly if your objective is worthy. Is the case of the university’s fund – raising campaign, the purpose of the press conference must be kept firmly in mind. The PR director should refuse, in a friendly way, to be dragged by reporter’s questions into subjects other than the donation and campaign.

7. the attitude of the interviewee toward the journalists should be of hospitality, cooperation and openness. At the same time, the interviewee should decide what needs to be said and say it – no matter what the reporter’s questions may be. A positive mental attitude is essential. Once this attitude is established among everyone in an organization who may be called upon to be interviewed, it becomes much easier and less dramatic to prepare for specific interviewers.

Video conferencing reduces travel for meetings Recent research shows that most professionals around the world think that internet video conferencing – using an “internet video phone” to see and talk with other people around the world – is very useful. They also think that video conferences can replace business travel for face-to-face meetings. Nearly 1,000 top executives in many countries were interviewed. About 900 of them agreed that video conferencing, e-mail and instant messaging help make them competitive. Video conferencing saves time, because professionals don’t need to travel for meetings. Also, travelling abroad can be very tiring for business people, but video conferencing is easy. It also saves money on air tickets and hotels. In the past, video conferencing was very expensive. But now you need only an inexpensive camera that connects to your computer, and a low-cost internet video service like Yahoo. Finally, reducing air travel is good for the environment. Mobile phone makers like Samsung, Nokia and Sony Ericsson are introducing mobile phones with video conferencing features, so video conferencing will soon be even easier. From the Financial Times

Cultural differences in business communication There are big cultural differences between North American business people and business people in Europe and Asia when it comes to using the telephone and e-mail. North Americans like e-mail more than they like the telephone. E-mail is a “one-way” message. You can write an e-mail at any time. The person who receives the e-mail can read it later. This is convenient. Another cultural difference is voice mail. American executives will leave a message on voice mail if there is no reply. European executives, on the other hand, prefer two-way communication, such a phone call or face-to-face meeting. They don’t like to use voicemail. They prefer to call back later, when they can have a conversation. And professionals in the Asia-Pacific region dislike one-way communication even more than the Europeans do. What about telecommuting (working from home, but doing business by phone and e-mail)? Half of North American business people say they like working alone. Telecommuting is very common there. 59% of American business people telecommute a least once a month. Less than 30% of European workers do. They prefer to be in the office, working with their colleagues face to face. So be careful. If you’re working with people from other countries, try to understand their feelings about different types of communication. From the Financial Times
