Here are a few telephone etiquette tips as an update to skills that are q

42、uite natural in many of us。 Always answer the phone by saying “Hello” and not any other greeting。 If the person who has been requested is not available， simply state that he or she “is not available at this time. May I take a message?” Not only does the person on the other end of the phone have a go

43、od impression about you， that feeling will apply to the person they are calling for as well。 Always be quick and to the point while remaining pleasant during a phone call. Friends and family will continue with a telephone conversation if they have time， otherwise they are not likely to rush you off

44、the phone no matter how busy they are. No one is perfect， so if you dial a wrong phone number， state your mistake， apologize and hang up the phone. 2. Ways to answer a telephone at work There are several accepted ways to answer a telephone at work。 You can simply say “Hello” or you can say you

45、r name, as in “ June Johnson speaking.” You don’t need to say the company's name if a receptionist or a secretary has already done so。 Try to speak in a pleasant， unrushed voice. If you are rushed and can't talk， it's better to say this and make plans to call back later. Don’t rustle papers or work

46、while you’re speaking on the phone. If you’re really too distracted to speak， then reschedule the call。 It’s okay and sometimes even necessary to screen your calls。 But there’s a right and a wrong way to do this. First, train your secretary to do it politely. It's better to ask “May I know who’

47、s calling？" than “ Who is this?" or even “ Who’s calling?” Second, don’t instruct your secretary to say you are out when you are in。 It’s acceptable to be in but too busy to talk at the moment and it's always better to be honest. Callers sense the difference, and besides， it may not look good ifyou’

48、re always out. It's rude not to return telephone calls regardless of whom they are from。 You might be ignoring a potential customer. Many people today don’t bother to return phone calls， and if you work for someone else， it’s highly unlikely that such behavior is acceptable. When you do return c

49、alls, try to place them yourself. If you must have your secretary make the call， then get on the line immediately. It’s not polite to keep someone waiting when you’ve placed the call。 Text Business Telephone Etiquette for Success Proper telephone etiquette is more important than ever in today’s

50、business environment. Much of our business communication takes place on the phone: in the office, at home， in the car， virtually anywhere. In various areas， proper phone technique can make or break deals or relationships. Look at these guidelines that can help you use the phone as a powerful tool。

51、 First is the greeting。 When answering the phone for business， be sure to identify yourself and your company。 If answering someone else's line, be sure to include their name in your greeting， so that the other party does not think they have reached a wrong number. For example, if Bob Johnson answ

52、ers Jim Smith’s line， he would say: “Jim Smith’s line, Bob Johnson speaking” and then take a message or handle the call, depending on how his office works. When you are the person making the call, be sure to use proper phone etiquette from the start. You want to be sure to be polite to the “gat

53、ekeepers” i.e. secretaries, receptionists etc. who answer the phone for your business contact, as they are the ones who have the power to put you through （or not） , say， at 4：55 P.M。 on Friday, when their boss is getting ready to leave the office。 When you have reached the party， if your call has

54、been expected， remind them of the prior conversation and appointment. People get busy and can seem surprised until you remind them of where they should remember you from。 If your call is not expected, unless it will be a short call， ask the party if they have the time for you。 If the other person do

55、es not have time, briefly state the purpose of your call and ask for an appointment to follow up at a later time。 Have a phone diary。 Keep a pencil and pad near the phone and jot notes during phone conversations. This will help you “actively listen” and have a reference later. Employ active lis

56、tening noises such as “Yes” or “I see” or “Great”. This lets the other person know that you care about what they have to say。 End the call on a positive note by thanking the other person for their time and express an interest in speaking with them again (if that is true)。 A gracious goodbye lea

57、ves the door open for further communication。 In this global village today, you never know whom you will be doing business with in the future， so burning any bridges， or telephone lines, would be unwise。 Language Points 1 Explanation of Difficult Sentences 1。 (Para。 2） If answering someone else's

In this sentence， the imperative clause ask the party … is the main clause with an if-clause； if they have the time for you as its object. Unless it will be a short call is an adverbial clause of concession. Translation： 如果你的電話

64、不是他們期待的，除非你的電話內(nèi)容很短，否則你要問(wèn)問(wèn)對(duì)方是否有時(shí)間和你交談。 Example: He won't finish his task in time unless he works hard。 Unless you are trying to lose weight to please yourself, it’s going to be tough to keep your motivation level high。 2 Important Words 1. virtually ad. in fact or for all practical purposes 事實(shí)上
