  Meetings That Work

  0 A vital skill for anyone running a business it is the ability to communicate

  00 effectively. This is particularly important in a meeting where complex arguments

  34 need to be put forward and where it is too vital to get the best out of the situation

  35 and those present in as little time as possible. Before calling a meeting, ask

  36 yourself if you actually need one, since so many are unproductive results and do

  37 not really need to take place. Sending an email or by using another means of

  38 communication, such as a simple phone call, might achieve the desired results in

  39 half the time. Having established the need for a meeting, so inform those you

  40 wish to attend and ask people to be punctual. Concerning the key to a good

  41 meeting is an agenda, which needs to be sent out in advance and should state the

  42 date, time and location. It should also contain the names of those ones who will

  43 be present and setthat out, starting with the most important, the points for

  44 discussion. Ask in advance for suggestions for items to be discussed about but

  45 set a deadline for submissions in order to reduce the amount of time that has to be spent under 'Any Other Business'.

  《Meetings that work》,起作用的会议。文章讲的是开好一个会议应该注意哪些问题。

  34题,it is vital to do sth.,做什么事情是至关重要的。too…to结构表示太而不能。从上下文和词组的用法来看,too是多余的。

  35题,正确的

  36题,since so many are unproductive,是说的很多会议都没有效果。主谓宾很齐全,unproductive做形容词就可以修饰前面的meeting,results是多余的。

  37题,完整的句子应该是Sending an email or(by)using another means of communication might achieve the desired results in half the time。介词by是多余的。有by,不仅后面的主语不对,也没有与前面的sending保持一致。

  38题,正确的

  39题,这个句子的前后没有因果关系,去掉so

  40题,(Concerning)the key to a good meeting is an agenda,主谓宾是齐全的,the key to a meeting是主语,is是谓语,an agenda是宾语,意思就是日程表是会议的关键。Concerning是多余的。

  41题,正确的

  42题,those who固定的搭配,指代哪些人,ones是多余的

  43题,去掉插入成分starting with the most important,完整的句子是set(that)out the points for discussion。set out是词组,在这里是陈述、阐明的意思:present information or ideas in a well-ordered way in writing or speech.。所以that多余。

  44题,discuss是及物动词,做讨论时直接用discuss,而不是discuss about。事实上,在discuss后面接about时的about一般都是做“大约的”意思讲,而不是一个完整的词组。所以此处about多余。

  45题,正确的。
