Schwierigkeiten überwinden
Schreibtischtelefon
There are many means of communication today,
such as e-mail, mobile phones or fax.
His desktop phone was ringing, but he didn’t pick it
up.
Postal service is still important, as not everything
can be sent via e-mail.
Within the company, people mostly communicate
via e-mail or internal calls.
Our company receives many external calls from
customers.
At the moment the global economy is experiencing
a crisis.
They use expensive advertisement to market the
new TV sets.
We should ask a marketing consultancy for advice
before starting a new advertising campaign.
The company hired her, as she is an experienced
IT-specialist.

Mr. Johnson wasn’t in his office, so his secretary

He slowly dictated his address to me, so I could
send him the bill.
Many e-mail addresses are spelt with an underscore
to separate the names.
When typing in an Internet address you mustn’t
forget the dot after “www”.
Long Internet addresses have many slashes between
the separate units.
You can use a hyphen to separate your first name
from your surname.
Don’t forget to put a full stop after every sentence.
He added an exclamation mark to his request, so I
suppose it’s urgent.
In English the inverted commas are at the top
before and at the end of a quotation.

Nowadays business correspondence is mostly done
by e-mail.
The way she walks reflects her restless nature.
He resembles his brother very closely. They almost
look like twins.
My English is on a higher level than my younger
sister’s English.
It is important to consider formality when writing
an important letter or e-mail.
The number of customers constantly decreased, so
the company decided to change their advertising
strategy.
The recipient of the package could not be reached,
so it was sent back.
She didn’t read the inter-office memo, so she didn’t
know about the conference.
If he continues to be that unreliable, the company
will fire him.
Unfortunately, the documents are incomplete.
I can’t carry on working with them.
The transmission failed. We didn’t receive the
promised data.
The best way to deal with this problem is to talk
with those responsible for it.
The new secretary is quite insecure. But after some
time this will probably get better.
I will have the paperwork done by my colleague.
The teacher requires a lot from the students. They
have to do a lot of work.
This difficult task needs a great deal of
concentration.
The expense of this project is too big, so we decided
to cancel it.
I sent the important data in a registered letter.
In Austria employees have the right to a legal notice.
His explanations are based upon what he learned in
school.

Be sure to wear the appropriate clothes at the

Together with our business associates we agreed
upon a new advertisement campaign.
The teacher took a lot of time to comment on her
essay.
This package is huge! What might be in there?
The doctor took a sample of his blood, to make sure
he wasn’t seriously ill.
The architect was asked to quote a price for
designing the new building.
I’m sorry but I can’t read it out loud. The content is
strictly confidential.

Einführung
We went to the trade fair to have a look at the new
products.
There is an exhibition at the civic centre next week.
The launch of the new drink will take place next
month.
Everything is arranged for the takeover of the
company.
The merger of these two companies is not certain
yet.
The conditions for the share issue still need to be
determined.
We bought some shares on the Vienna stock
exchange.
This is just a first draft of the new plan.
The company’s sales letter is very convincing.
Please turn off the music. I’m in the process of
writing an essay.
I have invited only a few people, so 15 chairs will
do.
A reception was held for some of the guests.

Seite 23 von 34
It is an absolute must to be friendly to potential
customers.
In keeping with the newly built house, they bought
modern furniture.
I was scared by the dog’s rapid movement towards
me.
It is not easy to keep up with the rapidly-expanding
market.
The city has invested a lot of money in the new
sports facility.
In the demonstration area the new products are
presented.
In the summer months many shops are staffed by
students.
He is putting on a huge party next weekend.
In the sales letter they called me a valued customer.
