Answers 253 3 Model answer The Manager Hotel Nelson Queen’s Road Rowborough RB2 4RN Yr Ref: EN2 16 October 2006 Dear Sir Vacancy for Reception Staff 54 Sydney Road Rowborough RB1 6FD Tel: 0122-354-751 I am writing in response to your advert for reception staff (Evening News 15/10). I am currently studying at Rowborough University, but I am looking for parttime work, and believe that I have the qualities you are seeking. As you will see from my enclosed CV I have previous experience of working in a team, and speak Mandarin and Japanese as well as English. Having no family commitments I am quite prepared to work evenings or weekends. I believe that I could make a useful contribution to your business, which I am considering as a future career, and hope to hear from you soon. Yours faithfully P. Tan P. Tan Enc. CV 4.3 Reporting and Designing Surveys 1 (Other suggestions possible/in any order) Get up-to-date data Collect information about the behaviour of a specific group, e.g. overseas students in London Check/replicate other research 2a 2b 2c 2d conducted random questionnaire questioned
254 Answers 2e respondents 2f Interviewees 2g mentioned 2h majority 2i slightly 2j minority 2k questions 2l common 2m generally 2n sample 3 Model questions. (3–6 could use present tense) Q2 Why did you take a job? Q3 What effect did the work have on your studies? Q4 What kind of work did you do? Q5 What hours did you work? Q6 How much did you earn? Q7 Do you have any comments on your work? 4a past tense 4b present tense The survey is completed but the results are still valid. 5 (ii) is less embarrassing for most people to answer. 6 (i) is an open question and has many possible answers. (ii) is a closed question with a limited range of responses. 7 For casual interviews ten is probably the maximum most interviewees will cope with. 4.5 Comparison Essay (Other answers possible) a b c It normally involves having access to a secure site on the internet where a graded series of lessons are available, and which have assignments sent and returned by email. A student living in a small town in China, for example, can now study a course at an American college. Membership of a group may also create a useful spirit of competition, which stimulates learning.
