W: Tang Lin?
M: Yes!
W: Please sit down.
M: Thank you very much.
W: So first of all, what is your field?
M: Well. I am majoring in business studies, but the course also involves a great deal of information technology.
W: I see. But what makes you think that you would be suitable for this ESP course in Australia?
M: Well, it seems to me that language improvement is very important and helpful in business studies, especially with the development of the international trade. But I think that an overseas course is particularly important because of the cultural insights it can provide.
W: Oh, it sounds interesting. Would you please explain it exactly?
M: Yeah, for example, I am very interested in contrasting negotiation styles. In what I’ve read, it seems that attitudes and approaches vary a lot from one culture to another.
W: That’s a quite interesting point. Well, now is there anything that you would like to ask me?
M: Yes. I wonder whether there are courses on ESP for business students in this college.
W: As 1 know, it specializes in a number of fields in ESP, and business is definitely one of them.
M: I see. Thanks a lot.
W: Right. It’s nice to meet you. We’ll let you know if you are on the short list by the end of this month. Now send in the next applicant!
M: Thank you very much!
