In 1936 the government established the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) lo provide a public service in radio. It also began broadcasting that year on (he recently invented television. At first solely through its agency, television and radio changed the entertainment habits and the culture of the nation. In 1955, however, the establishment of independent and commercial television and radio removed the BBC’s broadcasting monopoly.
Television is the single most popular form of entertainment in Britain. In the late 1980s the average adult spent twenty-five hours, and children eighteen hours, in front of the television set each week. They had four channels to choose from: BBC1 and BBC2, ITV (Independent Television) and Channel Four. Channel Four, which was established in 1982, specialises in minority interest programmes, but has proved highly successful. BBC television derives its income from the annual licence fee for television, while ITV and Channel Four are financed solely through advertising. Coronation Street, ITV’s most watched show, attracts advertising worth ten times the cost of making the programme.
The strength of British television lies in its high quality. «GO anywhere in the world,» one leading political journalist has written, «and British television is an object of envy and admiration…. The foundation of Britain’s excellence in the field of television is the tradition of public service broadcasting as upheld by the BBC.» Many involved in television, including foreigners living in Britain, claim that British television is the best in the world. Its export record and high audience ratings certainly suggest it is among the best. The reason lies in the quality of its innovation and its willingness to experiment. For example, British television enthusiastically took the Muppet Show, when its creator, Jim Henson, had been rejected by the American networks. In the fields of TV documentary, comedy and satire, or drama, British television is a world leader.

Retaining good staff
An organization’s capacity to identify,
attract and retain high-quality, high -performing people who can develop
winning strategies has become decisive in ensuring competitive advantage. High
performers are easier to define than to find. They are people with limitless
energy and enthusiasm. They are full of ideas and get things done quickly and
effectively. They inspire others not just by pep talks but also through the
sheer force of their example. Such people can push their organizations to
greater and greater heights. However, not all high performers are stolen, some
are lost. High performers generally leave because organizations do not know how
to keep them. Money remains an important motivator but organizations should not
imagine that it is the only one that matters. In practice, high performers to
take for granted that they will get a good financial package. They seek
motivation from other sources.
High performers are very keen to develop
their skills and their curriculum vitae. Offering time for regeneration is
another crucial way for organizations to retain high performers. Work needs to
be varied and time should available for creative thinking and mastering new
skills. They will not want to feel that success they are winning for the
organization is lost because of the inefficiency of others or by weaknesses in
support areas. Above all, high performers – especially if they are young – want
to feel that the organization they work for regards them as special. If they
find that it is not interested in them as people but only as high performing
commodities, their loyalty is minimal. On the other hand, if an organization
does invest in its people, it is much more likely to win loyalty from them and
create a community of talent and high performance that will worry competitors.

Job Ads
Checking out job advertisements is popular
with executives worldwide. But though the activity is universal, is the same
true of the advertisements? Are executive positions in different countries
advertised in the same way? First, what UK job seekers consider an essential piece
of information what the post pays – is absent from French and German adverts.
Most British advertisements mention not only salary, but also other material
incentives including a car and fringe benefits. French or German advertisements
rarely refer to these. The attention given to rewards in the UK indicates the
importance of the job and its responsibility. In France and Germany, that
information is given by the level of experience and qualifications demanded.
Salary can be assumed to correspond with this.
If French and German adverts are vague
about material rewards, they are precise about qualifications. They usually
demand “a degree in…” not simply “a degree”. In Germany, for example, a
technical director for a machine tool company will be expected to have a Dipl.-ing. degree
in Mechanical Engineering.
French advertisements go further. They may
specify not just the type of grande ecole degree, but
sometimes a particular set of institutions.
All this contrasts with the vague call for
‘graduates’ (or ‘graduate preferred’) which is found in the UK. British
companies often give the impression that they have a particular type of
applicant in mind, but are not sure about the supply and will consider others.
Their wording suggests hope and uncertainty.
In the UK qualifications beyond degree
level make employers nervous, but in France or Germany it is difficult to be
‘overqualified’

How to Make the Most of a
Job Interview
If you’ve done your
paperwork right, managed to arouse an employer’s interest and landed a job
interview, your real work is just beginning. It’s one thing to impress somebody
on paper or over the telephone, but it’s another thing to impress in the flesh.
A job interview is a business appointment in which everything counts in
conveying a good impression. Experts will tell you that advance preparation is
the key to interview success. Before you go to a job interview, find out all
you can about the company. Depending on the results of your research, you are
supposed to prepare an interview outfit that will make you look your very best.
In most places you are not expected to wear a Chanel suit, but even if you are
fresh from school don’t think that your favorite blue jeans, an oversized
sweater and screen-printed T-shirt will be right for projecting a businesslike
image.
Many personnel managers
will confess that they often turn candidates down for poor appearance; however,
your looks alone will not help you get a job unless you are mentally psyched
and prepared for the interview. It makes perfect sense to go through your
resume once again and make sure you know the dates of important events. Another
thing you can do is go through your personal achievements to make up your mind
what you might want to present to an interviewer as an impressive argument in
your favor. Before the interview, give yourself a good rest, budget your time
well, prepare everything you need in advance, so as not to panic and get lost
at last minute!
Every organization has
its own culture, tradition, folklore and signs of deference. But there are some
things to consider that may help everyone.
You know that in many
positions your lack of experience is a big disadvantage. You can also compensate
for your lack of experience with your qualifications, enthusiasm, ability to
learn quickly, and most of all your sense of responsibility.
It’s natural therefore
that if you really want to get this job you must show yourself as a mature
individual who is not acting on impulse, but is quite serious about his/her
choices. Fight for your place in life: change a negative into a positive: you
are young, but you are strong and can learn fast.
EXERCISE 1. Translate the first paragraph

EXERCISE 2. Say whether the following
statements are true, false or not stated:
1.
This is an interview for candidates who
have successfully passed the first hurdle.
2.
Many personnel managers often turn
candidates down only for lack of experience.
3.
Things like jeans and T-shirts are not
suitable for a business office.

III. Read the following text. How many parts does it consist of? Give the title to the text and to its parts. Define the key-sentence of each paragraph.
Accounting
is
shaped
by
the
environment
in
which
it
operates.
Just
as
nations
have
different
histories,
values,
and
political
systems,
they
also
have
different
patterns
of
financial
accounting
development.
In
a
number
of
countries
accounting
information
is
directed
primarily
toward
the
needs
of
investors
and
creditors,
and
“decision
usefulness”
is
the
overriding
criterion
for
judging
its
quality.
Financial
accounting
in
the
US
and
Great
Britain
has
had
such
an
orientation
for
many
years.
Moreover,
these
countries
have
large
and
developed
stock
exchanges
and
bond
markets.
As
a
result,
a
great
deal
of
information
is
disclosed
in
companies’
financial
reports;
and
determining
profitability
is
an
objective
of
financial
accounting.
However,
in
other
countries,
financial
accounting
has
a
different
focus
and
performs
other
roles.
For
example,
in
some
countries,
financial
accounting
is
designed
primarily
to
ensure
that
the
proper
amount
of
income
tax
is
collected
by
the
national
government.
This
is
the
case
in
most
South
American
countries.
In
other
countries,
financial
accounting
is
designed
to
help
accomplish
macroeconomic
policies,
such
as
achieving
a
predetermined
rate
of
growth
in
the
nation’s
economy.
Whether
income
tax
and
economic
policy
information
are
also
useful
to
individual
investors
and
creditors
is
somewhat
beside
the
point.
In
such
countries
as
Switzerland,
Germany,
and
Japan
the
environment
is
characterized
by
a
few,
very
large
banks
that
satisfy
most
of
the
capital
needs
of
business.
Ownership
also
tends
to
be
concentrated.
The
information
needs
are
satisfied
in
a
relatively
straightforward
way
–
through
personal
contacts
and
direct
visits.
Not
surprisingly,
the
financial
reports
tend
not
to
contain
as
much
information
as
US
companies’
reports.
And
since
banks
are
the
primary
source
of
capital,
financial
accounting
is
oriented
toward
creditor
protection. France and Sweden offer still another orientation of
financial accounting. National government plays a strong role in
managing the country’s resources. Governments also actively ensure
that businesses have adequate capital and will lend or even invest in
companies if necessary. Financial accounting is oriented toward
decision making by government planners.

WHAT CAN COMPUTERS DO?
From the first electronic digital computers of the forties to today’s versatile computers and most up — to — date microcomputers, very little has changed as far as basic computer operation is concerned.
In the last thirty years, vast improvement in the size, speed and capabilities of computers have taken place.
But today digital computers still use the same logical operations as their predecessors.
There are many basic concepts that can be applied to all types of computers, including microcomputers.
For the most part, human beings can do whatever computers can do, but computers can do it with much greater speed and accuracy, though computers perform all their calculations and operations one step at a time.
A computer is faster and more accurate than people, but unlike most people it must be given a complete set of instructions that tell it exactly what to do at each step of its operation.
This set of instructions, called a programme, is prepared by one or more persons for each job a computer is to do.
These programmes are placed in the computer memory unit in binary — coded form, with each instruction having unique code.
Computers are often used in applications where the results of their calculations are required immediately to be used in process controlling.
These are called real — time applications ; they are often found in industrial process control in industries such as paper mills, oil refineries, chemical plants, and many others.
The measuring systems send their signals to the computer which processes them and responds with appropriate control signals to be sent back to the process.
Computers in present use range considerably : from tiny things to big fellows.
The microcomputer, for one, is the smallest and the newest member of the computer family.
It usually consists of several integrated circuit chips, including a microprocessor chip, memory chips, and input / output interface chips which are the result of tremendous advances in large — scale integration.
Minicomputers are larger than microcomputers, they are widely used in industrial control systems, scientific institutions, and research laboratories.
Although more expensive than microcomputers, minicomputers continue to be widely used because they are generally faster and possess more capabilities.
The largest computers (“maxicomputers”) are those found in research centers, large scientific laboratories, big universities.
Most of the computer principles and concepts are common to all categories of computers, although there can be tremendous variations from computer to computer.
A question sometimes arises whether computers are able to think.
As a matter of fact they do not think.
It is the computer programmer who provides a programme of instructions and data which specifies every detail of what to do, how to do, and when to do it.
The computer is simply a high — speed machine which can manipulate data, solve problems, and make decisions, all under the control of the programme.
If the programmer makes a mistake in the programme or puts in the wrong data, the computer will produce wrong results.
Every computer contains five essential elements or units : the arithmetical logical unit, the memory unit, the control unit, the input unit, and the output unit.
The arithmetical logical unit is the area of the computer in which arithmetical and logical operations are performed on data.
The memory unit stores groups of binary digits (words) that can represent instructions (programme) which the computer is to perform and the data that are to be operated on by the progrmamme.
The input unit consists of all the devices used to take information and data that are external to the computer and put it into the memory unit.
The output unit consists of the devices used to transfer data and information from the computer to the outside world.
The control unit directs the operation of all the other units by providing timing and control signals.
This unit contains logic and timing circuits that generate the signal necessary to execute each instruction in a programme.
