Two simple but effective tips for having a business talk
Prepare
Gather as much information as you can before the business talk. Practice making your case. Think of the responses you might receive and imagine how you will answer. Try and imagine everything that could possibly occur during the talk, and prepare a response. Take Your Time
It is important to be mentally present and willing to consider what the other party says. Feel free to walk away from the talk for a moment to collect your thoughts and reconsider your position. The other party might say something that changes your idea of the business deal.
Responding too quickly might cause you to miss something important. Take the time to take a breath, drink a glass of water and remind yourself of what you aim to get out of the business talk.
What should you do first in preparing for a business talk?
Gather as much ______ as you can.

听力原文: Obtaining good health insurance is a real necessity while you are studying overseas. It protects you from minor and major medical expenses that can wipe out not only your savings but your dreams of an education abroad. There are often two different types of health insurance you can consider buying, international travel insurance and student insurance in the country where you will be going.
An international travel insurance policy is usually purchased in your home country before you go abroad. It generally covers a wide variety of medical services and you are often given a list of doctors in the area where you will travel who may even speak your native language. The drawback might be that you may not get your money back immediately. In other words, you may have to pay all you medical expenses and then later submit your receipts to the insurance company.
On the other hand, getting student heath insurance in the country where you will study might allow you to only pay a certain percentage of the medical cost at the time of the service and thus you don't have to have sufficient cash to pay the entire bill at once. Whatever you decide, obtaining some form. of health insurance is something you should consider before you go overseas. You shouldn't wait until you are sick with major medical hills to pay off.

C.It'll protect them from possible financial crises.
D.It'll prevent the doctors from overcharging them.
听力原文: There are three types of noise that can block communication. The first, external noise includes those obvious things that make it difficult to hear, as well as many other kinds of distractions. For instance, too much cigarette smoke in a crowded room might make it hard for you to pay attention to another person, and sitting in the rear of an auditorium might make a speaker's remarks unclear. External noise can interrupt communication almost anywhere in our model -- in the sender, channel, message, or receiver.
The second type of noise is physiological. A hearing disorder is probably the most obvious type of physiological barrier, although many more exist. Consider, for instance, the difficulty you experience as a listener when you are suffering from a cold or are very tired. In the same way you might speak less when you have a sore throat or a headache.
Psychological noise refers to forces within the sender or receiver that make these people less able to express or understand the message clearly. For instance, a fisherman might exaggerate the size and number of fish caught in order to convince himself and others of his talents. In the same way, a student might become so upset upon learning that she failed a test that she would be unable to clearly understand where she went wrong.

听力原文: This week, we talk about getting an American education online. Finding the right online program requires research, just like a traditional education. (33) Talking to advisers and recruiters can help. Keep in mind, though, that they might have a financial interest to direct you to certain programs. Avoid a diploma mill, also known as degree mills, are nothing more than businesses. The education is poor quality, if they even require any class work to get a degree.
The Council on Higher Education Accreditation recognizes a group in Washington to accredit schools that offer distance learning. One hundred and ten programs in the United States and six other countries are accredited by the Distance Education and Training Council. (34) We asked the executive director, Michael Lambert, for advice on choosing a distance learning program. He says the first thing is to go on the CHEA Web site to find if the school is accredited. Next, make sure the school offers what you need. Do you need a degree, or will a certificate or license be enough? Another consideration is cost. Often the published price does not include all the costs, like books. Technology requirements can also add to the costs. Will you need to get new software or a high-speed Internet connection or even a new computer to take the classes you want?
Also, consider the level of interaction that an online program offers. You might never meet the teacher or other students in person. (35) You need to be able to work without the supervision that you might find in a traditional class.
(30)
A.They might recommend you a degree mill.
B.They might introduce you programs for the purpose of making money.
C.They might offer you pamphlets for certain programs.
D.They might charge higher than CHEA
