In this Business English vocabulary lesson, we'll take a look at some common collocations related to some of the different approaches to training and training programs. 在這商務(wù)英語(yǔ)詞匯課中，我們看看一些常用和訓(xùn)練方法和訓(xùn)練課程相關(guān)的習(xí)慣搭配。

Training is one of the most important investments a company will make. Poor training can lead to poorperformance, inefficiency, employeedissatisfaction, and a range of other problems. Good training, on the other hand, can make a company run smoothly, efficiently, and profitably. Training programs take many different shapes and forms, ranging from highly developed online systems to informal on-the-job training. Regardless of what form the training takes, it'sessential to think about the desired outcomes and plan accordingly. 培訓(xùn)是一個(gè)公司即將做的一項(xiàng)重要投資。不好的培訓(xùn)會(huì)導(dǎo)致員工不好的業(yè)績(jī)，低效率，雇員的不滿，和一系列的問(wèn)題。好的培訓(xùn)，另一方面來(lái)說(shuō)，能夠讓公司更順暢，更有效，更有益地運(yùn)行。培訓(xùn)項(xiàng)目有許多類型和種類。不管培訓(xùn)室一種什么形式，考慮好期望的收入和計(jì)劃是很重要的。

Before we listen, let's talk a little about collocations. A collocation is a group of words that native speakers often use together. A correct collocation sounds natural, while an incorrect collocation sounds unnatural. For example, in English we say "go online" to talk about using the Internet. But we can't say "proceed online" or "travel online", even though "proceed" and "travel" mean"go". Those simply aren't natural expressions. 在聽(tīng)之前，讓我們先簡(jiǎn)單說(shuō)說(shuō)搭配。一個(gè)搭配是指以英語(yǔ)為本族語(yǔ)的人經(jīng)常用的一連串的單詞。一個(gè)正確的搭配聽(tīng)起來(lái)很自然，而一個(gè)不正確的搭配聽(tīng)起來(lái)很不自然。比如，英語(yǔ)中我們用上網(wǎng)來(lái)說(shuō)使用網(wǎng)絡(luò)。但是我們不能說(shuō)在網(wǎng)上前進(jìn)或者在網(wǎng)上旅游，盡管它們的意思是上網(wǎng)。那些顯然不是地道的表達(dá)。

You'll hear many useful collocations in today's dialog. As you listen, try to pick out these natural combinations of words. Then we'll explain what they mean and how to use them in the debrief. We're going to hear a conversation between two people about training and development. Jeff works in HR for a firm of engineering consultants. He's talking to David, who has just given apresentation about new approaches to training. 在今天的對(duì)話中，我們聽(tīng)到了很多有用的搭配。當(dāng)你聽(tīng)的時(shí)候，試著找到這些常見(jiàn)的搭配。然后我們將會(huì)解釋它們的意思和怎么在匯報(bào)中用這些搭配。我們將要聽(tīng)到的是兩個(gè)人之間就培訓(xùn)和發(fā)展討論的對(duì)話。這個(gè)人正在和大衛(wèi)對(duì)話，之前他就培訓(xùn)方法進(jìn)行了陳述。
