概要

起業家の足跡をたどりながら、基本的な経済用語をマスターし、経済分野での英語コミュニケーションの力を養おう!

This book is designed to help Japanese EFL university students learn business vocabulary, improve their English reading comprehension and communication ability, as well as learn about the lives of important business leaders. Most of the profiled people are Japanese that students are at least a bit familiar with. All the materials have been piloted and then modified to best suit student needs.
Pre-reading activities include a vocabulary review, and scaffolding and schema building activities to activate students’ prior knowledge and prepare them for the readings. The pair-work dictation activities are warm-ups for the longer reading passage and use some of the selected vocabulary. The readings are not merely standard business profiles. Instead, the personality and philosophy of the business people are featured, with an emphasis on their uniqueness and business contributions. Reading comprehension questions include both global and detailed questions to review content and the main ideas. Every unit has a task, which is a communication activity that leads to deeper discussion of the ideas presented. There are three review units with quizzes on reading content as well as a vocabulary review of important economic terms.

本書は、ビジネスの世界で活躍する人物の話を素材にして、経済用語を学ぶとともに、英語の読解力とコミュニケーション力を高める目的で編集されています。取りあげたのは日本の大学生が一度は耳にしたことがある人物で、その生い立ちから経済人として活躍するまでのさまざまな逸話や資料に基づきながら、大学レベルの英語学習にふさわしい内容に仕上げてあります。本書に登場する経済人の人柄や人生哲学にふれながら、どんな個性の持ち主で、どんな功績をあげたのかを学んでください。
本書を用いた学習を通して、偉大な経済人の足跡をたどりながら、基本的な経済用語をマスターし、経済分野において英語でやり取りできる力を養ってくれることを願っています。
