How It Helps Your Business English
The lesson explains what a request is and how can, could, will and would change its force, then separates formal from informal wording. Fourteen types of work request follow, each with an example sentence, and a matching activity, three recorded dialogues about an employee arranging a shift change, a poll and a quiz close it.
You listen to each recording while you read, then answer the conversation questions out loud before you look at the sample answers. Work through the matching activity on paper to fix the fourteen request types in mind, follow the three dialogues to see how one request is carried from a coworker to a supervisor, and finish with the quiz to check what you have kept.
