  18. Speaking • Situation 3 Introducing the purpose of a company • Situation 4 Introducing the history of a company

  19. Situation 3 Introducing the purpose of a company Sample dialogue 1 Lee: Good morning. I’d like you to join me in welcoming Jack Jonathan, the Northeast Area Sales Vice President from the New World Biotechnology Inc. in Australia. Jack: Thank you, Ms. Lee. Good morning, everyone. Lee: I’m so honored to have this opportunity to introduce our NIO (Beijing) Biotechnology Inc. to you. Jack: My pleasure, too. I’m looking forward to today’s visiting very much. Lee: NIO is a start-up firm specializing in nitric oxide medical technology. It was initially a Texas Limited Liability Company named NOS. Jack: What’s NOS for at the very beginning? Lee: The purpose of NOS was to commercialize patented nitric oxide treatments. The first two patents were for nitric oxide donor compounds and a synthetic blood emulsion containing nitric oxide.

  20. Situation 3 Introducing the purpose of a company Sample dialogue 1 Jack: That’s a kind of great job, and also an achievement in biotech and medical field. Lee: Of course, because co-founders are a group of scientists at the University of Texas Medical Branch. Jack: No wonder. NOS is firmly based on a team of talents. Lee: Besides the two patents, the inventors discovered a third approach to nitric oxide therapy that is now the intellectual property of NIO. Jack: I see. Lee: And then Mr. Rai Kelso joined the company and provided funding to pursue a patent on the invention. Jack: I have been heard of Mr. Rai Kelso, but I have no idea that he is one of the persons who rendered outstanding contribution to NIO.

Susan: Glad to see you, Mr. Jonathan, I’m Susan, it’s my job to take you to visit our factory. Please this way. Jack: Thank you, Susan. May I ask when NIO was exactly established? Susan: Actually In December of 2000. NIO was formed and registered in Delaware and on December 31 NOS merged into NIO, Inc. Jack: So when did it decide to expand its business into Chinese market? Susan: In July of 2005, NIO Beijing Biotechnology Inc was invested and formed by an affiliated company of the family of Daniel Executive (BVI) Holding Corporation. Jack: What’s the operating mode of NIO Beijing? Susan: NIO Beijing is the sole operating and licensing entity of NIO in China. Jack: I see. China is really a massive market with great development potential. Susan: Yes, so our mission is to develop and bring to market topical applications of medically important gels that release Nitric Oxide in China. Jack: I believe that it will not take a long time to get that achievement in the near future.

  28. Passage 1The Human Genome Project

  29. The Human Genome Project Since the beginning of time, people have yearned to explore the unknown, chart where they have been, and contemplate what they have found. The maps we make of these treks enable the next explorers to push ever farther the boundaries of our knowledge - about the earth, the sea, the sky, and indeed, ourselves. On a new quest to chart the innermost reaches of the human cell, scientists have now set out on biology's most important mapping expedition: the Human Genome Project. Its mission is to identify the full set of genetic instructions contained inside our cells and to read the

  30. complete text written in the language of the hereditary chemical DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). As part of this international project, biologists, chemists, engineers, computer scientists, mathematicians, and other scientists will work together to plot out several types of biological maps that will enable researchers to find their way through the labyrinth of molecules that define the physical traits of a human being. New maps developed through the Human Genome Project will enable researchers to pinpoint specific genes on our chromosomes. The most detailed map will allow scientists to decipher the genetic

  31. instructions encoded in the estimated 3 billion base pairs of nucleotide bases that make up human DNA. Analysis of this information, likely to continue throughout much of the 21st century, will revolutionize our understanding of how genes control the functions of the human body. This knowledge will provide new strategies to diagnose, treat, and possibly prevent human diseases. It will help explain the mysteries of embryonic development and give us important insights into our evolutionary past.

  32. The development of gene-splicing techniques over the past 20 years has given scientists remarkable opportunities to understand the molecular basis of how a cell functions, not only in disease, but in everyday activities as well. Using these techniques, scientists have mapped out the genetic molecules, or genes, that control many life processes in common microorganisms. Continued improvement of these biotechniques has allowed researchers to begin to develop maps of human chromosomes, which contain many more times the amount of genetic information than those of microorganisms. Though still somewhat crude, these maps have led to the discovery of some important genes.

  33. By the mid-1980s, rapid advances in chromosome mapping and other DNA techniques led many scientists to consider mapping all 46 chromosomes in the very large human genome. Detailed, standardized maps of all human chromosomes and knowledge about the nucleotide sequence of human DNA will enable scientists to find and study the genes involved in human diseases much more efficiently and rapidly than has ever been possible. This new effort - the Human Genome Project - is expected to take 15 years to complete and consists of two major components. The first - creating maps of the 23 pairs of chromosomes - should be completed in the first 5 to 10 years. The second component - sequencing the DNA contained in all

  34. the chromosomes - will probably require the full 15 years. Although DNA sequencing technology has advanced rapidly over the past few years, it is still too slow and costly to use for sequencing even the amount of DNA contained in a single human chromosome. So while some genome project scientists are developing chromosome maps, others will be working to improve the efficiency and lower the cost of sequencing technology. Why do the Human Genome Project? Most inherited diseases are rare, but taken together; the more than 3,000 disorders known to result from single altered genes rob millions of healthy and productive lives. Today, little can be done to treat, let alone cure, most of these diseases. But having a gene in hand allows scientists to study its structure and characterize the molecular alterations, or mutations, which results in disease. Progress in

  35. understanding the causes of cancer,for example, has taken a leap forward by the recent discovery of cancer genes. The goal of the Human Genome Project is to provide scientists with powerful new tools to help them clear the research hurdles that now keep them from understanding the molecular essence of other tragic and devastating illnesses, such as schizophrenia, alcoholism, Alzheimer’s disease, and manic depression. Gene mutations probably play a role in many of today's most common diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes, immune system disorders, and birth defects. These diseases are believed to result from complex interactions between genes and environmental factors. When genes for diseases have been identified, scientists can study how specific environmental factors, such as food, drugs, or pollutants interact with those genes.

  36. Finally, Human Genome Project research will help solve one of the greatest mysteries of life: How does one fertilized egg "know" to give rise to so many different specialized cells, such as those making up muscles, brain, heart, eyes, skin, blood, and so on? For a human being or any organism to develop normally, a specific gene or sets of genes must be switched on in the right place in the body at exactly the right moment in development.
