Voorwoord Voor u ligt een hoofdstuk van 20/20 English voor niveau 3 en 4 van het mbo. Het betreft een hoofdstuk uit het werkboek B1 voor de sector techniek. Dit hoofdstuk geeft u een goede indruk van het materiaal dat in het voorjaar van 2013 zal verschijnen. Dit werkboek bevat straks 10 hoofdstukken (units) en in elke unit staat een thema centraal. Dit thema heeft altijd betrekking op een situatie die de leerling in zijn toekomstig beroep kan tegenkomen. De opdrachten in deze unit passen binnen het thema. Elke unit wordt afgesloten met een case, waarin de leerling kan laten zien dat hij de geleerde stof beheerst en communicatief vaardiger is geworden. Na het doorwerken van dit boek beheerst de leerling het Engels op niveau B1 van het ERK. De leerling gebruikt dit werkboek in combinatie met het handboek voor de sector Techniek. Het handboek is een uitgebreid naslagwerk waarvan de leerling zowel tijdens als na zijn studie gebruik van zal maken. In dit werkboek wordt regelmatig verwezen naar paragrafen in het handboek. Er staat dan bijvoorbeeld: Study your handbook, E27, about prepositions (voorzetsels). De methode 20/20 English is bedoeld om zelfstandig leren en werken te vergemakkelijken. Als leerlingen de aanwijzingen in dit werkboek volgen en de opdrachten naar behoren uitvoeren, zullen zij merken dat zij veel vragen over Engels zelf kunnen beantwoorden en problemen zelf kunnen oplossen. De uitwerkingen komen op de website en zijn alleen toegankelijk voor u als docent. U kan zelf beslissen of u deze uitwerkingen uitdeelt aan de leerlingen. De website bevat verder onder meer luisterfragmenten en extra oefeningen. De auteurs

Reading Exercise 5 Before you go to work in a workshop as a trainee, you need to know the safety rules. Read the text carefully and answer the questions below in Dutch.
Workshop Safety Rules Understanding the basic safety rules is essential before starting your job in a workshop.. Do not handle machinery or other equipment, unless you are fully aware of the rules. 5 These rules will help keep you and others safe in the workshop, so read them carefully. 1 Always listen carefully to your supervisor and follow instructions. 2 Never run in the workshop, you may cause an accident. 10 3 Find out where the emergency stop buttons are in the workshop. 4 Always wear an overall as it will protect your clothes. 5 Do not enter the workshop without protective shoes. 6 If necessary, wear protective gloves. 7 Bags are not allowed in the workshop. 15 8 Ask questions, especially if you do not fully understand. It can be dangerous for you and your classmates if you do not know how to use a machine. 9 Never use a machine if you have not been shown how to operate it safely. 10 Be sure there are no loose items in your way while operating a machine. 11 Always be patient, never hurry in the workshop. 20 12 When working with a machine, make sure that a supervisor is around. 13 Keep your hands away from moving and/or rotating machinery. 14 Use hand tools carefully, keeping both hands behind the cutting edge. 15 Report any damage to machines because this could cause accidents. 10

1 Why do you have to read the instructions thoroughly?
2 Why aren’t you allowed to run in a workshop?
3 Why, according to you, is it important to know where the emergency stop buttons are?
4 What is meant by: Keep your hands away from moving and/or rotating machinery ?
5 When are you allowed to operate a machine?
Listening Exercise 6 Listen to and watch track 1. You will see a video about safety rules. Watch it carefully and answer the following questions in English. Use your own words. 1 Explain what Hardhat Hank means with 'NO HORSEPLAY'?
2 Use your own words to explain why everything has to be kept clean and organised.
3 What do you have to do when you are not using your tools?
4 What is important to carry with you in connection with light?
5 To whom do you have to report accidents?

Writing Exercise 7 Work in pairs. What is an operation sheet? This is what the Business Dictionary says. A detailed listing of all components related to a particular process. Often including elements like design, manufacturing and distribution, a standard operating sheet will provide an estimate of the time required to complete each stage. It is also frequently divided into two sections, manual and robot, to further define the time spent between the two types of manufacturing labour. A standard operating sheet is a tool used in lean manufacturing that aims to improve the process as a whole through standardization. Make your own operation sheet. Most of you will know the IKEA operation sheets. They are clear examples. Together with a class mate you will make an operation sheet for a device you work with at your company. Make sure the instructions are clear and will not be misunderstood. Before making your sheet, you need to be aware of the English names of shapes. Give the right translation of the shapes 1 square

Reading Exercise 9 This is a part of the law we know as the Arbowet (arbo = arbeidsomstandigheden). The text consists of 100 words. Summarise this text for your English colleague. Make sure you don’t use more than 25 words. Study your handbook B17-B19, to learn more about summarising (samenvatten).
Artikel 2 Deze wet en de daarop berustende bepalingen zijn mede van toepassing op: a. arbeid verricht binnen de exclusieve economische zone; b. verrichtingen van leerlingen en studenten in onderwijsinrichtingen of gedeelten daarvan, open ruimten daaronder begrepen, die vergelijkbaar zijn met arbeid in de beroepspraktijk; 5 c. arbeid die geheel of ten dele buiten Nederland wordt verricht door personen, werkzaam aan boord van zeeschepen die op grond van Nederlandse rechtsregels gerechtigd zijn de Nederlandse vlag te voeren; d. arbeid die voor een in Nederland gevestigde werkgever geheel of ten dele buiten Nederland wordt verricht door personen, werkzaam aan boord van luchtvaartuigen.
Exercise 10 Now you are going to do the same again, but this time the other way around. In the text you can read a part of the regulations in the United Kingdom. This is an excerpt of the British legislation concerning work in the United Kingdom. Read the text thoroughly and summarise it in Dutch. There are 300 words in the text. Read it carefully and underline any words you don’t know and look them up. When you have done that write a summary of no more than 80 words, in Dutch. If you need help, you can study your handbook, B17-B19. Be sure to mention all the important items.
Important to know if you want to work in the United Kingdom General rules on employment Young people over school leaving age and under 18 are known as young workers. Young people can leave school on the last Friday of June of the school year in which they are 16. There are special laws to protect the employment rights of young workers. These concern your health and 5 safety, what jobs you can do, when you can work, and how many hours you can work. These laws are very strict and an employer can be prosecuted for breaking them.
13
Unit 2 How to handle…
If you are over school-leaving age and an employee, you will have other rights in addition to the rights of young workers which are mentioned below. For example, it is against the law to discriminate against you at work because of your age. 10 For more information about age discrimination at work, see Age discrimination at work. For more information about other rights you have at work as an employee, see Basic rights at work. Health and safety at work If you are under 18, your employer must do an assessment of possible risks to your health and safety, before they employ you. They must pay particular attention to your age, lack of experience, and other things that 15 could be a risk to your health and safety. If you are under school leaving age (see under heading General rules on employment), your employer must also tell one of your parents the results of the assessment. This must include any risks identified, and any measures put in place to protect your health and safety at work. You do not have to be given a health and safety assessment if you are doing short term or occasional work 20 in a family business or in a private household, and this is not considered to be harmful to you.
If you want to learn more, go to: www.adviceguide.org.uk and select ‘work’.
Speaking interaction Exercise 11 Work in groups of three (or five). Study your handbook, A114-24. One of the items for discussion in a work meeting is working irregular hours. Your company wants you to work night-shifts. One is against it. One agrees. One is the chairperson.
14
Unit 2 How to handle…
Before you start the discussion, look up the rules about working hours in England. Go to www.direct.gov.uk and search for 'Employment rights for young people'. Write down at least three arguments for and three arguments against in the box below, then start the discussion. The chairperson will lead the discussion and will ensure that correct and appropriate language is used. Think of the useful phrases you have studied in your handbook.
Agree
Don’t agree
Now you can start the discussion. It will take about five minutes per group. The rest of the class will listen carefully and make notes, so you can give each other useful feedback.
Writing Exercise 12 Study your handbook, C1-C10 and C18, where you will find instructions about writing a formal letter. A British company has invited you to work for them as a trainee. They even want to pay you a handsome salary. This was exactly what you wanted, but you are not sure if it is allowed. So you write a letter to The British Embassy in order to find out what your rights and obligations are. Use a computer. You are going to stay in England for six months. The letter is to be sent to: British Embassy The Hague Lange Voorhout 10 2514 ED Den Haag The things you want to know: ■

Listening Exercise 13
Listen to track 2. It is a conversation between a trainee and his coach. Paul wants to know if he can use his brother’s protective footwear at work. Listen carefully and answer the questions in correct English. 1 Why does Paul’s coach take him into his office?
2 What does Paul’s brother do for a living? And what is Paul’s intended future occupation?
3 Why does Paul think his brother’s shoes will be fine?

10 Does Paul need shoes or boots? Explain your answer your answer.
Reading Exercise 14 Of course the ISO does a lot more than just looking after proper protective footwear. You will read a few texts about the International organisation of Standardization. You can find these texts and more on www.iso.org. The text ‘What is the ISO’ tells you something about the history of the ISO. Before you start reading, find the meaning of these words. First write down what you think each word means, then look up the word and give the meaning from the dictionary. Do not simply take the first meaning of a word. Sometimes one word can have various meanings. Be aware of the context within the text. Work in pairs if you like. What is the ISO?

What is the ISO? The ISO (International Organization for Standardization) is the world’s largest developer of voluntary International Standards. International Standards give state of the art specifications for products, services and good practice, helping to make industry more efficient and effective. Developed through global consensus, they help to break down 5 barriers to international trade. Our name Because 'International Organization for Standardization' would have different acronyms in different languages (IOS in English, OIN in French for Organisation internationale de normalisation), our founders
18
Unit 2 How to handle…
decided to give it the short form ISO. ISO is derived from the Greek isos, meaning equal. Whatever the 10 country, whatever the language, the short form of our name is always ISO. What we do The ISO develops International Standards. We were founded in 1947, and since then have published more than 19 000 International Standards covering almost all aspects of technology and business. From food safety to computers, and agriculture to healthcare, ISO International Standards impact all our lives. 15 What is a standard? A standard is a document that provides requirements, specifications, guidelines or characteristics that can be used consistently to ensure that materials, products, processes and services are fit for their purpose. The ISO has published over 19 000 International Standards that can be purchased from the ISO or its members.

2 Why is the acronym ISO used all over the world?
3 What do the ISO's standards cover? Do not copy from the text. Use your own words.
4 Explain what is meant by ‘fit for their purpose’.
5 Where, besides at the ISO itself, can publications be bought?
Listening Exercise 15 Listen to and watch track 14. It tells you all about ISO and its importance. Listen carefully and answer the questions in English. You can watch over and over again and stop the film when you answer a question. 1 What is wrong when things don’t work as they should?

Underline the words which indicate that you have to use the simple past (o.v.t.). 1 It was very hot yesterday. 2 Henry Ford developed his T-Ford quite a while ago. 3 The Dutch won a lot of gold medals during earlier Olympic Games. 4 I read recently that Heavy Metal is very bad for your hearing. 5 The battle of Hastings took place in 1066.

Writing Exercise 20 Before starting Exercise 12, you read a lot of instructions on letter writing. For formal letters you cannot do without these instructions, but when you write a memo you can make do with less. Study your handbook, C45. A new machine is going to be installed at your company. (For this exercise pick a machine that is used in your company). Next Friday a mechanic will instruct you all on the usage of this new machine. Write a

memo to your colleagues to let them know they all have to be present in the workshop where the new machine will be demonstrated. Do not forget to pick a machine you are familiar with in your line of work.
Speaking interaction Exercise 21 Work in pairs. One of the most important instructions in a workshop is what to do in case of emergency. What, for example, if someone suffers an electric shock? First take a piece of paper and make a crib sheet. Mind to use correct English sentences. You and your partner will perform the next role play in English. (A) asks the questions and (B) comes up with the answers. Switch roles when you have finished the conversation. (A) Vraag wat een elektrische schok precies inhoudt? (B) Vertel dat dan stroom dwars door je lichaam heen naar de aarde gaat. Pijnlijk en soms nog erger. (A) Vraag hoe erg, nog erger betekent. (B) Vertel dat het afhangt van de sterkte van de stroom. Je kunt je flink verbranden en in het ergste geval is het dodelijk. (A) Vraag wat je moet doen als iemand een zware elektrische schok krijgt. (B) Vertel dat onmiddellijk alle stroom uitgeschakeld moet worden. Lukt dit niet, het slachtoffer lostrekken of zelfs losslaan. Let wel altijd op de eigen veiligheid. (A) Vraag naar adviezen voor mensen die een risico lopen op elektrische schokken. (B) Zeg dat je iedereen adviseert om alle instructies van het bedrijf goed te bestuderen en goed op te letten of alles wel veilig is. Zeg dat er bij kapotte apparaten of bij slecht onderhoud, de baas gewaarschuwd moet worden.
Reading Exercise 22 Time to look into some first aid instruction. Of course you know the emergency number 112 in the Netherlands and 999 in the United Kingdom. Sometimes you have to act immediately. With this in mind you are going to read a text about what to do in the case of an arterial bleeding. First study your handbook, B8-B10. It says something about reading texts. After that skim the text and write down the words that draw your attention. You may be able to understand the meaning of these words by reading the text thoroughly. If not, look up what they mean.
22
Unit 2 How to handle…
ARTERIAL bleeding can be recognised by spurts with each beat of the heart. It is bright red in colour and is usually severe and hard to control. Arterial bleeding requires immediate attention! VENOUS bleeding is characterised by a steady flow and the blood is dark. Venous bleeding is easier to control than arterial bleeding CAPILLARY bleeding is usually slow, and has a higher risk of infection than other types of bleeding.
Now read the text which tells us what to do in cases of severe bleeding.
What to do if someone is bleeding severely ■
If possible, have the patient lie down and put his or her head slightly lower than the rest of the body . Also try to elevate his or her legs. These actions will help to increase the blood flow to the brain, which makes the chance of fainting smaller.
■
5
If possible, elevate the part of the body that is bleeding. Doing this will make the blood loss smaller, because the heart will have to work against gravity to pump blood to the injured part of the body.
■
Remove any large chunks of dirt or other debris from the wound.
■
Apply firm and direct pressure to the wound. If there is one within reach, use a sterile bandage. If you don’t have one of these, use a clean cloth. If you don’t have anything else, use something from your clothing.
10
■
Keep applying direct pressure to the wound until the bleeding stops. When it does stop, use adhesive tape or clothing to secure the dressing (whatever you used) in place on the wound.
■
If the bleeding starts again and blood comes through whatever you are using to keep pressure on the wound, do not remove the wound dressing, but put new absorbent material on top of it.
■
15
Once the bleeding has stopped, do your best to immobilise the part of the body that is injured and keep the patient as calm as possible until professional help arrives.
Answer the questions below in correct English. Do not copy lines from the text, use your own words. 1 Why should the blood flow to the head be increased?
2 What is meant by dirt and debris?
3 Can you apply pressure to the wound with your bare hands? Why or why not?
23
Unit 2 How to handle…
4 What are you to do if the wound starts bleeding again?
5 What does 'immobilise the part of the body that is injured' mean?
Speaking Exercise 23 A presentation is never easy. Study your handbook, A140-A144. Here you will find some useful tools that will help you to prepare a presentation. You are to prepare a power point presentation about your work. The presentation is about your day at work. Be sure that the slides of your presentation are attractive and give key information about your day’s work. Keep the rule of 3x7 in mind. A maximum of 7 slides on which a maximum of 7 sentences of a maximum of 7 words are to be found.

Case 2 | How to handle an internship abroad Sky-High Construction Ltd. has chosen you from all the applicants. Since Sky-High is a British company, it is obvious that the official company language is English. Therefore you need to become familiar with all kinds of English sayings, proverbs and words that you will meet, while working for Sky-High Construction Ltd.
Reading Just like the Dutch language, the English language is full of typical sayings and proverbs that are used to underline something, or to make something clear without using too many words. Very often you can translate a Dutch saying or proverb without a change in meaning, like ‘A new broom sweeps clean’, which means : ‘Nieuwe bezems vegen schoon.’ However very often this is not the case. For example: 'De aap komt uit de mouw' is NOT ‘The monkey comes out of the sleeve.’ in English. The English would say: ‘What an admission that is’. Below you will find a story filled with all kinds of English proverbs and sayings. They are underlined.
Company policy of Sky-High Construction Ltd regarding new employees. Too many cooks spoil the broth (1), therefore it is important that all our employees know what their tasks are. If someone does not agree, or doesn’t understand; don’t beat around the bush, (2) but come forward straight away (3). Although it is said that a fish always rots from the head down (4), Sky-High Construction Ltd believes in 5 shared responsibilities. Every employee is responsible for his or her own work and deeds. We work as one team, as one body. All for one and one for all is our motto. Before you start as working autonomously, you will be guided by a coach. Keep a low profile (5) and pay attention. Do not think that audacity pays (6). That is dead wrong (7), but keep asking questions when something is as clear as mud (8) to you. 10 Work has to be done thoroughly. We do not believe in stop-gap measures (9). We promise quality and quality is what the customers will receive. We are proud to be a financially healthy company and we certainly do not believe in robbing Peter to pay Paul (10). We do not want you to hide your gifts in a napkin (11). At Sky-High Construction Ltd you will be given a chance to exploit your talents. If your attitude is right, Sky-High Construction Ltd will bend over backwards (12) to 15 help you expand your horizon. A job worth doing is a job worth doing well (13) and stay alert, because opportunity seldom knocks twice (14).
Give the Dutch equivalent of the underlined words and phrases. 1 2 3 4 5
