28、m to communicate with native speakers. So there is a basic question about learning English that we have to answer. Should you try to get to native-speaker accuracy (准确), or just effective (有效的) communication without perfection (完美)? Offshore English is a kind of language spoken largely by non-native
29、 speakers. It often appears in international business situations. Other languages influence Offshore English so that some expressions sound a little strange. Although native-speakers dont speak this way, they can still understand it. For example, I am working for my company since three years is not
30、grammatically correct. The sentence includes two mistakes common to many people who speak English as a foreign language, but there is no danger of misunderstanding what the speaker means. Many non-native speakers of English speak less than 100% accurate English. If the meaning is clear, then it is n
31、ot necessary to worry too much about it. Some mistakes, however, are serious, and can cause misunderstandings or problems. English learners need to pay attention to them.

32、Many English learners would like to be as accurate in the language as possible. However, their target level depends a lot on who they need to communicate with. In actual business practice, they may find that if they deal only with other non-native speakers, effective communication does not require a
