Hi, so sorry for replying so late. As for your question, I know next to nothing about the case. I remember it from the news in 2007 and I know that she has been in the news again recently as the police came up with a German suspect. However, if you want my honest opinion, children who get lost this way are usually kidnapped. If she just got lost, someone would have come across her. Do you follow her case? What do you think? PN

Hello, what do you think of the disappearence of a three-year old british girl Madelaine McCann in 2007 at summer resort in  Portugal? Did she got lost or somebody really  kidnapped her? I would like to know your point of view If you watch her story and the news. Thank you!

Well, I have to agree with Dazz, The Incredibles is a perfect film :-). And once Dazz has children of his own, I am sure will appreciate the sequel even more. Thank you very much for sharing this :-). PN

Hi, I have one crucial question - Is The Incredibles really The Perfect Film?

# data[].attributes.body
Hello, I am currently choosing classes for next semester and don't quite understand how the system with English subjects works, so I was wondering whether you could help me;  Is it true that if I have successfully completed 2aj211 and 2aj212 but still have 4 semesters of mandatory English ahead of myself, I can fulfill the condition by simply taking any of the classes that are taught in English (For example Economics)?
Hope the question is phrased clearly, thanks in advance for the answer.

Hi, since there won´t be a large number of students to examine, I would like to do it in one day. PN

# data[].attributes.body
Good afternoon, I would like to ask if it is going to be only 1 day to retake an exam or more?

# data[].attributes.body
The maximum is 35. In order to pass, you need 21. If you get between 17 and 20, you can retake the oral exam in week 6. All this info is in the yellow tile. PN

Hello, may I ask you how many points can we get for the oral exam?

Since is a time expression that is used with a given time in the past - od té doby in Czech. So, the meaning of the given sentence is as follows: the last time I saw Jane was four years ago - I haven´t seen her since then. The time of seeing her is given, it was four years ago, it is finished and, therefore, it must be in the past. Does it make sense? PN

# data[].attributes.body
Hi:), can I ask for a little help, please? In a sentence ,,It's four years .......... Jane.", should there be a) ,,that I haven't seen" or b) ,,since I saw"?... b) is supposed to be the right answer but I can't find any explanation why. Thank you very much!

# data[].attributes.body
Thank you very much for the explanation, it's clear to me now :)

# data[].attributes.body
As for the question from 14:29, I have already answered this in here. Look for my post (blue colour) from May 14, 21:44. PN

# data[].attributes.body
As for the question from 14:08: Hi, when we say that bonds are tax-deductible, we actually mean that the bond´s coupon (the interest rate) is paid to the lender (the bondholder/ investor) by the company from its profits before taxation. So, the profit that is liable to taxation is lower, therefore the tax paid to the government/ state is lower. This is different with dividends (a part of a company´s profit paid to its shareholders) which are paid to shareholders from already taxed profit. Does it make sense now? PN

# data[].attributes.body
Hi, could you please explain what does "float a company" and "underwrite stock issue" mean? I simply can't understand it from the definition. Thanks a lot in advance! :)

# data[].attributes.body
Good afternoon, I would like to ask what it means that bonds are tax-deductible (I do not exactly understand the advantage of it for companies). Thanks for your response :)

# data[].attributes.body
I will open it during week 5 of the exam period. The oral exam retake will be on Monday 22nd June. PN

# data[].attributes.body
Good afternoon, I would like to know when you are going to open the registration for extra oral exams for those who failed the first attempt?

# data[].attributes.body
Thank you, I've searched in the wrong place))

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, they are in InSIS, in e-learning, in a file called 212 course information. PN

# data[].attributes.body
Hello, i woud like to ask about the questions for the oral exam. Can I find them somewhere?

# data[].attributes.body
Well, I haven´t noticed this definition. However, I would refer to this:  https://www.investopedia.com/terms/m/monetarypolicy.asp  PN

# data[].attributes.body
Hello, I would like to ask whether it is true that “monetary policy = government or central bank actions concerning the rate of growth of money in circulation”, I found this definition on the p.196. But I am not sure because I thought monetary policy is exercided only by the central bank.

Thank you.

# data[].attributes.body
At the oral exam, I will ask you one question from 211 and one question from 212 (from the lists in InSIS) and additional 5 questions requiring only short answers from the whole book. The whole exam should take about 15 minutes. PN P.S. Think about the style and manner of your request :-(

# data[].attributes.body
How many questions will we have for how much time in CBT test?

# data[].attributes.body
No, you don´t have to. You have to get 60% from the ORAL EXAM, though. PN

# data[].attributes.body
Hello, do we need to obtain at least 60% from CBT or it does not matter? Thanks.

# data[].attributes.body
As for the gapfill, write the letters in lower case. Regarding the multiple choice vocabulary in sentences, you only choose the correct option, you don´t write anything. PN

# data[].attributes.body
Hello, I just wanted to ask about filling the answers for tomorrows CBT regarding gapfill and sentence vocabulary. Are we supposed to fill in assigned letters (a, b, c...) or the words themselves? Thanks:)

# data[].attributes.body
Don´t worry, I will go over every single CBT :-). PN

# data[].attributes.body
Hello, I just want to ask if you will be going over our CBT´s once they are finished? As I was doing some sample excersises in E-learning, the system corrected me few times when I have been definitely correct. I don´t want to lose points on "the system".

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, it is true. PN

# data[].attributes.body
Good afternoon, I would like to ask about fiskal and monetary policies. I thought that fiscal policy can be implemented only by the government  and monetary one only by central banks. Is that true?

# data[].attributes.body
There will be three exercises in the CBT. A gapfill, sentence transformations and sentence-based vocabulary multiple choice. PN

# data[].attributes.body
Good evening, how many exercises are going to be in the CBT? Thank you.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, now it is clear! Thank you very much!

To underwrite a stock issue means to promise to buy a company´s shares that have not been bought by first-time investors. It is an investment bank which underwrites the stock issue (promises to buy the unsold shares) and it happens during IPO/ flotation - when a company sells its stock for the first time. Does it make sense now? PN

# data[].attributes.body
Good evening, I'm still not able to understand the term: underwrite a stock. May I ask you to explain it to me, please?:-) Thank you very much!

# data[].attributes.body
Thank you so much for your praise :-). I am really glad you enjoyed the lessons. I´ll think about The Incredibles :-) PN

# data[].attributes.body
You are welcome. I am glad you liked them :-). PN

The difference between Direct Debits and standing orders

Direct Debits give a company permission to take money from your bank account on an agreed date. They will need to notify you of a change to the amount or date. For example, you might use a Direct Debit to pay your gas and electricity bills.

Standing orders give the bank an instruction to pay an exact amount to another account regularly. For example, you might set up a standing order to pay your rent.

# data[].attributes.body
Hi! May I ask you, what's the difference between standing order and direct debit?

# data[].attributes.body
Hi, as for the question posted at 20:34, the quiz will have a very similar format. There will be descriptions and definitions and you have to write down the terms. There won´t be any other clues, such as first letters, to help you. PN

# data[].attributes.body
Hi, as for the question posted at 20:30 - a sample CBT is in e-learning in the section 212 course information. However, bear in mind that on 19th May there will be just a shortened version (gapfill, multiple choice vocabulary gapfill and sentence transformations). Gapfills and  multiple choice vocabulary gapfill can be also practised on the course website. PN

# data[].attributes.body
Hello, can I ask you if the quiz will be the same as the previous one, which we did with you? Or it will be completely blank (no initial letter/s). Thank you.

Where can we find the mentioned list of questions? I thought if was overall the 12 topics of the book. Thank you.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, thank you very much:)

# data[].attributes.body
Hi, I guess you are talking about the oral exam. Then, yes, I will choose 2 questions from the lists (one from 211 and one from 212) and I will be expecting complex answers. Then I will ask up to 5 shorter questions the answers to which are parts of the complex questions from the lists. For example, once you answer the two more complex questions, I might ask about one of Geert Hosfstede´s dimensions/ one type of a job interview/ what a bond is, etc. All these are parts of the questions from the list. I will just be picking bits and pieces. I might also be asking about your personal opinions on the various topics from the coursebook to test your fluency. Does this answer your question? PN

# data[].attributes.body
Hello, can I ask you, if all of the questions will be from the original list of questions for 2AJ211/212 or can we expect some completely new ones? thank you in advance:)

# data[].attributes.body
Well, what might make the exam difficult is the fact that I will be asking you more questions than just the usual two (one from 211 and one from 212) and that you won´t have any time to prepare. In a certain way it might remind the speaking part of a Cambridge exam. PN
