Questionário temático 1: Canadian workplace culture and small talk

  1. Pergunta 1 de 16

    Your shift starts at 8:00 am. When is the best time to arrive?
    Mostrar resposta

    Resposta: C. A few minutes early, so you are ready at 8:00

    Punctuality matters in Canadian workplaces. Arriving a few minutes early means you can start work on time.

  2. Pergunta 2 de 16

    You see a coworker for the first time today. What is usual in most Canadian workplaces?
    Mostrar resposta

    Resposta: D. Greet them, for example "Good morning!"

    Greet coworkers the first time you see them each day. You do not need to greet them again every time you pass.

  3. Pergunta 3 de 16

    A coworker says "Hi, how are you?" as you pass in the hallway. What is the most natural answer?
    Mostrar resposta

    Resposta: C. Good, thanks. How about you?

    "How are you?" is usually a greeting, not a real question about your health. A short, friendly answer and a question back is normal.

  4. Pergunta 4 de 16

    Which topic is usually safe for small talk with a new coworker?
    Mostrar resposta

    Resposta: A. Plans for the long weekend

    Weekend plans, weather, food and local events are safe topics. Pay, religion and politics are personal and best avoided.

  5. Pergunta 5 de 16

    Sofia: Hi, you must be new here. I'm Sofia. I work in receiving.
    Marco: Hi Sofia, I'm Marco. Today's my first day in shipping.
    Sofia: Welcome! What should I call you? Marco, or something shorter?
    Marco: Marco is fine. Nice to meet you.

    Mostrar resposta

    Resposta: C. What name he likes to be called

    Sofia asks, "What should I call you?" Asking what name someone prefers is polite. Marco tells her about shipping without being asked.

    Transcrição

    Sofia: Hi, you must be new here. I'm Sofia. I work in receiving.
    Marco: Hi Sofia, I'm Marco. Today's my first day in shipping.
    Sofia: Welcome! What should I call you? Marco, or something shorter?
    Marco: Marco is fine. Nice to meet you.

  6. Pergunta 6 de 16

    Your manager signs her emails "Dr. Ana Lopez". If you use her title, what should you call her?
    Mostrar resposta

    Resposta: D. Dr. Lopez

    In Canada, a title is used with the last name only, so "Dr. Lopez" is correct. Many workplaces simply use first names.

  7. Pergunta 7 de 16

    You forgot the name of a coworker you met yesterday. What is the best thing to do?
    Mostrar resposta

    Resposta: D. Say sorry and ask them to remind you

    Forgetting a name is common. Apologize and ask: "Sorry, can you remind me of your name?"

  8. Pergunta 8 de 16

    Which phrase is a polite way to end small talk and go back to work?
    Mostrar resposta

    Resposta: C. Anyway, I'd better get back to work. Talk later!

    "I'd better get back to work" ends the chat in a friendly way. The other choices sound rude.

  9. Pergunta 9 de 16

    You are writing to a mixed group of coworkers. Which greeting includes everyone?
    Mostrar resposta

    Resposta: D. Hi everyone

    The Language Portal of Canada suggests "Everyone" instead of "Guys" so that no one is left out.

  10. Pergunta 10 de 16

    Which job title is gender-inclusive?
    Mostrar resposta

    Resposta: D. Police officer

    Gender-inclusive titles such as police officer, chair and server work for everyone.

    Complete the workplace rule so that it includes everyone: "If an employee needs a day off, ___ must ask ___ supervisor."
    Mostrar resposta

    Resposta: C. they ... their

    When you do not know a person's gender, use singular "they" and "their".

    Priya: Morning, Tom. Can I mention something? Our office is scent-free.
    Tom: Oh, really? I didn't know that.
    Priya: Yes, a few people get headaches from strong perfume or cologne. It's in the handbook.
    Tom: Thanks for telling me. I won't wear cologne from now on.

    Mostrar resposta

    Resposta: B. The office does not allow strong scents

    Priya explains that the office is scent-free because some people get headaches from perfume or cologne. Many Canadian workplaces have this rule.

    Your supervisor asks you to use a machine you have never used before. What is the best response?
    Mostrar resposta

    Resposta: A. Say you are new to it and ask for a quick demo

    Asking questions is a normal way to learn how things are done at work. Being honest about what you know also keeps you safe.

  14. Pergunta 14 de 16

    A coworker borrowed your tools without asking. It just happened a second time. What is a good first step?
    Mostrar resposta

    Resposta: B. Talk to them calmly and directly about it

    Settlement advice is to address it calmly, kindly and directly when it happens a second time. If the problem continues, talk to your supervisor or HR.

  15. Pergunta 15 de 16

    Read the message. Jun's bus is cancelled on Tuesday morning, and he will be late. What should he do?

    Welcome to the team, Jun! A few things for your first week:

    - Your shift is 7:00 am to 3:30 pm, Monday to Friday. Please be at your station by 7:00.
    - We use first names here, including me.
    - If you're sick or running late, text me before 6:30 am at 403-555-0147.
    - Our building is scent-free.

    See you Monday!
    Karen (Shift Supervisor)

    Mostrar resposta

    Resposta: A. Text Karen before 6:30 am

    The message says to text Karen before 6:30 am if you are sick or running late. Always tell your supervisor before your shift starts.

  16. Pergunta 16 de 16

    Read the message. What should Jun call his supervisor?

    Welcome to the team, Jun! A few things for your first week:

    - Your shift is 7:00 am to 3:30 pm, Monday to Friday. Please be at your station by 7:00.
    - We use first names here, including me.
    - If you're sick or running late, text me before 6:30 am at 403-555-0147.
    - Our building is scent-free.

    See you Monday!
    Karen (Shift Supervisor)

    Mostrar resposta

    Karen writes, "We use first names here, including me." In Canada, a title such as Ms. goes with the last name, not the first name.

Perguntas frequentes

What certificate do I get, and what is it not?

If you score 80% or more on the final assessment, you get a PassEveryTest Certificate of Completion. It shows you finished this practice course. It is not a CLB level, an official language test result or an employer or government certification.

Will this course give me a CLB level for immigration or citizenship?

No. Immigration and citizenship use approved language tests or other accepted proof set by the Government of Canada. This course is practice for everyday workplace English only.

How do the listening questions work?

Your device reads the workplace conversation aloud in a Canadian English voice. The question does not show the script. You can read the script after you answer.

Do the pay and schedule rules in the lessons apply to my job?

The lessons use federal labour standards as an example. They apply to federally regulated workplaces, such as banks and airlines. Other jobs follow the employment standards of the province or territory where you work, so check those for your exact rules.

How does the final assessment work?

It has 35 questions picked at random from the whole course, with a 35-minute time limit. You get a new mix each time, and you need 80% to pass.

Where can I get free English classes in Canada?

Eligible newcomers, such as permanent residents and protected persons, can take free LINC classes. Contact a newcomer services organization near you to get a language assessment and register.

O certificado é acreditado ou reconhecido oficialmente?

Não. É um certificado de conclusão privado, apenas para o seu conhecimento. Não é reconhecido, acreditado nem aprovado por nenhum governo, entidade licenciadora, regulador ou instituição de ensino e não substitui qualquer licença, certificação ou formação exigida por lei.
