BEC中级口语考试注意事项
1. BEC口语考试的特点是什么？
1.情景性
2.功能性
3.互动性
就以上三大特点，以BEC中级口语考试第三阶段的双向讨论题为例进行详细分析。Example
Ordering raw materials
Your company is going to order some raw materials for your production.
You have been asked to help with the order.
Discuss the situation together, and decide:
(1) what you need to consider when you choose your suppliers;
(2) how will you communicate with your suppliers and work together to reduce your production costs.
Example Analysis
Candidate A: When considering a supplier, I think we must consider the price of goods first.(表明观点).
We would rather choose those who offer us a favorable price.(正说阐述观点)
或: We would not choose those who offer us a fancy price.(反说阐述观点)
Candidate B: Yes, I agree because only if we get the supply at a lower price can we make profit.(同意并说原因)
Well ,another important thing we should consider is reliability.(引出另一个观点) Candidate A: Right.(表示同意)
We will choose those who always deliver their goods on time or those who can ensure the quality of goods.(正说加强观点)
或: We would never choose those who always deliver their goods late or those who can?t ensure the quality of goods.(反说加强观点)
Candidate B: Absolutely. Late delivery may bring a heavy loss to us, and quality is the lifeline of a business or we may lose our own client.(同意并说原因)
What?s more, I think we should also consider the location of the suppliers.(引出另一个观点)
Do you agree? (征询意见)
Candidate A: No I don?t agree. In my opinion, the location is not the problem. If they can offer us a rock-bottom price, we would still choose them.（表示不同意并给出理由）
从这一部分题解示范中可以看出，整个第三阶段的双向讨论中，贯穿了商务情景、语言功能和交际技巧。这也正是BEC 口语测试的重点和难点。

1）My name is Jack Edward. Could you tell me your surname please?
My family name is Huang, and my given name is Qi Guang.
2) Where are you from?
I am from Xi?an , which is in the centre of China. It?s a famous historic city, and is also well known to tourists who travel the Silk Road.
3) Would you like to tell us something about your hometown?
Xi?an is surrounded by plains, and is bordered by a plateau to the north and the Qinling Mountains to the south.
4) Where?s the interest of places to in Beijing?
They are the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, Temple of Heaven, and the Summer Palace. Beijing has a lot of other famous sites as well.
5) What do you think of the people in your hometown?
I think they are usually very friendly and somewhat conservative. If you were to visit Xi?an, you?d soon notice that the people still retain many ancient customs and tradition, which is what I mean by conservative. You?d also notice that people there are very helpful. If you ask someone for directions, they will try to help you out, or find someone else who can help you. 6) What food and dishes do people have in your hometown?
Of course jiaozi or dumplings. My province is famous for its vinegar, which is used when we eat dumplings.
7) How do you spend the Spring Festival?
I spend it in my hometown and spend a week in my parents?s home. We eat delicious food, visit family and friends, and watch TV. I also like to try and contact my high school friends and see how they?re doing and what they?re up to . We give each other presents and we buy ourselves new clothes to wear for the new years.
8) Could you tell us some customs in your country?
It has a great number of customs. Let me tell you something about friendship. Really good friends will always help each other. I can go to a friend?s home any time of the day, and he will drop what he is doing and welcome me. It might sound strange to you, because I know that in the West, people usually schedule appointments with each other in advance. But, our friendship in China are very strong and deep, and it would be unheard of not to drop what you are doing and invite a friend in.
9) How is the weather in Beijing?
There are four season. Winter is cold, dry and windy, with a bit of snow. Spring is short and wet. Summer is hot and humid, with temperatures as high as 30 degrees centigrade. It?s pretty miserable in the summer unless you have air conditioning. Fall is probably the best season-it?s very comfortable-not windy, not cold, not humid.
10) Where do you usually go? Why?
I usually go to the Temple of Heaven best because it?s very beautiful. The park around it is very spacious and is filled with large gingko trees and some very old trees. Also, in the early morning, it?s very peaceful. The older generations are practicing their Tai-ji, while the younger children are running around and playing.
11) What problems does the governments face (in Beijing)? How can they be dealt with?
A lot of people have recently been laid off work.. They have little income and many have a family to support. I think they should be given a chance to get another job- maybe by giving them more training or something like that. Perhaps if the government provided a short-term vocational training course to people who have been laid off…that would help with the unemployment problem.
12) What does tourism bring to China?
Each year we are getting more tourists coming to China since the adoption of the open door policy. People see more foreigner and are used to the sight of foreigner compared to years ago. This is true in big cities like Shanghai, Beijing, and Guangzhou etc. China is becoming more cosmopolitan and people are getting more knowledge of the outside world.
13) Where do you like to visit on your holidays? And tell us why.
Xinjiang if I have a chance. Xinjiang is in the west of China and it has a large platform. The people there are mostly minority groups and I saw in the pictures the landscape is incredibly beautiful. If I travel to Xinjiang, I would take a train so that I can see the landscape throughout the journey.
14) How do you spend your holidays?
I usually meet with friends and go on outings. That?s the only time I can relax and do something I enjoy. Other than that, it is really difficult because I am always busy with my work and sometimes
I have to work night shifts.
15) Would you like to say something about your family?
Yes. I …d like to. I have 3 brothers and no sisters. Both of my parents are still living, and are still working. My grandparents on my father?s side are both living too, though my mother?s parents have already passed away. I am also married…I got married 2 years ago.
16) Do you like going shopping?
a. Very much. I spend most of my weekends shopping. Even if it?s just buying something small, I love to walk around and see what?s on sale and what?s available. My husband thinks I?m crazy about shopping, and he always tells me that I?m spending too much money. So, it?s a bit of an issue of conflict between my husband and me right now.
b. No, not at all. I really can?t stand it. Whenever my wife wants to go shopping, I just hand her some money and tell her to have a good time. I?d rather stay at home and just relax than fight the crowds in a busy shopping mall. I also hate just standing around and waiting for my wife to decide what to buy. It seems she takes an eternity to make a simple decision.
17) Can you cook?
a. Yes, I can cook many different styles of dishes- from Sichuan style to Peking duck. My husband says that I?m really a very good cook, and he always talks about starting a restaurant one day, and hiring me as his chief cook.
b. No. I really hate cooking. I just don?t like to spend much time on cooking, so I usually eat in the cafeteria. I know the food?s not very tasty in the cafeteria, but I don?t have enough money to eat out in a restaurant all the time, and I?m too lazy and unmotivated to cook for myself.
18) Do you often cook in your family?
No. My husband dose most of the cooking. For some reason, he finds cooking more enjoyable than I do. He also gets home from work earlier than I, so he just starts cooking dinner. By the time I get home, dinner?s almost ready. I do cook meals on weekends, but most of the time, it?s my husband who cooks.
19) Can you tell me what your major is?
Accounting, a major part of the School of Business at my university. I mainly studied international accounting system in foreign trade, to be more specific.
20) What do you think of your major?
a. I enjoy it very much. I didn?t know very much about it before I studied it, but I?m glad I chose it because it suits me a lot. My father actually suggested that I major in Accounting, because he thought that I would enjoy it.
b. I don?t like it at all. I wish I could have chosen a different one, but it?s next to impossible to change majors. I just hope that when I get a job, I won?t have to do a lot of work in my major.
21) What?s your educational background?
I went to Tsinghua University and studied Civil Engineering. I graduated with a bachelor?s degree in 1996. Then, I worked for 3 years in a factory before I went back to school and continued my studies at Beijing Polytechnic University, where I just graduated last year with a Master?s degree in Business.
22) You think Qinghua is the best university in our country. Please give me some reasons. Because it is one of the leading centres of scientific research, not only in China but also around the world. Many of the professors are doing research projects with professors in other countries, and are at the cutting edge of new technology. Also, it is one of the most difficult university to get into.
23) How do you try to get good grades when you are a student?
I think it?s important for a top student to be very intelligent, hardworking, and motivated. Without these three key factors, a student will not achieve his/her full potential. Also, the very best student must be more intelligent, more hard working and even more motivated than his peers.
24) What?s your job?
I work in the head office of Motorola. It?s near the Lufthansa Centre, by the third ring road and Liangmahe Road in Beijing. I?ve been there since 1985.
25) What?s your business?
I?m a professor in the Mathematics Department at Renmin University. I?ve been there for 9 year already.
26) What do you do during a day?
Most of the time, I sit behind a desk and answer phone calls. It?s not a very active job, but I do enjoy it most of the time, except when I get a phone call from a very angry customer. Sometimes, they just want to shout at someone, and because I?m the first one to answer the phone, I get the full vent of their anger.
27) Say something about your job?
Well, I?m a teacher of French. I teach undergraduate students who are majoring in French. I?ve been working for about 10 years already, teaching a whole variety of course over the past 10 years.
I suppose my teaching method is rather unconventional. I like to use French in the classroom as the medium of instruction. Many professors still prefer to teach the second language while speaking Chinese. I really feel that students need to be challenged from the very start to overcome their insecurities of speaking a different language.
28) What hobbies do you have?
Basketball. I?m a big basketball fan, even though I?m not very good at playing basketball myself. I love to watch the NBA on TV whenever I get a chance. I play ping-pong and volleyball whenever
I can.
29) What do you do in your free time?
I usually play on the computer and surf the internet. Once I get on the internet, I find that time really passes very quickly. Before I know it, several hours have passed and my back and neck are aching. I also like to go out for walks and read novels on ancient Chinese history.
30) Can you tell me what your favorite sport is? What are the rules?
Football most. The rules are basically this: There are two team of eleven players. Each team tries to kick the ball into the other?s team?s goal. You can?t hit the ball with your hands, unless you?re the goalkeeper. Also, football is a non-contact sport, so if you tackle an opposing players, you will be given a warning, and you might be kicked out of the game if you persist.
31) Can you say something about facilities in your university/Beijing?
a. At my university, we have mostly outdoor facilities- a track, football field, volleyball and badminton courts, and ping pong tables. The university is just now installing a new sports facility, but I?m not really sure what it?s going to be. I think there will probably be a weight room and maybe even a swimming pool.
b. Beijing has a lot of modern indoor facilities offering bowling, tennis, swimming, and other things. But, it?s too expensive for most Chinese, and you have to belong to the club in order to use the facilities.
32) Which do you prefer, reading books or newspaper?
I like to read newspaper such as the 21st century and China Daily. I usually read as long as I have time. Both of these newspapers are in English, and I find that it really is a good way for me to practise my English.
33) Where do you often go to see a film?
A cinema just around the corner from my home. It?s called the Poly Plaza Cinema. It?s probably one of the biggest cinemas in Beijing, so they always play the most modern films. And, the ticket price is still fairly reasonable.
34) What do you like doing when you?re free?
a. I like reading most. Because, I?m kind of an indoor type of person. I am interested in reading all kinds of books and newspaper or magazine articles, especially those on current issues. I just want to be informed of what?s going on in the world.
b. I?m kind of an outdoor type. I like to go swimming or play badminton with my family or friends during weekends or holidays. If I have a longer vacation, I usually travel to further away places all over the country.
35) Do you like music? What kind of music do you like?
Yes. Definitely classical music. I have nearly every famous classical work ever recorder. I could sit for hours in a room with my stereo turned up, just listening to classical music. I have also attended several concerts here in Beijing, where the world famous orchestras have come to play the great work of Mozart or Beethoven or Chopin or other composers.
36) Where have you been?
I?ve been to most of the major cities in China, and I?ve also travelled to Thailand and Singapore. I think that the more I travel, the more I want to travel. It?s so interesting to see how other people live, and it helps me to have a better understanding of other people. It?s really an amazing way to learn about different cultures- much more exciting and lasting longer than just reading about it in a textbook.
37) What do you think of the courses in your university?
a. I can say most of my courses will be helpful in the future. My university has tried very hard to keep up to date with the developments in our field. Having said that, there are some compulsory classes which I have no interest in, like politics and history. But overall, I do think the university has provided me with a good education. I don?t think it?s possible to learn everything one would need for a job, but I am satisfied with my courses and know that they will give me a good start.
b. I don?t think they are very good. There are some compulsory classes which I have no interest in. Also, our facilities are not very modern, so there are many things we cannot do.
38) Is American English better than British English?
Yes. It?s much easier to understand for me because I?ve had 2 foreign teaches – one of whom was from America and the other from Canada. I find the America accent to be more natural and informal, while the British accent is somewhat proper and inaccessible in some ways.
39) Can you tell me something the traditional architecture of our country?
Yes. Firstly, the buildings are made of wood or bamboo instead of stone or metal. Secondly, they are very high and always have curved eaves. Thirdly, the traditional buildings have doors and windows that are adorned with paintings.
40) Something about the sporting facilities like in your hometown?
There aren?t very many sporting facilities that are free and open to the public. To use most of the indoor facilities you must be a member. The outdoor fields are open to anyone. We have two indoor swimming pools, four football fields, and many basketball, badminton and volleyball courts. Also, there are a number of outdoor swimming pools, which are very popular, especially in the summer.
41) What is the reason of the rising birth rate in the rural areas in China?
Well, in my opinion there are mainly three causes. First of all in the countryside, especially in underdeveloped areas where farm work is done mainly with manual labour, people want to have as many children as possible to help out in the field. Another reason is that many farmers are still quite conservative and prefer to have a son to carry on their family name. Besides, there is no retirement insurance in the rural areas, so farmers need more than one child to support them when they are too old to work.
42) What is the difference between friendship and love?
I think friendship is a kind of loyalty. It?s strong and devoted, but it doesn?t have the same feeling as love. When you fall in love with someone, there?s this excitement, this chemistry, this feeling in the air that makes you feel really good. Friendship can provide you with some of that feeling, but not the depth nor heights of it. Love is stronger and more intense than friendship.
43) Are the subjects you are studying today relevant to present society? Give me some reason. Most of them are relevant, but some, like History and Politics, are not. I think that most of what I?m currently studying will be useful some time in the future. It?s true that there have been many changes in China, and there will be many changes to come. So, I suppose it?s not possible that all my subjects will be relevant in the near future. Even so, I know that I?m learning a lot of good principles that will be important no matter what changes may occur.
44)What do you think of TV and newspaper?
I like to know what?s going on in the world, so TV and newspaper are good ways for me to know what?s happening. I can?t say that I completely believe everything that I see on TV or read in the newspaper, but I do find them very interesting and entertaining. I?m kind of an information junkie, so I just like to know current things.
45) Would you like to say something about this idea that education should be more practical?
a. I love to study theory. Even if we do practice, it won?t necessarily be exactly relevant to our future jobs. Also, learning theories helps to develop our way of thinking. It gives us new ways of understanding and seeing things. Learning these ideas will help us as we meet problems in our day to day work. We need to be good problem solvers, so if we learn many ways to conceptualize a problem, we will also have more ways to solve it.
b. I?ll say practice is more important. What good are theories if they can?t be used in some practical way? I?ve heard of many people who study in university and earn a bachelor?s, master?s, or even a doctor?s degree, but they?re really no use at work. This proves that practice is more important than theory. I certainly don?t want to spend my time studying all kinds of theories, and not knowing anything useful for my job.
46) Do you think many people are aware of environmental issues?
I think the average person knows very little about global environmental issues. Even environmental issues in China are nearly unheard of. I think it?s probably because we?re still a developing country, and we don?t have the luxury of spending money on environmental concerns.
I would say that most people know that it?s important to conserve water if possible, though.
47) What are the most important changes in your field over the past ten years?
a. One big change has been the introduction of technology in all aspects of research. Now, it is possible to use computers to conduct simulated experiments, while controlling for most of the variables. This has been a great leap forward, as it opens up the doors for research to be conducted without the problem of extraneous factors.
b. I think the most important change in my field is that there is more and more competition from the western world. Many big foreign companies have entered the Chinese market. It is a challenge or an opportunity for some Chinese enterprises, but a disaster for others.
48) You have told me about a frightening car accident you had. Can you tell my why we have many traffic accidents?
It?s a case of modern society encountering the old way of life. Older people in China are not used to car traffic and do not have a “road sense” of how to travel on road with cars. Sometimes I see a car zooming down a road, and the next thing you know there?s a bicycle cart making it?s way slowly across the road. The car slams on its brakes, but the man riding the bicycle cart really has no inkling of how close a call that just is. That other major factor causing road accidents is that there are really too many vehicles on the road. The more vehicles, the more likely it is that there will be accident.
49) Is drug a serious problem in China? What are the results?
It?s getting more serious than before. I think there are two main consequences. First, It?s obviously harmful to people?s health. Second, it threatens the social stability of the country because people living on drugs may commit crimes if they are short of money. A lot of crimes are drug related. 50) Do you think the unemployment problem could be solved?
Well. It is not easy to solve it. I don?t think the problem can be solved in the near future because there are a large number of laid off workers and not enough job opportunities. The government should try to create more job opportunities in the field of tertiary industry, and on the other hand, laid off workers should put more efforts in self-improvement in order to find betters jobs.
DIY 题海冲浪
PART 1
The interview- about 3 minutes
In this part interlocutor asks questions to each of the candidates in turn. You in this part have to give information about yourself and express personal opinions.
答案
Part one
What is your name?
My name is A
What work do you do?
I am a teacher in middle school.
I have never been to your country. What is it like?
This is a big question. But I think there are several things you should know:
First of all China is a large country with t territory of 9,600,000 square kms.
Another thing you should know is that China has a long history of over 5000 years. Again China has the largest population in the world. Does that give you a clear idea?
Which is the best university in your country?
I suppose Beijing University is.
For one thing it has a world-wide reputation as a comprehensive university. It has been my dream to go to Beijing University since I was a child.
For another a lot of famous statemen and scholars used to study or teach there.
One more reason is that it is in the capital of China. I?ve always wanted to have a look at the beautiful city.
What are the most important factors when you accept a new job?
If there?s plenty of training offers, I?d be satisfied. In service training course will help me a lot in my future career. The other factors like salary, location etc. are of minimum importance. A man shouldn?t be too fussy when he?s aiming high.
1. BEC 中级口试Part Two 题型是怎样的？
第二部分是一个小型的演讲( mini-presentation), 考生被要求在三个给出的topic 中选择一个主题，准备一分钟，然后发表一个小型的演讲，时间也是一分钟，并回答partner在演讲结束后对自己提出的问题。
2. BEC中级口试Part Two 的解题步骤是什么？
1）快速浏览试卷，果断地确定自己熟悉的topic。
2）根据该主题提供的关键词( key words), 深入挖掘，将关键词组织成句子，最好争取能用每个关键词分解出1-2个句子。
请看下面的例子:
A: WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN…?
Selecting applicants for a job
◆Working experience
◆Personal qualities
B: WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN…?
Choosing a new supplier
◆Prices and discounts
◆Reputation
C: WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN…?
Aiming to improve production quality
◆Up to date equipment
◆Staff training
假设考生选择主题A, 如果我们将关键词进行分解，并扩展成句子就变成了完全不一样的表达：
First, I think working experience is very important when selecting applicants. Applicants who have already had the work experience in the relevant fields will learn the new job easier and quicker. And it will also save the company a lot of training fees if applicants have the related experience.
Second, we must consider the personal qualities of the applicants, such as personality and health. Companies tend to employ people whose character fits a special job. For example, consulting company tends to employ applicant who is analytical and knowledgeable, but advertising agents like their employees to be energetic and creative.
根据选定的topic，增加一到两个论点(key words), 以使你的演讲变得丰满，同时也能使考官看到你的语言和组织能力。
Third, I believe language is of great importance when selecting applicants. Nowadays, we do business with people from all over the world. Always we buy goods from Africa, and sell our electronic products to Europe; a foreign language especially English is needed if the company wants to expand to the world. Applicants who can speak one or more foreign languages will have a better chance to get the job.
有开始，有结束，条理清晰，逻辑严密是演讲最基本的要求，考生应将自己的演讲内容统一在一个完整的框架内，有用的词语和短语如下：
●选择主题
I choose topic…表明自己所选择的topic,提醒考官和partner注意自己表达的主题。
●开篇点题
表明自己有几个论点要说。
●论点组织
1. first…second…third…
2. firstly…secondly…thirdly…lastly…
3. one…another…the third one…and the last
4. to begin with…in addition/…another important consideration…finally
5. first of all…in the second place…last but not least…
6. to begin with…moreover…finally…
●论点拓展
举例: for example, for instance, take…for example, such as…
解释: that is, that means, it means that…
对比: in comparison with, compared to…
●结束演讲
Well, that?s all my points.
Right, it looks as though I?ve covered the main areas/ main points.
I think that just covers everything.
Before I close, let me just summarize the main points.
So, to sum up…
这样就将依次演讲完整地展现出来了，而且按照这样的框架将演讲的内容组织起来就显得比较丰满，接上题一例，请看一次完整的mini-speech.
I choose topic A- what is important when selecting applicants for a job. As to this topic, as far as I am concerned, there are 3 things to consider.
First, I think working experience is very important when selecting applicants. Applicants who have already had the work experience in the relevant fields will learn the new job easier and quicker. And it will also save the company a lot of training fees if applicants have the related experience.
Second, we must consider the personal qualities of the applicants, such as personality and health. Companies tend to employ people whose character fits a special job. For example, consulting company tends to employ applicant who is analytical and knowledgeable, but
advertising agents like their employees to be energetic and creative.
Third, I believe language is of great importance when selecting applicants. Nowadays, we do business with people from all over the world. Always we buy goods from Africa, and sell our electronic products to Europe; a foreign language especially English is needed if the company wants to expand to the world. Applicants who can speak one or more foreign languages will have a better chance to get the job.
Well, I think I have covered the main points. Thank you!

PART 2
‘Mini presentation?-about 6 minutes
In this part of the test you are asked to give a short talk on a business topic. You have to choose one of the topics from the three below and then talk for about one minute. You have one minute to prepare your idea.
1.如何准备BEC 中级口试的Part Three?
1) 准备好背景知识
第三部分的讨论是对相关商业问题较深入的讨论，如果缺乏背景知识，考生之间很难展开对话，BEC VANTAGE 的topic areas 有以下几个方面（摘自”Business English Certificates Handbook?）:
◆Personal identification
◆The office, general business environment and routine
◆Entertainment of clients, free time, relationship with colleagues and clients.
◆Travel and conference meetings
◆Using the telephone
◆Health and safety
◆Buying and selling
◆Company structures, system, process
◆Products and services
◆Results and achievements
◆Business issues
◆Other topic areas
因此作为口语考试的知识准备，考生可以通过BEC 阅读复习或其他参考书准备相关的背景知识，也可以参考我们精选的一些背景商业信息。
2）处理好与partner 的合作
第三部分是考生之间的conversation, 考生之间的合作直接决定该题的得分。只有双方积极合作，互相促进，才能使conversation 得以进行，否则就是自问自答或者是难堪的沉默。
a.摈弃自我主义和依赖思想，遵循“give your opinion +ask the opinion of your partner”的谈话方式
Examinee A: OK, shall we make a start?
Examinee B: OK!
Examinee A: Let?s start with travel and accommodation arrangements we need to make for the trade fair in China before the trip. First, I think we need to book the British
Airlines tickets, because the open day is very close. What’s your opinion? Examinee B: Traveling by BA is a good idea, and I think we can book the roundtrip ticket. It can save us a great deal!
Examinee A: Wonderful! And we must also consider the accommodation, what do you think?
b. 对于自己确实不熟悉的主题，可以通过强调、转换、解释、说明等方式将partner 的话进行复述(Say again in other words!),这样既展现了自己的rich vocabulary,又使对话得以延续。接上面的例子：
Examinee B: We need to stay there for 3 days, so I think we need to book a hotel. Crown Hotel is
a famous local hotel in China. It can provides us with comfortable bed, breakfast
and supper. Do you think it?s a good idea?
Examinee A: Crown Hotel is fine. We can get a good rest in the hotel, I think we don’t need to bother with lunch, because we have to go to the trade fair and may have lunch
outside. We will be very busy soon then !
黑体部分实际上就是对考生B 观点的解释和说明。
c.注意讨论的开始和结尾

__________________________________________________ What's important when…? 1. Monitoring the quality of service provided Feedback from the customers A: Feedback from the customers is very important because feedback can reflect the opinion of the customers on the quality of your service. To get this feedback a.s.a.p. and analyze it carefully is very helpful. From this feedback you can know what your customers think of your service what they are not satisfied with and how they like you to improve the quality of your service. Once you know what your customers want you will have a clear objective to improve or maintain the quality of your service and your monitoring will be more effective. Checking sales figures A: when we monitor the quality of service provided we must first check our sales figures. Sales figures is one of the most important factors in testing if the service you provide has high quality and if the customers are satisfied with your service. If your sales figures continue to grow that means you succeed in maintaining the quality of your service and your customers are confident when choosing your service. If there is a sudden decrease in your sales figure that will probably mean that you are now in trouble and the quality of your service is declining or undermined by some factors of uncertainty, which means you have to check the whole quality-control system to find out where the problem is. 2. Choosing a new sales agent Experience of agent A: we should first consider the experience of the agent we choose. The more experience the agent has the more chance he or she will have in dealing with sales. An experienced agent has profound knowledge on sales and is very professional in promoting sales and selling goods to customers. Furthermore experienced agent may have established his or her sales channels or relations which are the key factors to the success of sales. They can help
口语考试如果希望取得高分(比如7分以上)，不但要有一定的口语水平，还要来点“旁门左道”。依据我的经验，口语考试成绩=个人真实的口语水平x现场表现系数x考官认可系数。这三部分中，口语水平短时间内很难有大的提高，虽然完全可以通过充分的准备从而“脱胎换骨”。考官是否认可不能由你把握，但是与你的现场表现直接相关。所以，如果想要在口语考试中拿到高分，最能控制也是最立竿见影的就是你的现场表现。一句话：你要影响考官。 一、雅思口语考试三大破绽 口语考试并非"无机可乘",相反,它的主观性决定了它与生俱来的不准 确性。从两次口语取得8分的经历中,我总结出雅思口语考试有以下破绽,从而使考生能用于影响考官: 1 口语考试的成绩与你的真实水平是正相关的，但不是成正比的。也就是说，在你毫无准备的情况下，它能够测出你属于哪一个档次的，比如说，5-6分是一个中级档次，7-8分是一个高级档次。但是在同一个档次内部，到底是5分还是6分，7分还是8分，完全取决于两个人的主观博弈-你和考官。 2 口语考试的生杀大权掌握在考官手中，所以要“攻城为下，攻心为上”。我的口号是“要把考官当人看”,而不是机器或者大牲口(虽然你心里是这么想的)。口语考试考察的是考生的"沟通"能力,而非单纯的"口语"能力。所以,如果你在考试开始前没有礼貌地和考官打招呼,没有尊重地问问考官的名字,说话的时候表 情冷漠,没有笑容,光目呆滞,总是保持一个声调，使人感到乏味，离开考场时忘了对考官说"再见",总之就是没有给予考官对正常人应有的礼貌和尊重时,你是 休想得高分的。
3 “多算胜，少算不胜”。我们不能打无把握之仗，而要在考试前积极备战，从而使雅思口语考试的科学性在你的成绩上体现的微乎其微。因为口语考试采用的是题库制，所以所有的题目都能从网上找到“机经”。你完全可以做到有的放矢的备考。一旦你有了充分的准备，即使自认为口语水平一般的同学,通过一定的技术处理,完全有可能在口语考试中作到"点石成金",从而取得7分以上的成绩。 二、现场表现系数的四大要素 口语考试要有以下几个要素才能得高分:自信,反应,语音和表情。这就是我说的“现场表现系数”。 1 自信。你有面对考官的自信吗？比如,你是否会很轻松地反问考官:"What can I call you?"从而给考官的笫一印象就是:这个人肯定口语不错,因为其它考生都不敢和我这样!口语考试不同于一般的和鬼子聊天,而是你和一个考官在一间“阴森可怖”的小黑屋里面，你看着他，他看着你。你无权保持沉默，并且你所说的每一句话都将成为承堂证供，因为你面前还摆着一个录音机。你曾有的自信就在你还没有进入口语考场之前的焦急等待中彻底土崩瓦解了。那你就完了，因为你下面的口语考试就会出现技术变形。自信从何而来？准备。如果你对即将考到的题目烂熟于胸，你会不自信吗？如果你已经拥有了大量和鬼子练口语的经历，发现他们无非就是一群来中国“潇洒走一回”的流浪汉，你会不自信吗？所以，试问那些一考口语就紧张的同学，你们有谁在考试之前做到了以上这两点呢？ 2 反应。如果你希望对口语考试中的所有问题都有所准备，这是mission impossible。所以要对没有准备过的问题做出敏锐地反应。我第二次考8分的时候被问到一个问题：“Are physical exercises popular in China？”
BEC中级口语 第一讲 Ⅰ Presentation Example PART 2: Mini-presentation A: WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN…? Selecting applicants for a job W orking experience P ersonal qualities Sample 1 I choose topic A-what is important when selecting applicants for a job.

Third, I believe language is of great importance when selecting applicants. Nowadays, we do business with people from all over the world. Always we buy goods from Africa, and sell our electronic product to Europe; a foreign language especially English is needed if the company wants to expand to the world. Applicants who can speak one or more foreign languages will have a better chance to get the job. Sample 2 As we all know, the criteria used by HR professionals in screening and selecting applicants normally include such factors as working experience, personal qualities and communicative skills. Firstly, we pay a lot of attention to working experience of the applicant. A person with a solid record of related experience is more likely to fit in with a new company. Therefore he or she can be trusted to fulfill the tasks and solve the problems in a more professional and competent way. In addition to this, we also look at the personal qualities of the applicant. Does he or she has integrity, perseverance or ‘can do’spirit? Surely any organization can benefit from the reliability, devotion and enthusiam of its employees. Finally, good communicative skills such as interpersonal skills and team spirit are also becoming an important precondition in selecting qualified employees. B: WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN…? Preparing for a job interview S tudying the job advertisement Finding out about the company Before you go for an interview, you must make preparations so as to face the interviewer with more confidence. They include studying the job advertisement, finding out about the company, preparing yourself psychologically, etc.
BEC中级口语考试：基础篇 1.1第一部分考试形式 (Test format of Part 1) 在第一部分考试中，考官就考生的个人情况或工作、学习情况向其提问，考生作答。然后考官再提问，考生再作答。考官一般会对每个考生进行两轮提问，每一轮三至四个问题，随后转向另一名考生，在两名考生间交替进行，直到规定时满为止，一般大约3 分钟。 这部分考试的特点是：话题涵盖的范围一般比较简单、浅显，不会超出日常会话的范畴，而且大部分话题都比较类似，是由主考官从剑桥大学考试委员会印发的Question List上随机挑选的。考前的充分准备足以保证考生应付大多数问题。而且在第一部分考核过程中，考官提问的问句大部分都是简单句，一般不超过15个单词，清晰易懂。 1.2应试建议 (Tips on how to cope with Part 1) (1)Greet upon entering the exam room. 进入考场后，考生应当充满自信，自然大方地向考官问候致意。话不需多，但自然、新切的问候语，可以给考官留下良好的第一印象。常用的问候语包括： Good morning, sir / miss / madam. Good afternoon, sir / miss / madam. Nice to meet you. （注：有两位男老师在场，可以称呼gentlemen. 有两位女老师在场，可以称呼misses. 有一位男老师和一位女老师在场，可以干脆免去后面的敬呼语，或直接采纳上面第三种问候方式，以免去敬呼语太长、太繁琐的尴尬。Madam 一般用于明显很年长的女教师，否则改用miss，因为女性对年龄认可度比较敏感。） (2)Relax yourself, yet do avoid over relaxing yourself. 大部分考生都有过这样的经历：平时跟同伴一起练口语的时候说得挺流畅的，但一到课堂上回答老师问题时，或是一进入口语考试房间时，所有头脑中的思路都不翼而飞，头脑一片空白。因此，在很多情况下，口语考试表现不好并不是口语水平问题，而是过分紧张导致的发挥失常。因此，平时试着让自己多练练紧张时放松的能力，对于克服进入考场后突然情绪紧张导致的发挥失常很有帮助。 (3)Familiarize yourself with the pronunciation and intonation of the interlocutor and the other candidate. 由于考生来自不同的地域，很多方音重的考生在说英语的时候也同样如此，这在很大程度上会影响其他同一考场的考生的理解和反应。考官尽管发音准确，但因为不熟悉他（她）的语音语调，也有可能造成误解。因此，进入考场后，要尽快熟悉他们的语音语调及语速，以免由于误听导致反应错误。 (4)Be precise in understanding the questions. 考官的提问也好，同伴的问题也好，没听清的情况下切不可盲目作答，一定要问清楚问题是什么。考生要清楚的一点是，BEC口语考试是“口语”考试，而非听力考试，也许没听清对方的问题会影响你的分数，而在没听清问题的情况下盲目作答而导致答非所问，更会真正丢分。在以往的考试中，有些考生由于事先针对第一部分做了充分的准备，因此在考官提问的时候没有全神贯注，而是凭着准备过的问题想当然，背诵事先准备好的答案。这种错误是极不应该的，不仅会给考官留下作弊（cheating ）的不良印象，还会由于听力水平不佳而被扣分。要求对方重述问题的常用句型包括： Pardon, please? I beg your pardon? Sorry, could you please say that again? I’m sorry, but I didn’t quite catch you. Would you please repeat what you’ve
雅思口语考试第二部分的解答技巧 雅思口语的第二部分让众多考生头疼，流程相信同学们都知道，就是考官先给你一分钟准备一个话题，然后再进行一到两分钟的陈述，其实现在全国各地的考官一般最多给40秒左右的准备，一分钟左右的陈述，特别是北京的两个考点。很多同学抱怨不够时间组织语言，更多的同学说自己在表达的过程中还没有讲到点已经被考官打断了。 其实考官打断你主要有两个原因： 1)高水平的学生;对于一位学生的口语水平高低，其实考官不需要按照考试流程花两分钟时间去听完，最多30秒就知道了，不会浪费时间，因为后面还有很多学生等着考试，所以如果这些同学在1分钟内没讲完，考官会打断，但没关系，分数不会低。 2)模版式的学生;如果同学们开头太过于铺垫，模板，以及说的内容过于简单，甚至有些同学在某培训班同时培训过，讲的内容都是一模一样，这样考官都会中途打断，分数肯定不会高。 3)发音不过关的同学;在考试中，考官很少会看着考生说话，人与人之间的谈话，面对面的说话绝对会比不看着对方说话听得清，考官在不看着考生的情况下对于考生的发音捕捉能力会有所影响，如果考生的发音存在很多的问题，完全听不懂，在20秒内考官都没法听懂考生究竟在说什么的话，这样考官一般都会在半分钟内打断你，直接给一个印象分，一般都是5/5.5。 为了避免发生以上的问题，下面与大家分享终极TSE方法，帮助大家更好的在最短的时间内提高口语成绩。 T：代表的是Topic Sentence
S: 代表的是Supporting Ideas E：代表的是 Examples 我们第二部分的考题基本上是五大原则：人，物，地点，事件，媒体。 T：在讲五大原则任何一个的时候，务必把这个原则与你联系在一起，开头的时候有个主题句，通过这句话引入下面的支持观点，这个主题句可以通过一到两句话来完成，但最好是对你有影响的。描述这个人---对你有影响;描述这个物----对你有意义;描述这个地点---对你有回忆等等。。。 S：支持观点，在这里要注意，我相信很多同学都会用观点来支持自己，但太过于白话文，大部分用例子来支撑，部分考生喜欢用For example，First , secondly, last but not the least来讲分论点，但这样给考官的感觉是在背作文，而不是真正的口语。在S这的观点一般是需要比较正式点的语言，每讲的一句话最好不少于5个单词以下，但最好不超过5句话。过渡词用什么好呢?最好用well , also , actually ,as a matter of fact , you know 等等词。 E：例子是TSE方法中最重要的， E讲的例子必须是发生在你身上，感受到的，经历过的，而不是发生在你身边。只有这样才会对你产生具大的影响。 详细我们以一个7月常考的考题试范：a place where you can listen to music A place where you can listen to music 一旦遇到这个考题，大部分同学都会说Home , club, concert , 尽量与别的考生区别开来，想想还有什么地方可以听，今天我们来讲下：学校的HALL
中级口语考试技巧 口试第一部分考生在回答考官问题时，不要简单回答Yes 或No，还要用两三句话来做进一步解释说明。 第二部分： I choose topic A, 然后把题念一遍。 总括I think there are three points/aspects to consider. First, 把题卡上第一点说一下，然后用两三句话解释 Second, 把题卡上第二点说一下，然后用两三句话解释 Third, 把你发挥的第三点说一下，然后用两三句话解释 总结： In conclusion,/In summary, I think 三个要点重复一下are important when doing sth.(重复一下原题的要求） Well, that’s all I want to say. Thank you! 或 Well, I think I have covered the main points. Thank you! 切记： 1. 一定要合理利用1分钟的准备时间，最好写下要点，以防忘记，造成发言不连贯。要点是指能起到提醒作用的单词或词组，不必写完整句子，时间太短，没有时间写完整句子。 2. 一定要尽量发挥第三点，以使你的发言丰满，同时也能使考官看到你语言和话语组织能力。但是如果实在想不出来第三点，就说提示的两点也可以，但是一定要说满一分钟，解释要点可以有详有略。注意采用总－分－总的方法，这样显得条理清楚。 3. 在听搭档发言时，就要努力想自己要提的问题，要根据搭档的发言提问，不要跑题。如果搭档讲的内容没有听明白，就根据你听懂的几个单词提问也可以。 Which do you think is the most important point? Why? (前提是搭档在发言时没有表明态度) 要求搭档进一步解释某个要点。I am very interested in -----Could you further explain ----- , please? 提出自己看法，然后要求搭档评论。I think --- is also important. What do you think of it? 要求搭档说一下自己公司的有关情况？Could you say something about ----- in your
雅思口语考试临场发挥的一点建议 人们常说台上1分钟，台下十年功。但很多雅思考生虽然平时雅思考试备考复习非常充分，篇篇因为心理素质不够好，导致临场发挥有失水准，结果成绩很不理想。下面就和大家分享雅思口语考试临场发挥的一点建议，来欣赏一下吧。 雅思口语考试临场发挥的一点建议 影响雅思口语(Fluency)流利度的原因多半在于中国雅思考 试心理素质差，表现非常不自信。中国学生在回答为什么害羞不敢与老外交谈时最通常的回答就是：“我怕出错。”常见的症状就是一句话出口前，先想好中文，再在心里把它译成英语，然后再出口，这样即便是说出来的话滴水不漏，语流的连贯性上也大打折扣。口试是雅思口语考试，关键是交际能力。我们不能要求口语和书面语一样毫无差错。相反，如果口语说得像书面语一样四平八稳、准确无误，反而让人觉得不得体。 雅思口语和书面语是两种不同的风格。考生既然进了考场，都是有备而来的。这时的最佳心理状态就是认识到学习语言不可能不出错。要相信人在情急之下的潜能超水平发挥。考官提出问题后，最好能在5秒钟内就开始回答。 先放松后谈考试
因为雅思口语考试现场太过于紧张，导致没听清考官的指示。请注意，一定要听清楚考官的问题，否则，你怎么讲雅思口语尬聊进行到底? 在第一种情况下，考生通常是比较少和外国人接触，有“恐外症”。有个学生就是这样，一进考场就懵了，后来他回忆，其实大部分题目在之前接触过的机经中都有，只是当时太紧张，根本没有听懂。考官还很耐心地给他解释了题目，他都没有把握住机会。可见紧张是如何的误事。如果你也有这种情况，唯一的办法就是多找外国人聊天，克服对高鼻子蓝眼睛的恐惧。 如果是第二种情况，你完全可以要求考官复述一遍题目(Beg you pardon; Will you repeat that, please?, etc。)，或者解释一下(What do you mean by that? etc。)，因为有的题目确实是考生从没考虑过的，提这样的要求是合理的，不会被扣分，因为这也同样是交际的一个方面，没听懂硬扛着或瞎猜，只能被扣分。问清楚问题再答总好过没弄清乱答。 对自己的雅思口语水平要有信心 其实，很多中国考生英语口语水平并不差，就是对自己期望太高。 说话犹豫、经常停顿、不断重复同一个词，是考生容易出现的问题，也是最容易让考官扣分的地方，因为流利程度是最重要
本项考试的时间：7分钟左右 本项考试的形式：每个考生得到相同的文字资料，按照要求对需要解决的问题进行讨论，并最终得出结果。考生在进行考试前有30秒时间阅读文字材料，并且在考试过程中可以参考材料。 实用技巧：将文字材料中的字句进行简化并表达出来。（见范例） 从正反两方面思考，拓宽思路 可适当利用个人意见法与细节提问法 3．两名考生讨论和解决的问题进行。 实用步骤1：一问一答式的讨论（范例1） A提问（一句话）——B回答（一句话），阐述理由（两句话），A附和（一句话），阐述理由（两句话）——一B提问（一句话）——A回答（一句话）,阐述理由（两句话），B附和（一句话），阐述理由（两句话）.——A或B定下决定（一句话）——B或A支持决定（一句话）。 这种方法思路清晰明确，但切忌回答过于简单。 实用步骤2：各自阐述观点的讨论（范例2） A阐述观点（一句话）和理由（两句话）——B对A的观点表态（一句话），阐述自己的观点并阐述理由（两句话）——双方讨论，深入阐述本人观点（A，B各两句话）——定下决定（A，B各一句话）。 这种方法适合对问题的辩论。但考生需注意彼此的交流。 实用技巧（见范例）： A.提问者将文字材料中规定讨论的部分（通常特殊疑问句）改为一般疑问句并进行表述。 B.使用第一人称I或We进行表述，自然进入虚拟的工作环境中。 C.使用工作场合中常用的套话使得交流更加自然。例如：Shall we get down to our business? D.在讨论中表达同意时所用的句型：I think so. / You are right. /That’s quite true. /Definitely. /I have the same view. /I share your concern. /That’s a good point. / No doubt about it. E. 在讨论中表达不同意时所用的句型：That’s true but…. Yes I know but…. I understand but…. I don’t think that I agree with you. I don’t think so. I can’t agree with you. I have some difficulty with your view.

互相讨论： 本部分考试时间约5分钟，以考生之间的双向对话方式进行，要求考生根据所给的商务背景知识和相关提示准备30秒之后进行为时3分钟的讨论，然后考官将根据考生的发挥情况围绕主题分别对考生提问。这个阶段主要测试考生在比较与对比、总结与分析、争论与让步等中的语言表达能力。 1. 应试技巧： （1）了解自己角色 考生拿到卡片后应迅速浏览关于场景的介绍，熟悉自己扮演的角色，并努力在以下的对话中以此角色的立场来思考问题及阐述观点，这样才能保证对话的顺利进行。 （2）理清发言要点 考生拿到卡片后还应根据题目的要求，迅速展开联想，构思出发言的要点。最好按重要性将各要点排序，做到发言过程中逻辑清晰，条理通顺。 （3）控制发言时间 在考试中不能一味地表现自己，太“霸道”，也不能一味沉默，太“谦虚”。要把握分寸，掌握时机，恰当地运用口语表达技巧，自然地接续、打断、插入或附和别人的话茬，完整地表现自己。 （4）与同伴密切合作 在整个谈话中，考生都应遵循“合作”的原则，保持一种友好、礼貌、轻松的氛围，使讨论卓有成效。在对话过程中要注意在自己发言的同时还要给对方创造发言的机会，使讨论
能够活跃自然。在产生尴尬无话题可讲的情况下，双方都应当尽力找到谈话突破口，保持谈话继续进行。 （5）注意肢体语言 肢体语言有助于给考官留下好的印象。时刻保持微笑，认真地倾听同伴的发言，并适当地点头表示同意(但也不可过于频繁)。 2. 考试演示 考题： Effective Time Management Your company has found that ineffective time management is one of the major problem areas throughout the workforce.
