2020年商务英语高级口试试题及答案(卷一)PART ONE: INTERVIEW(1) Do you think everybody working in business today should have a range of computer skills?(Why?/Why not?)你认为如今从事商务需要一系列电脑技能吗?(为什么?)Sure. Most jobs today require a working knowledge of certain computer skills. Employers seek and reward employees with the skills and knowledge.(2) What are some basic computer skills for an office staff?办公室职员需要什么样的基本电脑技能?They may include word pro; sending E-mail; using a spreadsheet to create a graph and paste it into a report; adding and editing data in a database, etc.(3) Will methods of communication change or not in the future?(Why?/Why not?)未来人们的沟通方式会改变吗?(为什么?)Sure, there will be some changes. With computers getting more and more popular, more and more people will use E-mail as a method of communication. But I don’t think telephone will be out of use. The two methods of communication will co-exist.(4) What are the effects that computers have had on people’s working lives?/What are the effects of new technologies on office life?电脑对人们的工作生活会产生什么影响?/新科技对人们的办公生活会产生什么影响?I think people are being pushed into a different world—a keyboard world. Almost everything is done on the computer and it helps raise efficiency.PART TWO: MINI-PRESENTATIONWhat is important when…?Conducting computer training 举办电脑培训需考虑哪些要点?l External experts 外聘专家l Participants 参加人员lIt’s important to have external experts when conducting computer training. Some people may think that smart computer users in the company will be more cost-effective, but experts from an IT consultancy are obviously more professional and the training may achieve better results.As for participants, I think companies should get as many of their people as possible to participate in computer training, not only those currently involved in the use of computers, but also those who seem to have nothing to do with computers at the moment. With computers becoming more and more popular, computer skills will soon become something very basic for survival in a workplace.In addition, equipping some staff members who are skillful in computers as on-site mentors is also important. They are there not only for tech support, but also for sharing the triumphs and breakthroughs with their colleagues to get them better motivated.举办电脑培训的时候外聘专家是很重要的。
BEC商务英语(初级)口语练习试卷4(题后含答案及解析)题型有:1. INTERVIEW 2. MINI PRESENTATIONSSECTION 1 INTERVIEW (ABOUT 3 MIN)1.In this part of the test you are asked to give a short talk on a business topi C.You have to choose one of thetopics from the two below and then talk for about one minute. You have one minute to prepare your ideas. A WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN? CHOOSING A BUSINESS COURSE INSTRUCTORS SUBJECTS COVERED RELEV ANCE TO THE PRESENT JOB B WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN? GIVING A PRESENTATION TOPIC TYPE OF AUDIENCE CONTROL OF RHYTHM正确答案:A: Personally speaking, three things are important when choosing a business course. The first is the instructors. If there are excellent instructors giving this course, it will be attractive for sure. Everybody wants to learn from good tutors after all. Secondly, if the training course covers a wide range of subjects, it will be instructive for the trainees in different aspects. The more subjects are covered, the more knowledge we will acquire. Thirdly, I will select a training course, which is relevant to my present job.My work demands fresh minds and new skills. It couldn’t be better if I got some detailed guidance to my job from this course. B: The topic of the presentation is very important. If we choose a boring topic to talk about, we’re facing a disastrous outcome. As long as you know what stuff the audience may hate to hear, never mention it. In order to choose the ideal topic, you should mark off your audience. A qualified presenter is good at marking off different types of audience from their occupations and social status. Then he picks up his method accordingly in hopes of positive reactions. Now you have chosen an interesting topic and you can mark off your audience, but you are not a master yet before you can harness the rhythm at will. Don’t babble to show off your eloquence. Pause from now and then, allowing your argument to sink in. 涉及知识点:口语SECTION 2 MINI PRESENTATIONS (ABOUT 6 MIN)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 1 minute. You have 1 minute to prepare your ideas.2.In this part of the test the examiner reads out a scenario and gives you some prompt material in the form of pictures or words. You have 30 seconds to look at the prompt card, an example of which is below,and then about two minutes to discuss the scenario with your partner. After that the examiner will ask you more questions related to the topic.For two or three candidates Scenario I’mgoing to describe a situation. Your company is going to hold a business reception and you are in charge of organizing it. Talk together about the topics you could include when you hold a business reception, and decide which three things are the most important. Here are some ideas to help you. Prompt materials Follow-on questions What qualities should the hosts and hostess have? Do you think food is important in the reception?(Why?/Why not?) What’s the role of entertainment? Do you think souvenirs are necessary?(Why?/Why not?) Would you introduce the guests?(Why?/Why not?)正确答案:A: I think the hosts are very important when holding a business reception. Although beautiful girls and handsome boys are pleasant, maybe they’re lack of experience. What we need for host and hostess are seasoned grown-ups who can handle complicated situations. B: I agree with you. But don’t forget food. We Chinese people are famous for our hospitalities. We usually give grand banquet to entertain distinguished guests. Chinese cuisine is delicious and healthy, so it’s no problem to give visitors a happy surprise. A: Well, there should also be entertainment. Our guests need something to please their eyes and ears, too. To liven things up, we should call up a drove of singers, dancers, and even acrobats, if possible, to offer them a real treat. B: You are right. How about souvenirs? People would be happy when they receive gifts. We can take advantage of this psychology to win their good feeling. By handing out unique souvenirs, our company could be better remembered. A: Last but not the least, introductions to the guests. People in a reception should not only say hello to their acquaintances, but also make new friends. The way of self-introduction has rather limited effect, however, at this moment, the host and hostess should be honored if they arrange contacts between strangers naturally. Follow-on questions Hosts and hostess should be seasoned grown-ups who can handle complicated situation. Yes, I think so. Chinese food is delicious and healthy, and we Chinese pay a lot of attention to food, even foreign guests like Chinese food very much. A great meal can give guests a happy surprise. Entertainment can please our guests’eyes and ears, and make the reception much more interesting. I think souvenirs are necessary. People would be happy when they receive gifts. By handing out unique souvenirs, our company could be better remembered. Of course. I would introduce the guests. Making new friends is one of the most important purposes for people to attend a reception. The host and hostess should be honored if they arrange contacts betweenstrangers naturally. 涉及知识点:口语。

You have 1 minute to prepare your ideas.1.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 two below and then talk for about one minute. You have one minute to prepare your ideas.A: What is important when... ?Choosing a teacher for business English courseexperience of teachingexperience of working in a companytuitionB: What is important when…?Selling in a hard market quality of the productrelationshipservice 正确答案:A.In my perspective, the experience as a teacher is fundamental, and it is the only way to make the teaching process more effective. The same thing applies to the teaching of business English. The teacher with teaching experience knows the best way to deliver the knowledge and knows how to deal with students. Therefore, they can communicate with the students more skillfully and thus make the learning process more fruitful.However, at the same time, working experience in a company is essential to the teaching of business English. A teacher with working experience can draw upon some personal examples about real life business in the class, and therefore make teaching more interesting and practical. The knowledge is taught in a vivid way, and also the teacher can provide useful advices for the students’future career. A teacher with both teaching and working experience will be the best. In addition, such a teacher who charges a comparatively low tuition of course will be even better.B.Quality is the life of the company. It is the product that consumers always pay attention to. Without quality products, no matter how strong the consumer relationship is or how good the service it provides, the company will lose in a hard market. The product is the most important. A good product itself is the best advertisement.On the other hand, a good relationship with clients and a good service will absolutely add score for the company. They are good ways for the company |o establish consumer loyalty. Therefore, all the three factors mentioned above are inseparable with the success of a company.SECTION 3 DISCUSSION (ABOUT 5 MIN)In this part of the test you are given a discussion 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 ideas.A Staff recruitment:the importance of building an effective recruitment strategy B Marketing: the importance of finding and keeping the client base C Staff management: how to make a staff management plan正确答案:A Staff recruitment: the importance of building an effective recruitment strategy Yeah, it’s really essential for companies to set up effective hiring strategies. Only in this way can you recruit your ideal employees. It seems to me that companies should follow some procedures when it comes to hiring. Firstly, trie companies should ensure that they have an updated set of information of the employee. Then they should make sure that they promote honesty with employees. Lastly, an effective screening process will ensure that the company is hiring a competent and reliable people.B Marketing; the importance of finding and keeping the client base I do think it’s vital for companies to find customers, especially for new start-up or small businesses. What’s even more important, though, is finding ways to keep them there. In my opinion, the most successful small businesses are the ones that master the art of getting and keeping customers. Only keeping the client base can businesses survive and on the basis, develop for long.C Staff management: how to make a staff management plan A good staff management plan ensures the effectiveness and even the success of a company. To some extent, staff management means “getting things done by other people”. Here I want to emphasise one point that, be precise in your staff management plan. Do not forget to include staff policies and responsibilities in the plan. They are needed to make the business successful. You will need discipline in your workers. Make the policies clear to all. This will ensure that your staff will not have a lax attitude at the workplace.SECTION 3 DISCUSSION (ABOUT 5 MIN)In this part of the test you are given a discussion topic.

You have to choose one of the topics from the three below and then talk for about 1 minute. You have 1 minute to prepare your ideSECTION 1 INTERVIEW (ABOUT 3 MIN)1.Task Sheet for Candidate A Task Sheet 1 A: The management: the importance of corporate culture B: Customer relations: how to get a customer coming back for more C: Employee relations; how to tell the boss be is wrong Task Sheet for Candidate B Task Sheet 2 A: Recruitment; how to learn most about a job candidate. B: Employee relations; how to fire a family member. C: Leadership training: how to make a good boss.正确答案:Interviewer: Now, I will give each of you three topics. You will have to choose one from them, prepare for it in one minute and talk about it for one minute. OK? Yang Yon, here are your topics. And here are yours, Yon Ming. You can make notes on the paper I gave you during yo~ preparation. All right. Yang Yon, which topic are you going to talk about? Yang Yan: I’d like to talk about B, Customer Relations.Interviewer: OK. You have one minute to talk. Yon Ming and I will listen to you. Yon Ming, after Yang Yan’s talk, you have to ask her a question. Now, Yang Yan, you may start. I’ll ! stop you at the end of one minute.Yang Yon: Customer relations are very important to a company. Since if we have very good customer relations, the customers will come hack and buy more. In my opinion, one effective way of keeping good customer relations is to get into the habit of consistently updating customer information. At every customer touch point, try to learn a little more or verify our existing information. For instance, ask why the customer is buying the larger size rather than the small one. Why choose blue rather than gray? Has he or she been promoted, with a new title and responsibilities? Note any responses to marketing efforts. Keep adding details and making sure the customer profile is up-to-date. We can rely on smart, centralized customer information; we can send specialized offerings to selected customer segments. Use Publisher 2003 to create flyers, postcards or other mailings that send news of customized offers. En, and..Interviewer: Thank you. It’s time. Now, Yan Ming, what is the question you’d like to ask Yang Yon?Yon Ming: Yang Yon, what kind of customer information should you know?Yang Yon: Well, we need to learn details about their habits, profiles, and preferences before we can characterize them.Interviewer: OK. Now, Yon Ming, it’s your turn. Which topic have you chosen, please?Yon Ming: RecruitmentInterviewer: OK. You have one minute to talk. Yang Yon and I will listen to you. Yang Yon, after Yan Ming’s talk, you have to ask him a question. Now, Yan Ming, you may start. I’ll stop you at the end of one minute.Yon Ming: Learning most about a job candidate isvery important. Several things are very important to us. Taking the rime to prepare our interview questions in advance will help pose similar questions to different candidates. Then in addition to the conventional methods of reviewing an applicant’s job history and skills, we should ask questions that give the applicant a chance to explain how they react to specific job situations. Moreover, asking opon-ended follow-ups instead of allowing for a simple one-word answer, give applicants the chance to communicate useful information about themselves. At last, it’s very important to ask exactly how they would do something that is part of the job instead of simply looking at a resume that lists a candidate% areas of experience.Interviewer: Thank you. Time is up. Now, Yang Yan, what is the question you’d like to ask Yan Ming?Yang Yan: Among all the aspects that you’ve mentioned, which one do you think you can judge whether this person is suitable or not?Yan Ming: I think the last one. It’s a kind of knowing their practical ability and will impress me most,Interviewer: Thank you.SECTION 2 MINI PRESENTATIONS (ABOUT 6 MIN)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 1 minute. You have 1 minute to prepare your ideas.2.Sale Reduction Your company is an international company which produces electronic productS. Your company’s sales have reduced recently and this situation has lasted for a period of time. You have been asked to submit your ideas on how to increase your company’s sales. Discuss, and decide together:?What problems does the company have which led to such sales reduction??What can be done to increase the sales?正确答案:Interviewer: Well, Song Li and Hou Llang, the last part of this speaking test is a discussion task. Your discussion topic is on this task card. You have about 30 seconds to read it carefully. After you have read the task, you will have a discussion on the given topic. Your discussion time is around three minutes. OK? Now read your task card. Well, can you start your discussion now? I’m going to listen to you and then ask you to stop at the end of three minutes.Hou Liang: Well, I think several problems might lead to our company’s sales reduction. The electronic market becomes more mature and the competition is more drastic. Japanese manufactures, and the U.S. and the German. companies are really competitive which hurt our industries. Many electronic companies’sales begin to reduce. Such environmental impact may be one reason for our sales reduction.Song Li: En, I agree with you. Since our company is internationalized and the global environment of business is very important, it affects all the aspects of our company. The number one global environmental change is the growth of international competition and the opening of free trade among nations.Hou Liang: Yes, in such a serious competition, keeping the sales increasing is not a very easy thing. I think high-quality goods are very important. Japanese manufacturers like Honda andSony won much of the market for automobiles, videocassette recorders, TV sets, and other products by offering global consumers better-quality products than many other countries.Song Li: Better quality is, no doubt, a crucial problem for our sales. Meanwhile, I think another important problem we have is customer service. We don’t have a very complete customer services system. We don’t keep in touch with our customers in time and ask for their feedbacks. So we don’t know whether our products are suitable and good for them.Hou Liang: That’s quite right. Since the first aspect of the definition of quality is meeting the requirements of our customers, both inside and outside the organization. If we don’t have a very complete customer services system and don’t keep in touch with our customers, we really don’t know whether our products meet their requirements or not.Song Li: Right, so after finding those main problems, we should begin to think over what we should do next. I think we can analyze some advanced quality methods and skills which are adopted by many competitive companies. Since global consumers will fast become accustomed to such high quality products.Hou Liang: Good idea. And we should complete our customer services system. We can learn details about their preferences and construct their own files.Song Li: Right, it’s like a database. But we should make it easily accessed and easily manipulated by the staff.Interviewer: Have you had any experience of such a good customer services system?Hou Liang: Yes. I experienced such a good services system in a small company rather than a big one. That company gave me a questionnaire to do when I first bought their products. They always send me some introductions to their new products according to my preferences and after I bought, they always phoned me to ask for feedback.Song Li: Me, too. I got very good services from a middle sized company and they always ask for the degree of my satisfaction and compensate for any defects in time.Interviewer: How important are such experiences to you?Song Li: Actually, it makes me like to buy their products very much. As long ss they have the prod- ucts I need, I always buy from that company.Hou Liang: I like to buy things from that company. Sometimes, when I need something, I phoned that company directly.Interviewer: Thank you, Song Li and Hou Liang.。

Take a factor as example, and say why it can influence price.Exchange Rate / Taxes / Labor cost / Raw material cost / Shipping cost / Demand and Supply Purchasing Power , etc.Availability of raw materials can greatly influence the prices.For example, water in our country is too much, so the price of water in our country is very low.But in some African countries, water is very poor.So the price of water is as high as the price of oil in our country.9.What is unique sellingpoint?
