2019年BEC商务英语初级备考模拟练习试题及答案三Read the following extract from a book on management and the questions on the opposite page .For each question 15– 20,mark one letter (A, B, C or D ) on your Answer Sheet for the answer you choose .In the last few years, managers throughout industry have seen more changes than many of them could have expected tosee in their entire working lives having to communicate information which often leads to feelings of insecurity has become a key activity. From being regarded as relatively unimportant in many companies , management employee communication has become a central corporate need.Concordia International provides a good example of a company that has adjusted well to the changing needs for communication . since 1995 , Concordia has been turnedinside-out and upside-down, to ensure that it is a marketing–led, customer-responsive business, one that looks outwardsat customers and competitors, rather than inwards at its own processes and the way things were done in the past. In thelast eight years, Concordia has reduced its workforce by more than 80.000 people - or 35% -on a voluntary basis, withfurther downsizing anticipated.From being an engineering company, Concordia is now remaking itself as a service company. The ro le of employee communication in such a context is to build people’s self-confidence, to persuade them that, although it is inevitablethat the changes will go ahead, they also bring with them new opportunities for employees. However, this is not an easytask. People tend to be skeptical of these claims and to feel that they are losing touch with the company they have workedfor over many years. This is understandable, since many ofthe old certainties are being swept away , including the core activities of the company they work for. Above all , theyhave had to face up to the fact that they no longer have ajob for life.Research indicates that people respond to thispredicament in a variety of ways. The bulk of employees fall into two main categories in terms of their response to thenew situation:on the one hand there are the “ pragmatists” and on the other “ the highly anxious” the former see their job as a means to an end and have a relatively short-term perspective, with strong loyalty to their local term , rather than the company as a whole . the second category, usuallythe majority, may respond to threatened changes with afeeling of having been let down, and even feel anger at the company for what they see as changing the terms of their employment.The employee communication process needs to be capableof accurately directing its messages at a variety of employee groups and departments within the workforce . this is why middle managers and line managers .are so key to communication. They are the people whoknow about the full rage of concerns among the workforce. The problem in the past was that this crucial area was often the responsibility of a separate, relatively isolated unit.Concordia puts responsibility for communication firmly online managers. All their research points to the same conclusion: people prefer to get their information face-to-face from their line managers. That is the key relationship and where arguments and hearts and minds –are lost.The general rule in company communication is to tell employees as much as you can as soon as you can. If youcan’t provide details, then at least put the news in context and commit yourself to providing greater detail when it becomes available another rule of company communication is that there must be a fit between what the company is telling its employees and what it is telling its shareholders.15: in the last eight years, Concordia has .A made over 80.000 employees reduncdant.B completed a period of downsizing.C reduced its workforce of 80.000 by 35%.D given 35% of departing employees voluntary redundancy.16 from Concordia’s point of view, the role of communication is to .A win employee support before going ahead with the changes.B change the company’s core activities.C emphasise the positive aspects of the changes.D explain the need for the changes.17 what does research show about most employees’ response to change?A they expect it to have a bad effect on the company.B they feel completely powerless.C they become less loyal.D they fell they have been treated unfairly.18 Concordia’s communication process mainly relies on.A printed communication.B departmental heads.C personal communication.D a separate, specialized unit.19 According to the writer, what is theguiding ;principle about giving information within an organization?A Never make promises about future developments.B Give people an overall view at the earliest possible stage .C always include plenty of hard information .D Hold back until all the details can be provided .20 which of the following would be the most suitable title for the article?A employee attitudes to company communication .B making company communication more effective .C Researching company commmucation .D Making employees feel less powerless .参考答案: 15 A 16-20 CDCBB.。

2019年商务英语(BEC)考前初级模拟试题及答案(5)A friend of mine was fond of drawing horse. He drew the horses very well,but he always began the tail. Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse, that is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference whether the artist begins at the head or the tailor the belly(肚子) or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. And most great artists who really knowtheir business do not follow other people’s rule.They make their own rules. Every one of them does his work in a way peculiar(奇特的) to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he finds it more easy to work in that way.Now the very same thing is true to literature(文学). And the question, "How shall I begin?" only means that you wantto begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is, you are not yet experienced(有经验的) enough to trust to your own powers. When you become more experienced you willnever ask the question, and I think that you will often begin at the tail --that is to say, you will write the end of the story before you have even thought of the beginning.1. A friend of the writer’s drew the horses ____.A. very wellB. in the way of western ruleC. in the way of his own ruleD. all of the above2. The writer was surprised because ____.A. the artist began to draw at the head of the horseB. the artist began to draw at the tail of the horseC. the artist made his own ruleD. the artist did not follow other people’s rule3. You are not yet experienced because ____.A. you don’t know where to beginB. you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tailC. you always asked questionD. you do not trust to your own powers4. When you become more experienced you will ____.A. never ask questionB. often begin at the tailC. should write the end of the storyD. should think of the beginning5. The topic of the passage is ______.A. How to draw a horseB. How to write a storyC. How to make your own rulesD. Trust to your own powers 参考答案: CDDCD。

2019年商务英语BEC初级模拟试题及答案Read the text about career-planning services.Choose the best sentence from the opposite page to fill each of the gaps .For each gap 9– 14, mark one letter (A-H) on your Answer Sheet .Do not use any letter more than once .There is an example at the beginning .(0)Your Career Path Can Lead You AnywhereWe used to be advised to plan our careers. We were told to make a plan during the later stages of our education and continue with it through our working lives.(0)_____ some people still see careers in this way. However, to pursue a single option for life has always been unrealistic.Planning for a single career assumes that we set out with a full understanding of our likes and dislikes and the employment opportunities open to us. (9)____ For most people this degree of certainty about the future does not exist.Our initial choice of career path and employer is often based on inadequate knowledge and false perceptions. But with age and experience, we develop new interests and aptitudes and our priorities alter. The structure of the employment market and, indeed of employment itself, is subject to change as both new technologies and new work systems are introduced (10) _____ We must face the uncertainties of a portfolio career.It is clear from the recent past that we cannot foresee the changes which will affect our working lives. The pace of change is accelerating , as a result of which traditional career plans will be of very limited use. (11)_____ They will need updating to reflect changes in our own interests as well as in the external work environment. Flexible workers already account for about half the workforce. (12)______ We arelikely to face periods as contract workers, self-employed freelances, consultants, temps or part-timers.Many employers encourage staff to write a personal development development (PDP) (13)_____ Although some people use it only to review the skills needed for their job, a PDP could be the nucleus of wider career plan –setting out alternative long-term learning needs and a plan of self-development.A report issued by the Institute of Employment Studies advises people to enhance their employability by moving from traditional technical skills towards the attainment of a range of transferable skills. (14)_____ Instead, special schemes should be established to encourage people to examine their effectiveness and to consider a wider range of needs.0 A B C D E F G HA This dual effect means that the relationship between employers and workers has evolved to such and extent that we can no longer expect a long-term relationship with one employer.B. It carries an implicit assumption that we ourselves, and the jobs we enter, will change little during our working lives.C. This growth suggests that a career plan should not be expressed only in terms of full-time employment but should make provision for the possibility of becoming one of the.D this is a summary of one’s personal learning needs and an action plan to meet them.E Consequently, they must now accommodate a number of objectives and enable us to prepare for each on a contingency basis.F However, it warns that employers often identifytraining needs through formal appraisals, which take too narrow a view of development.G . Such a freelance of consultant would be constantly in demand.H We were expected to work towards that one clear goal and to consider a career change as a bad thing.参考答案:9 B 10 A 11E 12C 13D 14F9.本段是说在职业生涯中设立一个单独的目标的影响。
