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, 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 ideas.A What is important when...?Planning a presentation- Considering the audience- Clear structure-B What is important when...?Changing working companies- Financial rewards- Opportunities in the future-C What is important when...?Criticising staff- Giving them respect- Letting them know the reason-正确答案：I choose Topic B, “What is important when changing working companies?”As to this topic, as far as I am concerned, there are three things to consider. First, I think financial rewards are very important when you plan to move to another company. Companies which could offer competitive salary are definitely more attractive since everyone has to earn his living by working. And usually, companies with high financial rewards are usually famous and big ones. Second, we must consider the career opportunities the company can provide, such aspersonal value system, future benefits and so on. People tend to see the on-hand rewards and neglect the future benefits. However, the latter could really be significant for those who have little working experience. For example, people working as an intern in Microsoft and other World Top 500 can only get a certain amount of salary, but after they get out of there, they may have gained an amazingly increased self-value. Third, I believe the location of the company is another concern when we change jobs, especially in big cities. Nowadays, we may live in one part of a city and work in another part of the city far far away. This could take people too much time. Imagine if you have to spend 3 hours every day on the way, it can be really hard to balance your leisure time and work. And if you can have a job not far from home, you can have more time to learn new things, to have fun with your family or things like that.SECTION 3 DISCUSSION (ABOUT 5 MIN)In this part of the test you are given a discussion topic. You have 30 seconds to look at the prompt card, an example of which is below, and then about 3 minutes to discuss the topic with your partner. After that examiner will ask you more questions related to the topic.3．In this part of the test, you are given a discussion topic. You have 30 seconds to look at the prompt card, an example of which is below, and then about three minutes to discuss the topic with your partner. After that, the examiner will ask you more questions related to the topic. For two candidatesTraining PlanYour company has decided to use an outside agency for language training for the staff.You have been asked to have preliminary discussions with the agency to organise this.Discuss the situation together, and decide: - what information you will need to provide for the agency- what kinds of questions you will need to ask the agency.For three candidatesTraining PlanYour company has decided to use an outside agency for language training for the staff.You have been asked to have preliminary discussions with the agency to organise this.Discuss the situation together, and decide: - what information you will need to provide for the agency- what kinds of questions you will need to ask the agency- what other arrangements would have to be made for the training programme.Follow-on questions- What kind of training do you think a company should provide to the employees?- Will you make the training course selective or compulsory?(Why?)- About the schedule of the course, do you prefer a full-time or a part-time system?(Why?)- What can be the disadvantages of using an outside agency for such training?- How can you evaluate the effect of the training?正确答案：(For three candidates)A: Hey, you know what? Our company is going to invite the Spark English to give the staff a language training course. B: Really, that would be wonderful. Some of the staff really need to improve their English, especially their business English. C: And what information should we offer to Spark English? A: Well, I think we should tell them the numbers of staff going to take this course, and the real English level of our staff. B: That is good, and I believe the information about their characteristics and their working hours is also useful. C: Of course, and whatabout the Spark English? What information should we ask from them? A: Oh, there are millions of questions such as how qualified the teachers are, whether they are professional business English teachers or company staff working as part-time teachers, how long the course is, etc. B: And I want to know the style of their teaching. C: Hey, here I have an idea. Why don’t we arrange a party for the staff and the Spark English teachers? We can make them know each other before the course really starts. B: Wow, that is amazing! I like your idea. In this way, they may make acquaintance with each other and this is a good chance for them to ask questions they would like to know. A: OK. Since we have discussed all about this, let’s get down to our work. I can’t wait to see them. C: Good. I’ll give the Spark English a telephone call to talk about the plan. Follow-on questions- From my point of view, a company should provide the employees with trainings that can improve their professional skills and managerial abilities.- It depends. For those courses that all staff should take, they should be compulsory, while other courses can be selective so that the staff can choose according to their own needs.- For my part, I prefer a part-time system, because a full-time system will affect the daily routine of the staff.- An outside agency may not know so clearly about the needs and characteristics of the employees, which can affect the result of the training.- There are several ways to evaluate the effect of the training: holding professional exams, conducting surveys among the employees and evaluating the effect of the training in the daily work of the staff.。

(0)The Psychology of ManagementIf overflowing in-trays frighten you or solving problems makes you sweat, there's a new range of business books called The Management Guides that you can turn to with confidence. (0)__G__. In addition, they're written in accessible language by Kathy Harman, a chartered occupational psychologist who heads her own London-based consultancy business. She says that the guides are intended for professionals working in small British companies, where thinking about management can be a low priority because of endless lists of other responsibilities.After this initial message to the reader, the following pages contain sections on every aspect of business, from managing your own time and selecting employees to planning ahead for the future.One of the reasons Harman wrote these guides was that she knows not every business is able to invest in training. The difficulty, especially for small businesses, is that, "People are professionals first and foremost and somehowthey are just expected to pick up management skills as they go along." And becoming one, she recognizes, is especially difficult if you're not used to communicating effectively or delegating work.She adds, "It's all very well managing areas that you have control over and you can do all the planning you feel is necessary, but there are always going to be other people out there who do the most unexpected things,"having good, friendly relationships with all their staff and business contacts. "The important thing inmanagement," says Harman, "is the human element."Her advice to managers everywhere is to maintain professionalism at all times. "If you've ever managed anyone," she says, "you'll know that you're not allowed to be fed up because when the staff come to you, they don't want to know about your problems, they want their problems solved."Harman feels confident about making such an analysis because of her years of training as an occupationalpsychologist. "What you find there is that more senior managers have had some kind of psychological training, while in this country most managers get their management psychology second-hand by listening to other managers."The overall message from Harman is a simple one, and it's got nothing to do with technology or databases.the right staff at all levels, you really haven't got a business. People are your principal resource."A And when they do, managers need a variety of strategies to fall back on.B This, of course, is unlikely to be easy, because being an expert in your field doesn't necessarily make you a good manager.C The question that most of them ask is ,"Can we actually afford a management training courses?"D Although this area of study is becoming more acceptable in the business world, Britain is a long way behind the rest of Europe.E It's about creating a working environment that promotes the well-being of everyone, from the post room to the board room.F This is illustrated at the beginning of each guide with the quote, "This book is for those who would like to manage better but are too busy to begin."G They're short, pocket-sized, and very reasonably priced at '2.99 each.Part ThreeQuestions 13-18Read the article below about effective communication and the question on the opposite page.For each question 13-18, mark one letter (A, B, C, or D) on your Answer Sheet for the answer you choose.The importance of good communicationEffective communication is essential for all organizations. It links the activities of the various parts of the organization and ensures that everyone is working toward a common goal. It is also extremely important for motivating employees. Staff need to know how they are getting on, what they are doing right and in which areas they could improve. Working alone can be extremely difficult and it is much easier if someone takes an interest and provides support. Employees need to understand why their job is important and how it contributes to the overall success of the firm. Personal communication should also include target setting. People usually respond wellto goals, provided these are agreed between the manager and subordinate and not imposed.However, firms often have communications problems that can undermine their performance. In many cases, these problems occur because messages are passed on in an inappropriate way. There are, of course, several ways of conveying information to others in the organization. These include speaking to them directly, e-mailing, telephoning or sending a memo. The most appropriate method depends on example, anything that is particularly sensitive or confidential, such as an employee's appraisal, should be done face-to-face.One of the main problems for senior executives is that they do not have the time or resources needed to communicate effectively. In large companies, for example, it is impossible for senior managers to meet and discuss progress with each employee individually. Obviously this task can be delegated but at the cost of creating a gap between senior management and staff. As a result, managers are often forced to use other methods of communication, like memos or notes, even if they know these are not necessarily the most suitable means of passing on messages.The use of technology, such as e-mail, mobile phones and network systems, is speeding up communication immensely. However, this does not mean that more investment in technology automatically proves beneficial: system can become outdated or employees may lack appropriate training. There are many communications tools now available but a firm cannot afford all of them. Even if it could, it does not actually need them all. The potential gains must be weighed up against the costs, and firms should realize that more communication does not necessarily mean better communication.As the number of people involved in an organization increase, the use of written communication rises even faster. Instead of a quick conversation to sort something out numerous messages can be passed backwards and forward. This can lend to a tremendous amount of paperwork and is often less effective than face to face communication. When you are actually talking to someone you can discuss things until you are happy they have understood and feedback is immediate. With written messages, however, you are never quite sure how it will be received. What you think you have said and what the other person thinks you have said can be very different.The amount of written information generated in large organization today can lead to communication overload. So much information is gathered that it gets in the way of making decisions. Take a look at the average manager's desk and you will see the problem -- it is often covered in letter, reports and memos. This overload can lead to inefficiencies. For example, managers may not be able to find the information they want when they need it. Communication is also becoming more difficult with the changes occurring in employment patterns. With more people working part-time and working from home, managing communication is becoming increasingly complex.13. In the first paragraph the writher recommends that communication with staff should include _____.A. some feedback on their job performanceB. an explanation of how company targets have been setC. information on promotion prospects within the companyD. an indication of which duties they can expect assistance with14. According to the writer, the best way of achieving effective communication is to _____.A. adapt the message to suit a particular audienceB. make the content of messages brief and directC. select the most suitable means of conveying a particular messageD. ensure that information is targeted at the appropriate group of people15. What does the writer say about the communication options available to senior manager?A. Sending memo to staff is one of the most efficient methods.B. It is important to find the time to discuss certain matters with staff.C. They should increase the range of options that they use.D.

Aim to limit staff use of certain communication tools.B. Evaluate them in terms of the expenditure involved.C. Select them on the basis of the facilities they offer.D.

BEC商务英语（中级）阅读模拟试卷147(题后含答案及解析)题型有：1. PART ONE 2. PART TWO 3. PART THREE 4. PART FOUR 5. PART FIVEPART ONELook at the statements below and the article about outsourcing risks on the opposite page. Which section(A.B.C or D)does each statement(1-7)refer to? For each statement(1-7), mark one letter(A,B,C or D)on your Answer Sheet. You will need to use some of these letters more than once.Example:0 Outsourcing is risky for a company’s profile. Outsourcing Risks on CompaniesA One of the main risks of outsourcing a task is that it will not be done to the specifications required. By having an outside company perform a task, a company runs the risk that the outside party will not have the same skill set and experience as in-house employees. A drop in quality can result in a drop in sales, as well as harm the company’s reputation among consumers.B Another risk for a company that outsources to foreign countries is bad press. Some companies, particularly large companies, face criticism for hiring workers from other countries, generally at cheaper wages, instead of using American employees. If a company comes under significant attack for outsourcing, then its reputation may suffer, leading to a loss of business. However, smaller companies that use only modest outsourcing stand a low risk of this occurring.C Not all foreign countries have the same economic and political stability enjoyed by the United States. Many countries, particularly those that are not democratic, may change laws that affect the business climate or experience political events—revolutions, wars, sudden changes in leadership—that make it difficult or expensive for outsourcers to complete a task. Therefore, companies that outsource to unstable countries run the risk of an interruption in business.D Many times, outsourcing involves sharing proprietary information with an outside party. This raises the risk that this information will be shared with another party that will try to capitalise on it. For example, the design of a piece of software may be shared by the outsourcing company with a competitor. In some countries, intellectual property laws are not strong. This can result in severe losses for the hiring company.1．Outsourcing may be blamed as the cause of less work opportunities in the U. S.正确答案：B解析：题干意为：在美国，外包被指责是工作机会减少的原因。

Only after the approvals of the Japanese and American governments will the proposal take effect.Part Three. Questions 23-30.As German broad money supply(M3)now seems set to exceed its target for the third year in a row, pressure on the Bundesbank is growing to ignore what Bundesbank president, Mr.Hans Tieteyer, calls an "important intermediate indicator". The Bundesbank itself has been strengthening the hand of critics of monetary targeting by lowering interest rates sharply despite very strong money supply growth in the past six months. Abandoning M3 now as a signpost for monetary policy would be a grave mistake for at least two reasons. First, there is on convincing evidence so far that the long-run relationship between money supply growth and inflation has ceased to exist. Publicly available independent studies , such as those from the Kiel institute of World Economics , have found some evidence for a short-term disturbance in the demand formoney in the wake of German unification. But they have failed to reject the hypothesis that the long-run demand for money has remained stable.Second, excessive money supply growth has reflected the partial monetary financing of government debt ,which ,if continued ,could threaten the purchasing power of the D-Mark.In recent months Bundesbank representatives and other observers have attempted to explain the rampant growth of money supply on the basis of portfolio shifts between money and "monetary capital" which means the longer-term liabilities of the credit institutions. It is excluded from M3.In reality, however, expansion of credit has been driving money supply growth. At the end of 1993, total bank credit amounted to about DM3, 800bn, M3 money to DMI , 900bn, and monetary capital to roughly DMZ , 100bn. With bank credit rising at an annual rate of 10. 3 per cent between the end of 1991 and the end of 1993 ,monetary capital would have to grow substantially above this rate to neutralize the effects of credit growth on M3.In fact, monetary capital GREw at an annual average rate of only 7. 7 pre cent ,so the annual rise of M3 during this period was 8. 7 per cent.If the expansion of bank lending had been used to finance investment in future productive capacity ,there would have been little reason to worry.However, between the second half of 1990 and the second half of 1993, real investment in machinery and equipment in united Germany declined by about 4 per cent. This suggests that most of the credit was used for housing construction and consumption. An important source of the demand for bank credit was the public sector. Between the end of 1989 and mid-1993 ,public debt rose by 52 per cent. By-the end of 1994 ,the rise will be more than 115 percent. The lion's share of this increase was incurred to finance transfers to east Germany. Since the appetite of German domestic savers for government bonds was not sufficient to absorb the `new debt, the government exported part of it by selling bonds abroad ,and allowed the monetization of another part.【。

Read this text about the problem of Barclays Bank.The New LookWhen Sir John Quinton, then chairman of Barclays Bank, was given his marching orders last April, Britain's biggestbank thought it had found the scapegoat for its sudden fall from grace and profits ,Andrew Buxton, the bank's managing director and an offspring of its founding families ,was a pointed chairman and chief executive ,with effect from January1st of next year. It seemed a glorious victory for good business management. Is the problem solve do Certainly not.1. No sooner had Mr. Buxton been appointed chairman and chief executive than bigshareholders and quite a few board members began quietly to question his ability to do both jobs at once. Now ,weeks before he is due to move up ,the questions are louder. Many wish the bank had seized the opportunity LasyApril to separate the two top posts. And privately. Some wonder whether Mr. Buxton is the right man for either one. What started as a thoroughly British Whispering Campaign has assumed much bigger dimensions..2. Mr. Buxton has suffered it all ,but in truth he has no way out. After weeks of talking to shareholders and discussing with his non-executive directors ,he has accepted that Barclays will separate the top jobs sometimes in the future. How7 He says that there has been no formal discussion of it in the boardroom.3.

Opinions differ as to whether this person should be chosen from inside or outside the bank. Several board members believe that there is no ideal candidate inside Barclays.4. Neither shareholders nor non-executive directors want to wait long. If the right candidate can be found, the bankcould combine the announcement of a new appointment with its annual results at the end of March.

Concerning this topic, as far as I can see, three items are listed. For the first place, purpose of the reward system should be the first item to be introduced to the staff. As the employees, staff is always eager for reward for their contribution to the company and what they are worth. If the company fails to give proper reward, staff might subsequently feel not being fairly treated, and therefore frustrate their enthusiasm for their work. So the purpose is very important. Second, types of reward offered can be also important for the staff. Nowadays, people all wish to have their jobs better and better. So the staff must want to know how to get the reward from their company efficiently. So you should list the specific items for the staff. Take the full attendance reward for example, it means mat the staff will be given this reward if the staff no absent in one month. Third, the procedure of thisreward system can be useful to the staff. The staff should have the right to know the specific steps of the reward system. For example, who will be the supervisor? And how to equally choose? I choose topic B—what is important when aiming to reach new markets. As to this topic, as far as I am concerned, there are 3 things to consider. First, I think the marketing research is always basic measurement the company should take, before the company gets into new the market. With the help of marketing research, you can learn about the needs of the consumer. No organization can survive for long without meeting consumer needs. Second, advertising is the most useful way to propagandize a company’s products and make them known to the public. Advertising is also the way to get the products orientated. The good orientation of the product can contribute to the future development of this product. Third, the high quality of the product is the substantial request. It is me assurance of the wider exploitation. It is the presupposition for consumers’buying. I choose topic C —what is important when selecting a hotel for travelling on business. As for this topic, there are three aspects to mention here. In the first place, location is the preferential point. You had better choose a hotel near your office location, so that it is convenient for your activities. If not, you can choose a hotel with convenient transportation. Both are beneficial to your business. Then facilities provided are also an indispensable point to consider. For the business, you should choose the hotel, equipped with necessary facilities, like internet, telephone, meeting room and so on. What’s more, the entertainment facilities should also be prepared for the consumers to relax themselves after heavy business work. Last but not the least, you should also choose the hotel of proper price. The hotel with high cost performance is the best choice for you. To sum up, location, facilities provided and price are all that should be considered when selecting a hotel for travelling on business.解析：本题的三个话题分别是话题A：在介绍福利体系时，什么是重要的；话题B：为了扩展新市场，什么是重要的；话题C：为商务旅游选宾馆时，什么是重要的。
