商务英语考试是有口语部分的,因为商务英语是非常重视实用性的,如果拿到了证书,却不会说,证书的意义也就失去了。今天我们为大家整理了BEC中级考试技巧口语篇,一起来看一下吧。

BEC中级考试技巧口语篇

口语考试分为三部分,分别为

第一部分:对话

第二部分:简短发言

第三部分:讨论

第一部分:对话

在这一部分中,考官向每个考生轮流提问。首先是询问个人情况或工作、学习情况,考生作答后,再提问一些商务性的问题,通常有4个问题,前2个问题两个考生相同,后2个不同。不过这些话题一般都是比较简单、浅显的,而且考官提问的问句大部分都是简单句。

应试指南

①考生应注重外表,不能邋里邋遢,油头满面的;另外进入考场后,考生应当充满自信,自然大方地向考官问候致意。大家记得留给考官良好的第一印象很重要,很重要很重要。

②为了避免在考试时因过分紧张而导致发挥失常,考生平时要试着多练练紧张时让自己放松的能力,这对于克服进入考场后突然的紧张情绪很有帮助。

③进入考场后要尽快熟悉考官的语音语调及语速,以免由于误听导致反应错误。

④当面对考官的提问或是同伴的问题,自己未听清时,不可盲目作答,一定要问清楚问题再答题,否则答非所问会使你丢掉分数。

⑤有些问题比较简单,你完全可以背出来答案,但是,切记不要那样做,一定要自然地把答案说出来,要有适当的犹豫和口语表达特有的语言衔接。⑥当考官与另一位考生对话时,千万不要插言打断,你要做的就是在一旁静静听着。

⑦在回答考官问题时,注意使用句法结构完整的句子回答,最好跟上一句简单的情感描述性语言或原因,不要简单回答“是”或“不是”(毕竟是你在进行口语考试,别把考官逼急了)。

⑧有时候考官会问一个其他的问题,如你的爱好,这时候,你就要选择熟悉的话题来回答,不然很难回答他追问的下一个问题(这就很尴尬,有木有)。

第二部分:简短发言

在这部分考试中,考官会同时给两名考生一张不同的试题卡和铅笔、白纸,试题卡上有3个与商务有关的话题,考生任选一题作答,在准备过程中可以将发言提纲写在白纸上。一分钟后,一个考生做一分钟的演讲,另一名则需要对其提一至两个问题,然后该考生作答,到另一名考生发表演讲时也是如此。这部分话题涉及的范围比较广,包括广告、职业规划、沟通、客户关系、金融财务、健康和安全、人事,生产,运输等管理、市场营销、招聘、销售、技术、培训、商务旅行等等。

应试指南 ①拿到试题卡后,以最快的速度阅读完3个话题,选定一个自己最熟悉、最有把握的问题作为演讲主题,然后准备演讲内容,这个过程不能超过10秒钟。

②要清楚理解题目的意思,否则会导致考生思路定向偏离题目要求的方向。

③陈述观点时尽量使用合理的语言转接词汇,以使观点具有逻辑性。

④记住任何口语考试都不是背诵课文,要保持一个适中的语调和语音。

⑤在演讲时尽量不要保持一分钟或超过一分钟,这个会有点难度,所以在平时训练时就要注重对时间的把控。

⑥选题后,集中精力构思演讲的提纲,并用铅笔在纸上快速记录关键词。在想的时候应直接用英语思考,这样既可以节省时间,还能使你更容易记住这一思路。

⑦在同伴演讲时,要带有目的、认真地去听,即使不是每句话都能听清 就所听到的内容进行提问就可以了。

⑧回答同伴问题时,首先要听懂问题,没听清可以大胆请他重复一遍,然后给出简明扼要的答案。

第三部分:讨论

这部分由两名考生合作完成,考官发给考生有同一主题的试题卡,以及与之相关联的两三个问题。考生各有半分钟的准备时间,但是双方不能相互交谈。随后,就问题进行3分钟的对话,目的是讨论并决定这些问题。

应试指南①要从题干情景出发,围绕提示中的问题进行讨论,一旦发现对方出现偏题、跑题现象时,要毫不犹豫地及时打断他。②在讨论时,要使思路的组织与观点衔接起来,即每抛出一个观点,两个人都要配合着说出这个观点的支撑句,然后再抛出下一个观点和相应的支撑句。③考生要快速让自己进入“角色”。④说话时语音、语调一定要清晰、自然、语速要适中。⑤以双赢为目的,不能“一边倒”。当同伴言语较多而不给你发话机会时,要果断打断他,反之,他很少接口时,你不能一味地表现自己,而要运用一些疑问句启发、引导他参与到你的思路中来。⑥合理分配时间,不要在一个问题上周旋过久,而忽略其他的问题,这样会被扣分。⑦若讨论时间还没结束,你们已经讨论完那些问题了,可以把前面的重要观点总结性地重述一遍,不能傻傻地坐在那等待时间结束。

ialogue one

M: Can you have the briefs from the Anderson firm's lawyer on my desk by tomorrow morning. There are quite a few very time sensitive matters with this case. I'm afraid I can't wait any longer.

F: Getting those Anderson briefs has been harder than you can imagine. I have tried to contact their lawyer many times. But every time I call, his secretary says he’s in a meeting or out of the office or away on business. I am beginning to think he is trying to avoid me.

M: That's highly possible. He knows if we miss our filing deadline, we don’t stand a chance to compete against them for the bid. Try to get a hold of him again. Give him a call and see if he can fax them first thing.

F: What if I can't speak to him directly?

M: Ask his secretary to fax them. Its the same thing. Have them faxed over with a copy also faxed to Martin’s office.

F: How do I find Martin’s fax number? Is he in your rollerdesk?

M: No, but you can also call their office and ask the secretary to give you their fax number. I’ll email you their office number later today.

F: Ok, I'll get on it first thing.

M: Be sure you do, I need those briefs ASAP

Dialogue two

M:Did you put this morning's faxes on my desk?I'm waiting for some urgent faxes from headquaters,I'm pretty sure they came in last night.

F:Evething that came in the office fax machine last night is all on your desk,but I noticed that some of faxes came through pretty blurred,maybe you take a look at them,if the copy is unreadble,I'll call then and ask them to refax.

M:Yeah,you're going to have to call them and get them to be refax. These copies are so dark. I can't make out any of the words.

F:What about that one?

M:This one?This one is so light and I can barely read it. How can that be?

F:You know, I think the fax machine is out of toner. I can change the toner cartridge. That should solve the problem.

M:Yes,but this one will have to be refaxed as well. And look, there's about 3 pages missing. It looks like the fax machine ate half of my important faxes,and ones that made it through are so blurred or too light. They are unreadable.

F:I guess the fax machine is out of paper too. Don't worry,I'll have someone look at it this afternoon,and in the meantime,I'll have your documents refaxed to our other fax machine.
