全国公共英语口语等级考试(最新)
1.全国公共英语口语等级考试考试共分4段12级，即：预备级1～3级，初级4～6级，中级7～9级，高级10～12级。
其考试目的在于考核英语听说能力，注重实际交流，是一种在很多方面具有创新的考试方式。
各级考试都实行一对一面试，采用对话的形式，随着级别的升高，对话时间相应增加，从4级开始，考生都需提前自选、准备题目。
据介绍，1～6级考试考官由英方严格培训达标的中方考官担任，而7～12级考试考官则由英方考官担任。
考试成绩由GESE考官根据语音、流畅程度、精确度、词汇量、交际策略等几方面评定，报伦敦三一学院审核，合格者将获得等级证书。
预备级（1～3级）：考生与考官进行5～7分钟双向对话，语言的要求限于各级的谈话话题范围内。
初级（4～6级）：考生与考官进行约10分钟对话，其中约两分钟考生就准备的题目讲述，讲述时可借助自带的实物或图片，随之就讲述的题目进行问答对话。
中级（7～9级）：考生与考官进行约15分钟谈话，考生需讲述事先准备的题目，讲述时可借助自带的实物或图片，考生需就一本书、论文集、杂志等内容进行讲述及讨论。
高级：（10～12级）:考生与考官进行25分钟谈话，对考生有较高的语言要求及与他人交谈的能力。
25分钟内要求考生讲述一篇事先准备的题目、一篇事先准备的长度适中的材料（如书、杂志、论文集等），并与考官进行讨论。
考官还将现场提供一份听力材料，并就其内容及词汇提问。
2.如何提高英语口语1、模仿：怎样提高自己英语口语的有效方式第一步就是要学会模仿，找一些英文原版录音的材料进行对单词、短语、句子等的模仿，也可以找一些英文原版的电影跟着有声有色的模仿，力求自己的语音语调甚至神情语气力求神似。
2、朗读：怎样提高自己英语口语口语能力的第二步是大声朗读。
朗诵其实也相当于是模仿，所也需要自己去找到适合自己的有声素材去进行模仿语音语调。
在进行朗读模仿时，要学会听自己的发音和资料中的有什么地方不同，反复去练习纠正。
3、复述：复述不是背诵，复述是通过自己的语言将你所听到的故事或者所看到的文章描述出来，在摆脱原文文本和组织结构，用自己的理解和思考将故事的内容讲出。

英语12级
英语12级由于世界各国之间的关系越来越紧密，越来越多的中国人开始学习英语。
考虑到英语在国际交流中的重要性，许多人不仅在学校学习英语，而且还加入到英语角和英语俱乐部中，以提高英语口语能力。
然而，在实际学习过程中，许多人会发现英语学习存在某些问题，这些问题影响了他们的学习效果。
本文将讨论英语学习中的一些常见问题，以及如何克服这些问题。
首先，许多人认为英语学习需要大量背单词。
然而，这种方法并不是最有效的。
当我们只是记住了单词的拼写和定义，却不知道如何运用时，这些单词在交流中并不会有实用价值。
因此，为了更好地学习英语，我们应该掌握单词的用法和表达方式。
在学习过程中，可以利用课外阅读、电影和音频等资源，以及日记、简报和口语练习来加强英语单词和表达的应用。
其次，很多人学习英语的过程中没有形成正确的学习心态。
仅仅追求学习成绩的提高，并无法保证学业的长久发展。
学习英语应该是一个长期的过程，需要在每个阶段扎实地掌握语言知识，消化和吸收。
建立这种学习心态只有通过不断的学习、反思和总结才能实现。
另外，很多人因为害怕丢面子而不敢说错英语。
但这种思想往往会阻碍英语学习的进步。
我们应该充分利用每个机会，多加练习英语口语，尽量不要过分担心说得不够充分、不够准确的事情。
学习英语是一个积极的过程，他需要我们能够坚定自信，敢于开口说英语，勇于面对错误，拥有不断提高的信心。
最后，要克服英语学习中的困难问题，我们需要多与外国人沟通交流。
有很多的学习机会可以帮助我们获得这样的体验。
比如，我们可以加入英语角和英语俱乐部，与其他学生交流经验，尝试使用英语在日常生活和游戏中交流。
此外，旅游和留学等活动也是一个在更多情况下使用英语的机会。
这样，我们可以更加深入地感受到语言的实际用途和习惯语言的紧迫性，从而提高我们的英语应用和表达能力。
总之，英语学习是一个积极和长期的过程。
我们应该形成正确的学习心态，消化和吸收语言知识，勇于开口练习英语，积极参加交流活动，并在实践中体验语言的实际意义。

Fire away!Other expressions include 'Go Ahead!', 'I'm all ears.'DOCTOR: OK, first a bit about your medical history. You mentioned that you've had acupuncture before.

BUSINESS ADVISOR: It's important to establish a good relationship with your bank. Do you have a financial advisor?CLIENT: Yes.

The degree program is more in-depth and requires more classes."Leads to" means "results in".JOSH: What kind of educational background do you need to apply for the degree program?RECEPTIONIST: Most of our MBA students have a bachelor's degree and at least 5 years of working experience. You can also say "work experience".JOSH: So admission to the program is automatic provided I meet those criteria?RECEPTIONIST: No, the application requires 3 letters of reference and a personal statement. We usually have over 300 applicants for only 100 openings, so there's quite a bit of competition."Personal statement" is an essay describing yourself and reasons why you want to study at a particular school.JOSH: Wow, I didn't realize that. So if I were to start this fall, when can I reasonably expect to finish the degree program?RECEPTIONIST: That's entirely up to you. Some students finish all the course work in two years. For others it takes five. What's your schedule like?This means "How much available time do you have to study?".JOSH: I could dedicate at least 20 hours a week.RECEPTIONIST: Assuming that you stick to that schedule and pass all your classes, it would probably take you just over two years.。
