Yes I know but…. I understand but….I don’t think that I agree with you. I don’t think so. I can’t agree with you. I have some difficulty with your view.Attending Trade FairsYour company has been invited to take part in a trade fair, which will take place during the busiest time of the year. Y ou have been asked to decide whether staff should be sent to this trade fair.Discuss and decide together:*what the advantages and disadvantages are of attending trade fairs*which members of staff would most usefully represent a company at a trade fairModel Answer 1:A: You know our company has been invited to this year’s Guangzhou Trade Fair in July.

I’ll let our boss know our decision this afternoon.Model Answers2:A: You know our company has been invited to this year’s Guangzhou Trade Fair in July. But July is our busiest time. So we have to decide whether to send our staff to attend this fair.B: I think we should send our staff because…A: To be frank, I don’t agree with you…B: But the fact is we can benefit much more from sending our staff to the fair than keeping them at work. You know…A: Ok, maybe you are right.B: Let’s move to the next agenda. Which members of staff should our company send?A: …B: I agree with you. …A: Ok. Let’s make this decision.B: Ok. I’ll let our boss know our decision this afternoon.Entertaining Foreign ClientsYour company is entertaining a group of foreign clients for three days, including one non-working day.You have been asked to plan a programme for the visit.Discuss the situation together, and decide:●What kinds of activities would be suitable for the visit●What information it would be useful to know about the clients before finalizing theprogrammeInterlocutor: [Select one or more of the following questions as appropriate, to redress any imbalance or to broaden the discussion.]●What kinds of arrangements need to be made before foreign visitors arrive? (Why?)●Are there any disadvantages for a company in having a visit from foreign clients? (Why /Why not?)●Where would you take foreign visitors in your home town? (Why?)●Would you enjoy looking after business visitors for a few days? (Why / Why not?)●What problem might there be when socializing with foreign business people? (Why?)●What are the long-term benefits of establishing personal contacts with foreign clients? Thank you. That is the end of the speaking test.DiscussionCandidate A: It is the first time for our company to attend a trade fair in Paris. So we have to do a lot of preparations before we set off. Do you think so?Candidate B: I’m of exactly the same idea. Firstly, I think we must arrange an appropriate schedule. For example, we should arrive a day earlier to give us time to adjust and acclimatize适应环境、水土.Candidate A: I agree entirely. As we know, travel fatigue, climatic changes, jet lag时差, foreign food, etc. will all have great effect on us.Candidate B: Yes. And then we should book air tickets and reserve accommodations in advance. Candidate A: Yes. I think we should contact the travel agent because it can offer variety of choices and discount.Candidate B: That’s just what I was thinking. Then, we must remind every participant that cultural differences can cause a lot of misunderstandings and even break a deal. So they should learn more about French culture.Candidate A: Can you put things into the perspective?Candidate B: For instance, shaking hands with everyone present, inviting your customers to lunch rather than dinner, avoiding talking business over the main course, etc. are all basic business customs that our participants should bear in mind.Candidate A: I go along with you about that. I think we can invite French people to give every participant lecture to help them familiarize with French culture.Candidate B: Ok, that’s agreed. I’ll present our ideas to the board of directors. Nice talking with you.Candidate A: Our company is organizing a press conference to launch our latest model. We must make careful planning and considerate arrangements to ensure the most satisfying outcome. Candidate B: True enough. I think the first thing we should take into consideration is the people we shall invite to the press conference. What are your views on this?Candidate A: As I see it, we should target most important motoring magazines, national papers, major regional papers and freelance journalists, etc.Candidate B: That’s a good point. When the public reads positive things in their favorite magazine or newspaper, they are the journalists’own comments and therefore much more powerful than advertising because they aren’t influenced by the organization.Candidate A: Yes. So, our goal is to communicate the quality and image of our cars to the motoring press.Candidate B: Then, how about the information needed in the press conference. Would you comment on this point?Candidate A: I think we should make sure that press information packs are accessible to everyone present.Candidate B: I wonder if you could explain it in more detail.Candidate A: sure. The information packs include, for example, brochures about specifications of our advanced cars, the most attractive pictures reflecting the modern image of our cars, etc. Candidate B: I agree entirely. What’s more, I think welcome information and itineraries for guests should also be prepared in advance.Candidate A: Oh, exactly.ⅢExamination Strategies1）看清问题、紧扣主题、合理分配时间2）和搭档注意配合，切忌一边倒3）如何合理的利用准备时间Discussion Functional Sentences（一）开始某个话题Let’s start with …Shall we begin with …So, the first item on the agenda is …Linda, would you like to kick off?（二）结束某个话题Right, I think that covers the first item.Shall we leave that item?If you don’t have anything else to add, …（三）转移话题Let’s move on to the next item …The next question on the agenda is …Now let’s come to the question of …（四）打断对方Excuse me, may I interrupt?Just a moment, but …Can I say something here?Mark, sorry, …Sorry to interrupt, but …（五）评价1．同意That’s a good point.I agree with you.

BEC中级考试技巧口语篇

BEC中级考试技巧口语篇bec中级是要考口语的，很多同学在这方面不太理想，今天想跟大家分享一下BEC中级口语的考试小技巧。

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。

bec中级口语第三部分流程

bec中级口语第三部分流程BEC中级口语第三部分流程。

一、总体介绍。

BEC中级口语的第三部分呀，就像是一场有趣的小讨论呢。

这部分是两个人一组进行的哦。

一般会给你一个话题相关的题目或者情景描述，然后你和你的搭档就要根据这个展开讨论啦。

这个过程就像是两个人在聊天，但又有一定的任务在身哦。

二、话题到手。

当拿到话题的时候呢，可不要一下子就懵掉啦。

有时候话题可能是关于商务中的一些常见情况，比如说公司的发展方向呀，产品的推广策略之类的。

这个时候呀，你要迅速在脑子里过一下自己知道的相关知识和经验。

如果是没什么经验的同学呢，也别怕，就发挥你的想象力，想想在平时看到的商业故事或者新闻里是怎么处理类似情况的。

三、开始讨论。

1. 开场互动。

一上来呢，你和搭档之间得有个简单的互动，比如说互相打个招呼，笑一笑，让气氛轻松起来。

这就像是你和好朋友聊天之前的那种小预热。

然后呢，其中一个人可以先开个头，大概说说对这个话题的第一感觉，不需要太复杂，就是简单地把话题引入到讨论中来。

2. 观点阐述。

接着呢，你们就开始轮流说自己的观点啦。

这个时候呀，可不要害羞哦。

大胆地把自己的想法说出来。

比如说你觉得公司要拓展新市场，那就说“我觉得咱这个公司呀，就应该去开拓新的市场，像那些新兴的城市或者地区，那里的潜力可大啦。

”说的时候呢，还可以加上一些自己的小理由，“为啥这么说呢，你看现在那些老市场都已经竞争很激烈了，新市场就像一片还没怎么开垦的土地，机会多多呀。

”3. 互相交流。

在对方说观点的时候呢，要认真听哦。

不要光想着自己下一句要说什么。

当对方说完了，你可以适当地表示一下认同或者提出一点小疑问。

就像朋友之间聊天那样自然。

比如说“你这个想法挺不错的呢，不过我有点小疑问，就是咱们进入新市场的成本会不会很高呀？”然后你们就可以针对这个问题再深入讨论一下。

4. 拓展话题。

除了就着对方的观点讨论，你们还可以把话题往更宽的方向拓展。

比如说从产品推广谈到公司的品牌形象，再谈到整个行业的发展趋势。

Now,first of all, what items do you think should be included here?B: Well, as we know, they are here to investigate a possible long- term cooperation with us. So, the first thing Monday morning is to take them for a tour around our company. We should show them the best part of our company,particularly the office computer management system.A: Yes. But perhaps we should first give them a chance to see the video profile of our company before showing them around and that would give them a better idea of our unique way of operating our business.B: That’s great.

From the information we have gathered, they are people of very well cultured background,how about giving them some taste of Peking Opera at the Capital Theatre?B: I do not disagree, but I am afraid it shouldn’t be too long for that. There are other things I would want to bring to our attention.I mean we need to take cultural differences into consideration.I don’t think we can expect them to sit out a two hours performance that they understand practically little.A: Maybe we can arrange for half an hour of Peking opera before we take them for a late night dinner.B: Alright. That’s settled. But where do you think we should take them to for the meal?A: We should choose one of the best restaurants along the busiest street in this city where they could experience the hustle and bustle of this city.B: But there’s something else that I want to note here. I think the British are generally rather reserved people.I am afraid they would prefer not to have a too noisy and busy place for dinner.A: That’s a good point. In this case, we should book a room in a quite distinctive restaurant where we could have more privacy and at the same time enjoy the local food.B: If there is no further question, let’s get down to our preparation right now.。

BEC中级口语第三部分素材

BEC中级口语第三部分素材这里为大家提供一些BEC口语第三部分的素材,希望大家认真学习,看看他们是怎么样展开话题的.Task 1A: Well, you see, our company is going to attend a trade fair in the US.B: Yeah, sounds exciting. Since we’ve never done that before, we need to have good advance preparations for the trip.A: You’re right. The first thing to do is of course to make travel and accommodation arrangements, such as choosing an airline offering good services and the flight of the right time so that we can arrange things well and in an effective way.B: This can be done by making several phone calls. And we have to make advance reservation with a local hotel so that the people for the trade fair can have a place to stay immediately after they arrive in the country.A: With early booking, we may even en joy some discounts. And it’s better to choose a hotel near the trade fair. That can save the time traveling there.B: Or we can arrange beforehand to hire a car from a local car rental company.A: In addition, it would be useful to know about some business customs in the US, including commonly accepted business practices, ways of doing business, and laws and regulations, etc.B: Yeah, especially those different from ours. Say, different ideas about punctuality. I heard that in the United States, people tend to be very time-conscious. Being late would be considered poor etiquette.A: Also in China, business transactions are often concluded by treating business partners to lavish dinners and giving them expensive gifts, I’m afraid they seldom do it this way in the West or in the US.B: I was told that in Western countries, people attach much importance to formal agreement and contracts with detailed terms and conditions. They never feel comfortable with verbal agreements. In China, however, business is often concluded simply by verbal agreement.A: We should also learn about business customs such as the different systems of measurement. For instance, we use the day/ month/ year system for dating while the US use month/ day/ year system. And there are many other differences including topics acceptable in conversation.B: Also, Chinese businessmen tend to have business negotiations in a rather indirect manner, while American businessmen have a more direct style. Our people should be made to understand all these differences.A: But how to find out about all this?B: I think there are many ways to find out about these before the trip, say, we can go to the Internet, read some reference books or get tips from experienced colleagues and clients.A: They could be effective ways. Let’s do them.Task 2A: You see, in the past year one of our clients kept losing staff and suffered a heavy loss. They worry a lot and turn to us. Have you got any constructive suggestions?B: Yes. Our client should first examine their staff recruiting. There must be something wrong with their recruiting practice.A: Why?B: You know, keeping staff turnover low begins with hiring staff members who are a good match for the practice and the position. So it can be beneficial for the client company to change its idea from “attracting and retaining the best employees” to “attracting and recruiting the suitable employees.”A: Good idea! By recruiting the appropriate new staff, our client builds the employees’ commitment and retention wi ll necessarily follow.B: Exactly.A: Then how to recruit the right staff is crucial to our client.B: Yes. To recruit the appropriate new hires, it’s important to advertise the job vacancy in the newspapers and magazines targeting at the ideal candidates.A: To ensure that a candidate’s skills match the job, it’s also important to limit the conditions and requirements of candidates on the job advertisement.B: Yes. Besides, it’s better for our client to conduct thorough reference checks and find out why a candidate left a previous job.A: Yeah, that’s important. Still there are other contributable factors that our client should consider, such as providing information of the current state of their future work environment, offering staff with proper training, talking to staff members and solving problems as they emerge. All these can be important in keeping staff turnover low.B: You are right. Furthermore, the client company should strive to provide superior leadership in their practice, such as keeping communication lines open, periodically taking time to examine the workplace from the employee’s perspective, and continually seeking to improve it.A: Yeah, that will help to create and maintain a place where people want to work and stay. In addition, giving the employees a sense of empowerment should not be ignored.B: For example?A: Such as providing a breathing space to take risks, to use their own best judgment, and to be accountable for the decisions they’ve made etc.B: Yeah, that surely works.Task 3A: Our guests are arriving at weekend for a three day visit, so let’s look at our arrangement of activities for our guests. Now, first of all, what items do you think should be included here?B: Well, as we know, they are here to investigate a possible long-term cooperation with us. So, the first thing Monday morning is to take them for a tour around our company. We should show them the best part of our company, particularly the office computer management system.A: Yes. But perhaps we should first give them a chance to see the video profile of our company before showing them around and that would give them a better idea of our unique way of operating our business.B: That’s great. I totally agree with you on that. What are we going to arrange for Monday evening? Theatre, concert, or restaurant?A: Oh, well. From the information we have gathered, they are people of very well cultured background, how about giving them some taste of Peking Opera at the Capital Theatre?B: I do not disagree, but I am afraid it shouldn’t be too long for that. There are other things I would want to bring to our attention. I mean we need to take cultural differences into consideration. I don’t think we can expect them to sit out a two hours performance that they understand practically little.A: Maybe we can arrange for half an hour of Peking opera before we take them for a late night dinner.B: Alright. That’s settled. But where do you think we should take them to for the meal?A: We should choose one of the best restaurants along the busiest street in this city where they could experience the hustle and bustle of this city.B: But there’s something else that I want to note here. I think the British are generally rather reserved people. I am afraid they would prefer not to have a too noisy and busy place for dinner.A: That’s a good point. In this case, we should book a room in a quite distinctive restaurant where we could have more privacy and at the same time enjoy the local food.B: If there is no further question, let’s get down to our preparation right now.。

By carrying out market research, a company can get such information as whether there exists a niche market for a new product, and what are customers＇needs and tastes for the new product, therefore, the new product will sell well when it is launched into market.Next, I think costs are also important. A product＇s cost determines the product＇s price. Other costs like for marketing, advertising and managing will also be involved in. So cutting down the unnessary costs is a crucial step.Finally, screening is also a significant factor, because it separates ideas with potential from those that cannot meet company objectives. Poor screening may lead to product failure.★★★When planning health and safety training for employees, it is important to select the right and related topics. Take chemical training as an example, relevant and important topics should be included, such as the methods used to detect the presence or release of hazardous chemicals, the physical and health problems posed by hazardous chemicals, and the ways by which employees can protect themselves from chemical dangers and so on. High topics achieve purposes.In addition to selecting topics, selecting related staff to attend is also important. If it can serve for target people and meet certain requests, the company can achieve the training purpose.Besides, the length of training and opportunity for re-training can be important as well because safety and health knowledge needs to be emphasized and reinforced from time to time, and lengthy training can be boring and have negative effects on trainees.★★★In cost management, efficiency of production is an important aspect to consider. When introducing a production line, it is important to consult an ergonomics expert and see that it＇s user-friendly and will not cause too much physical stress and strain. Meanwhile, workers should get fully-trained to work more efficiently on the line.It is also important to cut down the cost of raw materials, as to a large extent, it helps to determine the product prices. Cost-conscious companies always seek to work with good suppliers who can offer quality raw materials with reasonable prices. Low quality materials from suppliers are actually a waste of money.Measures should also be taken to eliminate waste. On top of that, management should develop good benefits system to boost the morale of the workers. ★★★When organizing work time, time management skills are important. They are essential skills for effective people. Having clear objectives would help you concentrate on the right things which are important and urgent.In addition, keeping a diary would remind you of all essential tasks to be finished. It＇s a powerful method of organizing yourself and a way of reducing stress. Thus you can tackle problems in order of importance, which allows you to separate important jobs from the many time-consuming trivial ones.Apart from the two points I have mentioned, it＇s also important to get cooperation from those around you. Let your colleagues, spouse, family members, and others know about your efforts to manage a busy schedule, and thus you can be free from interruption.★★★In deciding packaging for a product, it＇s important to choose the colour, texture and design that provide the best image or appearance of the product.A firm can create desirable appearance by designing a package that conveys signals of taste and food content. Many manufactures have upgraded the packaging of their food product to convey high-quality images. Next, I think the health and safety is especially important for food product. When designing the package, we should not only put emphasis on color, size, even graphics, but also the materials of the package whether it is environmentally friendly or not and whether it will contaminate the food inside or not.Finally, I think offering consumers convenience is also important. Packaging should be designed in such as way to make it easier for consumers to open the container and enjoy the product.★★★When aiming to improve customer service, it is very important for a company to train the staff first. By inviting some experts to train the staff, it will improve staff＇s friendliness, the speed of service and learn to deal with customer complaints.It is also important for a company to monitor the quality service. One way of monitoring the quality of service is to conduct customer satisfication surveys.By obtaining feedback from customers, the companywill know how the business has met customer expectations.Another way to improve customer service is to offer timely service. We must provide the product precisely when it is promised and in the minimum amount of time.★★★When entertaining foreign business clients, we need, first of all, to decide on the most suitable venue for the event to take place. We had better find out in our first contact with our foreign clients if they are more of art lovers or sports fans or gourmets, and then choose the type of entertainment: whether it should be in a restaurant or in the theatre or in some other appropriate venue for the event.But all I mentioned above must base on the consideration of cultural differences. When interacting with foreign business people, problems may arise in different thought patterns, different ways of seeing the world, and different ways of decision-making. These problems are the result of cultural differences and will often lead to misunderstanding.The other important aspect for us is to have a clear plan in mind when we come to the meeting. We need to work out a list of specific business objectives to achieve. Therefore while making sure our foreign business clients enjoy themselves, we quietly and smoothly direct the meeting step by step towards our goal.BEC中级口语第三部分素材Task 1A: Well, you see, our company is going to attend a trade fair in the US.B: Yeah, sounds exciting. Since we’ve never done that before, we need to have good advance preparations for the trip.A: You’re right. The first thing to do is of course to make travel and accommodation arrangements, such as choosing an airline offering good services and the flight of the right time so that we can arrange things well and in an effective way. B: This can be done by making several phone calls. And we have to make advance reservation with a local hotel so that the people for the trade fair can have a place to stay immediately after they arrive in the country.A: With early booking, we may even enjoy some discounts. And it’s better to choose a ho tel near the trade fair. That can save the time traveling there.B: Or we can arrange beforehand to hire a car from a local car rental company.A: In addition, it would be useful to know about some business customs in the US, including commonly accepted business practices, ways of doing business, and laws and regulations, etc.B: Yeah, especially those different from ours. Say, different ideas about punctuality. I heard that in the United States, people tend to be very time-conscious. Being late would be considered poor etiquette.A: Also in China, business transactions are often concluded by treating business partners to lavish dinners and giving them expensive gifts, I’m afraid they seldom do it this way in the West or in the US.B: I was told that in Western countries, people attach much importance to formal agreement and contracts with detailed terms and conditions. They never feel comfortable with verbal agreements. In China, however, business is often concluded simply by verbal agreement.A: We should also learn about business customs such as the different systems of measurement. For instance, we use the day/ month/ year system for dating while the US use month/ day/ year system. And there are many other differences including topics acceptable in conversation.B: Also, Chinese businessmen tend to have business negotiations in a rather indirect manner, while American businessmen have a more direct style. Our people should be made to understand all these differences.A: But how to find out about all this?B: I think there are many ways to find out about these before the trip, say, we can go to the Internet, read some reference books or get tips from experienced colleagues and clients.A: They could be effective ways. Let’s do them.Task 2A: You see, in the past year one of our clients kept losing staff and suffered a heavy loss. They worry a lot and turn to us. Have you got any constructive suggestions?B: Yes. Our client should first examine their staff recruiting. There must be something wrong with their recruiting practice.A: Why?B: You know, keeping staff turnover low begins with hiring staff members who are a good match for the practice and the position. So it can be beneficial for the client company to change its idea from “attracting an d retaining the best employees” to “attracting and recruiting the suitable employees.”A: Good idea! By recruiting the appropriate new staff, our client builds the employees’ commitment and retention will necessarily follow.B: Exactly.A: Then how to recruit the right staff is crucial to our client.B: Yes. To recruit the appropriate new hires, it’s important to advertise the job vacancy in the newspapers and magazines targeting at the ideal candidates.A: To ensure that a candidate’s skills match the job, it’s also important to limit the conditions and requirements of candidates on the job advertisement.B: Yes. Besides, it’s better for our client to conduct thorough reference checks and find out why a candidate left a previous job.A: Yeah, that’s important. Still there are other contributable factors that our client should consider, such as providing information of the current state of their future work environment, offering staff with proper training, talking to staff members and solving problems as they emerge. All these can be important in keeping staff turnover low.B: You are right. Furthermore, the client company should strive to provide superior leadership in their practice, such as keeping communication lines open, periodically taking time to examine the workplace from the employee’s perspective, and continually seeking to improve it.A: Yeah, that will help to create and maintain a place where people want to work and stay. In addition, giving the employees a sense of empowerment should not be ignored.B: For example?A: Such as providing a breathing space to take risks, to use their own best judgment, and to be accountable for the decisions they’ve made etc.B: Yeah, that surely works.Task 3A: Our guests are arriving at weekend for a three day visit, so let’s look at our arrangement of activities for our guests. Now, first of all, what items do you think should be included here?B: Well, as we know, they are here to investigate a possible long-term cooperation with us. So, the first thing Monday morning is to take them for a tour around our company. We should show them the best part of our company, particularly the office computer management system.A: Yes. But perhaps we should first give them a chance to see the video profile of our company before showing them around and that would give them a better idea of our unique way of operating our business.B: That’s great. I totally agree with you on that. What are we going to arrange for Monday evening? Theatre, concert, or restaurant?A: Oh, well. From the information we have gathered, they are people of very well cultured background, how about giving them some taste of Peking Opera at the Capital Theatre?B: I do not disagree, but I am afraid it shouldn’t be too long for that. There are other things I would want to bring to our attention. I mean we need to take cultural differences into consideration. I don’t think we can expect them to sit out a two hours performance that they understand practically little.A: Maybe we can arrange for half an hour of Peking opera before we take them for a late night dinner.B: Alright. That’s settled. But where do you think we should take them to for the meal?A: We should choose one of the best restaurants along the busiest street in this city where they could experience the hustle and bustle of this city.B: But there’s something else that I want to note here.I think the British are generally rather reserved people.I am afraid they would prefer not to have a too noisy and busy place for dinner.A: That’s a good point. In this case, we should book a room in a quite distinctive restaurant where we could have more privacy and at the same time enjoy the local food.B: If there is no further question, let’s get down to our preparation right now.剑桥商务英语（BEC）中级口语考试试题（声明：这些真题是我参加培训的时候听写下来的，所以1.有的题目可能不是很全，或者听写得不够精确；2.所有试题都来源于我考试的那个考点，可能并不适合中国所有的其它考点；3.本人免费为大家整理，是为了回报论坛，仅对大家提供参考，如果考试时和本文提供的试题不同，本人概不负责；4.由于本人口语是两人一组，所以下面的题目对三人组合的情况可能不合适；5.不妥之处望大家见谅，并祝大家考出好成绩）口语考试分为三部分：第一阶段：考官和考生交流，时间大约3分钟1.Q：What’s your name?A：My name is (Kate) (注：括号内的为参考答案)2 .Q：Where are you from?A：I come from (JiangSu Province)3.
