2020年商务英语高级口试试题及答案(卷一)PART ONE: INTERVIEW(1) Do you think everybody working in business today should have a range of computer skills?(Why?/Why not?)你认为如今从事商务需要一系列电脑技能吗?(为什么?)Sure. Most jobs today require a working knowledge of certain computer skills. Employers seek and reward employees with the skills and knowledge.(2) What are some basic computer skills for an office staff?办公室职员需要什么样的基本电脑技能?They may include word pro; sending E-mail; using a spreadsheet to create a graph and paste it into a report; adding and editing data in a database, etc.(3) Will methods of communication change or not in the future?(Why?/Why not?)未来人们的沟通方式会改变吗?(为什么?)Sure, there will be some changes. With computers getting more and more popular, more and more people will use E-mail as a method of communication. But I don’t think telephone will be out of use. The two methods of communication will co-exist.(4) What are the effects that computers have had on people’s working lives?/What are the effects of new technologies on office life?电脑对人们的工作生活会产生什么影响?/新科技对人们的办公生活会产生什么影响?I think people are being pushed into a different world—a keyboard world. Almost everything is done on the computer and it helps raise efficiency.PART TWO: MINI-PRESENTATIONWhat is important when…?Conducting computer training 举办电脑培训需考虑哪些要点?l External experts 外聘专家l Participants 参加人员lIt’s important to have external experts when conducting computer training. Some people may think that smart computer users in the company will be more cost-effective, but experts from an IT consultancy are obviously more professional and the training may achieve better results.As for participants, I think companies should get as many of their people as possible to participate in computer training, not only those currently involved in the use of computers, but also those who seem to have nothing to do with computers at the moment. With computers becoming more and more popular, computer skills will soon become something very basic for survival in a workplace.In addition, equipping some staff members who are skillful in computers as on-site mentors is also important. They are there not only for tech support, but also for sharing the triumphs and breakthroughs with their colleagues to get them better motivated.举办电脑培训的时候外聘专家是很重要的。

2020年商务英语高级口试试题及答案(卷十)Questions 15–20Read the following article on negotiating techniques and the question 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.The Negotiating Table:You can negotiate virtually anything. Projects, resources, expectations and deadlines are all outcomes of negotiation. Some people negotiate deals for a living. Dr Herb Cohen is one of these professional talkers, called in by companies to negotiate on their behalf . He approaches the art of negotiation as a game because, as he is usually negotiating for somebody else, he says this helps him drain the emotional content from his conversation. He is working in a competitive field and needs to avoid being too adversarial. Whether he succeeds or not, it is important to him to make a good impression so that people will recommend him.The starting point for any deal, he believes, is to identify exactly what you want from each other. More often than not, one party will be trying to persuade the other round to their point of view. Negotiation requires two people at the end saying ‘yes”. This can be a problem because one of them usually begins by saying “no”. However, althoughthis can make talks more difficult, this is often just a starting point in the negotiation game. Top management may well reject the idea initially because it is the safer option but they would not be there if they were not interested.It is a misconception that skilled negotiators are smooth operators in smart suits. Dr Cohen says that one of his strategies is to dress down so that the other side can relate to you. Pitch your look to suit your customer. You do not need to make them feel better than you but, For example, dressing in a style that is not overtly expensive or successful will make you more approachable. People will generally feel more comfortable with somebody who appears to be like them rather than superior to them. They may not like you but they will feel they can trust you.Dr Cohen suggests that the best way to sell your proposal is by getting into the world of the other side. Ask questions rather than give answers and take an interest in what the other person is saying, even if you think what they are saying is silly. You do not need to become their best friends but being too clever will alienate them. A lot of deals are made on impressions. Do not rush what you are saying---put a few hesitations in , do not try to blind them with your verbal dexterity. Also, you should repeat back to them what they have said to show you take them seriously.Inevitably some deals will not succeed. Generally the longer the negotiations go on, the better chance they have because people do not want to think their investment and energies have gone to waste. However , joint venture can mean joint risk and sometimes , if this becomes too great , neither party may be prepared to see the deal through . More common is a corporate culture clash between companies, which can put paid to any deal. Even having agreed a deal, things may not be tied up quickly because when the lawyers get involved, everything gets slowed down as they argue about small details.De Cohen thinks that children are the masters of negotiation. Their goals are totally selfish. They understand the decision-making process within families perfectly. If Mum refuses their request , they will troop along to Dad and pressure him. If al else fails, they will try the grandparents, using some emotional blackmail. They can also be very single-minded and have an inexhaustible supply of energy for the cause they are pursuing. So there are lesson to be learned from watching and listening to children.15. Dr Cohen treats negotiation as a game in order toA put people at easeB remain detachedC be competitiveD impress rivals。

2020年商务英语高级口试试题及答案(卷十三)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 andnew 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 , asa 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 are likely 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 identify training 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。

2020年商务英语高级口试试题及答案(卷六)Corporate Sponsorship 企业赞助PART ONE: INTERVIEW(1) What sports events do you think companies should be involved in sponsoring? (Why?)你认为企业应该赞助哪些体育赛事?(为什么?)I think companies should sponsor big sports events, like the Olympic games or national sports games, because these events are great attractions to people all over the world or the country. There will be wide coverage by the mass media. So there will be lots of exposure opportunities for the products they wish to advertise.(2) Do you think that sponsorship is the most effective from of advertising? (Why?/Why not?)你是否认为赞助是最有效的广告宣传方式?(为什么?)Yes. In my opinion, most people find advertising too direct and offensive, they regard advertising as an insidious(诡诈的) form of brainwashing, so people tend to avoid or even resist them. But sponsorship is a much cleverer way of advertising, people have all their attention on the games and don’t seem to realize that they are being brainwashed.(3) Besides sports events, what other kinds of activities or programmes do you think companies can sponsor? (Why?)除了体育项目,你认为企业还可以赞助哪些其他活动?(为什么?)I think companies can also sponsor education. In doing so, they are taking on an important responsibility towards society. This will promote a very positive image and reinforce the company’s position as a good corporate citizen.(4) Do you think that in the future companies will make more use of sponsorship as a marketing strategy? (Why?/Why not?)你是否认为将来企业会更多地把赞助作为一种营销策略?(为什么?)Yes. I think advertisers are going to rely more and more on techniques such as sponsorship in the years to come. Sponsorship can not only help to advertise products, but also create a unique bond between the company and the public. It’s a more effective way of consolidating the existing clientele base and increasing new customer potential.PART TWO: MINI-PRESENTATIONWhat’s important when…?Considering to sponsor a sports event 赞助一场体育比赛需考虑哪些要点?l Target audience 目标观众l Media coverage 媒体报道lWell, in this case, the priority concern is to define the target audience. We cannot assume that everybody will watch the game, we have to narrow down the major characteristics of our target audience. I mean, we have to ask “Are these really the people we’re after?”“Do they make up our targeted market?”Then we’ll be able to match up our product with the event.Next, we have to consider media coverage. Big audiences don’t necessarily translate to good sales. The decisive factor is gaining positive media exposure. If the event you sponsor receives extensive media coverage, it will bring the company and their products within public focus, and enhance company brand, product, service loyalties.Finally, we also need to look at other competitors and make efforts to distinguish our company from other sponsors, otherwise our brand name will be buried in all this clutter of brand promotion. And of course, costs should also be considered.在这种情况下,优先考虑的是明确目标观众。

2020年商务英语高级口试试题及答案(卷七)Corporate Culture企业文化Culture can be viewed at several levels.文化可以从几个层面来理解。
Some aspects of culture are visible and tangible and others are intangible and unconscious.文化的有些方面是看得见摸得着的,而其他方面又是摸不着、意识不到的。
Basic assumptions that guide the organization are deeply rooted and often taken for granted.指导企业的基本设想已经深入人心并且被认为是理所当然的。
Avoidance of conflict is a value that is an excellent example of an unconscious norm that may have a major influence on the organization but is frequently unconscious.避免冲突就代表一种不自觉规范的价值观,这种规范可能会对企业产生一种很大的影响,但人们往往意识不到它的存在。
For an insider, this is difficult or impossible to see, particularly if the individual has “grown up”in the organizational culture.这对于一个处于企业文化内部的人,特别是对于一个在这种企业文化中“成长”起来的人来说,是很难或者是不可能看到的。
Recently hired employees, the external consultant and theexecutive coach are frequently in the best position to identify these unconscious assumptions or values.新雇佣的员工、企业外部的顾问或行政知道,往往最有资格识别这些设想和价值观。

一Happy Hour: After-Work SocializingIn many countries, having a drink after work with colleagues is a popular way to relax: This kind of socializing helps us get to know each other and to build team spirit. To attract customers who are just getting off w ork, many bars and clubs have a “happy hour.” This is a promotion in the early evening, usually lasting an hour or so, when pubs and bars offer a special prices on drinks, such as “buy one get one free” or “all drinks half price.” So in this business Engli sh podcast, we will explore language that we can use to socialize with colleagues during happy hour or during other informal occasions.Whether you drink alcohol or not, in many places around the world you will likely be invited to the bar or pub with col leagues. It’s important to know how to offer to buy drinks for others and how to make polite excuses when you’ve had enough or when it’s time to go. The same skills are also useful for other types of after-work social activities.In the dialog, we join Greg, a manager, and three people in his team – Joanna, Gary, and Ben – as they order.Listening Questions:1) Who is paying for the first round of drinks? How can you tell?2) Who is the person who doesn’t drink?3) When it’s time for her to go, what excu se does Joanna make?2. Socializing: Networking (Part 1)This is the first of a two-part Business English Pod series on networking.In business, so much depends on who you know. A network is a group of business contacts that have the resources to help each other out. Former and current colleagues, outside business associates, vendors, friends, acquaintances – these can all be part of your network.The term “networking” refers to developing this group of contacts. Most businesspeople are looking to expand their networks –for sales leads, job referrals, information, and advice. Networking also means being helpful to others. There should be mutual benefits for all involved.Networking often involves approaching people you don’t know, which can be a little awkward. How do you network in a way that seems genuine? In this lesson, we’ll look at ways to approach people. We’ll also cover greetings and introductions, 10-second elevator pitches, and talking about your industry.Today we’ll listen to Ian and Marissa’s first interaction at a pharmacy conference. Ian is a sales rep for a pharmaceutical company. Marissa is the manager of a hospital pharmacy. A pharmacy is a place that distributes medicine and drugs.Listening Questions:1. How does Ian break the ice with Marissa? In other words, how does he start their first interaction?2. How did Ian learn about the flu vaccine clinics?3. Why is Marissa frustrated with her supplier?。

2020 BEC高级口语考试介绍及高频用语一、口语考试流程EBC口试采用两人一组(也有可能三人一组)的面试方式,约为14分钟。
有两位考官主考,一位提问,一位在旁边打分。
第一部分:对话。
这一部分分为两个阶段。
第一阶段,询问有关考生个人情况(放轻松,就是自我介绍,一般问你的学习或工作情况,不会很难);第二阶段,提问一般商务问题。
(exp: Brand, meeting, Career planning, etc.这些不用特意准备,在第二部分都会涉及,从第二部分中拿过来用就行。
)第二部分:简短发言。
这部分为每人一分钟的简短发言(两人同时有一分钟的准备时间)。
考官会分别给每个考生一张题卡(包括三道不同的题目),由考生任选一题作答,每道题目下面提供两个代表论点的提示词,在完成这两个论点的论证后,还要自行补充1-2个论点,另一位考生要认真听,并在该考生作答完毕后就此提问问题。
(这部分如何备考会在下面考试技巧中详细介绍) 第三部分:讨论这部分为考生之间就商务语境中的工作话题进行三分钟的讨论(两人同时有30秒准备时间)。
考官会发给考生一张讨论题卡,上面有几行提示词,根据提示词进行讨论。
Ps:以上为中级的口语流程,高级的不同在于第二部分简短发言不给出提示词,论点由考生自行想出并论证,第三部分两人讨论完毕后考官会基于讨论的内容对考生分别追加1-2个问题。
二、口语如何准备?Step1,积累模板Step2练习模板这些模板那本口语书都有,更重要的是看你会不会灵活运用,强行掰。
不要临时的百分百创作,口语考试一定是把你平时练得想吐的东西,重复一遍而不是即兴发挥。
甚至提问都可以是固定的。
固定提问的好处就是让你的搭档不会慌张,不会听不清。
平时怎么训练口语?-利用你已经有的模板,尽量往题目上套。
绝对是共通的,比如说与人有关,消费者,员工。
公司战略有关,地点,营销策略,新产品,时间管理,提高效率,来来回回都差不多。
练习多了就明白了。
