BEC高级口语备考重点
2009年BEC商务英语考试口语备考重点 众所周知，口语是BEC四个单元中挑战性较大的一部分，并且口语考试的难度随着等级的提高而加大。BEC口语考试分为三部分。第一部分是考生与考官的交流，着重于个人情况，学习工作，兴趣爱好。这一部分必须充分准备，但难度不会超过普通的工作面试，且一般不会涉及商务知识。主要的难点在于第二、第三部分。第二部分让考生就某一商务主题发表一分钟的演讲，而第三部分中，两位考生就某个商务主题进行讨论。这两个部分要求较高，而准备时间仅为一分钟。针对这种情况，必须从下列方面准备。BEC作为商务英语考试，要求具备一定的商务背景知识，不要求很精深，但一定要有个大致的了解。因为广大BEC考生普遍英语基础较好(指语法，语音，基本词汇的运用)，但对商务词汇与概念深感隔行如隔山，第一重点就是商务词汇的扩展。当然词汇的问题决不是简单的死背词汇表，这种方法不会导致对词汇的深刻理解，灵活运用必然也大打折扣。比较好的方法是在读解分析范文时，注意商务词汇在文中的运用，把好的词汇结合句子一道背诵，然后在自己练习时有意地使用，才能学以致用。总之，词汇量的多少决定着英语水平高低。这就像一两滴水对环境没有什么影响，但当千千万万滴水形成湖、汇成海后就足以影响气候一样。 第二重点是针对BEC口语出题范围。将其细分为多个出题领域：职业发展，人事，营销，商务交流，信息管理，物流，金融，公司发展，项目管理，质量控制，竞争，健康安全，战略策划，生产管理，国际商务，交通，商业文化与伦理等，各个击破。对于每个领域内的经典题型，必须对大量范文作详细分析，总结最常用的话题与理由，体会不同场合变换说法的重要性，克服考生中普遍的理解考题却无话可说的尴尬。 第三，要注重积累商务案例。对于任一题目，光说一大堆理由，是很难得高分的，即使理由本身非常正确。关键在于必须有活生生的例子说明问题。这一点上，临时抱佛脚是没有用的，务必要*平时注意收集并在会话中运用恰当的例子。 第四点是要透过经典题型例解的现象看本质。学会运用会话模式，如开题—质询—观点—扩展型对话，并掌握有效的相关口语技巧，如Echo, Objection, Proposition, Development, Hypothesis, Definition, Interrogation, Repetition等。这样，对于会话的总体框架与结构在心中有了一个蓝图以后，才能把注意力放在内容上。

高级英语2第二课译文讲课稿
第二课 参考译文 马拉喀什随笔 乔治·奥威尔 1. 一具尸体抬过，成群的苍蝇从饭馆的餐桌上一哄而起，追逐而上，几分钟后又嗡嗡地飞了回来。 2. 一支人数不多的送葬队伍——无论成人或孩子全是男性，没有女性——沿着集贸市场，迂回穿行于一堆堆石榴摊子、出租车和骆驼之间，一边走着一边反复地哀号着一曲短促的悲歌。真正吸引苍蝇成群追逐的是：这里的尸体从来都不装进棺木，只是用一块破布裹着，放在一个粗糙的木制陈尸架上，由死者的四位朋友抬着送葬。抵达安葬地后，先在地上挖出一个一两英尺深的长方形坑，随即将尸体往坑里一倒，再扔上一些像碎砖头一样的干土块。既没有墓碑，也没有留名，更没有任何身份标识。安葬地不过是一片巨大的土丘林立的荒原，恰似一块废弃的建筑工地。一两个月之后，谁也说不准自己的亲人究竟葬在何处。 3. 当你徒步经过这样的城镇——20万当地居民当中，至少有两万人除了一身聊以蔽体的破衣烂裳外，一无所有——当你看到那些人何以生存，又何以轻易地死去时，你永远难以相信自己是在人类当中穿行。事实上，这是所有殖民帝国赖以建立的基础。这里的人都有一张褐色的脸——而且，他们人数众多！他们果真和你一样同属人类吗？他们也有名有姓吗？或许他们只是像一群群彼此之间难以区分的蜜蜂或珊瑚虫一样的东西。他们生于土地，受苦受累，忍饥挨饿地过上几年，然后就被埋到无名的小坟丘下。没有人会注意到他们的离去，甚至那些小坟丘本身也会很快地夷为平地。有时，当你外出散步，穿过仙人掌丛时，你会感觉到脚下特别的凸凹不平，只有那起伏凹凸的固定形状使你意识到脚下踩的正是死人的骷髅。 4. 我正在公园里给一只瞪羚喂食。 5. 瞪羚几乎是唯一一种在存活时看上去能让人食欲大开的动物。实际上，人们光看到它的两条后腿就会联想到薄荷酱。我正在喂着的这只瞪羚似乎已看出了我的心思，尽管它在吃我手上递出去的面包，但显然对我并没什么好感。它迅速地咬了一小口面包，然后低下头，试图用脑袋顶我，然后又咬一口面包，又顶了一次。它大概以为：如果把我赶走，面包仍能悬在半空当中。 6. 一个正在附近小道上干活的阿拉伯民工放下笨重的锄头，羞怯地侧着身子慢慢向我们走过来。他诧异地看看瞪羚，又看看面包，看看面包，又看看瞪羚，好像他从未见过这样的情景。最终，他怯生生地用法语说：“我能吃点那面包就好了。” 7. 我撕下一块面包给他，他充满感激地把它藏到破衣裳贴身的地方。这个人是市政当局的一名雇工。 8. 当你经过犹太人居住区时，你就会了解中世纪的犹大人区大概是什么样子。在摩尔人的统治下，犹太人只可以在几个规定的区域内拥有土地，而且经过几个世纪的如此待遇之后，犹太人已经不再为拥挤不堪烦扰了。这儿的许多街道远不足6英尺宽；房屋完全没有窗户；眼睛红肿的孩子成群结队，四处可见，多得像一群群的苍蝇，令入难以置信。沿着街心常常尿流成河。 9. 在集市里，一大家子的犹大人都身着黑色长袍，头戴黑色瓜皮帽，在看起来像洞穴一般暗淡、苍蝇麋集的货摊里干活。一个木工双腿交叉坐在一架最原始的车床旁，正以飞快的速度旋制着椅子腿。他右手握弓开动车床，左脚引动旋刀。由于一辈子都保持这样的坐姿，他的左腿已经弯曲变形。旁边坐着他年仅六岁的小孙子，竟已开始帮着做些简单的活计了。

Chapter 9 Lecture: Public Education: Philosophy and Funding Most young people in the United States, like most young people around the world, attend public school. Indeed, young people in the U.S. have to attend school because education is compulsory, in most states to the age of sixteen or until the students reach ninth grade. A small percentage of American youth attend private schools, wither religious or secular schools, but the vast majority attend public schools. One distinguishing feature of U.S. public education that surprises many foreigners is that although there are some standardized examinations, there is no nationwide curriculum set by the government ministry of education determines the curriculum that all students study and the examinations that all the students take at a set time. Of course, U.S. students follow a curriculum, and they take examinations as all students do. Although the federal government does influence public education by providing funds to schools for special programs such as education for the handicapped and for bilingual education, the federal government does not determine the curriculum or the examinations. Today I’d like to talk about the three levels of control within each state and then spend some time discussing where the money for education comes from and three issues related to funding. Control of education in the United States is mainly exercised locally at three levels. Let’s begin with the state department of education. The department of education of each of the fifty states has two basic functions. First, each state department of education sets basic curriculum requirements for all the schools in its state. For example, a high school might require four years of English, three years of math, two years of social science, and so forth. The state also sets the number of credits a student must complete in order to graduate from a high school. This total number of credits includes both required courses and electives. So much for the state part in education. The second level of control is the school district. The number of school districts a state has depends on the size of its population and the size of the state. A large metropolitan area would have several school districts. A smaller community might have only one district. Each school district is run by a school board that is elected by the citizens of the district. The school district is responsible for the specific content of courses taught in its schools. In other words, the school district determines what the students will study in each of their, let’s say, four years of high school English. The school district also decides what electives will be available for students. Besides determining course content, the school district is responsible for the operation of the schools in its district, for example, the hiring if teachers and administrators. The third level of control is the individual school itself, where teachers have primary responsibility for deciding how to teach the content of each course and for preparing and giving examinations to the students. Local control of schools may seem very strange to some of you, but it will seem less strange if you consider how public schools in the United States are funded- that is, where money to run the schools comes from. Only about 7 percent of the money comes from the federal government. The rest of the money comes from state and local taxes. The percentages supplied by the state and by the local districts fluctuate over tome and from state to state. Currently appropriately 49 percentage of school funding comes from the states and about 44 percent comes from the local communities, that is, the school districts. Finally, I’d like to discuss three issues related to the funding of schools that have been receiving a lot of attention recently in the United States. The first issue deals with the

Book 2 Chapter 1 The Population Today we’re going to talk about population in the United States. According to the most recent government census, the population is 281,421,906 people. Now this represents an increase of almost 33 million people since the 1990 census. A population of over 281 million makes the United States the third most populous country in the whole world. As you probably know, the People’s Republic of China is the most populous country in the world. But do you know which is the second most populous? Well, if you thought India, you were right. The fourth, fifth, and sixth most populous countries are Indonesia, Brazil, and Pakistan. Now let’s get back to the United States. Let’s look at the total U. S. population figure of 281 million in three different ways. The first way is by race and origin; the second is by geographical distribution, or by where people live; and the third way is by the age and sex of the population. First of all, let’s take a look at the population by race and origin. The latest U. S. census reports that percent of the population is white, whereas percent is black. Three percent are of Asian origin, and 1 percent is Native American. percent of the population is a mixture of two or more races, and percent report themselves as “of some other race”. Let’s make sure your figures are right: OK, white, percent; black, percent; Asian, 3 percent; Native American, 1 percent; a mixture of two or more races, percent; and of some other race, percent. Hispanics, whose origins lie in Spanish-speaking countries, comprise whites, blacks, and Native Americans, so they are already included in the above figures. It is important to note that Hispanics make up percent of the present U.S. population, however. Finally, the census tells us that 31 million people in the United States were born in another country. Of the 31 million foreign born, the largest part, percent are from Mexico. The next largest group, from the Philippines, number percent. Another way of looking at the population is by geographical distribution. Do you have any idea which states are the five most populous in the United States? Well, I’ll help you out there. The five most populous states, with population figures, are California, with almost 34 million; New York, with 21 million; Texas, with 19 million; and Florida, with 16 million; and Illinois with million people. Did you get all those figures down? Well, if not, I’ll give you a chance later to check your figures. Well, then, let’s move on. All told, over half, or some 58 percent of the population, lives in
