However, it had a sharp decline in 2010, and took up only 30% of the total turnover of the company.On the contrary, product B showed an opposite trend. It accounted for 20% of the total turnover of the company in 2009, while the percentage then increased sharply to 50% in 2010. At the same time, product C demonstrated a very steady trend in the two years, taking up the same percentage of 20% of the whole turnover in 2009 and 2010.From the pie charts we can see that product B showed very positive signs in development while product A’s performance was not very satisfying and product C remained quite stable.解析:题目要求描述一个公司三种产品在2009和2010年两年间的营业额比较。

以下是为大家搜索的xx年BEC高级模拟试题,希望对大家有所帮助!更多精彩内容请及时关注我们!Look at the sentences below and at the five managers’ ments on leadership on the opposite pageWhich new item (A, B, C ,D or E) dose each statement 1 – 8 refer to ?For each statement ! – 8 , make one letter(A, B, C ,D or E) on your Answer Sheet .You will need to use some of these letters more than once .1、Suessful leadership involves making sure that employees aept new ideas.2、A good leader can bring suess to a pany in difficulties3、Leaders should be assessed on the basis of their achievements4、The personalities of good leaders are generally different from those of other managers5、Patience is a valuable quality in a suessful leader6、Leaders consider potential changes in what their pany does for others7、Good leaders will encourage their staff if their organization is in difficulties8、Leaders need to adapt their behaviour to suit different circumstances9、AMaurizio VernaLong-term, visionary business leaders must be prepared to invest to get what they want for their pany. They know when and how to apply pressure and to take risks, when they need to display a more hands-off approach. I have a pretty clear view of my ideal business leader, and of coursethat’s where I ‘m trying to head: he or she should start up and grow a cash-rich, multi-interest international organization of tremendous strength and depth.BSue TuckerThe pace of technological change, and the rate at which businesses are changing , requires leaders to have a particular aptitude for technology and an understanding of the inter. A lot of people are aware of the opportunities here ,but awareness alone isn’t enough: in a true leader this needs to be coupled with clever marketing, product design and technological innovation, and keeping abreast of everything going on in the pany. In fact the acid test , I think , is being ablle to use all of these skills to turn around a failing pany.CCarol GodfreyEffective leaders stand out from the herd. They’re often idiosyncratic, even eentric.They have the confidence to be themselves, and not to adopt the language and attributes of the run-of-the-mill professional managers and aountants. What’s crucial is having the charisma or whatever it is that gives their staff confidence in them, so they can keep everyone on board when they want to make innovations. So often these don’t get off the ground because of lack of leadership, because after all, our response to change is significantly affected by how it’s introduced.E Ana CostaOutstanding leaders understand both tactics and strategy, and are prepared to play a very long game to achieve their objectives. They understand that innegotia tions they need the “ win-win” concept, because losers risk losing their dignity, which is no good for your long-term business relationship with them. Leaders must stay optimistic, whatever the odds, and keep up morale of their pany, even when the going’s tough. It’s important to be very much hands-on, too. A good leader will champion ideas that keep the pany in the forefront.Read the text taken from an article about the development of international managersChoose 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)Search for the “ worldly –wise” pany executivesThe quest for international managers is underway in virtually every industrialized economy , the search hasbeen made urgent by the globalization of world markets and the growth in crossborder mergers and acquisitions. (0) Many firms report being so stretched that they simply donot have enough of the high-quality people they require to lead their their global expansion.Other panies are having difficulties releasing experienced people from existing operations in order tolead new international ventures. There are indications that a shorftage of internationally skilled people may be an important constraint on firms’ international ambitions. (9) However, identifying the need for international managers is easier than developing them.So what makes an international manager? Paul Evans, a professor at INSEAD, the European business school, does notbelieve that any particular nationality produces a more international manager. Neither does he believe that it’s a matter of having the ability to cope with a lifestyle that involves working in Madrid one day, London the next and Berlin the day after. (10) Rather, he believes that the secret of being a good international manger is being fortable with managing diversity.Ford of Europe, which has encouraged the development of international managers for more than 20 years, says thatits managers are globally-minded before they bee global operators. (11) a car that you buy in the UK, for example, is going to be the same car that sells in Germany, Finland and Portugal, so the peop le who are involved in the car’s development have to be aware of the market requirements in all those different countries.Generally, it seems that the only effective way to develop international skills and perspectives is through direct international experience. (12) Such experiences open people’s minds to the fact that things are donedifferently lese where and encourages them to think in a wilder context..Formulating effective strategies for developing a pany’s management resource is a demanding e xercise, with conflicting issues to be solved (13) Another dilemma is whether to use local managers or expatriates.The recruitment and development of effective international managers requires considerable financial resources and can be hard to justify at budget meetings. (14) however , without them, panies will continue to find their expansion plans frustrated by a lack ofinternationally effective managers.A from the moment they join the pany, employees are faced with having to think internationallyB This can be through involvement in international task forces or through living and working abroad.C Should , for example, only an elite few receive international experience in preparation for top jobs or should it be offered to a wider group?D these problems mean that developing managers whothink and operate globally is absolutely vital for panies operating in foreign markets.E Language training , overseas visits and in-house management courses are all expensive to implement.F Jet-setting between international operations merely creates a business equivalent of the over-packaged touristG Companies are now emphasizing the human skills involved in managing other peopleH These trends are pushing panies’ existing management resources to the limitRead the following extract from a book on managementand the questions on the opposite page .For each question 15– 20,mark one letter (A, B, C orD ) on your Answer Sheet for the answer you chooseIn the last few years, managers throughout industryhave seen more changes than many of them could haveexpected to see in their entire working lives having to municate information which often leads to feelings of insecurity has bee a key activity. From being regarded as relatively unimportant in many panies , management employee munication has bee a central corporate need.Concordia International provides a good example of a pany that has adjusted well to the changing needs for munication . since 1995 , Concordia has been turned inside-out and upside-down, to ensure that it is a marketing –led, customer-responsive business, one that looks outwards at customers and petitors, rather than inwards at its own processes and the way things were done in the past. In the last eight years, Concordia has reduced its workforce by more than 80.000 people - or 35% -on a voluntary basis,with further downsizing anticipated.From being an engineering pany, Concordia is now remaking itself as a service pany. The role of employee munication in such a c ontext is to build people’s self-confidence, to persuade them that, although it isinevitable that the changes will go ahead, they also bring with them new opportunities for employees. However, this is not an easy task. People tend to be skeptical of these claims and to feel that they are losing touch with the pany they have worked for over many years. This is understandable, since many of the old certainties are being swept away , including the core activities of the pany they work for. Above all , they have had to face up to the fact that they no longer have a job for life.Research indicates that people respond to this predicament in a variety of ways. The bulk of employeesfall into two main categories in terms of their response to the new situation: on the one hand there are the“ pragmatists” and on the other “ the highly anxious” the former see their job as a means to an end and have a relatively short-term perspective, with strong loyalty to their local term , rather than the pany as a whole . the second category, usually the majority, may respond to threatened changes with a feeling of having been let down, and even feel anger at the pany for what they see as changing the terms of their employment.` The employee munication process needs to be capable of aurately directing its messages at a variety of employee groups and departments within the workforce . this is why middle managers and line managers are so key to munication.They are the people who know about the full rage of concerns among the workforce. The problem in the past was that this crucial area was often the responsibility of a separate, relatively isolated unit. Concordia puts responsibility for munication firmly on line managers. All their research points to the same conclusion: people prefer to get their information face-to-face from their line managers. That is the key relationship and where arguments and hearts and minds –are lost.The general rule in pany munication is to tell employees as much as you can as soon as you can. If you can’t provide details, then at least put the news in context and mit yourself to providing greater detail whenit bees available another rule of pany munication is that there must be a fit between what the pany is telling its employees and what it is telling its shareholders.15: in the last eight years, Concordia hasA made over 80.000 employees reduncdantB pleted a period of downsizingC reduced its workforce of 80.000 by 35%D given 35% of departing employees voluntary redundancy16 from Concordia’s point of view, the role of munication is toA win employee support before going ahead with the changesB change the pany’s core activities.C emphasise the positive aspects of the changesD explain the need for the changes17 what does research show about most employees’ response to change?A they expect it to have a bad effect on the panyB they feel pletely powerlessC they bee less loyalD they fell they have been treated unfairly18 Concordia’s municatio n process mainly relies onA printed municationB departmental headsC personal municationD a separate, specialized unit19 Aording to the writer, what is theguiding ;principle about giving information within an organization?A Never make promises about future developmentsB Give people an overall view at the earliest possible stageC always include plentyof hard informationD Hold back until all the details can be provided20 which of the following would be the most suitable title for the article?A employee attitudes to pany municationB making pany munication more effectiveC Researching pany mmucationD Making employees feel less powerlessRead the article from the Chairman’s statement in a pharmaceutical pa ny’s annual reportChoose the correct word to fill each gap from (A, B, C or D) on the opposite page .For each question 21-30,mark one letter (A, B, C or D) on your Answer Sheet .There is an example at the beginning , (0)Charman’s StatementTwo year ago we undertook to increase our sales and to at least (10) our earnings. We published this (21) in order to demonstrate our resolve to lead the business suessfully through the demanding period following the expiry of patents which had given us the exclusive right to develop two of our major products.I am very please to (22) that we achieved what we set(23) to do. We have achieved increased of 4% and 6% in sales and earnings (24) this es despite considerable losses (25) the expiry of the patents. It is testimony to the depth and vitality of our portfolio of medicines that we have been able to survive the largest single patent expiry our industry has known.Looking further ahead, I firmly believe that this pany can continue to deliver strong , sustainable growth, enabling us to stay at the (28) of the research-based pharmaceutical industry.The power and pace of technological and scientific development, bined with economic and social pressures, are (29) huge changes in our industry, the suessful panies of the future will be those that anticipate and (30) to this change, integrate new technologies effectively, and are closest to their customers. I have full confidence in our ability to remain a major player in ourindustry.21 A warranty B obligation C mitment D contract22 A inform B specify C notify D report23 A in B out c aside D up24A respectively B serially C consecutively D sequentially25 A pursuing B resulting C following D depending26 A contribution B donation C investment D subsidy27 A numbers B figures C sums D points28 A foreground B forefront C lead D advance29 A forcing B impelling C urging D thrusting30 A meet B suit C correspond D respondRead the article below about getting a pay rise.For each question 31-40, write one word in CAPITAL LETTERS on your Answer Sheet .There is an example at the beginning, (0) .There is a monly held view that the only way to get (0) decent pay increase is to move on: to go out into the job market and find someone (31) is prepared to pay you afigure more in line (32) the talents you can offer. Whilst changing employers from time (33) time is something we probably all need to do to advance our careers in the directions we want them to take, it is nevertheless an activity that carries quite definite risks. Irrespective of (34) well we research prospective employers, a new jib is still largely a step into the unknown . It may turn (35) to be a good move or it could prove to be a plete disaster : most of us (36) had experience of both. The point here, though, is that changing employers is not something we want to be doing all the time and certainly not (37) time wefeel the urge for better pay . We’d (38) taking more risks than we needed to just to achieve a pay rise. Getting a pay rise should always be viewed (39) a serious business. There are no quick fixes or gold methods with “ guaranteed“ results. Quick fixes only serve to trivialize the issues and could (40) some circumstances get you into very serous trouble indeed.Read the text below about job vacanciesmost of the lines 41 - 52 there is one extra word.

BEC商务英语(高级)写作模拟试卷114(题后含答案及解析)题型有:1. PART TWOPART TWO1.Your company bought 1,000 boxes of pens from a company on 17th October. During Commodity Inspection, you found some of them leaked and wrote with missing ink. Write a complaint letter to the company:- explaining why you are writing- informing them of the problem- explaining the effect it has on your business- asking for an explanation and suggesting your proposals to solve the problem. Write 200-250 words.正确答案:Mr. Stevens,I am writing to you in connection with the 1,000 boxes of pens we bought from your company on 17th Oct. Unfortunately, we found that some of them leaked and wrote with missing ink during Commodity Inspection.During the inspection process the next day, we spot-checked 150 boxes, each selecting one pen to give it a trial, and the findings are very surprising. Inconceivably, 60% of the pens we checked are either leaking or writing with missing ink.We phoned your company the minute we found the problem, but your company didn’t give us a very satisfying reply, nor did you offer to replace them with good-quality ones right then. That affected us badly as we had received some orders from our customers and charged deposit on some of them. If we can’t send them the prescribed goods in time, we will suffer great loss as well as harm to our credit.Therefore, I hope you can replace the pens with good ones in five days. Since we have had a long cooperation with each other for about five years, and your company has always been very strict with the quality of your products, I believe that you can give a satisfactory explanation and take appropriate measures to solve the problem.Thank you for your prompt attention to the letter. I’m looking for your early reply. Sincerely yours, Tom Chan解析:题目要求写一封投诉信。
