內(nèi)容概要
商務(wù)英語證書(BEC)考試是由劍橋大學(xué)考試委員會與教育部考試中心聯(lián)合推出的一項權(quán)威性的考試,該證書在英國、英聯(lián)邦各國及歐洲大多數(shù)國家的商業(yè)企業(yè)部門獲得認(rèn)可,并且能作為考生英語能力的證明。
商務(wù)英語證書(BEC)考試是在被認(rèn)可的BEC考試中心舉行,每年能在6個固定的日期舉行,在中國每年舉行兩次。這些考試的主要對象是那些希望獲得相關(guān)的英語語言證書的學(xué)習(xí)者,考試標(biāo)準(zhǔn)為商務(wù)英語課程提供了理想的重點。
商務(wù)英語證書測試的是以工作場合為背景的英語語言,而不是商務(wù)知識。商務(wù)英語證書(BEC)考試分三個級別,初級(BEC
Preliminary)針對大學(xué)英語二級或高中以上水平的學(xué)生,中級(BEC’Vantage)則主要適合通過了大學(xué)英語四、六級的學(xué)生,同時也適合于從事國際商務(wù)的專業(yè)人士和公司的職員。商務(wù)英語高級(BEC
Higher)由于對英語水平及商務(wù)知識都有較高的要求,證書含金量高,目前參加該級別考試的人數(shù)呈上升的趨勢。
章節(jié)摘錄
A lot of people think the telephone is essential.But I think it is a pest and a timewaster. Very often yu find it impossible to escape from some idle chatter-box or fromsomebody who wants something for nothing.If you have a telephone in your own house,you will admit that it tends to ring when you least want it to ring: when you are asleep,or in the middle of a meal or a conversation, or when you are just going out, or when youare in your bath.Are you strong-minded enough to ignore it, to say to yourself,"Ah,well, it will all be the same in a hundred years time. " You are not. You think there maybe some important news or messages for you.I can assure you that if a message is reallyimportant it will reach you sooner or later.Have you ever rushed dripping from the bath,or chewing from the table, or pushed from the bed, only to be told that you are a wrongnumber? But you will say, you need not have your name printed in the telephone book, andyou can have a telephone which is only usable for outgoing calls.Besides, you will say,isnt it important to have a telephone in case of sudden emergency——illness, accident, orfire? Of course, you are right. But here in a thickly populated country like England, oneis seldom far from a telephone in case of dreadful necessity. I think perhaps Id better try to justify myself by trying to prove that what I like isgood.I admit that in different circumstances, if I were a tycoon, for instance, or bed-ridden I might find a telephone essential.But then if I were a taxi-driver I should find acar essential.Let me put it another way. there are two things for which the English seemto show particular interest: one is mechanical invention, the other is literature.My ownbusiness happens to be with the use of words, but I see I must now stop using them. ForI have just been handed a slip of paper to say that somebody is waiting to speak to me onthe telephone.I think I had better answer it.After all, one never knows, it may besomething important.
