考完四六级,要不要考BEC?
出国留学,更建议大家准备雅思或者托福; 如果是提高自己的职场竞争力,更建议报考BEC,因为其报名费相对较低,而且证书终身有效。 BEC考试的认可度? 对于职场白领,以及想进500强的学生来说,业内有这么一个公式:雅思托福>BEC>托业(认可度/含金量) BEC考试认可度-全球企业和机构名录选摘(截至2012年11月23日): 从上图可以看出BEC考试的认可度:BEC高级>BEC中级>BEC初级 中级和高级受认可的公司数量相差的不大。 就好比四六级,假如→ 认可四六级的公司数量相差不大,但如果一个人有四级证书,另一个有六级证书;如果你是HR,你会更青睐哪一个呢? 扫码免费定制BEC备考方案↑ BEC考试内容 四六级考试主要考查在校大学生的实际英语能力, 而BEC考试则注重考察考生在真实工作环境中的英语交流能力。 剑桥商务英语证书BEC分为三个级别: BEC初级(Preliminary Level) BEC中级(Vantage Level) BEC高级(Higher Level) 考试由阅读、写作、听力和口语四个部分组成,试题中词汇、文章类型以及情景设置都与商务英语相关。 BEC考试难度 就BEC自身而言,那难度自然是:初级<中级<高级 如果和雅思相比较的话 如果和其他英语考试对比的话,大概是以下的对应关系: BEC初级——相当于CET四级中低分,价值不大,不建议考。 BEC中级——相当于CET四级高分及以上水平,或英语专四及以上水平;或相当于雅思6.0-6.5分;对比托福,BEC中级对应托福95分左右。 BEC高级——相当于CET六级高分,英语专八,或雅思7.0-7.5分。所以,如果能考到BEC高级,那就相当厉害了,基本上HR都会眼前一亮。 不过,这也只是作为一个参考,两种考试的性质本来就不同,四六级考到高分并不代表BEC就一定考得好。 1. 两者考察的方向不同 四六级考察的是英语语言水平,偏应试; BEC考察的是在真实的商务环境中,英语的应用能力,有许多在日常学习中接触不到的财经和商务词汇。 2. 口语考察 四六级考试中的口语考试并非是强制要求考的 但是BEC考试中口语是必考环节 这对于咱们中国的考生来说,也算是一个挑战,因为咱们一直是偏应试教育,阅读和写作一般偏强的,听力和口语稍弱。 看到这里,我想大多数人心中都有了打算吧! 如果现在还没有主意,那不如就先学习吧,说不定哪天就用上了这个证书呢?

雅思6分是什么水平?
习好,做到能很自然地说出来,因为如果被考官判定为memorize是反而会失分的。如果有人能陪你一起练习,帮你指出问题,那进步就会更快。 3. 写作一定要下笔写。 下笔写作文一共有两个作用: (1)发现自己的问题。看看自己的问题是想不到观点,还是想到了观点不会展开,还有总结写作中出现的语法错误。 (2)提升自己的写作速度。参加纸笔考试的同学建议大家把作文答题纸打印下来,平时就在答题纸上写作,这样不仅可以知道自己大概写到哪个位置字数就够了,省去了在考场上数字数的时间,还能帮助自己把握写作的节奏。和口语一样,写作如果有专业的老师进行批改,指出逻辑和语法的问题,那么进步会更快。 4. 平时可以有意识地使用英语。 大家在备考的时候就可以有意识地给自己营造一些英文环境。比如每天听BBC的新闻,记笔记的时候有意识地使用英语,找一个也在备考雅思的小伙伴一起每天用英语进行日常对话二十分钟等等方式来让自己把英语的使用日常化。 看了这么多,如果你还想了解更多雅思备考指南及关键解题技巧,沪江网校雅思托福备考课程,助你快速通关考试,可免费领取👇 针对雅思托福小白的入门课 点击立即免费领取>> 针对雅思托福备考的冲分课 点击立即免费领取>> 针对弱项环节重点突击 点击立即免费领取>> 祝大家早日顺利上岸!

It’s now a “global village” where countries are only seconds away by fax or phone or satellite link. And, of course, our ability to benefit from this high-tech communications equipment is greatly enhanced by foreign language skills. Deeply involved with this new technology is a breed of modern business people who have a growing respect for the economic value of doing business abroad. In modern markets, success overseas often helps support domestic business efforts. Overseas assignments are becoming increasingly important to advancement within executive ranks. The executive stationed in another country no longer need fear being “out of sight and out of mind.” He or she canbe sure that the overseas effort is central to the company’s plan for success, and that promotions often follow or accompany an assignment abroad. If an employee can succeed in a difficult assignment overseas, superiors will have greater confidence in his or her ability to cope back in the United States where cross-cultural considerations and foreign language issues are becoming more and more prevalent (普遍的). Thanks to a variety of relatively inexpensive communications devices with business applications, even small businesses in the United States are able to get into international markets. English is still the international language of business. But there is an ever-growing need for people who can speak another language. A second language isn’t generally required to get a job in business, but having language skills gives a candidate the edge when other qualifications appear to be equal. The employee posted abroad who speaks the country’s principal language has an opportunity to fast-forwardcertain negotiations, and cam have the cultural insight to know when it is better to move more slowly. Theemployee at the home office who can communicate well with foreign clients over the telephone or by fax machine is an obvious asset to the firm. 练习题: Choose correct answers to the question: 1. What is the author’s attitude toward high-tech communications equipment? A. Critical. B. Prejudiced. C. Indifferent. D. Positive. 2. With the increased use of high-tech communications equipment, businesspeople ________. A. have to get familiar with modern technology B. are gaining more economic benefits from domestic operations C. are attaching more importance to their overseas business D. are eager to work overseas 3.

A. being unable to think properly for lack of insight B. being totally out of touch with business at home C. missing opportunities for promotion when abroad D. leaving all care and worry behind 4. According to the passage, what is an important consideration of international corporationsin employingpeople today? A. Connections with businesses overseas. B. Ability to speak the client’s language. C. Technical know-how. D. Business experience. 5. The advantage of employees having foreign language skills is that they can ________. A. better control the whole negotiation process B. easily find new approaches to meet market needs C. fast-forward their proposals to headquarters D. easily make friends with businesspeople abroad 参考答案: 1.[D] 事实辨认题。题目询问的是作者对于髙科技通讯设备的态度是什么。根据文章的第1段特别是最后一句中的benefit,可推断作者是持肯定态度的,即答案为D。 2.[C] 事实辨认题。根据第2段第1句中的who have a growing respect... abroad可看出,随着髙科技通讯设备的广泛使用,商学人们越来越重视海外商务的经济价值,C与之一致。" 3.[C] 语义推断题。根据第3段第2、3句中说的“他确信国外的事务对公司的成功计划至关重要,派往国外时或之 后常能得到升迁。”可知,在海外的管理人员不再会担心被遗忘而错过升职机会,因此“眼不见,心不念”即为C“在国外时错过国内升职机会”。 4.[B] 事实辨认题。题目询问的是根据短文,当今在雇佣雇员时,国际化的公司应该着重考虑什么。这是第5段的话题,其中核心词是language,只有B“会说顾客的语言”符合。 5.[A] 事实辨认題。题目询问的是具有外语能力的雇员的优势究竟是什么。根据最后一段第1句可知,“派往国外的雇员若能讲该国的主要语言,就有机会加快谈判进程,而且能知道什么时候最好放慢节拍。” A“具有外语 能力的雇员的优势就是他们可以)更好地控制整个谈判的过程”与之一致,故为答案。 以上就是关于“2024年12月英语四级阅读理解模拟:学习外语”的全部内容啦,祝同学们早日通过四级。

2024年12月英语六级阅读理解模拟真题:大学专业选择
理了2024年12月英语六级阅读理解模拟真题:大学专业选择,一起来看看吧。 2024年12月英语六级阅读理解模拟真题:大学专业选择 One of the bitterest and most time-worm debates in student union bars up and down the country is resolved as academic research confirms that in financial terms at least, arts degrees are a complete waste of time.Getting through university boosts students’earnings by 25%, on a weighted average, or $220,000 over theirlifetime, according to Professor Ian Walker of Warwick University-but if they study Shakespeare or the peasants’revolt instead of anatomy of contract law, those gains are likely to be completely wiped out. The government is about to allow universities to charge students up to $3,000 a year for their degrees, arguing that it’s a small price to pay compared with the financial rewards graduates reap later in life. But Prof. Walker’s research shows there are sharp variations in returns according to which subject a student takes. Law, medicine and economics or business are the most lucrative choices, making their average earnings 25% higher, according to the article, published in the office for national statistics’monthly journal. Scientists get 10-15% extra. At the bottom of the list are arts subjects, which make only a “small ”differenceto earnings- a small negative one, in fact. Just ahead are degrees in education-which leave hard pressed teachers anaverage of 5% better off a year than if they had left school at 18. “it’s hard to resist the conclusion that what students learn does matter a lot; and some subject areas givemore modest financial returns than others,” Prof. Walker said. As an economist, he was quick to point outthat students might gain non-financial returns from arts degrees:”Studying economics might be very dull, forexample, and studying post-modernism might be a lot of fun.” 练习题: Choose correct answers to the question: 1.What is the best title for the passage? A.Professor Walker’s Research B.How to Make Big Money. C.Differences Between Science and Arts Degrees. D.Studying Arts Has Negative Financial Outcome. 2.Universities charge students a rather high tuition mainly because_____ provide the students with very prosperous subjects to learn assume that their graduates can earn much more than they had paid don’t get financial support from the government need much revenue to support the educational expenses 3.The word “lucrative”(Line 1, Para. 4) most probably means _____ le ve able le 4.Law, medical and business graduates could earn 25% more than ______ ion graduates graduates who had not studied at the university average income 5.We can safely conclude that the author ______ s arts degrees as meaningless this result disappointing and unfair the students to think twice before they decide what to learn in college that arts degrees are still rewarding despite its scarce financial returns 1.[D] 主旨大意题。本文为Walker教授的研究成果,旨在说明不同专业的毕业生有不同的经济回报,并非要传授发财心得或者比较文理科的异同。文章首句即为本题解题关键,故D正确。 2.[B] 事实细节题。定位至第3段第1句。本文只有这一句与收取学费有关,后一个分句即前一个分句的理由,抓住其中隐含的因果关系就不难找到正确答案。 3.[C] 词义理解题。通过下文数据earnings 25% higher和get 10-15% extra可以推测lucrative大意应为“给人带来丰厚收入的”,故选C。 4.[C] 事实细节题。第4段中出现了几个比较数字,考题要求找到此段首句提到的收人增加25%的参照点。第2段第1句中的Getting through university 表明这类学生收人增加25%的参照对象是没读大学的人,且从第4段第3句中的the list和第4句即可以确定这一段是在比较大学毕业与18岁毕业(即没读大学)收入的不同,因此C正确。 5.[D] 推理判断题。结论往往出现在文章结尾,要想答对此题,一定要仔细体会本文末句。本文虽然重点讨论文科没有经济效益,但是作者并没有做出主观判断,故A、B、C都不正确,而作者在文章最后讲到了人文学科虽然经济效益不佳但学习过程更有趣,故D符合作者意思。
