BEC中级口语考试考题及参考答案
(1)
如何利用本样题提高综合口语表达水平?
综合口语表达水平指:
表达内容的针对性及准确性、思维的快速反应、清晰的表达条理、措词的准确性及地道的固定表达法、地道的英语句型、正确的语法及标准的语音语调等,对于BEC口语而言,还要求互动的默契。
学员在使用本材料(部分内容为初级考题)时,应该认真做到以下几点:
1.先只看问题,之后马上对表达内容进行思考及对表达内容进行组织,然后进行表达,之后再对照参考答案,以此不断进行修正。
在此过程中,对自己偏差的内容应该进行反思,尽快找出产生错误及偏差的原因。
2.对参考答案的可以套用的短语、句子,尤其是搭配表达法务必要熟练掌握(搭配表达法指动宾搭配、形容词修饰名次及副词修饰动词、形容词和副词)。
3.在明白的基础上,希望同学们不间断地练习。
