点钟开始,但请各位考生以准考证上的时间为准,提前 30 分钟到达。记得吃早餐。如果方便,可以带瓶水,但是注意不要让水影响到你的试卷和答题卡。提前上厕所。检查自己的是否带了准考证、身份证、铅笔、黑色中性笔、橡皮。进入教室,你会发现黑板上写着各部分的具体考试时间。不要慌张,沉着应对。笔试部分:考试开始后,首先会发给你阅读试卷,考试进行至 50 分钟左右,老师会提醒填涂答题卡。考试进行到 1 个小时左右,老师会收阅读试卷和答题卡,同时发给你写作试卷。写作 45 分钟(此为中级考试时间,高级写作 70 分钟,初级是阅读写作共 90 分钟)完成。结束这两项试题大约在上午 10:45,之后,休息510 分钟,你可以离开座位去厕所。休息结束后,开始听力考试,听力有试音,在休息时间进行。听力考试程序如下:1.发试卷、答题卡。2.考试开始播放录音。拆开试卷,检查试卷。有任何问题,在此时间内提问,英语汉语都可以。3.考试正式开始。4.录音播放完毕后,老师确定 10 分钟后收听力的试卷和答题卡。这里需要说明的是:按照剑桥大学官方的指示,在开始播放录音之后,你才可以拆开试卷,浏览试题。但是中国的考试都是提前发卷的,一般是提前 5分钟。所以大家可以利用这多出来的 5 分钟时间,先浏览第二部分试题,然后再是部分、第三部分。口试部分:笔试当天下午或者第二天上午进行口语考试。其先后顺序是按照姓名首字母排列的。一定要注意自己的编号。口语考试程序如下:1.被叫号的人进入候考室候考。2.在候考室内进行分组。由叫号老师分组,一般是 14 组,28 个人同时候考。需要注意的是:候考大约有 10-15 分钟时间,要耐心等待。利用这段时间你可以和搭档再练练口语,分配好口语第三部分话题任务,定下来由谁先开头,记住两个人别争吵。口语考试采取面试形式,试题由三部分构成,是有关商务话题的简短谈话和讨论。考场内有两位考官,一位负责提问,一位负责评分。评分的考官(assessor)按以下四个标准给分:语法和词汇、谈话组织、发音、互动式交流。提问的考官(interlocutor)对整个测试给个总分。零基础如何备战 BEC如果时光回到小学,我一定把 26 个字母倒背如流。我一定好好学习英语。我发誓,以我现在仅有的 250 块零花钱和电脑里 F 盘的 4G 片子发誓。那时候的我还很萌很天真,虽然上着我最最不喜欢的英语课,但我还要装作听得很认真。谁让英语老师是我的班主任,成绩决定地位,这一潜规则早在小学就已经存在。想当然的,我就是英语老师的“小宝贝儿”,称霸第一排位置达 5 年之久。一日,她在课堂提问,无数积极的小手已经纷纷举起,这场景真像丰收的白萝卜,漫山遍野,差点打到我头。当然,这举手的大军中不包括我这一员。然后,英语老师像农妇一般满意地环视了自己的萝卜地,目光停留在我这个还未破土而出的萝卜苗上。问题来了,请我说一下土豆用英语怎么说,我一下子呆了,脑中千思万绪,脱口而出“TODAY”。结果可想而知,哄笑一场后,土豆就成了我整个小学生涯的外号。我“TODAY”的故事也成了英语老师教育不好好学习英语童鞋的最有利教材。(我长得一点也不土豆,玉树临风形容我还差点火候儿!)我的小学终于毕业了,那还得托 9 年义务教育的福。我妈说我,就你这样的,学习都是浪费纸张。初中和高中我的英语成绩一直是“杀手级”的,全班乃至全年级的平均分都是被我这个“重量级”选手拉低的。考大学那会儿,我小心脏扑扑的,小分数悠悠的,滑着及格分数线,顺理成章地考上了一所二流底端的大学。我相信是金子总会发光的,但就怕是亚光的。上了大学后,我继续保持着我英语的常败记录,还好补考都顺利通过。不过这英文不好,实在是跟不上时代潮流。你说去 KTV 想唱首英文歌吧,因为发音不准而被人嘲笑,出去玩吧,有时同学会三合一语言,开个小差就听不懂他们在说什么了,不利于交流!但最最大的问题的,我快毕业,已经没有时间来混日子了,看着其他同学什么中级口译、大学英语 6 级还有 BEC 都拿到手软,再看看自己的证书。最近的一次还是在我高中的时候,“校优秀运动员“,这怎么和其他人竞争呢?如何拯救我那濒临消失的英语技能成为我最头疼的事情。我开始像无头苍蝇一般四处寻找。各大英语考试像超市一般,琳琅满目。选择企业认可的才是最重要的,别我费劲吧唧地考了,到找工作时,它成一张白纸了。既然要考,就要考一个靠谱的。通过我的一翻咨询、一轮比较,什么沪江、校贴吧、考试吧啊都逛烂了,终于发现一个不错的。剑桥 BEC 商务英语考试。我咨询了我的英语老师,她听说我要考 BEC,惊奇地嘴巴都合不拢,不过她很快恢复了正常,告诉我说 BEC 考试在现在高校比较推崇,如果顺利考出,就说明是真正具有实力的。我听完后顿时觉得充满挑战,热血沸腾啊!仿佛看到了自己拿到证书的样子(幻想 ING)对于 BEC 的含金量更是毫不怀疑,我相信只要考出来我一定会拥有让人羡慕的口语和钱多多的工作的,S MAN 就是我!严肃点!BEC 考试上半年截止日期是 3 月份,而下半年是 9 月份,这两个时间一定要记记牢。全国有许多考点,在网上看了那么多,还不如实际去考点咨询下。经过一番面对面的咨询,我填写了表格,并交纳了从爸爸妈妈那里讨来的“梦想基金”,得到了一堆复习材料。面对它们,我如何下手,我仿佛一个迷茫的厨子,面对着案板上的鱼无从下手。对了,不会做饭的可以参考菜谱,那我这种零基础英文小白,完全可以从历年考题入手啊。马上度娘,输入“剑桥英语”第一个就是,找到“考试商品”点击右侧的“BEC”,就可以了解这个考试的介绍、考试时间、考试形式以及考试题目范围。最最重要的是”备考“,里面全是资料,这就是我的葵花宝典啊,是我迈向成功的踏板!我要把它下载下来,好好研究,深入研究,摸透题型,知己知彼,才能立于不败之地!如果我考出来了,这会对以后找工作,步步升职,都是很有帮助的。为了我那美好钱途,我还在没日没夜啃书,革命尚未结束,同志仍需努力,以此勉励自己吧!BEC
