2、themselves. The most senior staff only have those under them to relate to. This book (21)the idea that all working relationships, including the relationship with one's boss, can and should be managed. You do not have to be (22) than your manager in order to manage the relationship. Nor do you ha

You may be planning to remain under his or her guidance in the future. None of

4、these (26)should alter your relationship with your manager or (27) you off 'managing upwards'. I use this phrase to (28) to the management of one's boss because, for many people on the way up, it is the first relationship they have to get right. You can, of course, get on at work just by

5、 (29) positively to your manager, but that is not likely to be the most successful way to (30) your working life. An active policy of managing upwards will make you more successful and, at the same time, make the business of going to work more enjoyable. It can also be a way to show (31) to your man

8、cting D co-operating 30 A run B forward C move D make 31 A appraisal B value C appreciation D regard 32 A advantage B benefit C side D behalf 33 A posts B roles C positions D acts Managing upwards，打理同上司的关系。 19题，report to，对什么。负责，隶属;从属。用在这里句子意思正好：处于上升阶段的个人须要同他们所从属的人处理好关系。A、B的词后面都接of，account to 是说明的意思，

9、用在这里意思不对。 20题，联系此空上下文，应当是说处理与下属的关系。deal with后接somebody是表示处理和某人的关系。A、B意思不对，C是及物动词，后面不须要with。 21题，promote促进，推动。promote the idea，推动某个想法。 22题，依据意思选词。处理与上司的关系不须要比上司更聪慧。其他几个词用在此处的话都有些怪异，很简单解除。 23题，respect，指方面。与aspect同义。常见的用法。 24题，这个空要联系上下文，并且参考后面的guide。“ he or she may have taught you almost everything you

10、 know”，也就是说TA会对你的工作进行许多指导，因为有taught，所以不是supporter或者helper，选leader又感觉拉远了距离，因此选adviser。 25题，一个让人头疼的商业英语固定词组。line of business，有业务和经营产品的意思。供应几个例句就很好理解含义了： We specialize in this line of business我们特地经营此项服务; Does this item come under your line of business? 我想知道这种产品属您经营的范围吗? You meet some very interesting p

11、eople in my line of business干我们这行，你会遇到许多好玩的人。 26题，依据前后文意思，选factors，因素。 27题，put off一般表示延迟，但它还有一个不太出名的意思是阻碍。see off，送行;keep off,远离;take off，起飞。 28题，依据意思选refer to，提及，描述。 29题，react to，固定搭配，对什么作出反应。用在这里意思也吻合。 30题，the most successful way to (30) your working life，意思上应当填入表示经营、管理等的意思，run有这个意思。C和D用法不对，forwar

12、d something是指转发邮件。 31题，appreciation，表示感谢之情。 32题，on ones behalf，站在某人的立场上，为某人的利益。此处的意思是对他为你所做出的努力表示感谢。 33题，role，职能，角色。为经理腾出空来扮演其他的角色。position是位置，位置始终是经理，没别的;act是行为，法案。 BEC商务英语中级考试真题2 The Myth of the Paperless Office 0 The concept of a paperless office grew with the advance of technology. It was 00 wid

13、ely been claimed that as email became commonplace, people would stop 34 writing memos, keeping bulky files and bringing piles of paper to the meetings. 35 But the reality has in fact been quite the reverse, and paper, having already 36 survived five thousand years of technological change, and has pr

14、oved remarkably 37 resilient. Worldwide, the amount of paper used for each year continues to 38 rise up, although statistics now show a slight reduction in the amount 39 it consumed in the UK. So, has technology failed in its aim to end the use of 40 paper? Max Bray, a business lecturer, thinks offi

15、ce workers still distrust computers. 41 Technology is unreliable in most of people's eyes, he says. 'If you are sent an 42 important email, you are likely to print it, because there is always the 43 fear that it might have get deleted. In contrast, Paul Blunt, a marketing 44 manager for desk

16、top products, who says there has been significant progress in 45 automating a wide range of tasks, even though the transition between has been more of an evolution than a revolution. The Myth of the Paperless Office，无纸化办公室神话。讲的是新技术对现代办公的影响。 34题，meeting在这里不是特别指代，只是叙述的一般状况。不须要运用定冠词the。 35题，正确的 36题，和上面

17、的部分联系起来作为一个整体来考虑。paper, having already survived five thousand years of technological change, and has proved remarkably resilient.中间的部分是插入语，可以不考虑，所以完整的应当是paper has proved remarkably resilient。主谓宾特别齐全，and是多余的。resilient是适应力强的，有弹力的。 37题，used在这里是后置定语，修饰前面的paper，意思是每年运用的纸的总数，不须要for。 38题，持续增长，用rise，rise up

18、是起义的意思。 39题，the amount consumed in the UK，consumed也是后置定语，表示英国的消费总量。it多余。 40题，正确的 41题，in most peoples eyes在大多数人的眼里，of多余。 42题，正确的 43题，might have done表示可能已经做了某事，而这里的意思是指电子邮件等可能会被删除，不用have，去掉。 44题，Paul Blunt, a marketing manager for desktop products, who says there has been significant progress。中间的部分是插入

19、成分，不予考虑。完整的是Paul Blunt (who) says there has been significant progress.主语是人，谓语是says，后面是宾语，成分齐全，who是多余的。 45题，the transition between has been more of an evolution than a revolution.依旧是一个完整的句子，成分齐全，transition是主语，has been是谓语，between是多余的。 BEC商务英语中级考试真题3 Business Meetings It is important that ideas and sug

20、gestions tabled at formal meeting are voiced at the (0) time. This is achieved by keeping to the (19). shown on the agenda. For example, there is no (20).in discussing ideas to do with item six on the agenda when item two has not yet been (21).Such deviations from the agenda may (22). in confusion a

21、mong the people at the meeting; they may also (23). concentration if they see something as irrelevant. To make certain that the meeting proceeds in an orderly fashion, it is therefore useful to (24). some ground rules. First, everyone will need to understand that they must (25).their comments to the

22、 topic under discussion. The Chair can then encourage one person to speak at a (26). , so that any ideas offered can be discussed and (27).Once that person has finished, someone else can put (28).their ideas and so on. If this procedure is adopted, the participants will be able to follow the various

23、 issues in a consistent manner, which will help with the decision-making (29). later on. It will also (30).that the quiet people at meetings get a chance to (31).their say, rather than just their more outspoken colleagues. In (32). , it is often the quiet people at meetings who generate the best ide

24、as, because they are in the (33).of thinking before they speak. 19 A structure B direction C order D arrangement 20 A point B worth C need D reason 21 A brought in B dealt with C catered for D taken off 22 A appear B produce C arise D result 23 A lose B fail C miss D drop 24 A form B establish C des

25、ign D settle 25 A contain B reserve C check D restrict 26 A turn B time C moment D sequence 27A noted B written C regarded D remarked 28 A down B through C away D forward 29 A path B course C process D method 30 A ensure B secure C allow D permit 31 A give B make C have D put 32 A part B reality C c

26、ontrast D case 33 A custom B routine C practice D habit Business Meeting，商业会议。文章一共两段，第一段说开会要根据日程支配来进行，其次段说开会要尽量让大家发言，尤其是在会议上缄默寡言的人。 19题，这一题可能会选择arrangement。order和arrangement的中文意思也的确很相像。只有看英文的意思来进行理解。Order:A sequence or arrangement of successive things.一系列连续事情的支配。因为这里的意思是保持日程表上的支配，日程表上的支配井井有条且有秩序，应当选

27、择order，比arrangement更合适。 20题，there is no point in doing sth.做什么事情没有意义。 21题，书目2上的事情还没有处理就谈论日程表上的书目6是没有意义的。选dealt with。cater for是迎合的意思。 22题，这种偏差(指前面说的书目2没完就探讨书目6)会导致开会的人产生混乱。选result in，导致。 23题，假如他们认为什么是不相关的，就会留意力不集中。lose concentration是地道标准的说法，参考一个例句：I was absent minded and lose concentration very easil

28、y. 24题，建立一些基本规则。地道的用法就是establish the rules。form rules是指表单规则，design rules是指设计规则。 25题，把自己的评论限制在探讨的话题之下。restrict to限制 26题，主席可以激励每个人分别说一会。重点在于理解词组at a time的含义：separately in the specified groups or numbers。看一个例句：He took the stairs two at a time. 27题，这里考察的是note一个不太常见的用法：to give your attention to something

29、 by discussing it or making a written record of it。正好和前面动词discuss相对应，而且做笔记这一点也符合会议的特点。不选remark，因为是开会，更多的是发言、探讨、记笔记，而不是评论。 28题，put forward: suggest, propose 提出。 29题，decision-making process，做确定的过程。 30题，这样可以确保缄默的人在会上也能有发言权。用ensure。不是allow和permit，始终都是允许的，只是没有一个保证的程序。 31题，拥有发言权。say在这里是发言权的意思，动词用have。参考牛津

30、高阶词典上的例句：Can't you keep quiet for a minute and let me have my say? / The judge usually has the final say. have a say in: To have the right to express one's opinion or cast a vote in a pending matter. e.g.: Our boss is friendly and democratic; he always encourages us to have a say in what we will do next. 32题，in reality在现实中。in contrast对比，in case万一。 33题，往往会上缄默的人能想出好点子，因为他们养成了开口前思索的习惯。in the habit of有什么习惯。固定搭配。 BEC商务英语中级考试真题及答案
