【参考范例】

Packing of products concerns the fate of products because it arouses people’s desire for purchase. When deciding on packaging for products, we should take several things into consideration.

First of all, the image catches the eye of potential customers, people are sometimes skin deep when surrounded by a variety of products, their decisions are simply based upon the packaging, therefore a thoughtful design in color, shape and packaging materials is crucial in winning customer’s favor.

On the other hand, the cost of packaging should be carefully dealt with because it is contained in the prices of the products. Increased price will make the products less competitive in a buyer’s market. After all, in comparison with packaging, people are more sensitive to price. Last but not least, our resources are limited and some are even non-renewable. Once the products are opened up, the wrapper are useless, so it is expected that designers can develop further uses of packaging materials or at least make them environmental-friendly.

There is no doubt that…..

I am into the first opinion..

【句型点击】

When selecting staff for promotion, several factors should be taken into consideration, to begin with, the attitude to the work is one of the most fundamental elements. I believe attitude is everything. It is not uncommon to find workers who have great talents but are reluctant to make full contribution in their position, the point is, you have to love what you are doing and you have to try your utmost and reserve no effort to do it.

Secondly, current performance is also very important, because it is obvious that attitude and effort have to be measured in a certain way so that you can know everyone’s capability.

Thirdly, you can’t ignore career potential and adaptability, almost in every company, we can find employees who are excellent individuals

but fail to cooperate in a team, these elements are all very essential in one’s career. Admittedly, it is not very likely to find all of them in one person, and then you have to consider about the specific position and grant priority to one of them.

Topic B: WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN ……

Considering a career change

Further study or training

Opportunities for future promotion

【词汇&短语】

It is more essential to …….。………更加重要。

………is a wiser choice. ……..是更明智的选择。

We are strongly tempted to……..

It is apt to……..

I would choose A over B.

表示两者缺一不可

They are two sides of the same coin.

They are interdependent and are equally important.

A is the bearing of B.

It is impossible to talk about A Without mentioning B.

【参考范例】

Well, career change. That is an interesting topic. As the old saying goes, look before you leap. You’d better be very careful when you make such big decisions. To begin with, further study and training has to be taken into account .the reason is quite obvious with improved and enhanced skills; your job will be safer. Furthermore, opportunities for further promotion also play important roles here. Promotion means more salary and therefore better living conditions. Therefore, we are strongly attempted to choose it, and for some people, this is even the ultimate goal of their job. But it is only half the story. You have to consider about the best development of your potential. In other words, you have to be very clear about your personal interest is and try to enjoy your work and find joy in it, I believe due to different value systems, people may make different choices upon the same thing. As long as I am concerned, I will choose a career that I can fulfill my dream. I mean, if it is not highly paid, I don’t care, I will choose a career I like over opportunity of promotion.

Last but not the least

In other words

【参考范例】

Advertising campaign is one of the most essential chains in marketing. Through advertising campaign, the products can be well-known to the

audiences. To achieve this goal, it is better to do a market research beforehand. Only in this way you can know the need of the consumers and meet their acquirements accordingly. Therefore, we should put it as the first consideration. After this step, it is time to select appropriate media. Sometimes it is more preferable to find an advertising agency because they know better what the best channel is for your product and service; sales promotion advertising; billboard advertising; outdoor advertising; audio-visual advertising, or whatever it is. You know, you have plenty of choices. On the other hand, they have a professional team to design an innovative advertisement for you. If an advertisement is full of creativity, it will earn brand preference and loyalty of the consumers and maintain a sustainable market. Last but not the least, no matter how flexible your promotion methods are, the credibility of the product is the most important.

【参考范例】

When choosing a transport for a business trip, convenience should come first. I mean, other things being equal, you should choose the one that takes your minimal effort. In business world, time is money. You don’t want delayed departure time or unexpected stop-over on the way. At the same time, it is not uncommon to refund a ticket or change a one-way ticket to a round trip ticket, if the transportation company can deal with these things effectively, undoubtedly we will choose it. Secondly, cost-effectiveness is also important. If a transportation company can offer us excursion pass, why not make it our choice Thirdly, the quality of the transportation should also be concerned. A good rest during the trip can make you in a good shape to seal the deal with your business partners. Lastly, if the transporter can offer some package deal such as hotel reservation, it would be a wise choice.

If you are aiming for a promotion, primarily, you should show a satisfactory performance. That is to say, if you want to be in charge of something, you start from small errands and show your long-range merits. You have to show people what you are capable of. This is very crucial. Secondly, demonstrate your loyalty to the company, because no manager wants an outstanding but undependable to take an administrative role and supervise a department. Thirdly, show your intelligence in the field you are working, face to the challenge that others fear to take, and then, your professional skills would be known to all. The last point, try to build an easy-going and enthusiastic personality. A brilliant yet not welcomed employee is definitely not qualified for a promotion.

……..is the soul of an enterprise

……..is no exception….

【参考范例】

If you are in the exporting business for the first time, you have to build some personal contact with foreign importers in order to export goods or services. The two sides should have a rough idea of the approach to business and commercial integrity of each other, and then conclude the exporting business. Besides, some professional advice from experience exporters can do no harm. Personally, I believe quality is the soul of an enterprise. It is no exception with exporting. To maintain a sound reputation, you have to put quality as the first consideration. All products have to go through strict inspection before they are launched into the market. Lastly, negotiating skills can help a lot. Mutual profit is the common desire of both the exporter and the importer, it is therefore preferred if contracts are honored and commercial integrity is maintained. It is a permanent principle.

I’d like to point out…..

Let me emphasize ……

【参考范例】

When dealing with complaint from clients, we should always start off with an apology. A customer for us is just a master for his servant. It is unwise to argue with our clients especially when they are angry. An immediate apology is what clients down quickly. Until then can we clarify the facts and suggest a solution to the problem. Clients expect their complaints to be taken seriously and look forward to speedy replies, so well-drilled customer service representatives should insure clients

that their problems will be taken care of quickly with limited time.

In addition, as an important part of dealing with complaints from clients, we must follow up the solutions and clients feedbacks. We should make phone calls to clients and ask them whether their problems have been successful solved and probably we may apologize again for the inconveniences we have brought to them clients will be happy with such calls and change attitudes towards our company. A prosperous business depends on returned customers and reputations. It is common to have clients’ complaints, but the key lies in our increasingly improved product quality and customer service. We must have every clients feel that he/she is valued and respected.

There are two points I’d like to make…….

By and large….. 总的来说….

解释前面所说的话

That is to say……..

To put it in another way…..

What I mean is…..

【参考范例】

When setting price for new products, first we should take production costs into consideration, production costs should be covered in prices and selling below cost can not help businesses maintain a healthy development. For newly-established companies, however, in order to capture the public attention to their companies and brand, they might set prices below their product costs for a brief period.

Secondly, competitor’s prices is another important factor in pricing, today’s market is mainly buyer’s market when all customers would go for higher quality with lower price. To survive the cruel competition with rivals, we should always keep competitor’s price in mind. Customers will make decisions based upon prices, service and product quality. Of course, we can’t expect occupy the market by lowering price blindly, which will destroy the stability of business.

What’s more, when pricing, we should clarify our target customers. Different types of customers have different senses of prices. Some customers believe that higher prices mean higher quality, while others only pay attention to performance price ratio. Correct pricing policies should satisfy different tastes of potential customers.

Topic C: WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN ……

Aiming to reduce staff turnover

Financial incentives

Career structure

【词汇&短语】

Well, what I’m trying to say is that……

That is exactly my opinion.

I think/feel/believe that…….

You mentioned that……., but, in my view….

Just let me finish.

【参考范例】

Managers and company owners have always been frustrated by staff turnover and they are trying to figure out what they can do to retain people longer. Fundamentally staffs do the jobs they are paid for. If they feel being under paid, they will gradually lose interest and enthusiasm in their work and finally find a better-paid job that they are worth. Therefore, financial incentives are important retaining staff. If staffs are satisfied with their financial benefits, they normally could deal with the negative feelings toward their jobs.

Career structure is another important element in reducing staff

turnover. Nowadays, with increased population mobility, people changed jobs more frequently then they used to. If they are not motivated in their present jobs, they probably would go for new challenges in life. So employers should pay close attention to the career development of their employees and confirm their confidence in the future of themselves and the business they work for.

In addition, employers should vigorously develop their enterprise culture and cultivate sense of belonging among employees. In that way, staff would hesitate to leave their jobs because they are already regarded themselves as the part of units.

剑桥BEC真题中级第四辑口语解析(Part-3-Discussion)

BEC中级口语(整理版)

BEC中级口语第一讲 Ⅰ Presentation Example PART 2: Mini-presentation A: WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN…? Selecting applicants for a job W orking experience P ersonal qualities Sample 1 I choose topic A-what is important when selecting applicants for a job. As to this topic, as far as I am concerned, there are 3 things to consider. First, I think working experience is very important when selecting applicants. Applicants who have already had the work experience in the relevant fields will learn the new job easier and quicker. And it will also save the company a lot of training fees if the applicant has related experience. Second, we must consider the personal qualities of the applicants, such as personality and health. Companies tend to employ people whose character fits a special job. For example, consulting company tends to employ applicant who is analytical and knowledgeable, but advertising agents like their employees to be energetic and creative. Third, I believe language is of great importance when selecting applicants. Nowadays, we do business with people from all over the world. Always we buy goods from Africa, and sell our electronic product to Europe; a foreign language especially English is needed if the company wants to expand to the world. Applicants who can speak one or more foreign languages will have a better chance to get the job. Sample 2 As we all know, the criteria used by HR professionals in screening and selecting applicants normally include such factors as working experience, personal qualities and communicative skills. Firstly, we pay a lot of attention to working experience of the applicant. A person with a solid record of related experience is more likely to fit in with a new company. Therefore he or she can be trusted to fulfill the tasks and solve the problems in a more professional and competent way. In addition to this, we also look at the personal qualities of the applicant. Does he or she has integrity, perseverance or ‘can do’spirit? Surely any organization can benefit from the reliability, devotion and enthusiam of its employees. Finally, good communicative skills such as interpersonal skills and team spirit are also becoming an important precondition in selecting qualified employees. B: WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN…? Preparing for a job interview S tudying the job advertisement Finding out about the company Before you go for an interview, you must make preparations so as to face the interviewer with more confidence. They include studying the job advertisement, finding out about the company, preparing yourself psychologically, etc.

BEC中级口语考试：基础篇

BEC中级口语考试：基础篇 1.1第一部分考试形式 (Test format of Part 1) 在第一部分考试中，考官就考生的个人情况或工作、学习情况向其提问，考生作答。然后考官再提问，考生再作答。考官一般会对每个考生进行两轮提问，每一轮三至四个问题，随后转向另一名考生，在两名考生间交替进行，直到规定时满为止，一般大约3 分钟。这部分考试的特点是：话题涵盖的范围一般比较简单、浅显，不会超出日常会话的范畴，而且大部分话题都比较类似，是由主考官从剑桥大学考试委员会印发的Question List上随机挑选的。考前的充分准备足以保证考生应付大多数问题。而且在第一部分考核过程中，考官提问的问句大部分都是简单句，一般不超过15个单词，清晰易懂。 1.2应试建议 (Tips on how to cope with Part 1) (1)Greet upon entering the exam room. 进入考场后，考生应当充满自信，自然大方地向考官问候致意。话不需多，但自然、新切的问候语，可以给考官留下良好的第一印象。常用的问候语包括： Good morning, sir / miss / madam. Good afternoon, sir / miss / madam. Nice to meet you. （注：有两位男老师在场，可以称呼gentlemen. 有两位女老师在场，可以称呼misses. 有一位男老师和一位女老师在场，可以干脆免去后面的敬呼语，或直接采纳上面第三种问候方式，以免去敬呼语太长、太繁琐的尴尬。Madam 一般用于明显很年长的女教师，否则改用miss，因为女性对年龄认可度比较敏感。） (2)Relax yourself, yet do avoid over relaxing yourself. 大部分考生都有过这样的经历：平时跟同伴一起练口语的时候说得挺流畅的，但一到课堂上回答老师问题时，或是一进入口语考试房间时，所有头脑中的思路都不翼而飞，头脑一片空白。因此，在很多情况下，口语考试表现不好并不是口语水平问题，而是过分紧张导致的发挥失常。因此，平时试着让自己多练练紧张时放松的能力，对于克服进入考场后突然情绪紧张导致的发挥失常很有帮助。 (3)Familiarize yourself with the pronunciation and intonation of the interlocutor and the other candidate. 由于考生来自不同的地域，很多方音重的考生在说英语的时候也同样如此，这在很大程度上会影响其他同一考场的考生的理解和反应。考官尽管发音准确，但因为不熟悉他（她）的语音语调，也有可能造成误解。因此，进入考场后，要尽快熟悉他们的语音语调及语速，以免由于误听导致反应错误。 (4)Be precise in understanding the questions. 考官的提问也好，同伴的问题也好，没听清的情况下切不可盲目作答，一定要问清楚问题是什么。考生要清楚的一点是，BEC口语考试是“口语”考试，而非听力考试，也许没听清对方的问题会影响你的分数，而在没听清问题的情况下盲目作答而导致答非所问，更会真正丢分。在以往的考试中，有些考生由于事先针对第一部分做了充分的准备，因此在考官提问的时候没有全神贯注，而是凭着准备过的问题想当然，背诵事先准备好的答案。这种错误是极不应该的，不仅会给考官留下作弊（cheating ）的不良印象，还会由于听力水平不佳而被扣分。要求对方重述问题的常用句型包括： Pardon, please? I beg your pardon? Sorry, could you please say that again? I’m sorry, but I didn’t quite catch you. Would you please repeat what you’ve
