　　劍橋商務英語中級考試的聽力部分是應考學生的難點。針對學生在實際考試中的兩大難題——對商務詞匯和背景知識的缺乏以及考試中聽力與讀題、做題的矛盾,根據(jù)考試聽力部分的內(nèi)容和商務英語的文體特點、詞匯特點,從認知角度探討了商務英語聽力和閱讀的關(guān)系和聽力技巧,并提出了幾點備考對策。

　　聽力Part2(較難)

　　解題步驟:1.先把八個選項進行概括,劃出關(guān)鍵詞

　　2.通過看選項,可以知道每個選項所表達的情感(生硬,委婉,平常),然后用符號進行分類,這樣在聽聽力的時候可以縮小選擇范圍.一般領(lǐng)導人會用比較生硬的口吻,而委婉的當然是員工了,記住生硬并不是聲大,呵呵.還有也可能2人都是官,這時要看官的大小.

　　PART3(最難)

　　這一部分,需要你先看好每一個選項,分清人物,看好是幾個人在說話,誰是官,誰是職員,誰的官比較大,這樣你在聽的時候就會分清主次.記住要聽說話者的語氣.

　　BEC聽力技巧總結(jié):

　　1.問啥啥錯:信息提供者重要,信息接受者干擾!如下:A是信息接受者,B是信息提供者

　　A:Sales director?

　　B:Plant managers.

　　2.注意說話者的語氣

　　3.注意同意互換(同義詞,同源詞,同義詞組):

　　如:maintain=update,information=detail,have plan for=intend to,priority=main concern

　　self-employed=be in charge of my own business

　　4.注意商務知識的積累,和詞匯的積累
