备考2021年BEC商务英语考试的常见问题和解决办法

发布时间:2021-09-09


最近很多小伙伴都积极地开始备考2021年BEC考试了,为了帮助大家顺利通过考试,接下来51题库考试学习网就分享一下备考过程中的问题和解决办法,一起来看看吧。

一、缺少商务领域知识

有的学员多年学习英语,甚至是英语专业毕业,英语足够好,语法、词汇以及听说能力具佳,但通过商务英语学习,仍然无法获得在商务场景下运用语言的能力。所以,学员们往往心态急切,要么是工作的人士,提高商务英语技能为工作需要,要么是即将毕业的学生,即将走入职场,试图增加竞争的砝码。

为了增加对商务英语词汇的敏感性,需要了解涉及各个职能和行业的商务背景知识,前者常与某个职位相联系,后者常与某个场景相联系,所以在学习过程中,要侧重提高在商务环境下应用语言的能力,以及涉及到的基本的商务背景知识。商务人士的说话语气和交流思维,特别是英美人士的商务思维和日常生活中的思维是不同的。语言是思维的载体。思维方式的不同,造成了语气和语言表达的不同。这也是Business English和General English的相异之处。

二、英语基础薄弱

有的学员拥有多年的工作经验和丰富的商务背景知识,但英语基础不好,听说读写能力都有待提高,以适应或应对工作中的对外沟通的需要。

商务英语学习应该明确动机,就是学习最实用的东西。对于以应试为目的的学生,如果只是从纯应试的角度来入手的话,很难提高实用技能。当然商务英语考试(e.g. BEC & TOIEC)是很大程度上属于能力考试,出题方面会最大限度的避免高分低能的现象。商务英语的教学经验告诉我们,要增加学习的效率,要将应试与实用技能有机结合。实用的不一定是商务英语,而商务英语一定是实用的。商务英语课程讲得不是纯商务(Business Background),也不是公共英语(General English),讲的是英语在商务环境下的应用,可以称为英语商务,或商务英语。所以离开商务背景谈商务英语学习是没有意义的。学习的最好状态不但要通过考试,更是要课上学到的东西出了教室就可以派上用场。

三、缺少实际运用

模拟真实案例学习的最大好处在于,让学习进入实战状态,感受类似真实的商务场景。任何商务案例(Business Real-case)都是一个实用的“小故事”,考生应把自己当成故事中的主角,或是这个场景即将发生在他们身上。这样的“故事”,可以帮助考生消化语言,提高技能。通过案例学习不但实现了“实践”,还学到了实用的理念。比如:由于商务英语表达的得体性(Gentle & Courteous),考生应该学会在商务环境高效率沟通的方式:还包括最实用的技巧。比如:由于商务英语传达信息的有效性(Informative),考生应该学会为了达到商务目的而进行的自我介绍(Purposeful Self-introduction)。

以上就是2021年商务英语考试备考的问题和解决办法,希望对各位考生有所帮助。大家在学习过程中一定要尽量克服这些问题困难,做到及时查漏补缺,这样才能一次性通过考试领证。
