BEC中級寫作指導與範文:備忘錄的寫法

BEC中級開考在即,各位考生都準備好了嗎?中級寫作中可以選擇寫備忘錄,看似不難但還是有很多要注意的地方。下面就看看備忘錄的注意事項和範例吧。

注意事項:

1. 仔細閱讀作文要求,判斷該題是要求你寫備忘錄還是便條?因為這關係到作文行文中語言表達的正式程度。

2. 根據題目要求核對所寫作文是否包括了該寫的三個部分。

核對作文第一稿的長度,必要時可作修改。

3. 寫完後,校對作文中的語法、詞彙及文體是否正確、恰當。

寫給個人的備忘錄:

範例:

你是一家IT公司的人力資源部經理。

你打算請Cooway公司 為你安排一次為期兩天由10人蔘加的團隊組建培訓。

√ 給你的助理寫一個字數為40-50的備忘錄:

√ 告訴她與培訓專案主辦者取得聯絡。

√ 說明專案的參加人員和持續時間。

√ 安排兩個可以利用的週末

提示:

1) 按照英語備忘錄的謀篇習慣,一般直接進入主題,不需要寒暄和問候等客套。

2) 看清角色要求,把握好文體。作為經理,給助手寫備忘錄,行文問題不能太正式,宜直呼其名,而不必套用Mr.或Mrs.等稱呼。通用,結尾處也無須客套,署名也只需要寫名,不需要寫姓。

Jim

Could you please contact Cooway to organize a team-building event for sales staff? There would be ten participants and the course should last for two days. I suggest the weekend of 24/25 November or, if that is not possible, the following weekend.

Thank, Alan

寫給集體(全體員工)的備忘錄:

範例:

你是一家國際大公司的人力資源部經理。你剛剛任命Sally Jolie女士為公司總部的銷售經理。

給總部的全體員工寫一個字數為40-50的備忘錄:

√ 宣佈對Sally Jolie女士的任命。

√ 說明她開始工作的具體時間。

要求總部員工準備歡迎她。

提示:

一般不用信頭稱呼的形式,也不採用在結尾處署上寫信人的名字的方式,而是在備忘錄的開頭處寫明收信人To________,在結尾處寫明具體的寫信人From___________以及主題:Re:__________ 或Subject:____________。

To: Head Office staff

From: Tom Beck

I have the pleasure of announcing that Ms Sally Jolie has been appointed as the new Sales Manager at Head Office. Ms Jolie is due to join us on Monday 15th. Please give her a friendly welcome when she starts work.

範文:

(Sample for reference)

PART ONE

Dear Mr Beard,

Mr. Lee ,one of my old clients ,has interest in our PCX phone machine. He would like to bring 10 samples and some brochures back home to make a trial sale. You may contact him directly on Tel 3108881.

PART TWO

Nowadays, less people like to spend their holidays at home. More people go camping outside or even travel abroad. The changes are caused mainly by three factors. First ,people become more open. Instead of staying at home, they visit foreign countries to know the different races. Secondly ,in the 1990s , house wives are more free from the heavy housework with more and more household utensils. Families are very happy to spend holidays outside with mothers or wives. Thirdly, travelling abroad can also mean enjoying comfortable weather in another country. Therefore less people go to crowded seaside ,they turn to other ways.

BEC考試大致流程:

BEC考試的順序依次是閱讀,寫作,聽力,口語。

考試一般9點鐘開始,但請各位考生以准考證上的時間為準,最好提前30分鐘到達。

記得吃早餐。如果方便,可以帶瓶水,但是注意不要讓水影響到你的試卷和答題卡。提前上廁所。

檢查自己的是否帶了准考證、身份證、鉛筆、黑色中性筆、橡皮。

進入教室,你會發現黑板上寫著各部分的具體考試時間。不要慌張,沉著應對。

筆試部分:

考試開始後,首先會發給你閱讀試卷,考試進行至50分鐘左右,老師會提醒填塗答題卡。考試進行到1個小時左右,老師會收閱讀試卷和答題卡,同時發給你寫作試卷。寫作45分鐘(此為中級考試時間,高階寫作70分鐘,初級是閱讀寫作共90分鐘)完成。結束這兩項試題大約在上午10:45,之後,休息5—10分鐘,你可以離開座位去廁所。

休息結束後,開始聽力考試,聽力有試音,在休息時間進行。聽力考試程式如下:

1.發試卷、答題卡。

2.考試開始播放錄音。拆開試卷,檢查試卷。有任何問題,在此時間內提問,英語漢語都可以。

3.考試正式開始。

4.錄音播放完畢後,老師確定10分鐘後收聽力的試卷和答題卡。

這裡需要說明的是:按照劍橋大學官方的指示,在開始播放錄音之後,你才可以拆開試卷,瀏覽試題。但是中國的考試都是提前髮捲的,一般是提前5分鐘。所以大家可以利用這多出來的5分鐘時間,先瀏覽第二部分試題,然後再是第一部分、第三部分。

口試部分:

筆試當天下午或者第二天上午進行口語考試。其先後順序是按照姓名首字母排列的。一定要注意自己的編號。口語考試程式如下:

1.被叫號的人進入候考室候考。

2.在候考室內進行分組。由叫號老師分組,一般是14組,28個人同時候考。

需要注意的是:候考大約有10-15分鐘時間,要耐心等待。利用這段時間你可以和搭檔再練練口語,分配好口語第三部分話題任務,定下來由誰先開頭,記住兩個人別爭吵。

口語考試採取面試形式,試題由三部分構成,是有關商務話題的簡短談話和討論。考場內有兩位考官,一位負責提問, 一位負責評分。評分的考官(assessor)按以下四個標準給分:語法和詞彙、談話組織、發音、互動式交流。提問的考官(interlocutor)對整個測試給個總分。

BEC中級考試

我剛剛參加完商務英語中級考試,考試前的一些事情大家分享一下。

我們是8:00到考試地點,然後在考試的樓門口看自己的考場序號,然後進考場,進考場的時候,不可以帶筆帶,只准待鉛筆,水筆,橡皮,身份證,准考證。其他的什麼都不可以帶,手錶也不可以。考試前監考老師會一個人一個人的進行掃描,摸兜。

然後距離每項考試結束前10分鐘不可以上廁所,聽力考試時不可以上廁所。

下午考口語時,100個人在一個教室理面候考,監考老師回一次叫14個考生準備,兩個人一組分成7組在教室外面候考。

口試共15個考場,每個考場兩個考官,口試不難,只要流利就好。這是我考試總結的。

The Importance of “Style” in Personal and Business Writing

Some of the most basic tips to remember when writing include:

Avoid the use of slang words

Try not to use abbreviations (unless appropriately defined)

Steer away from the use of symbols (such as ampersands [&])

Clichés should be avoided, or at the very least, used with caution

Brackets are used to play down words or phrases

Dashes are generally used for emphasis

Great care should ALWAYS be taken to spell the names of people and companies correctly

Numbers should be expressed as words when the number is less than 10 or is used to start a sentence (example: Ten years ago, my brother and I…). The number 10, or anything greater than 10, should be expressed as a figure (example: My brother has 13 Matchbox cars.

Quotation marks should be placed around any directly quoted speech or text and around titles of publications.

Keep sentences short

While the above tips cover the most common mistakes made when writing letters, memos and reports, they in no way cover everything you need to know to ensure your written communications are accurate and understood.
