專八口語須知及歷年真題

1、2005全國高校專業(yè)八級口試考試須知及輔導(dǎo)材料考生須知全國英語專業(yè)八級口語測試采用在語言實驗室中進行錄音口試的方式?？荚囈笈c考題已事先全部錄在考帶上，錄音機的開停，全部由電教人員控制。 考生則須根據(jù)錄音考帶上的要求 逐項完成任務(wù)?？荚嚱Y(jié)束后，將所有考生的磁帶寄到指定的評分點，統(tǒng)一進行評分。考試包括三項任務(wù)。 第一項任務(wù)為英譯中、第二項任務(wù)為中譯英。第一、二項的口譯內(nèi)容均已錄在考帶上。每項任務(wù)的錄音播放兩遍。第一遍播放講話的全文，目的是讓考生了解口譯 材料的背景和內(nèi)容， 此時考生不需要進行口譯。 第二遍分段播放所需口譯的內(nèi)容?？忌梢赃吢犨呑龉P記。每段后有提示開始口譯和停止口譯的“叮咚”聲。考

2、生在聽到“叮咚”聲后，開始口譯；當(dāng)再次聽到“叮咚”聲時，則停止口譯，同時準備聽譯后面的句子。一般情況下， 考生所需口譯的內(nèi)容只是講話全文的一部分。第三項任務(wù)要求考生根據(jù)所給的文字材料表述自己的看法，準備時間為四分鐘，個人表述看法的時間為三分鐘。以上三項任務(wù)均在語言實驗室中規(guī)定的同一時間進行，考生的講話時間都有嚴格的限制， 考生應(yīng)充分利用這一規(guī)定的時間， 盡量多說一點，因為足夠的信息量是正確判分的基礎(chǔ)， 考生 講得太少會影響自己的考試得分。考生進入語言實驗室后必須注意以下問題：1 .不得擅自擺弄電教設(shè)備的任何開關(guān)。2 .務(wù)必根據(jù)各自的考號對號入座。如有差錯，必須向監(jiān)考教師報告。3 .按照錄音磁帶

3、上的要求，逐項完成任務(wù)。4 .不得擅自提前將訂書機訂好的第三項考題內(nèi)容拆開，該任務(wù)要求考生個人獨立完成，準 備時不得與他人講話討論，如違反上述要求，一律視為作弊。5 .錄音時，注意控制講話的音量。如果聲音太低，則會影響口試成績。6 .錄音時要注意力集中， 從技術(shù)上講，語言實驗室中考生周圍的聲響通常不會影響錄音質(zhì) 量。7 .如果在規(guī)定時間之內(nèi)提前完成了任務(wù)，請安心等待下一項任務(wù)的要求。英語專業(yè)八級口試樣題一、2003年4月考題Task One: Interpreting from English into ChinesePlease do not do interpreting when you
