2024商務(wù)英語備考：哪些真題素材適合多聽？
商務(wù)英語聽力訓(xùn)練的素材比較少，因此對于一些真題材料的重復(fù)多次使用是有必要的。那么，哪些真題材料是適合重復(fù)使用的呢?小編今天給大家介紹一下。
很多同學(xué)反映，針對BEC聽力的訓(xùn)練素材太少了，無非就是那幾套真題，還有少的可憐的模擬題，做過一遍對完答案后就不知道接下來該干嘛了。其實，按照卷面要求完成答題遠(yuǎn)非聽力訓(xùn)練的終點，而只是剛剛開始。根據(jù)我們在課堂上對于真題的分析，大家不難認(rèn)識到，BEC聽力之所以難，很大程度上因為它語速快而且句子結(jié)構(gòu)、內(nèi)容都很復(fù)雜�；谶@種特點，我們需要在解題完成之后，回過頭去，再次聽錄音材料并仔細(xì)揣摩考點和錯誤原因。這個過程就是所謂的“回聽訓(xùn)練法”。
如何具體操作回聽法?——拒絕“一翻二查三背出”
每次做完聽力題后，先對一下答案，小結(jié)一下自己的做題表現(xiàn)，但此時不要急著看書后面的錄音原文，而是合上書本，在沒有任何可視材料輔助的情況下再聽錄音，此時尤其要注意聽之前做錯的部分，和感覺較難的單詞和表達(dá)，并試著結(jié)合前后語句所形成的語境，猜測大概含義。只有在反復(fù)聽還是無法理解的情況下，再打開書本看文字材料。
有的同學(xué)聽力中一旦聽到難詞，二話不說翻看后面的原文去找出這個難詞，再查文曲星，然后背出來。很多人就是受制于這種“一翻二查三背出”的訓(xùn)練模式，鈍化了邊聽邊主動思考的能力，聽了半天，聽力敏銳度沒有提高。建議大家適當(dāng)給自己施加壓力，在回聽真題時，強(qiáng)迫自己僅通過聽來推斷詞義，也就是“聽力”之外更重“理解”，這樣以后聽到難詞就不怕了。
另外，回聽錄音時，還要多體會語音效果，比如，當(dāng)說話人要引出重點時，往往會在重點句之前稍微停頓一下，以吸引聽者注意，或者在說道關(guān)鍵單詞時加重語氣作為強(qiáng)調(diào)。習(xí)慣了這種語音現(xiàn)象，你的耳朵就會習(xí)慣成自然地捕捉到重點信息的線索。

A Lesson In Stress Management
Demands placed on us at work can often lead to considerable worry and discomfort. There are, however, ways of protecting ourselves from the stress we face at work. We interviewed Jane Collard, a consultant in stress management.
1. In Jane Collard’s opinion, stress is becoming an increasingly common feature of the workplace. Stress is a highly individual reaction, which varies considerably from person to person, and it is difficult for some employees to avoid it. Indeed, stress is regarded by many as part of the organizational culture of our institutions: it comes with the job. Recent figures indicate that time taken off work because of stress has increased by 500 per cent since the 1950s. Undoubtedly, changes in working conditions have led to greater pressure at work at all levels. With reductions in staffing, workloads for individual employees have increased. In addition, many employees are left worrying about the security of their jobs.
2. On the stress management courses that she runs, Jane Collard tries to make the trainees realise that stress in itself is not harmful. Everyone needs a certain level of stress to enable them to feel motivated and to perform effectively. A complete absence of stress can be as damaging as overstress, since it can make people lose interest in their work, and even lead to depression. The difficulties occur when the amount of stress rises above a level which is healthy for a particular individual. If this happens, the effects are very obvious and the trainees are taught to recognize the signs. Stress may be expressed physically, for example through headaches and tiredness, or through emotional problems such as depression. A person suffering from stress may also start to behave differently, and can be difficult to deal with.
3. While it may not always be possible to prevent stress, there are a number of ways in which it can be controlled. The first thing that the trainees learn is how to manage their time effectively. This involves, first of all, setting realistic goals for both the short and long term. Once this framework has been established, tasks are then prioritised on a daily basis. The trainees are also reminded that when they are under pressure the less important items should be left, and they should never hesitate to delegate. Everyone is encouraged to look at ways of reducing ’wasted time ’, for example by grouping similar tasks together or dealing with items immedkiately.
4. Jane feels that one of the most useful features of the course is that it enables trainees to deal with those demands or deadlines that they regard as unreasonable. They are encouraged to avoid being defensive, but at the same time they are advised not to be afraid of saying ’no’. They are asked to give reasons only if necessary. The training helps them to foresee difficult situations or unwanted demands, and they learn how to prepare themselves mentally. Everyone is encouraged not to get stuck in negative thought patterns, where stress can feed a circular sense of helplessness. One solution they discuss is to think of a more encouraging alternative for each negative message. They learn, for example, to remind themselves that nothing terrible happens when a demand is refused or a deadline missed. Life goes on.
