BEC中级阅读
第一课时
开场白
评分标准：
A、B、C考试通过（PassingGrade）D、E考试不及格（FailingGrade）
BEC阅读
考试时间：
1小时题目数：
45道题
题型：
1、Matching（搭配题或匹配题）第一部分共7道题，文章250－350字，是商业环境中的文章（产品广告，招聘广告）。
要么是一篇较长文章中选出4个相关段落，或者是相关主题的4篇短文章题目难度中等侧重于辨认具体的信息或具体的细节，极少考主旨
2、Matching（搭配题或匹配题）考察把握文章结构和段落大意的能力给出1篇正文（商业类报刊文章或报告中选出并稍加改写），留有可填写1句话的一些空格。
加上7个选项，第二部分字数为450－580。
考官共留出6个空格，实际上考生只需填写5个空格，因为第一个空格都是作为example给出的，其答案为G。
故只需6选5难度较大
3、MultipleChoice（单项选择题）4选1的单项选择题6个题目文章是一篇450－550字的正文（一般的或商务的出版物、公司文献或管理方面的书籍。
正文可能经过编辑，但来源是真实的）正确答案不会是简单的词汇搭配，而是对文章中句子的意译或解释题目难度较大
4、选择题形式的完成句子题15个题目200－300字的一篇正文，有15个空格，每道题都有4个选项，从中选择1个意义最合适的文章不是特别难，考查考生词汇能力
5、Correction（改错题）考12个题目，全部是找出额外的和不必要的单词考查语法知识
命题题材：
1、商业信函（BusinessLetter）常出现在第四、五部分2、广告（Advertisement）第一部分常考3、关于经济或者商业的一些消息或者公告（PublicInformation）4、产品介绍（ProductDescription）5、商务活动方面的计划、安排、决定或建议（BusinessPlan/Proposals/Recommendations）6、会议记录（RecordofMeeting）7、非正式信息（InformalMessages）

浏览过程中如果发现答题的具体信息，可在具体信息下面划线并标上题号以备最后检查
