高级口译分为两个部分——笔试和口试,且笔试通过才能参加口试。下面小编就和大家分享高级口译攻略,希望能够帮助到大家,来欣赏一下吧。
高级口译攻略
听力Listening
听力(一):Spot Dictation和Note-taking and Gap filling
这两个大题都是考察速记能力的。要求填空的内容都是听力文稿中的原话,但难点在于朗读者语速较快。提高得分率最好的办法就是多听真题和模拟题。一遍过后若没有都能听出,则再次播放直到能完全填出所有内容。训练10篇以后,则只听一遍,模拟考试状态。
听力(二):Listening Comprehension
1. 高级口译的听力短文多数考察细节题,所以在听的过程中一定要记笔记。
2. 由于听力的题目并未在卷子上呈现,所以我们可以从选项出发对问题有一个预判。
听力(三):Passage Translation and SentenceTranslation
1. 边听文章边把握文章大意与主旨
2. 速记:记录数字,日期等,还有尽可能多的细节。最后争取把记下来的点统统用上,串联成一篇文章。
3. 笔记:一定要整洁、有序、条理分明。否则文章内容的先后次序会受到很大的影响。
4. 用词要简单直白
阅读 Reading
阅读(一)选择
1. 高口的文章相对较长,所以推荐的做题方法是先看题后去文章找相关句子。
2. 针对不同题型的不同解法,这里就不赘述了。(具体要结合题目,可以参考《高级口译笔试备考精要》)
3. 高口的词汇远超六级。应试者最好能背完专四。若能背完专八,则更为稳妥。
阅读(二)问答题
1. 圈画。问答题的题目较为直白,但是需要回答的内容非常非常多,而且常常涉及好几段的内容,所以一定要在文章中划出重点。
2.概括与总结。抄原句费时费力,而且会使答案缺少层次与逻辑。所以一定要对原文进行概括与整合。
翻译 Translation
1. 熟练掌握《中高级口译口试词汇必备》上的内容
2. 在英译中的过程中若遇难词,先考虑通过上下文推测语境义,不行则跳过。
3. 在英译中的过程中需要调整语序。不要盲目求快,要通篇阅读,确定每句话的主语再进行翻译。
4. 在中译英的过程中,首先要确定每一句话的句型,由分句到主句。
5. 在中译英的过程中,求准确是最为重要的。若译者英语水平有限,可采取逐字翻译的策略。若有能力的同学,则可以根据每句话的主语,适当变动句型,运用从句、非谓语等复杂语法。
6. 翻译完毕之后,要检查语法以及拼写。

高级口译口试部分准备
考试内容:
口试部分共分为两个部分:口语和口译。
候场时间的利用:
由于口译考试的入场顺序是随机的,所以有些人会在候考教室等1~2个小时。在等待的时间里,有些人会选择复习。但我不建议在临考前再进行大量的复习,因为很容易导致紧张。
口语部分的流程:
在叫到号之后,会有老师带着我这一批的同学进入备考教室。进入备考教室后,会拿到口试的题目,有5分钟的时间准备。考生可以将思路和框架写在草稿纸上。5分钟过后,上交试题。随后我们去对应的考场门前等候。在等候的时间里还可以看草稿纸上的思路。等到进入考场之后,就必须上交草稿纸。(考官有两个人)理论上要求讲3-5分钟,其实也就只讲了一分钟老师就让我停下了,进入口译部分。
口语考试的Tips:
1. 尽可能快速地写完框架和重要的点,把尽可能多的时间花在操练上。(千万不要把时间浪费在一字一句写你的演讲稿)
2. 主要的演讲架构应该是:(简短交代背景——分条回答所给问题——总结)
3. 虽然考官通常在你作答第一道题之后就打断你,但是给出的三个问题一定都要好好准备。
口译部分的流程:
考官会下发一张草稿纸,随即开始播放口译试题。考生需对4篇(英译中、中译英各两篇)共8段文章进行翻译,每段分别评分。每段75-85个字,听完一段后有40~50秒的时间翻译。每次考英译中都有一篇文章是官方教程上的原题。(这次成功压中)4篇文章中至少有1篇是关于时事新闻/政府公文。
口译考试的Tips:
1.心情一定要镇定、冷静。高口口译部分广泛流传的过线标准是8段过6段,还是有一定的容错率。所以就算有一段翻译出现重大失误也要告诉自己要坚持下去。
2. 因为高级口译文章较短,大致内容靠脑记就能把握住。具体的数字和日期用笔记就可以。
3. 提高自己的语速。因为高级口译的回答时间较短,如果语速慢或者是有较长停顿则很难把所有内容翻译完毕。
4. 政治、金融、外交、社会热点的名词翻译非常重要。务必要将《中高级口译口试词汇必备》中Chapter1、2、3、9、10、16和附录的内容都背熟。
高级口译听力真题
Listening Comprehension 1
W:We heard up there that if you are turned down the first time, you try and persevere, but I can’t imagine going back to a boss after you have been turned down.
M:Don’t give up. It’s so important not to give up. The first thing that you wanna do is try to understand what the situation is, engage in some candid conversation. I understand that you weren’t happy with my proposal or you are not able to approve it at this time. Tell me what some of your concerns are, because asking for a change in schedule is often about negotiation. So, maybe we can come up with some type of alternative or middle ground, and if that’s not possible right now, let’s set a timetable for when we can revisit it, because what’s not possible today, could be plausible in 3 or 6 months from now, because circumstances and attitudes change. So don’t give up.
W:Right! You don’t have to be a pest.
M:That’s right.
W:But just don’t give up quietly. OK. We hear bosses saying,” I can’t have people just wake up one day and say, ‘I need more time off’”, what are they really saying?
M: That’s right. You can’t walk in and just make those demands. The bottom line is bosses really do want us to be happy, but not at the expense of productivity. And any type of a change in schedule, any type of flexibility, really, is an accommodation, not an entitlement, and so it doesn’t matter why I am asking, whether it’s “I am a mom, and I need more time with my kids.” or “I am a dad who wants to coach a soccer team.” It doesn’t matter what my reasons are for asking. I have to be able to convince the boss that I’m gonna produce results.
W: That’s one of these reasons you should say over and over again. Don’t go in with the pressing problem. Go in with the pressing solution.
M: Solutions really are your way to victory, not always. But you are definitely not gonna succeed, if you go in with a laundry list of problems. If I come and I say: “I’m so sick of my commute. I really have to work from home one day a week.”
W: But maybe the most skepticism raised by bosses is about the fact that you’re really gonna do as much or even more work. How do you convince your boss that you mean it that more work will be done. How do you convince and then show them.
M: Offer benchmarks. It’s the best solution that you can provide. Because you are gonna say here is the proposal that I have. And here is how we’re gonna measure the results. Because I know results are important to you, and are important to me, too. So maybe we’re gonna have a conversation for 50 minutes every two weeks. So that we understand how the flow of communication is working. And if you are not happy, or I’m not happy, we have the ability to make changes along the way.
W: Right.
M: Flexibility is the key. In terms of getting these special accommodations, because I might say I want to work from home every Friday. But you know what? If there is a pressing business need, I will swap days. I will be here on that Friday,and so being flexible with this arrangement, with this propose change of schedule. Hopes you get control of your life, and keep the boss happy.
Q1 What are the two people talking about?
Q2 What is the bottom line for the bosses on the matter according to the man?
Q3 What is the best solution to the issue being discussed in the conversation?
Q4 Which of the following statements is true according to the conversation?
Q5 What is the relationship between the two speakers most probably?
Listening Comprehension 2
Huston USA: Federal authorities have shut down dozens of web domains as part of a crackdown on trafficking in counterfeit goods or copyrighted works. Internet users attempting to access the websites now are greeted by a notice that the sites have been seized by the Department of Homeland Security’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
‘The coordinated federal law enforcement operation targeted online retailers of a diverse array of counterfeit goods, including sports equipment, shoes, handbags and sun-glasses as well as illegal copies of copyrighted DVD boxed sets, music and software,’ the Justice Department said the crackdown involved the seizure of 82 sites. Twelve of the cases were investigated by Houston-based agents with Homeland Security Investigations, but most of the sites are based overseas, particularly in east Asia, according to the Houston office of Homeland Security Investigations.
Canberra, Austria: South Africa and Australia have said the next managing director of the International Monetary Fund should be appointed on merit and not nationality. The pair say the current appointment system undermines the IMF’s legitimacy. The body has always been headed by a European, and UK chancellor George Osborne has backed Christine Lagarde, French economy minister, for the post.
The position is vacant after Dominique Strauss-Kahn resigned last week so he could fight sexual assault charges.
For too long, the IMF’s legitimacy has been undermined by a convention to appoint its senior management on the basis of their nationality," Australian Treasurer Wayne Swan and South African Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan said in a joint statement.
In order to maintain trust, credibility and legitimacy in the eyes of its stakeholders, there must be an open and transparent selection process which results in the most competent person being appointed as managing director, regardless of their nationality.
Kabul Afghanistan
Suicide bombers wielding machine guns have stormed a government building in eastern Afghanistan, officials say.
Initial reports say at least three gunmen wearing suicide vests shot their way into the traffic police headquarters in Khost city.
Security forces have surrounded the compound and a gun battle is taking place, police say. At least one person is reported to have been killed. The attack comes a day after a suicide bombing in Kabul killed at least six.
In the latest attack, a guard was killed in the initial assault which happened at about 5 o’clock on Sunday, said the army commander for Khost province.
The provincial police chief told the local news agency that there were three other police officers who had been wounded. The Taliban said it carried out the attack.
London, UK:
The first service that allows users to pay for purchases via their mobile phone has been launched in the UK.
Users wishing to use the system - dubbed Quick Tap - will need Orange and Barclaycard accounts as well as a handset set up for contactless payments.
The idea of the mobile wallet is gaining popularity around Europe.
“Having a wallet on my phone has made it much more convenient to make purchases on the move and I like that it allows me to keep track of what I’m spending as I go," said David Chan, chief executive of Barclaycard Consumer.
Later this summer, users will also be able to use the service to pay the toll on the M6 motorway.
Richyvic Iceland:
The Icelandic authorities have imposed a local flight ban after the country’s most active volcano, Grimsvotn, began erupting. A plume of smoke has risen 12 miles into the sky from
the volcano. But Iceland’s Meteorological Office says the eruption should not cause widespread disruption to air traffic. Last year, ash clouds from another Icelandic volcano, led to the closure of a large section of European airspace.
