面試英語表達語言能力(2)
還有很多其他相關(guān)的單詞和詞組:
Words & Expression:
American: 美國人,美國的
French: 法國人,法語,法國的
German: 德國人,德語,德國的
Japanese: 日本的,日語,日本人
Spanish: 西班牙人,西班牙語,西班牙的
……
目前用人單位普遍對英語水平要求較高,還有一些需要小語種人才,而這個要求更多地是使用語言交流溝通的能力,它當然跟聊天不一樣,如果你能外國朋友很好地聊天,并不代表你能適應(yīng)這份工作,來看一些背景知識:
Background:
口語和聊天相比,有具有以下幾個明顯的特點:一是主題的明確性。面試時的口語有一個明確的中心,應(yīng)試者必須按照招聘單位指定的中心內(nèi)容進行論述的交談。不像日常聊天那樣經(jīng)常轉(zhuǎn)換話題,話題具有不可預測性,如果應(yīng)聘時口語離開中心漫無邊際地亂扯,或者答非所問,即使講的頭頭是道,也只能以失敗而告終。二是表達的邏輯性。日常的聊天往往是句式松懈、重復累贅、條理不清、顛三倒四,而求職面試的口語則必須講究表達的邏輯性,要求概念清晰、語意連貫、層次分明、推理嚴密、言之有據(jù)。三是詞語的文雅性。日常聊天經(jīng)常使用俚語、諺語、歇后語等,具有俚俗性、俏皮性特點。而求職面試時使用的口語必須莊重、文雅、充分體現(xiàn)出求職者高雅的氣質(zhì)和高尚的風貌。四是較強的表演性。日常聊天時的口語對語音、語調(diào)的要求并不高,語言中的弱化、模糊和脫離現(xiàn)象經(jīng)常出現(xiàn)。而求職面試時的口語既要求語言規(guī)范、清晰,又要求其語調(diào)富于變化,也就是說,在口語的表達上要求有較強的表現(xiàn)力,富有表演性。
