一、笔 试

1、听力： 听力复习最有效果的方法是听写训练加模拟练习题。所谓听写就是MP3放一句，暂停，写下来再放后一句，如此循环听完一篇文章后，如果自己觉得不怎么样就再来一次，但是次的听写稿要撕掉，拿一张白纸重写，切忌看着次的听写稿作修改补充，那样没用的。写完后和正确对一下，错误的地方再针对地听，看看自己为什么没听出来，是因为连读、失爆，还是别的什么原因，这个搞懂了你就提高了。

2、阅读：中级口译的阅读共6篇文章，400-500词，每篇文章5个问题，要求在30分钟内做完，通常选自《读者文摘》《经济学人》《时代》等杂志。阅读出了一本教材《中级阅读教程》，实际上不太实用。这本书的文章长度及题型均与考试的题目相甚远，所以笔者买一些中级口译的笔试模拟题。在练习的过程中，一定要掐准时间，30分钟内做完6篇，否则考场上时间肯定不够。做阅读时，先看题目，再看文章，能够更有针对性地找出。

3、翻译：翻译部分是重头戏，也是最难抱的，完全是靠硬功夫。如果笔译不好，我建议老老实实翻译《中级翻译教程》上的每一篇文章，因为每年都会有这本教程上的原题出现在试卷上。倘若能在平时练习时注意总结技巧，融入到日常的翻译练习中，坚持这样做进步还是快的。此外，备考翻译也可以网上找一些稿子，是中英文对照的.那种，打印出来仔细揣摩研究它的遣词造句，学习运用到自己的翻译中去。

笔者英语水平零起点或基础薄弱的学习者报一个英语零基础直达中级口译【班】，教材免费赠送，名师全程指导，拿证更有把握。具有一定英语水平的学习者可以考虑英语中级口译长线备考班和英语高级口译长线备考班，教材精讲与真题透析相得益彰，更长的备考周期拿证更有把握。

二、口 试

除非你有不错的英文底子，否则我还是建议报个补习班效率会比较高，因为一般学生应该是没有接触过这种考核方式的，通过辅导班的学习会有直观的了解。相比于自己复习时的无的放矢，辅导班就好比已经为你指明了靶子，轮到自己复习，效果明显优于前者。

在此，笔者沪江网校的英语零基础直达中级口译【班】，英语中级口译长线备考班以及英语高级口译长线备考班，免费赠送教材，精选名师讲解，专设口译笔记法训练课程，练习正确口译记录方法，培养出属于自己的笔记体系，更长备考周期让你考试无忧。

1、口语：从笔者的个人经验来看，从拿到口语题目到考试，给你的时间远远多于5分钟，所以拿到题目没内容说是不可能的。偏题就更不可能，但问题是5~8分钟可以写出很充实的提纲却不可能写正文。也就是说所谓考口语，考的就是如何在脑子里有一句话准备好的情况下考试时当场编几句相关的废话，中间停顿还不能太多，否则直接判为不及格。那么怎么练习就很明朗了，重点要放在流畅不结巴上而不是我到底讲的什么内容。笔者的做法是随便想一道题目，关于学习的、发展的、经济的……随便，在2分钟内把提纲写在纸上，再用1分钟浏览几遍，然后就对着镜子说。刚开始练很痛苦，磕磕绊绊说了两三句就没话了，然后就是一脸的痛苦状，万般纠结。之所以用镜子是为了让你看到自己在考场上可能会出现的表情，学着控制焦 躁 和紧张的表情，因为那会给考官强烈的心理暗示，你这个人不行。在主观性这么强的考试中，教官对你的印象比你自己的实际水平重要得多。每次练习保证说10分钟以上，没有重大停顿，语速开始练习时稍慢，VOA Special那样就可以了。一天练一次就可以了，如果你够毅力坚持说1个月以上，你会发现自己的陈述内容很浅，废话连篇，但是语言较连贯，语速也足够快，这不是好的presentation，但应付考试足够了。

2、口译： 口译考4段，16句，8句中翻英，8句英翻中，20秒内翻译出来2/3的内容就算正确，但是主语、宾语和情感色彩如果错误就判定为错误，11句或以上正确就通过。由此可见口译时还是把握句子内的名词最重要。平时可以用音频自己模拟训练，放一段，同时速记，MP3的声音一停就马上开口翻译，“马上开口”是模拟训练的精髓，练的就是这种能力，看你怎么样在有的内容已经想好怎么翻，有的却还在纠结，没时间多想就要开口，边说前半句的翻译，一边大脑又在摸索后面怎么翻，要练这种一心两用的本事。模拟练习次数多了自然就有感觉。要提醒一点，口译教程16套题目一定要好好做，像考试那样的做，尤其是4套新加的，句子长、时间少，有的还有文言文色彩，更要做不止一遍，而且必须像考试那样的听译，不能视译，否则是浪费时间。从笔者的体会来看，实际考试难度就和4套不多，答题时间感觉更短。 ;

---------------------------------------------------

1．口译考试口试流程

中级口译口试：

部分 3-minute talk

这部分要求大家在规定的三分钟内就所给的一个英文题目进行口语表达。要求做到无重大语法错误，表达流畅，能围绕题目进行论点阐述，论证，无偏题，跑题问题。

第二部分 4 passages of interpretation

这部分共有四段口译，两段英翻中，两段中翻英。每一段分四小段翻完，即共有十六小段。每小段通常在两到三小句，其中至少应有一句长难复杂句。每小段结束后磁带中发出“嘟”的声音，考生必须在第二声“嘟”之前把听到的段落翻译出来。每小段间隔时间约为22到25秒钟。每小段字数大约为60-80字。

---

2．口试评分标准及通过率

口试与笔试的区别在于没有具体的分数，而只有及格与不及格之分。中级口译共十六小段，必须要确保翻对其中的十一小段。即最多只能错五小段。如只翻对十小段，错六小段，虽然只一小段，但结果仍然是不过。所以口试是相对来说比较残酷的。这也是口试通过率特别低的主要原因，中口一般为不超过30%，高口一般不超过20%。如一个考场一天有二十名考生，中口最多过六到七人，高口最多过三到四人。

具体到每小段的时候，考官会遵循三分之二正确率的原则。即如一小段中有六个关键信息，考生必须正确翻出至少三分之二的内容才算这小段通过，如翻对二分之一，则算不及格。

四、中级口译报名时间

上海中级口译考试，过来人给我一点经验、建议吧

中级口译不是特别的难 每年可以考两次

笔试来说 主要是看你的英语水平和积累 一般现在外面的培训都会告诉你该怎么办

至于口试 因为有题库的 所以有运气的成分在里面 一部分题目和书本上的很相近 我觉得看外面培训的水平也主要在口语这一块

笔试不算很难，难度比六级稍难点，主要是题型比较不一样，建议考前做点真题感觉一下，口试比较难，考前一定要花很多时间多听多说，尤其是教材要熟透，会出上面的内容的，加油：）

上海中级口译书籍选择，请有经验者指导

小弟我是过了中口口试。中口笔试比六级是要难一点的，侧重点不一样。特别是后面的中英文翻译占比重是很大的，也是得分的重点。

口试和六级没有可比性，考的是你的英文速记能力，速记笔记的能力，听力能力，随机应变能力……综合性很强。但是在长江三角洲地区认可度是很高的。楼主要想顺利通过中口，一是要平时注意积累。中口所涉及的方面很多，经济，旅游文化，科技等等都有。很多是你不接触很少会用到的。

教材方面你买一套教程，再加新东方的备考精要，历年的真题可以网上下载。把这些教材吃透了完全足够了。特别是中级口译教程【第三版】，堪称过中口的神器。很多题目会从里面抽取片段。这也是你打基础的。

平时可以多看美剧，看英文电影，听英文歌曲，读英文报纸，拓展自己的英文知识面。

祝楼主顺利通过啊~~

以上纯手打，求采纳！！

上海地位不断攀升，口译人才紧缺。1995年上海市外语口译考试办公室组织开发中高级口译岗位资格证书。实践性极强，注重能力培养，已成 为评断个人外语水平的重要参考标准，被喻为“外企求职的白金证书”。获得沪上众多外资企业的认可。

我四级五百六十几分，中口就比六级稍微难一点。主要买听力和口语教程吧，往年真题一定要看！我考前一周做了往年的真题！笔试过了！口语就比较难，我没去考，我 同学考了两次都没过！

买本真题做做 多做听力翻译 上海中口两道英翻中 中翻英 占了100分 很重要 前面的听力翻译也是比重挺大的 笔试多练练 会过 答题 要快 口语比较难 我准备考试的时候只是做了本真题 其他教程没怎么看 重点是认真做真题吧 考口语的时候 再专项练习口语吧

我2012秋季 笔试考过了 2013春去考口语 都加油吧

上外的那一套书~

笔试相对简单~

口译部分背下来，基本没什么问题~

你就看综合教程就行了，加上一本真题，一共两本就足够了

中级口译考题的总分多少？各部分具体的占分分别是多少？

口译

中级口译笔试共分四部分：1.听力40分钟/90分; 2.阅读50分钟/60分; 3.英译汉30分钟/50分; 4.汉译英30分钟/50分。 总考试时间为150分钟，满分为分。凡阶段合格的考生（及格分150分）方可参加第二阶段口试。如果听力能拿60分，则在余下的阅读部分只要取得40分，总分值100的翻译加起来拿50分，就能轻松达到150分的及格分。听力在夺取这150分中，处于抢分的关键地位，所以希望引起同学的重视，制定好整体考试通过策略，针对中口听力题型进行针对性训练，将达到事半功倍效果）以下，对听力部分各个分项命题特点以及难点进行分项分析。

口译题型趋势分析

1. Spot dictation

题型：

一篇文章挖掉20个空格，一边听录音一边把空格里的单词填满，听力只放一遍，每个空格至少填1个单词，最多填4个单词（高级口译最多填6个单词）。

趋势：

词组和长单词出现的频率增加了。诸如environmental protection, scio-linguistics, diversification。所以，不要“奢望”能够在听写的时候把每个单词都拼写完整，应该用一些缩写，事后补全，如as follows=af ; aertisement=ad ; business=biz ; automobile=auto ; university=uni ; professor=prof, Asian Pacific=AP。

每年考试都会出一两个冷僻单词，如prioritization, air turbulence, deliberate signal. 遇到这种情况，不要紧张，因为你觉得“冷僻”，对其他人而言也是冷僻的，要失分大家一起失分。口译笔试只要过了及格线就好了，所以不要为了这1分影响后面发挥。

2. Statements

题型：

这个部分一共十句话，满分十分，听到一句话，能够迅速在四个选项中找到意思相近的句子，考点就是“同义替换”，比如turn down对应reject, in vain对应fail。

趋势：

会出现“一词多义”，考的是一个单词的多种意思。比如，在听力考试中不会是“纸”的意思，而是报纸或者论文。但是里面肯定会有stationery（文具）作为干扰项。又比如pick up除了“拿，捡”，还有“学习”、“购买”“加强”等意思，所以需要学生掌握一个单词的多种意思。

句子越来越长。04年9月的听力考试，statement的句子通常有两到三个分句，考察的还是学生对词组的掌握，但是无关的干扰信息多了。只要能掌握教材里出现的每一句statement, 对自己不熟悉的句型和词组加以掌握，顺利拿分还是可以的。

3. Talks and Conversation

题型：

和CET一样的听力理解题，五篇文章，每篇文章四个问题，每个问题对应四个，选择其中的正确即可，满分20分。

趋势：

00年以前是四篇文章，每篇文章有五道个问题，现在是五篇文章，每篇有四道问题，文章的无关信息多了。学生需要在很长的一段文章里抓出四个重点。而听力进行到这一部分，多数学生已经开始疲倦，会出现走神的情况，尤其是到两篇文章，这就增加了失分。在做题的时候牢记“顺序原则”，题目都是按文章顺序出的。听的时候看选项，预测问题，做好笔记。如果等到一篇文章听完才开始做题，很多细节都忘记了，失分就很厉害。

题一直是高级口译的必考题目，中级口译的题一直都是出在statement和句子翻译部分。但是近年来中级口译有采用高级口译听力题型的趋势，所以不排除会把题出在听力理解部分。记住no news is good news, 只考“灾难性”，所以平时注意积累车祸、和方面的词汇。并且牢记的开头句话是考察重点。

4. Translation

题型：

五句句子翻译，三分一句；两个段落翻译，满分15分。

趋势：

翻译部分的长句越来越多，但是长句并不等同于“难句”。听译的句子主要考察的是听力理解和记笔记的能力，不会涉及翻译技巧。

灾难和突发（、、伤亡等）一直是考试热点，所以学生要掌握这方面的词汇。此外，经济动向和统计数据也是一个考点，对inflation rate, interest rate, unemployment rate这类词汇要迅速反应。

翻译的评分标准是“内容基本正确，表达通顺，给3分”，也就是满分。所以，只要能翻出文章的大意，而不是字字，面面俱到。很多学生在记笔记的时候希望能记下每一个单词，这个是不可能，也是很的。在考试的时候，要放松心情，笔试只要“及格”就够了，所以允许自己句子有一句完全没听懂。

要想攻克这一部分，一定要做“听写”练习，找一篇长度在三分钟到五分钟的文章，听一句写一句。在练习中熟悉自己记笔记的套路和抓关键字的能力。熟练掌握是以大量的练习为基础的，踏踏实实的做听写练习，可以为后面的口译考试打好基础，也是一个练习听力的方法。

口译备考练习

中级口译考试从97年开始到现在，可以分为两个阶段，97年到99年是一个阶段，考题相对来说是比较简单的。2000年以后，考题的难度明显加大，语速也变快了。所以建议各位考生在有限的时间里，重点研究2000年以后的真题，如果时间有余，不妨做2000年之前的真题作为一种热身。

spot-dictation全文：

Spot Dictation

For centuries, people he been fighting over wher governments should allow trade between countries. There he been, and probably always will be two sides to the argument.

Some people argue that just letting rybody trade freely is best for both the country and the world. Others argue, that trade with other countries makes it harder for some people to make a good living.

Both sides are at least partly right. International trade matters a lot. It's a fact on the life of people are enormous. Imagine a world in which your country did not trade at all with other countries. Imagine what kind of job you would be likely to get. And what goods you could buy or not buy in such a world.

For the United States for example, start by imagining that it lived without its 70 billion dollars a year in imported oil, and cut back on its energy use because the remaining domestic oil and other energy sources were more expensive. Producers and consumers in other parts of the economy would feel the same if they were suddenly stripped a foreign-made goods like CD players and clothing.

On the export side, supe that Boeing could sell airplanes, and farmers could sell their corps only within the United States, and that US universities could admit only domestic students. In each case, there are people who gain, and people who lose from cutting off international trade.

In any case, less or more international trade will he strong effects on your career, as well as your life. For years, American companies are often faced with the cho of buying American-made goods which are expensive, and foreign made goods which are cheap. If the company buys America goods, it may anger tax payers by feeling to keep prs low. But if they buy us foreign goods, it may ener the jobs of American workers.

Recently, congress has passed a law compiling American companies with government contracts to give preference to domestic goods and servs.

Q15-18

Ladies and Gentlemen, we all know that n with the aances of science and technology in our modern society, it is very difficult for us to predict an earthquake, let alone, prnted. But people had long ago tried ry sible means to record and in some way predict the occurrence of an earthquake.

The world's first instrument for recording earth quakes was invented in China in the second century AD. The instrument, today we would call it a seioscope was designed by a Chinese astronomer, and geographer named Zhangheng. It was a vessel like dev made of bronze and measured in 6 feet in diameter.

Inside the instrument, there was a pendulum that was swing from the movement of a trimmer that is too weak to be felt by a human being. When the pendulum swung, it will pull one of the attached bars. The bar will open the mouth of the dragon sculpture on the outside of the vessel. And a bronze ball will drop, and fall with a clang into the open mouth of a frog sculpture below. This seioscope could not only record the movement of an earthquake, but also show from which direction of the earthquake came.

In AD 138, Zhangheng used his invention to announce that a major earthquake has struck 400 miles northwest of Luoyang, the Chinese capital. His report came long before massagers on horse back brought news of the earthquake to the capital city.

15. For what pure was the vessel like seioscope invented?

16. What is the function of the pendulum inside the instrument?

17. According to the talk, what happened in the year AD 138?

18. How was the news of earthquake brought to the capital city before the invention of such an instrument?

Q19-22

B: Hi Betty, n to see you again! How long ago did we two meet in the student centre? I'm glad the final examinations are over, and we don't he to stay up all night to cram all the academic stuff into our minds.

G: Yes. I’m glad we can be here again to relax, and he fun with other fellow students. And now we can look forward to our summer holiday. I've been thinking of going to the States for some time.

B: I think it would be much better for you to go on holiday here in England than to the United States. To start with, it's a lot nearer, and so it would be much cheaper to get around. That means you will he far more money to spend.

G: That may be true. But thinking about when you get there. There are much more to do in the United States. There are so many different things to see, and places to go. Imagine you could go to New York, San Francisco, the Grand Canyon, and Disney World!

B: Exactly! Disney World! I he been dreaming of going there r since my childhood.

G: So, you are changing your mind, aren't you?

B: I'm still worrying about the cost of taking a trip to the States. Meanwhile, if you stay here in England, you can probably take up some part-time jobs. That way, you can earn extra money to support your study next semester.

G: Maybe you are right. I’ll think it over, and talk about it with my parents while I'm home. Anyway, it is they who pay for my study here in the university.

19. What has the man been doing recently?

20. Why does the man wants to spend his holiday in England?

21. Where is this conversation taking place?

22. At the end of the conversation, what does the woman decide to do?

Q23-26

All humans experience stress. It is a necessary part of life. Generally speaking, a person's ability to deal with stress is affected by his or her feelings, attitude and outlook on life. To start with, my topic for this week's lecture is age stress.

Parents tend to think that their children's adolescence is a carefree period of life. Howr, study show that agers can experience the most stress of all people. They can experience stress related to money, family problems, self-esteem, acceptance by their peers, getting accepted into college, choosing a career, and pressure to do well in school, sports or clubs. One reason for such stress is that childhood has gotten shorter, and the perception of children has changed. With the rapid aance of rmation technology, children can get messages that in the past, were probably meant only for s. And the dividing line between childhood and hood ceases to exist. Children do not play as many as their s as we used to. And most of their s and sports nowadays are those usually performed by s. Youngsters are encouraged to use language that was once nr to be heard around a child.

Today, our people are under tremendous pressure to achi and succeed. It seems to me that the higher our living standard is, the more stress our children experience. In any case, the way by which we live today definiy has soming to do with the increase of the ll of stress.

23. According to the talk, how would parents view their children's adolescence?

24. Which of the following is not a stress-related phenomenon for agers?

25. According to the speaker, what kind of messages can children get today?

26. What has contributed to the increase of the ll of stress?

Passage Translation

1. I think examinations are much better than homework. I prefer hing exams at the end of a school year to doing homework ry week. For me, the problem with homework is that the pressure is on you all the time, and rything you do counts towards your final result. With examinations you can work really hard only in the final stages. I also like to get up early and go through my notes on the day of the exam. That way, rything is fresh in my mind.

2. Listening is one of the things we do most. Yet listening isn't easy. First we are surrounded by noise. People talking or shouting, the sound of traffic, or the roar of airplanes overhead, which makes any listening job a challenge. Second, we often don't seem to remember n when we do listen.

英译汉

What is a novel? I say: an invented story. At the same time a story which, though invented, has the power to ring true. True to what? True to life as the reader knows life to be or, it may be, feels life to be. And I mean the , the grown-up reader. Such a reader has outgrown fairy tales, and we do not want the fantastic and the imsible. So I say to you that a novel must stand up to the tests of reality.

You may say:”If one wants truth, why not go to the literally true book? Biography or documentary, these amazing accounts of amazing experiences which people he.” Yes, but I am suggesting to you that there is a distinction between truth and so-called reality. The novel does not simply recount experience. And here comes in what is the actual livening spark of the novel: the novelist’s imagination has a power of its own. It does not merely invent, it perceives. It intensifies, therefore it gives power, extra importance, and greater truth to what may well be ordinary and ryday things.

是什么？我认为是人们创造出来的故事。同时尽管是创造出来的故事，但是仍然有一种力量能够让人听上去感觉像真的一样。真的像什么呢？就像读者所知道的那种生活或者可能的生活样子，像他们所感觉的那种生活。当然我指的是对于成熟的成年读者而言。像我们这样的成年读者已经足够长大，不再相信童话故事，不再需要奇异幻想和那些不可能发生的事情。所以我对你说，必须要成熟起来，能够让成年人将之放在生活中试验。

你或许会说：“如果一个人需要事实，他为什么不去看完完全全真实的书呢？自传或者纪录片里都是些令人惊异的真人真事的描述。这当然正确，但是我对你的建议是事实和所谓的现实之间有着本质的区别。并不仅仅只是叙述人们的经历，会添加人们的经历。而这一点正是所具有的活力火花：家的想象力有其自己强大的力量。借助这种想象力家并不仅仅创造，他们去感知。这种想象力不断增强，给原本普普通通的日常生活注入一股力量，使它们变得额外地重要，变得更加地真实。
