You can sit exams in general English or Business English. Tests are also available for general and business English.These are called IELTS (International English Language Testing System), designed for those intending to live, work or study in an English-speaking country, and BULATS (Business Language Testing Service), a business English test used by many companies and educational institutions. Please refer to the IELTS and BULATS pages for more details. 我应该参加什么考试？ 首先，你需要确定你的语言证书的目的。是在说英语的国家学习吗？是为了得到一份更好的工作吗？还是为了个人利益和自我价值？不管你的理由是什么，我们都有适合你的测试。查看本页上的不同测试，并选择最适合您的测试。要找到最适合您的测试，请您：-咨询您的老师或培训师 -参考本网站上的试题，确定试题的难度 参加一个快速测试，比如牛津大学出版社出版的快速分班测试。 我们不了解你或你的语言水平，所以我们不能确切地建议你最适合参加哪项考试。另外，因为每个候选人都用同样的问题，所以你不必选择问题。测试结果会告诉你你的语言水平。 How do I know which exam to take? You must first decide your aim in getting a language qualification. Is it perhaps to go to university in an English-speaking country? Is it to get a better job? Is it just for your personal interest and satisfaction? Whatever your reason, we have a suitable exam or test for you. Look at the different exams on this website and choose the one that suits you best. To find out which exam would be the most appropriate for your, you should: - ask your teacher or trainer if you have one - look at typical exam questions (available on this site) and see if they are too easy/too difficult/more or less right - do a quick test, such as the Quick Placement Test produced by Oxford University Press We don't know you or your language level and we cannot really advise you which exam is best! With tests, on the other hand, you don't have to choose because every candidate does the same paper. The test tells you what level you are at! 任何人都可以参加考试吗？ 是的，任何人都可以参加考试。我们为小学生、中学生、大学生和员工设计了不同的测试。除剑桥少儿英语考试外，考试没有年龄限制。 你也可以不通过初级考试直接进入高级水平考试。 Can anyone take them? Yes, anyone can take them. We have tests and exams for young children at primary school, for middle-school students, for university students and working people. There is no age limit, upper or lower, except for Young Learners English Tests. You can do an advanced exam withoutshavingstaken an elementary one. 我在哪里参加考试？ 中国有69个考试中心可供考生参加我们的考试。在这里你可以找到有关考试中心的信息。你可以打电话、发传真或写信到考试中心了解更多信息。 一些考试中心为有大量考生的学校或公司举办研讨会。你可以向考试中心咨询。 Where can I take an exam? There are 69 Centres in Chinaswheresyou can take our exams. You can find all the details here.You can phone, fax, send a letter and they will tell you the details. Some centres organise sessions of the exam in schools, universities and companies if there are many candidates. You can ask the centre about this. 我什么时候参加考试？ KET, PET, FCE和YLE每年在中国进行两次测试。 BULATS没有确定的日期。学校和公司可以与考试中心安排合适的日期。 When can I take an exam? Examinations have fixed dates. These are the same the world over. There are six possible dates a year when you can take KET, PET, FCE and BEC, five for FCE and two for CAE and CPE. In China, there are two sessions for BEC, KET, PET, FCE and CAE, and YLE. You can find the exact dates and also the deadline date for enrolling here. BULATS has no fixed dates. Schools or companies arrange a convenient date with the centre. 考试费用是多少？ 每次测试的成本都不一样。具体费用请与就近的考点联系。 目前商务英语考试费用如下： BEC初级：289.4元 BEC中级：372.6元 BEC高级版：488.9元 剑桥英语考试5级 一共224.6元 PET 271.2元 人民币432.4元 剑桥ESOL(英语作为外语)是一个纯粹的教育机构，而不是一个商业机构。所以我们会尽量减少获得证书的费用。但相关的行政费用，特别是口试和其他费用是必不可少的。 How much does it cost? Every exam and test has a different price. So you need to contact the centre nearest you to find out the exact enrolment fee. Currently the prices for BEC series are: BEC Preliminary: 289.4 yuan BEC Vantage: 372.6 yuan BEC Higher: 488.9 yuan Prices for LMS are: KET 224.6 yuan PET 271.2 yuan FCE 432.4 yuan Cambridge ESOL Examinations is not a commercial enterprise, but a purely educational body. We therefore do our best to limit the costs involved in obtaining a certificate. But of course there are costs attached to the administration of the exams, especially the oral tests, and some charges are inevitable. 0 每个考生都会收到一张考试成绩单，上面会告诉你你的成绩以及你是否通过了考试。通过考试的考生将获得证书。 你收到的结果非常详细，并告诉你测试的哪些部分你做得最好，哪些部分你需要努力。例如，测试结果可能会告诉你，你在口语部分做得很好，但在阅读部分表现不佳。 我们的考试与欧洲教学大纲紧密结合。这意味着无论你通过哪一门考试，你都可以评估你的英语水平，从初级到高级。例如，如果你通过了FCE(英语第一证书)，你已经达到了欧盟语言教学大纲的B2级。有关欧共体语言教学大纲的语言水平的详细说明可在本网站查阅。 欧共体语言教学大纲的语言水平现在越来越多地被政府、国家教育系统和公司使用和接受。 What are the results like? Every candidate gets a result slip which gives an exact grade gained and tells you if you have passed or failed. Later, successful candidates receive a fine certificate. Your result will be detailed and you will be able to see which parts of the test you did best and which areas you might need to work on. For example, it might tell you that you have done very well in the oral but were rather weaker on the reading exercises. All our exams give a result which is linked closely to the Common European Framework. This means that whichever exam you pass, you will be able to see which CEF level you have achieved, from A1 to C2. So, for example, if you have passed FCE you know you have reached CEF level B2. Detailed explanations of these CEF levels are available in printed form and on this website. These CEF levels are increasingly used and accepted as the standard by governments, national education systems and companies. 这个考试需要很多准备吗？ 如果你一直在上课，低级别的考试当然不需要太多特别的准备。剑桥少儿英语、入门英语测试(KET)和入门英语测试(PET)等内容密切反映了语言教学环境的现状以及许多已发表的复习材料的内容和风格。 然而，考试水平越高，需要做的准备就越多。即使你的英语很好，在没有任何准备的情况下参加像高级商务英语这样的考试也是轻率的。 你可能不熟悉英语考试的形式，所以即使你参加的是较低水平的考试，最好在考试前做一些测试练习。我们的调查显示，大多数考生在考前都做了一定程度的准备。 我们没有教学大纲，所以你不需要读特定的书。如果它是一个测试而不是一个正式的考试，我们不建议准备。测试的目的是给出你当前水平的一个快照，而不是你的进步。当然，你也可以做一些测试练习来熟悉考试的形式。(实际测试) 考试和练习考试辅助工具(书籍、磁带和cd)在各大书店都可以买到。如果你在当地找不到这些材料，请直接联系当地的出版商(剑桥大学出版社，牛津大学出版社或朗曼出版社)。 教师可以从我们的网站上获得帮助和建议，并下载免费手册，其中包含示例问题和准备帮助。 Does it take a lot of preparation? Certainly the tests and exams at lower levels do not require a lot of special preparation if you follow a course of study. The content of exams like Young Learners English, KET and PET reflects closely what happens in the language teaching environment and the content and style of many published materials. The higher the level, however, the more need there is to do preparation. It would be rash to try an exam like BEC Higher withoutshavingsdone any preparation at all, even if your English is very good. You may not be familiar with the format of a British examination, so it would be wise at the very least to attempt some practice tests before the day of the exam, even for a lower level exam. Our research shows that a high proportion of candidates for our exams have done some kind of course of preparation. There is no specific syllabus, however. You don't have to read any special books, for example. For tests, rather than exams, we do not advise preparation. The idea of a test is to give a snapshot of your current level, not to reflect progress in a course of study. Here again, of course, you can always try some practice tests to familiarise yourself with the format. Practice tests and exam support materials (books, cassettes and CD-ROMs) are available from good specialist bookshops. If you have any difficult in obtaining these from your bookshop, please contact the local publishers directly. 有了这些知识，书就好了，英语就好了
