2021年商務(wù)英語(yǔ)上半年的考試已經(jīng)結(jié)束，下半年考試即將舉行，想要報(bào)考的考生們要抓緊時(shí)間學(xué)習(xí)了。為了幫助大家高效備考，今天幫考網(wǎng)就分享一下歷年BEC的真題及解析，一起來(lái)學(xué)習(xí)一下吧。

Lucy Robertson started working at a takeaway food business to supplement her income during her student days at Edinburgh University, Several years later she had bought the business and now, 17 years on, she owns Grapevine Caterers, probably Scotland\\\'s leading independent caterers, with a turnover of almost ￡6m.

She had never planned to own a business, and had certainly never considered a career in catering. (0)... ... . However, her unplanned career began in 1985, when she returned to Edinburgh and discovered that the takeaway she had worked in was up for sale. On impulse, she bought it, but admits that at the time she knew nothing about catering. (8).........It was a difficult time, but essential in terms of gaining the experience she needed. The late 1980s boom was good for business, with large numbers of office workers wanting takeaway food for their lunches. (9)........\\\'At one point there were 26 food outlets within a 5-kilometre radius,\\\' Robertson recalls. As the economy changed and the once packed office blocks started to become vacant, it became clear that Robertson would need to diversify.(10)........It changed the direction of the company for good.

As Robertson began to win catering contracts, she decided that the company would have to move to larger premises. In 1994, the move was made when she bought another catering business that already had a number of profitable contracts for boardroom lunches.

Meanwhile, Robertson\\\'s main competitor, the oldest catering company in Edinburgh, was causing her some anxiety. \\\'Customer loyalty is not to be underestimated,\\\' she warns. But Robertson is not someone who is easily put off.(11)........Partly as a result of this, turnover doubled, and having outgrown another site, Robertson bought a city-centre location for the group\\\'s headquarters.

By now, Grapevine\\\'s main competitor was a new catering company called Towngates. Although Robertson tried to raise enough money to buy Towngates, she did not succeed.Then luck intervened and Towngates went bankrupt. (12)........Many accepted and the company\\\'s turnover went from ￡700,000 to ￡l .5 million almost overnight.

However, the company\\\'s growth was not as smooth as it sounds in retrospect. Robertson admits, \\\'We were close to the edge during the growth period. Like many under-capitalised companies trying to grow, it might easily have collapsed.\\\' But that, she feels, is the challenge of developing your own business.

A But there are plenty of similar contracts to be won in the east of Scotland before Robertson turns her attention elsewhere.

B Her way round this particular problem was to recruit the catering manager of the rival company.

C But this demand was short-lived, and before long, increasing competition made it harder to make a profit.

D \\\'It was a dramatic learning curve and very small amounts of money were earned at first,’says Robertson.

E She decided that the solution, since many companies required working lunches for meetings with clients, was to prepare and deliver meals to business premises.

F On hearing this, Robertson immediately contacted all of their clients and offered the services of Grapevine Caterers.

G Instead, she studied accountancy after leaving university, and a steady if unspectacular professional path seemed set.

第八題，前面說(shuō)一時(shí)沖動(dòng)她買(mǎi)下了這個(gè)外賣(mài)餐館(takeaway)，事實(shí)上那個(gè)時(shí)候她對(duì)餐飲業(yè)一無(wú)所知。空格后面說(shuō)的是這段時(shí)間很困難，但是對(duì)獲得所需要的經(jīng)驗(yàn)卻是很有必要的。所以第八題的空格部分應(yīng)該填入跟學(xué)習(xí)、積累經(jīng)驗(yàn)有關(guān)的內(nèi)容。D選型最吻合。

第九題，空格前面說(shuō)large numbers of office workers wanting takeaway food for their lunches，大量的辦公室員工需要外賣(mài)食品做午飯，空格后面話(huà)鋒一轉(zhuǎn)，說(shuō)曾經(jīng)一度5公里內(nèi)有26家食品商店，但是經(jīng)濟(jì)轉(zhuǎn)變了，一條街都空了。所以答案是C選項(xiàng)。

第十題，上文說(shuō)經(jīng)濟(jì)形勢(shì)轉(zhuǎn)變了，所以Robertson決定從事多樣化的經(jīng)營(yíng)。后面說(shuō)這種做法永遠(yuǎn)的改變了公司的經(jīng)營(yíng)方式。所以第十空應(yīng)該填入相應(yīng)的對(duì)策，怎么樣來(lái)應(yīng)對(duì)經(jīng)濟(jì)形勢(shì)的轉(zhuǎn)變。應(yīng)該選D，為商業(yè)大廈送飯，正好對(duì)應(yīng)下一段所說(shuō)的。

第十一題，前面說(shuō)競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手給自己造成了很大的困擾，但是Robertson卻不是那么容易屈服的人。后面說(shuō)部分原因是這個(gè)，營(yíng)業(yè)額翻倍了。所以中間應(yīng)該也是填入對(duì)策。和競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手有關(guān)的，應(yīng)該選B選項(xiàng)。

第十二題，前面說(shuō)Robertson想收購(gòu)一個(gè)競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手，但是沒(méi)成功，結(jié)果人家公司自己破產(chǎn)倒閉了。后面來(lái)了一個(gè)many accepted，可以看出這中間應(yīng)該填入的是人家公司破產(chǎn)后Robertson的一些舉措。答案是F。

以上就是歷年商務(wù)英語(yǔ)考試真題內(nèi)容分享，希望對(duì)各位考生有所幫助。備考除了學(xué)習(xí)知識(shí)，還要樹(shù)立良好的考試心態(tài)，做到不驕不躁地學(xué)習(xí)，沉著冷靜地考試，相信只要努力付出就一定會(huì)有所回報(bào)。
