前言

邱政政寄语:If the boat of your dream doesn't come to you, swim to it.

近年,随着就业形势的日益严峻,英语口译岗位资格证书考试已经在全国的中学、大学校园和白领职场形成“燎原之势”。口译证书为何如此受宠?上海市外语口译岗位资格证书考试办公室的专家们一语道破:口译证书的高含金量和低通过率是其成为学生和职场人士首选的重要原因,而我在九年前开设口译项目之时所提出的“一纸证书 + 真才实学”的教学宗旨,也恰恰体现了口译考试的这一本质。

秉承“口译成就梦想”的教学理念,口译项目已经成为上海新东方学校最具活力和人气的培训项目,其招生人数连续九年在申城乃至全国位居第一,考试通过率也连续15次在全国遥遥领先。令人骄傲的是,上海新东方已经成为华东乃至全国最大的口译培训基地,尤其是少年口译系列课程,已成为广大优秀中、小学生提升综合英语实力的首选。

从2003年项目启动至今的九年间,上海新东方培养出15名高级口译最高分得主,20名中级口译最高分得主和20名基础口译最高分得主,年纪最小的基础口译证书获得者8岁的李翊雷、年纪最小的中级口译证书获得者9岁的朱哲敏、年纪最小的高级口译证书获得者12岁的骆静怡、金琪,以及全国高级口译最高分得主傅蓉(257.5分)均接受过新东方的口译培训。同时,令人欣喜的是:2005至2011年的8位上海市高考文、理科状元也都不约而同地来到上海新东方接受口译培训。上海新东方的口译项目更是独家荣获了上海市教育博览会“口译金牌项目”的称号,这充分标志着口译进入了新东方时代!

从2008年开始,上海新东方基础口译教研组就致力于基础口译教材、教辅和资料的编写工作。由于此类图书在市场上极为紧缺,内容上又非常讲究实用性和针对性,因此专家组集中各类资源进行资料筛选、题型细分、考试趋势分析、难度评估等工作,同时结合来自一线的教学实践,开始编写图书。在编写的过程中,专家组反复对书的内容进行优化和调整,以便最大限度地贴近基础口译的考试要求,帮助广大考生切实提高英语水平。2009年,凭借雄厚的教学和教研实力,新东方口译研究中心的口译专家们联合打造的《基础口译考试备考精要》跟广大考生和青少年口译爱好者见面,并受到广泛好评。2011年,在精心筛选、整理、汇编之后,基础口译教研专家团队为考生献上《基础口译全真模拟试题》,力求让考生在全真环境中练习备考,以顺利通过基础口译考试。2012年伊始,基础口译专家团队又推出了《基础口译阅读与翻译教程》。而现在大家看到的这本《基础口译词汇必备》,则包含了基础口译教研组在细致研读实考真题后,为基口考生精心筛选出来的必备词汇。

本书为考生整理了基础口译常考词汇、高频词组及高频句型,词汇讲解部分包括词性及词义、同义词、常用搭配、口译考点和实考真题例句五大模块,科学的编排有助于考生快速掌握基口词汇,为提高基口考试成绩奠定基础。同时,广大口译爱好者也可以使用本书提升自己的英语实力。我衷心希望这本书能够为热爱口译的你铺就成功之路。

考生们如果有任何关于口译备考方面的问题,可以登录我的微博:weibo.com/qiuzhengzheng、人人网公共主页:http://page.renren.com/600007967,或开心网公共主页:kaixin001.com/qiuzhengzheng 进行留言,我会尽己所能帮助大家。我相信,从你拿到这本书并开始静下心来学习的那一刻,你便开始悄然接近你的口译梦想了。
