Certificate of English Interpretation: Level 4

Now please listen to the instructions about this exam. I’ll give you a brief introduction before each part of the exam begins and leave you enough time to do the interpreting.

This exam is divided into 3 parts. Each part is divided into a number of segments and at the start of each segment you’ll hear this tone [TONE]. At each pause where you are expected to start interpreting, you’ll also hear this tone [TONE]. You’ll hear each segment only once.

Let’s start with Part 1, the dialogue.

Part 2 Consecutive interpretation: English to Chinese

In this part you will hear a presentation delivered in English about climate change and the ways of dealing with the impacts of climate change. Please interpret this presentation into Chinese. Let’s begin.

[TONE]

Distinguished guests, Ladies and Gentlemen:

Climate change is a serious global challenge. Temperature increases are likely to bring widespread changes around the world. [TONE] // [TONE]

Our country is vulnerable to climate change. Between 1970 and 2004, global greenhouse gas emissions increased 70 per cent. [TONE] // [TONE]

There are two key ways of dealing with the impacts of climate change. First is to work to reduce the growth of greenhouse gases, and eventually to stop global emissions. Second is to prepare for and adapt to changes as best we can. [TONE] // [TONE]

But with concerted global action, we could do much to reduce potential threats to human well-being and security. It is a sensible, practical and comprehensive approach to a formidable challenge. [TONE] // [TONE]
