　　怎样进行民航英语面试?

　　1. 什么是ICAO

　　根据国际民航组织(ICAO)关于飞行人员英语语言能力的要求，飞标司组织开发了民航飞行人员英语等级考试系统，并组织民航英语方面的专家，对考试系统题库进行了专业审定。目前，系统测试已完成，第一个考点设在中国民航飞行学院考试中心，该考点于2008年4月1日正式启用。 该系统作为中国民航推进ICAO关于飞行员英语水平的重要工程，于2007年7月份开始立项，筹备以来，国内多家航空院校和国际知名语言培训机构参与到该系统的建设。为确保考试的科学性、公正性，民航西南地区管理局负责飞行学院考试点的考试工作进行管理和监督。飞行学院负责具体考务工作。

　　2. ICAO考试内容

　　如图所示分为四个板块：

　　第一部分：听力理解

　　你会听到若干组长达10秒或20秒的对话或陈述，在每组对话或陈述后，会相应地提出一个问题。对话与问题都仅说一次。在问题之后会有一个停顿(17秒左右)，你必须阅读ABCD四个选项并点击选出最为正确的'一个。

　　应试技巧：这部分题很类似日常英语考试听力单选题，不同之处在于每一题都与民航专业知识紧密相连，范围从从机长的职责到特情处置都有。难点在于，每一题是由不同人士录音而成，并且可能会有杂音干扰。建议大学在准备第一部分时，多多阅读《民航英语阅读教程》，熟悉一些key words，for example, depressurization(释压) fire engine(救火车), emergency assistance(紧急救援)。如果这些词在辨认、发音上还存在问题，那么要在短时间类听懂并做出正确判断的可能性就微乎其微了。

　　第二部分 短文答问

　　这部分你会听到一段长达120秒的陆空通话。在通话最后，你会被冲问到3个问题。每个问题提出后，你会听到”beep”声，之后你必须通过麦克风进行口头答问。你的声音会被录制下来。对话听两遍，问题仅听一遍。

　　应试技巧：我认为这部分对大多数同学来说会是个难点，因为在中式传统教学中，这样的考试形式是很陌生的。要在2分钟之内，既听懂发生了什么事，也得记下一些要点，比如：事故发生的情况，此时所在的高度等相关信息。这就要求，陆空通话的理解能力与运用能力，同时还有你自己的英语语言组织能力。我建议这部分有困难的同学，1.找到正确的应试方法。建议第一遍时听懂发生了什么事，第二遍记下细节。不可在慌乱之中出现“盲听”现象，总之，找到适合自己最好的方法来应付考试。 2. 在陆空通话上下功夫。自己听不懂，是由于单词不熟悉，还是没听到，或者是紧张出现“大脑空白”，还是来不及记下关键信息。自己是出于哪个问题，一定先要做好定位，再采取行动解决，比如，若是对陆空通话中数字反应较慢的同学，我建议在课本中找到相应的练习题进行大量练习。又如，对特情“毫无头绪”的同学，我建议你找到《陆空通话》最后几章，首先准确地记忆单词，其次，模仿书上的例子。自己不会说没关系，多去背，模仿别人会说的，这样才能做到胸有成竹。

　　第三部分 陆空通话

　　这部分，你扮演飞行员，与空管进行一次陆空通话。你的飞机呼号等信息会显示在屏幕上。对话开始后，你应仔细听话外音或空管的指令。 一共有15至20句对话。你必须在每个对话后根据提示做出相关的回答。每句陆空通话仅念一遍。

　　应试技巧：最近这部分题的难度增加较大，不再像以前一样发音清晰、录音中也有杂音干扰。并且，特情部分也被增加。像简单的readback出现较少，更多的考察你的应急陆空英语，比如说，遇到heart attack了，你会怎么说(熟悉的同学知道这类情况属于urgency, 所以应选 呼panpan)那么遇到bomb threat了，又应该怎么说(mayday,…,…, request bomb disposal squad 拆弹小组)。所以，这部分，不仅考查日常英语表达能力，也考察陆空通话专业知识。日常英语有欠缺的，建议找来近期的OPI背诵。陆空通话有问题的，不用说，多听多练多说，practice makes perfect.

　　第四部分 OPI (口语面试)

　　这部分你会通过电脑和一位OPI考官进行面试对话。你的屏障上会有一张图片。考官会就图片问你一些问题。你的回答会被录制下来，考试时间最长为15分钟。
