我的情况是这样的，中级口译已经通过了(包括笔试口试)，现在已经报名考今年九月的高级口译笔试，现在正在准备，不过我没报班。我想请考过的亲谈谈备考及考试经验好吗？真的谢谢大家了。。
1、备考的时候那些书重要呢？要怎么样好好看？
2、高级考试有多难呢？
3、考试的时候有哪些要注意的？我是在杭州考试的'，不是在上海。
1.上海有一套系统辅导高级口译的书，你在书店里或淘宝上都可以找到，看书的重点还是要放在训练上，
2. 高级口译其实并不是很难，关键还是看你的英语基础如何，尤其是听力和口语表达能力，我个人建议你每天坚持听BBC或VOA，阅读China Daily积累一些经济政治词汇。
3.考试时不要紧张，考试过程中注意做好速记，特别是关键词，翻译时不要中断，可以使用一些语气词来延长时间思考。
4.我考前报了一个上外的考前冲刺班，感觉效果还可以，主要是熟悉考试的流程，供你参考。
考试也需要一点点运气，有时候考试的话题你熟悉的话，考试就很顺利，有时候碰到你不熟悉的话题，稍微就麻烦了，我个人就考了两次，第二次通过的，
第一部分：听力(30分钟，50分)
SECTION 1 LISTENING TEST 45 minutes
Part A Spot dictation
Directions: In this part of the test, you will hear a passage and read the same passage with blanks in it. Fill in each of the blanks with the word or words you have heard on the tape. Write your answer in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET. Remember you will hear the passage ONLY ONCE.
We already live in an over-communicated world that will only become more so in the next tech era. We’ve developed technology that gets us so much information that we’ve got cell phones ringing every second. We’ve got computers and laptops. We’ve got personal organizers. And we’re just being bombarded with communication and every advancing technology seems to create more and more communications at us. We are thought of over-whelmed by the information flow.
Research suggests that all the multi-tasking may actually make our brains work better and faster, producing a world-wide increase in IQ up to 20 points and more in recent decades. Is there any real benefit in all these mental gymnastics we now have to go through? We are not becoming a race of global idiots, but many do think certain skills are enhanced and certain are not. You know the ability to make fast decisions, to answer a dozen emails in 5 minutes or to fill out maybe big aptitude text. That’s enhanced.
But when someone is out there with his kids laying in his little league, or something like that, he’s got his cell phone in his pocket, he is always wondering: “Jeez, did I get a voicemail?” This might have negative effects on our own brains patterns. Creativity is something that happens slowly. It happens when your brain is just noodling around, just playing. When it puts together ideas which you haven’t thought of, or maybe you have time to read a book. You are a business person but you have time to read a book about history or about a philosopher and something that happened long ago, or something or some ideas, some default of long ago.
Actually, it might occur to you that you can think of your own business in that way. And so if this mixture of unrelated ideas that feeds your productivity, feeds your creativity, and if your mind is disciplined to answer every email, then you don’t have time for that playful noodling, you don’t have time for those unexpected conjunctions. So I think maybe we are getting smarter in some senses, but over communication is a threat to our creativity and to our reflection.

SECTION 4 LISTENING TEST 30 minutes
Part A Note-taking and Gap-filling
Directions: In this part of the test you will hear a short talk. You will hear the talk ONLY ONCE. While listening to the talk, you may take notes on the important points so that you can have enough information to complete a gap-filling task on a separate ANSWER BOOKLET. You will not get your ANSWER BOOKLET until after you have listened to the talk.
Today my topic is cultures and traditional holidays.
Holiday are special times of respite from work and other routines. In some cases, they are legal holidays when stores, businesses and government offices are officially closed. In other cases, they are celebrated without taking time off from work. Holidays are often times for celebration, revelry, eating, drinking, travel, and family gatherings, but they may also be times of rest and reflection. The current trend is away from rest and reflection, Even Mardi Gras, the day before the traditionally reflective period of Lent, has turned into an entire week of parties, parades and merry-making for those who make the annual pilgrimage to New Orleans, for example.
In most cultures the scheduling of holidays originally was related to the seasons, the lunar cycle, and religion, Christmas (December 25) celebrates the birth of Jesus, but it is not actually known whether Jesus was born in the wintertime. The first Roman emperor to espouse Christianity decided to have Christmas when the days are shortest to bring a spirit of optimism to the long winter months. It also helped bring Christianity to the pagans, who were accustomed to having festivals at the winter solstice, encouraging warmth and sunshine to return. Over the years Christmas has come to symbolize goodwill and generosity for both Christians and non-Christians through the personification of Santa Claus, originally a Christian saint, known as St,Nicholas. Nowadays Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer is almost as important a global symbol of Christmas as Jesus or Santa and the commercialization of Christmas threatens to replace generosity with greed. Many people forget that the original Christmas gifts were given by the Three Wise Men, all pagans, to Jesus, a Jewish child born in a manger. All they think of are the gifts they will give or receive, and all the money they have spent.
One reason for the increasing popularity of Christmas is its proximity to New Year’s Day, encouraging a long holiday to evolve out of both. In the U,S., the holiday has turned into an extended holiday season, lasting from Thanksgiving Day in late November until New Year’s Day, with a seemingly endless array of parties, dinners, concerts, parades, and vacation trips. The schools and colleges are closed from mid-December through early January while many people eat too much, drink too much, and watch too much American football on TV. Many gifts, cards, and annual newsletters are exchanged, and the various festivities are not always very restful. Then the same people make New Year’s Resolutions to eat less, drink less, spend less, and work harder in the coming year.
Christmas is by far the most important holiday in English-speaking countries. Other important holidays in addition to Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day are Valentine’s Day, St.Patrick’s Day, April Fools’ Day, and Easter. On Valentine’s Day, celebrated on February 14, people give cards, chocolates, flowers, and kisses to their spouses and sweethearts. On St.Patrick’s Day, March 17, people wear green to celebrate the luck of the Irish, and eat corned beef and cabbage washed down with green beer. During Easter Week in late March or early April, Christians remember the death and resurrection of Jesus while Jews celebrate Passover, in memory of the escape of the Jews from ancient Egypt, where they had been slaves. Although it is not actually a holiday and has no religious connotation, April Fools’ Day, celebrated on April 1, is a day when people play embarrassing tricks on their friends and colleagues and even on their teachers. Another holiday with some similarity to April Fools’ Day is Halloween on October 31,when children wear funny or scary costumes and ask their neighbors for, “tricks or treats”, The name Halloween means, hallowed evening”, the night before All Saints’ Day when Christian saints are honored. On the following day, All Souls’ Day, services and prayers are said for the dead. In many countries, it is a day when families visit cemeteries and place flowers on the tombs of their relatives. In Europe, Labor Day is celebrated on May 1, whereas in Canada and the United States, labor and laborers are honored by a legal holiday on the first Monday in September.

II. Passage Translation
Directions: In this part of the test, you will hear 2 English passages. You will hear the passages ONLY ONCE. After you have heard each passage, translate it into Chinese and write your version in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET. You may take notes while you are listening.
1. 原文：Owing to the over population in urban areas and the lack of employment opportunity, the crime rate is also a huge problem we are faced with. The problem of delinquency is increasingly more serious in this area. Also the lack of the traditional family structure and weakened bounds of kinship, lower the moral of these children growing up in the urban areas. These children grow up in poverty and usually look at crimes as a quick and easy way out. The problems in urban areas are far more than can be handled in any short-term efforts. We can only hope to contain them, and attempt to make sure that no more problems arise from the already existing ones.

Passage 1

Passage 2:
Online truth is more valuable than privacy
Not so long ago I found myself in characteristically pugnacious discussion with a senior human rights figure. The issue was privacy. Her view was that there was an innate and largely unchanging human need for privacy. My view was that privacy was a culturally determined concept. Think of those open multiseated Roman latrines in Pompeii, and imagine having one installed at work.
The specific point was whether there was a generational difference in attitudes towards privacy, partly as a consequence of internet social networking. I thought that there was. As a teenager I told my parents absolutely nothing and the world little more. Some girls of that era might be photographed bare-breasted at a rock festival, and some guys might be pictured smoking dope but, on the whole, once we left through the front door, we disappeared from sight.
My children — Generation Y, rather than the Generation X-ers who make most of the current fuss about privacy — seem unworried by their mother’s capacity to track them and their social lives through Facebook. In fact, they seem unworried by anybody’s capacity to see what they’re up to — until, of course, it goes wrong. They seem to want to be in sight, and much effort goes into creating the public identity that they want others to see.
There was an estimate last month that Facebook has something like 130 million unique visits every day. It now acts as a vast market place for ideas, preferences, suggestions and actings-out, extending far beyond the capacity of conventional institutions to influence. And the privacy issues it raises have little to do with the conventional obsessions such as CCTV or government data-mining.
At a conference at the weekend I heard that some US colleges have taken to looking at the Facebook sites of applicants before they think to alter them before an interview. This may turn out to be apocryphal, but such a thing certainly could be done. In this era of supplementing exam grades with personal statements and character assessments, what could be more useful than an unguarded record of a student’s true enthusiasms? What else did Tristram do on his horizon-expanding journey to the developing world?
This would have driven me crazy. My daughter’s college friends, she says, are “pretty chilled” about it. There are the odd occasions when a vinous clinch is snapped on a mobile phone and makes the social rounds to the embarrassment of the clinchers, but whatever will be will be.
An EU survey two years ago suggested that this is the pattern more generally. The researchers discovered what seemed to be a paradox: although half of their young respondents were confident in their own ability to protect their online privacy, only a fifth thought it a practical idea to give users in general “more control over their own identity data”。 In other words (and this is my interpretation) they didn’t think that their peers could be bothered with extra protection and they felt fairly happy with their own.
Meanwhile, their elders try to get them concerned about issues such as internet data harvesting by private companies. A US news report last week concerned the work done to create “privacy nudges” — software that reminds users at certain moments that the information they are about to divulge has implications for privacy. One privacy campaigner even suggested that people might be rewarded with lottery tickets for not giving out such knowledge.
I have to say, as someone who often elects to receive online mailshots from companies operating in areas in which I’m interested, that this seems to me to miss the main problem. As long as you have the right to say “no” to a company’s blandishments, I don’t see a huge problem. That’s why the now notorious Italian bullying video seems much more relevant. At the end of last week three Google employees were sentenced in absentia for breaching the privacy of a handicapped boy, whose horrid treatment at the hands of his Turin schoolmates had been posted on Google Video. This clip spent several months in circulation before being taken down.
Almost everyone — including our former Information Commissioner — agrees that the sentence was wrong, perverse and a kick in the teeth for free speech, with implications that could (but won’t) undermine the internet. And they are quite right. But look at it, for a moment, from the point of view of the boy’s parent, or the boy himself. They must have felt powerless and damaged. So how much control or ownership can one have over one’s own image and reputation?
The second great question, then, raised with regard to the net is what might be called “reputation management”, or — if you like — public identity management. What is it that you want people to know about you, and can you have control over it?
Last weekend I was alerted to two new phenomena, both of which caused me to miss a heartbeat. The first was the possibility of using a program, or employing someone, to “suicide” you online. Recently a company in Rotterdam used its Facebook presence to advertise its “web 2.0 suicide machine”, which would act as “a digital Dr Kevorkian [and] delete your online presence” from Facebook, MySpace, Twitter and LinkedIn, not just on your own sites but on everyone else’s — leaving just a few “last words”。
Unfortunately Facebook chucked the suicide machine off its premises, so it then suicided itself, ending with the words “no flowers, no speeches”。
As a journalist I was horrified by the implications of online suiciding. In the first place it means the erasure of documentary history. And second it raises the possibility of routine doctoring of material on the internet to render it more palatable to the offended.
The second phenomenon was worse. It was that some people, many perhaps, might seek to undermine any informational authority on the web by flooding it with false information, thus obliquely protecting their own identities. As an occasional target of such misinformation, sometimes playfully (as when an unknown person amended my Wikipedia entry to make me Serbian by birth), and sometimes maliciously, I know it can play merry hell with everyone’s sense of reality.
In other words it seemed to me that there was a threat much worse than that to privacy, and that was of privacy- induced attempts to bend or erase the truth that is essential to the value of the internet. Lack of privacy may be uncomfortable. Lack of truth is fatal.

高级口译笔试经验
应聘口译职位的笔试经验送给大家，请关注应届毕业生笔试频道
一、什么样水平的人考高口比较有戏
我在学校时考的四六级还是100分，05年的托福还是750分制的，我的感觉，按老分制，六级能考到70分以上，托福600分以上，词汇量比较大，起码7000以上吧，可以直接报高口了，其他考试没试过，所以不在这里说了。
二、要不要买指定教材
我的答案是：一定要买，不过不用每本都买，五本书里，我认为，买听力，口译两本就够了，听力是准备笔试的。，口译是准备口试的，而且一定要下教材的MP3的配套录音。其他练习材料，比如新东方或昂立的什么，我都没买，除了教材，我只做真题，买一套历年真题，一个礼拜扎实做一套，足够了。
三、关于辅导班
应该要上，但不要指望辅导班能大幅提升你的水平，功夫还是要自己下在平时，上辅导班，最大的作用是收集信息，关于考试的方方面面，还有考试的同道，互相的交流非常重要，看看班里比较优秀的同学，往往过高口就是他们的水平，对比一下，看看自己哪方面还有差距。另外上辅导班也算是逼着自己学习，考前的冲刺班有必要上上，老师往往是考官，不要指望他给你透题，但他告诉你考试中要注意什么，还有考试小技巧，非常重要，运用的好，过于不过，就在这一线间。
四、个人的准备方法
对于笔试，我准备的较早，因为工作后没怎么摸英语，为了找回感觉，需要付出更大的代价，我从08年10月中开始上辅导班（我只上听力和口译，翻译阅读都不去，因为觉得那不是我的弱项），最初两个月不看教材，也不做真题，只听美国之音，每天三篇，先放一遍，再来回精听，尤其是听不懂的地方，看过文字后，再反复听，直到全篇每个单词都听出来为止，
这么做的目的，只有一个，提高综合听力能力，高口笔试听力占1/3，采集者退散口试八段录音翻译英译汉四段，而且是考试最难的部分，不下苦功夫不行。两个月后，美国之音放一遍，能听懂50%到70%的话，OK，可以了。开始啃教材。
针对个人特点，我听力较差，所以下班后的学习时间全都集中在听力上，每天照例两篇美国之音，不过以泛听为主，热热身，再练习听力的教材（阅读和写作翻译我只靠每周六的一套真题练习，不专门练了，我始终认为听力最重要）。
如果你不重视教材，那就错了，教材是最接近实考试题的材料了，无论内容，语速，腔调，风格，建议每位同学，把教材练三遍，哪怕看着材料听三遍，也行。配套MP3网上都有下的，不用买磁带了。两天一课，15课（好像是）练完，也就一个月，所以你完全有时间在笔试前把教材练三遍，关键在坚持。
五、口试的准备
其实很多学友最头疼的不是笔试，而是口试，我也一样，因为这击中了大多数中国学生最薄弱的地方，听，说，记忆。口试难就难在还的记下来，不能听懂了大意就可以过关了，必须要复述，所以还的学速记方法，一心二用。
我个人的感觉，听力是基础，听力不过关，再练速记也是白采集者退散搭，只有在听力过关的基础上你才能分心来记笔记，6分脑记，4分笔记，否则写出来的一定是一片自己看不懂的碎片。
