一般包括英語口語和英語聽力兩大部分。考生對此不可小視，復試前一定要注重語感的練習。

1、英語口語

對口語的考查，各個學校各不相同。有的學校制定了非常詳細的標準和流程，甚至規定了每個老師發問的方式和時間；有的只是面試老師的自由發揮，成績也基本上由面試老師主觀判定。不管面試是否嚴格控制，考生對下面幾個問題一定要認真準備：一是自我介紹，如自己來自什么地方，畢業學校，所學專業，業余喜好，家庭基本情況等信息；二是做好用英語講解自己專業的準備。口語測試時老師有可能要求你就本專業展開話題，考查你用英語講解陌生概念的能力。因此考生對此要有所準備，先用筆頭組織這些問題的要點，然后再以這些詞組織語言。在閱讀專業文獻時，也要多積累一些專業方面的英語詞匯。當然提問的問題不可能難度太高。

1)評價標準：

(1)語言準確性(語法和用詞的準確性、語法結構的復雜性、詞匯的豐富程度、發音的準確性)

(2)話語的長短和連貫性(內容的連貫性、尋找合適詞語而造成的停頓頻率及長短、表達思想的語言長短等)

(3)語言的靈活性和適合性(語言表達是否靈活、自然，話語是否得體，語言能否與語境、動能和目的相適應)

2)口語測試一般包含如下兩部分：

第一部分：考查學生理解并回答有關日常生活、家庭、工作、學習等問題的能力(3--5分鐘)。

第二部分：考查學生連續表達的能力。考生從所給的問題中選擇一個話題，就此話題表達自己的看法(7--10分鐘)。

3)評價成績一般為：

(1)優秀--能用外語就指定的話題進行口頭交流，基本沒有困難

(2)良好--能用外語就指定的題材進行口頭交流，雖有些困難，但不影響交流

(3)及格--能用外語就指定的話題進行簡單的口頭交流

(4)不及格--不具有口頭表達能力

2、英語聽力

英語聽力做到精聽與泛聽相結合，聽力測試時，一類是聽提前錄制好的話題，類似大學的四六級外語考試。還有一類可能是隨機抽取話題，讓兩位考生對話，根據各自表現打分。在備考時，考生可以加強歷年四、六級聽力真題的溫習，還可以泛聽一些英語材料，做到精聽與泛聽相結合。例如旅途中、睡覺前都可以聽聽比較成熟的音像資料，提高自己的語感。
