PhonePassTM
SET考試是通過電話的方式測試受試者口語水平的測試方法。它可以在五到十二分鐘的電話交談中測定出參試者的英語口語實(shí)際聽說能力，由智能電腦系統(tǒng)自動(dòng)評(píng)分。計(jì)分是根據(jù)被測試者在測試期間的電話交談中實(shí)際使用的詞匯、以及在所運(yùn)用的句子和短語中體現(xiàn)出的語速、流利程度及發(fā)音情況來評(píng)估的。該測試服務(wù)和測試結(jié)果為美國、加拿大、德國和中國香港政府所接受認(rèn)可。目前，一些外企已經(jīng)在招聘考試中采用PhonePassTM
SET來測試應(yīng)聘者的口語能力，比如全球第一大日用品公司寶潔。
為了幫大家熟悉一下PhonePassTM SET考試，我們特將寶潔公司的考試樣卷提供給大家（注：樣卷，非實(shí)際考試應(yīng)用的試卷）。

在PhonePassTM SET考試中，有幾點(diǎn)受試者一定要注意：
1. 話筒離嘴巴不能太遠(yuǎn)，也不能太低，否則會(huì)影響通話效果。
2. 當(dāng)不知道如何回答問題的時(shí)候，應(yīng)保持沉默或是回答I don't know。
3. 如果話筒的聲音小，請與監(jiān)考老師聯(lián)系，不要隨意拍打話筒。
4. 在考試過程中不可隨意掛斷，否則成績無效。
5. 當(dāng)聽到Thank you for completing the SMT test的時(shí)候，考試就結(jié)束了，可以掛斷電話。
