Leveraging CPE set texts for intercultural learning and critical literacy in business English programmes
2018, Thorrold, Craig
Many advanced students in business degree programmes seek to gain the CPE qualification, as this certificate provides proof of proficiency in English at C2 level. Preparation for the CPE writing paper provides the opportunity to read and reflect on one or more set texts in order to answer one of the questions in Part 2 of the exam. In the CPE Handbook for teachers, it is explained that “[c]andidates who choose these questions will be expected to have a good knowledge of the text, or the film version, and to be able to deal with the themes and ideas of the chosen text” (Cambridge English Language Assessment, 2016, p. 24). However, “candidates are not expected to demonstrate skill in literary analysis” (Cambridge English Language Assessment, 2016, p. 24).
