摘要
大学英语四、六级考试是具有中国特色的语言测试项目,由我国语言测试学者于20世纪80年代自主设计和开发。本文回顾四、六级考试三十年来的改革和发展历程,阐述其对大学英语教学发展的作用,并结合语言测试的效度理论,探索我国语言测试进一步改革和发展的方向。文章指出,为打造具有中国特色的考试项目,必须重视我国外语教育的国情,深入思考语言测试的社会学问题,坚持走具有中国特色的语言测试道路,使我国的民族品牌考试更加稳健发展,并在不远的将来走出国门,面向世界。
The College English Test (CET), a language testing system with distinctive Chinese characteristics, was designed and developed by Chinese language testers in the 1980s. In this article, a review was undertaken of the reform and development of the CET in the past three decades, focusing on its role in promoting college English teaching and learning. Directions for the further development of language testing in China were discussed based on the validity theory of language testing. It was suggested that language testers in China should pay due attention to the Chinese context and be actively engaged in research on the social dimensions of language testing so as to facilitate a sustained development of domestic language tests with Chinese characteristics and enhance their international recognition.
