This paper evaluates the performance of students from the English Department, Zhongshan University, in the TEM tests from 1993 to 2000 and analyzes the test results. The author thinks that TEM4 and TEM8 are one of the effective means of measuring students English level and assessing teaching as the information which the test results provide are conducive to improving teaching. Feedback from the analysis of the test results indicates that the Department of English, Zhongshan University, has made some progress in teaching but it has also revealed its own problems, which include the subordination of undergraduate education to postgraduate education, the partly outdated teaching schedule and the shortage of qualified teachers for such academic subjects as English Writing and Translation. Stepping up the current teaching reform may be the only solution to the problems the Department now encounters.
