由英语竞赛看大学英语工具性和人文性的关系——基于中国矿业大学的个案研究

The Correlation Between the Instrumentality and Humanity of College English as Seen from NECCS——A Case Study of China University of Mining and Technology

大学英语兼具工具性和人文性这一观点已为越来越多的学者和教师所认可,然而国内尚没有关于大学英语工具性和人文性关系的实证研究。为了发现这两者之间的关系,我们以2014年大学生英语竞赛中国矿业大学赛区为试点,从C类初赛试卷中选取充分的样本进行研究,统计分析了考生文化知识类题目和语言技能类题目的得分情况以及两者之间得分率的关系。结果显示:考生文化知识类题目的得分率低于语言技能类题目的得分率并且两者呈现正相关性:文化知识类题目的得分率越高,语言技能类题目的得分率也就越高,反之亦然。

Selecting 1067 valid samples from the preliminary session of 2014 NECCS taken by students from CUMT, this paper calculates samples＇ scores on cultural items （SC for short） and their scores on language skill items （SS for short）, and analyzes the correlation between SC and SS. Results indicate that the scoring average of SC is far below that of SS and that there exists a positive correlation between the two, that is, the scoring average of SS increases as the scoring average of SC increases and vice versa.
