2014-2018年高考英语全国卷阅读理解试题内容效度历时研究

A Content Validity Study of Reading Comprehension in NMET( 2014-2018 National Test Papers)

依据《课程标准》和《考试大纲》相关要求,以2014年至2018年高考英语全国卷为研究对象,从语篇输入和预期回答两方面对高考英语阅读理解试题进行内容效度分析。研究表明,近五年高考英语全国卷阅读理解试题整体上符合《课程标准》和《考试大纲》要求,具有较高的内容效度,主要体现在体裁多样、题材广泛、文章长度及难度适中、阅读技能覆盖面较广;同时,也存在部分文章难度偏大、文章排序不够合理等不足。最后,尝试为高考英语阅读理解试题命制和高中英语教学提供一些建议。

Based on the reading requirements in National Matriculation English Test（ NMET） testing syllabus and the Curriculum Standard（ 2017）,this paper carried on a diachronic analysis on the content validity of the reading comprehension passages in 2014 to 2018 NMET National versions from the perspectives of discourse input and expected responses. The findings indicate that the reading test from 2014 to 2018 are generally in line with the requirements of the curriculum standard and testing syllabus and the content validity is generally high for the diverse passage genres and abundant topics,appropriate length and difficulty of the reading passages,and relatively wide coverage of reading skills. However,some aspects are still to be improved. According to the findings,some suggestions are put forward on the quality of future NMET reading comprehension,and improvement of high school teaching and learning.
