大学英语阅读测试中文化因素的导入研究

A Study on Integrating Cultural Components into College English Reading Test

多年来,学者们都大力提倡在外语教学中导入文化因素,而在语言测试中却又避免测试文化。这一矛盾导致了文化的教学在课堂上没有得到很好的实现。本文试图改革现有的测试体系,将文化因素导入到语言测试中。并以阅读测试为出发点,力图建构一个模式用于在阅读理解中指导测试和教授文化。其目的是为了推动测试的改革,使文化能真实有效地导入外语教学与测试中。

There seems to exist a contradiction between today’s language teaching and testing. On the one hand,we strongly advocate that culture should be integrated into language teaching;on the other hand,culture is paid little attention to in language testing. This paper aims to reform the existing testing system and tries to introduce cultural factors into language testing. It chooses reading test as the starting point and attempts to construct a model serving as the guideline for teaching and testing culture in reading comprehension. The purpose is to promote the reform of testing and thus culture can be integrated into language teaching and testing effectively.
