前言
众所周知,随着时代的快速发展,托福也采取了新的考试形式。但是,在美国教授托福多年,我一直有这样一个疑问:托福这种考试是否可以测试出一个考生的真实英语实力?拿到了满意的托福分数,是否可以真的在美国大学里自如地学习?答案是否定的。即使拿到了美国大学所要求的托福分数,但入学以后,有些学生由于听力水平低下,跟不上课程,不能顺利完成上课时要求的报告,因而得到非常差的分数;有些学生由于对自己的英语没有自信,不能在以讨论为主的美国教育方式中大胆开口说话,只好保持沉默。同时,他们在现实生活中也遇到了这样那样的问题。也许ETS最为忧虑的便是,有些学生即便得到了学校要求的托福分数,得以进入学校学习,但实际上他们却在很多方面未达到入学要求。应该如何避免这些情形的发生呢?ETS苦思冥想以后,提出的解决方案便是:加强写作能力测试,取消语法考试,增加口语考试。
