When it comes to the test of spoken English, different people have different ideas. Some people think that students should have such a test. However, others oppose test of spoken English.
The people who hold the previous opinion believe that such a test can make college students aware of the importance of spoken English. In addition, the certificate of the test will make job-hunting much easier. Therefore, a test of spoken English is necessary.
However, others advocate the opposite opinion because they believe that a test of spoken English is very difficult to handle and the test time is not long enough to fully display participants" speaking ability in English. Besides, they argue that if a candidate is assigned to a topic which he or she is not familiar with, it is hard to show his or her command of spoken English. So, a test of spoken English should not be held.
