摘要
今年是实施英语专业四、八级考试的第20个年头,自教育部批准其他外语专业考试开展也已经有10年。本文回顾了外语专业考试的历史,包括考试的背景、考试设计、考纲制定、相关考试研究和考试的影响等,并指出外语专业四、八级考试的成功实施是高等学校外语专业教学指导委员会历任委员们辛勤劳动的成果和心血的结晶,也离不开教育部高教司和各省市自治区教育主管部门的支持。虽然考试的声誉越来越高,但是组织者真心希望各方人士能正确认识这些考试,维护考试影响,增强其对教学的正面反拨作用,从而进一步促进我国外语专业建设。
It has been 20 years since the tests for English majors（TEM 4/8） were first implemented and it has been 10 years since the Ministry of Education approved the implementation of the tests for other foreign language majors.The paper reviews the history of these tests,including the background and the design of the tests,the formulation of the testing syllabuses,researches based on the tests and their impact on foreign language teaching in China.It then points out that the successful implementation of the tests is mainly due to the hard work of the members of the Advisory Committee of TFLM in Colleges and Universities as well as the support from the Higher Education Department of the Ministry of Education and the local departments responsible for education.Finally,the paper appeals to the public for a proper understanding of the tests so as to enhance their positive impact on foreign language teaching and further promote the development of foreign language majors in China.
