NMET９７聽力試題評述
國家教委考試中心97年在廣東省進行高考英語聽力測試試點，此舉引起了全國中學英語教師的極大關注。 本文擬對NMET97聽力試題作一評介。（試題附后）
一、NMET97聽力試題介紹
廣東省在今年的NMET中增加了聽力測試，但今年成績不計入總分，僅作參考。98年以10％計入總分，99年 以20％計入總分。今年廣東省英語高考時間是2小時30分，聽力在NMET筆試前進行，共30分鐘。 聽力測試結(jié)束 后發(fā)筆試試卷，考生繼續(xù)進行筆試。
聽力試題由四段簡單的對話和兩段短文組成，共809個單詞， 要求考生根據(jù)聽到的內(nèi)容回答試卷上的問題 。每一段文字讀兩遍，每個問題給考生25秒鐘時間回答，錄音速度適中，考生能夠適應。
整個試卷的題目安排體現(xiàn)了從易到難，循序漸進的原則。對話和短文，對話在前，因為對話更接近生活， 句子結(jié)構(gòu)和用詞相對容易。在對話中，第一段和第四段對話之間又呈梯形排列。第一段對話的內(nèi)容、長度和要 求回答問題的難度都不及第四段對話。
短文要求考生能聽懂一段連貫的表達，其內(nèi)容和現(xiàn)實生活相關，但語言結(jié)構(gòu)和詞匯比對話稍難。其中第五 段短文共有258 個詞匯，占聽力試卷詞匯量的四分之一；第六段短文接近于新聞稿。
二、NMET97聽力試題評價
國家教委在廣東進行加試聽力的試驗，其目的就是對高考進行改革，使高考能更好地反作用于中學英語教 學，更有利于大學選拔人才，逐步解決我國英語教學耗時長，效率低的現(xiàn)狀。今年高考結(jié)束后，教師們普遍反 映，聽力試題的命題是成功的。成功之處就在于命題者能依據(jù)當代應用語言學的研究成果，著眼于高考命題的 整體改革，把測試考生語言運用能力作為測試的目標，沒有在辨音、辨句或簡單的交際問答里兜圈子（這是學 生在學習英語的起始階段應解決的問題）；而是圍繞培養(yǎng)學生在聽的過程中獲取信息的能力設置試題。命題者 選擇了聽覺輸入最常見的兩種形式：對話和敘述；并圍繞日常話題（如學習，求助等），使內(nèi)容貼近考生生活 實際。這樣做既符合中學英語教學大綱的要求，也符合社會生活和繼續(xù)學習對考生英語聽能的要求。
三、NMET97聽力試題給我們的啟示
試題提示我們，中學英語教學一定要在培養(yǎng)學生運用英語的能力上下功夫，英語教學既要給學生講必要的 語言知識，更要強調(diào)培養(yǎng)學生用英語進行交際的能力。交際能力并不僅限于聽說能力（目前中學英語界的一個 認識誤區(qū)就是“交際能力＝聽說能力”），它也包括讀寫能力。
試題也提示我們，高考英語試題和英語的各類水平測試都要進行改革。高考是教學的“指揮棒”。它對中 學英語教學的反撥作用目前還沒有別的手段可以代替。高考增加了聽力測試，部分省市的高中畢業(yè)會考增加了 聽力測試，全國各地的中考都增加了聽力測試，這是中學英語考試改革的重要一步。我們認為，在有聽力測試 的情況下，原來流行的書面考查語音的試題已無繼續(xù)的必要。在教學中，我們應該要求學生注意發(fā)音，但通過 大量的書面試題測試語音并不能解決學生的語音問題；以前這樣做是為了引導教師注意語音和口語教學。
四、NMET聽力試題與NMET復試的關系
廣東省報考外語專業(yè)的考生要參加NMET復試。其他省市稱這種復試為口試。復試內(nèi)容包括聽力測試（占55 ％），語言測試（占15％）和口試（占30％）；也就是說，報考外語專業(yè)的考生參加NMET97聽力測試后，還要 參加NMET97復試的聽力測試。
這里，筆者簡介一下廣東省NMET復試的三種題型：
1.聽力：聽力有三道大題。第一大題是聽力理解。題型和NMET聽力試題一樣，由六段對話和講話組成，共 20個問題，涉及購機票，地鐵經(jīng)歷，太空旅行，求職，婦女地位等內(nèi)容。每段對話或講話僅播一遍，每小題答 題時間為20秒，語速較快。
第二大題是語音聽辨。其中第1小題是辨音， 要求考生從所給四個不同的單詞或虛構(gòu)單詞中，選出聽到的 那一個，念一遍，每小題答題時間為10秒。第2小題是辨詞組， 要求考生從所給四個不同的短語中選出聽到的 那一個，念一遍，每小題答題時間為12秒。
第三大題是分辨句子重音與句子的意義。舉例如下：
下面你可以聽到五組小對話，試卷上印出了每組對話中的第二句原話，后跟A，B，C，D四個句子，請注意 聽對話的重音，并據(jù)此指出A，B，C，D四個句中哪個在意思上與原句最接近。每組對話念一遍， 每題給15秒鐘 回答時間。
錄音：—I go sailing every day in summer.
—I go fishing every day in summer.
答卷：I go fishing every day in summer.
A.It is in summer that I go fishing every day.
B.It is fishing that I go every day.
C.I like fishing so much that I go every day.
D.I am the one who goes fishing every day.（答案為B）
2.語言觀察：語言觀察有三道大題。舉例如下：
A ）請在下列每對句子中指出：第一句的劃線部分在句法結(jié)構(gòu)上相當于第二句的哪一個部分。
The soldiers caught the spy.
──
