Atest of spoken English will be included as an optional component of the College English Test (CET). The plan attracts wide attention and is discussed hotly.
Some people don't think highly of it, they think a test of spoken English is not necessary. In the first place, the spoken English cannot be judged objectively. Some candidates who perform quite well may be given a low mark,on the contrary, some bad performers maybe get high marks. Secondly,it is very dlffieult to organize a test of spoken English. It requires lots of qualified examiners and time,which cannot become available easily.
Some people hold different ideas. They think a test of spoken English is quite necessary. Speaking is an essential part of English learning, there is no excuse for not testing it. Such a test can motivate students practice their oral English more.
I think a test of spoken English is a good practice. China has entered WTO, we will have more opportunities to communicate with foreigners orally. On some occasions we will be obliged to do so. If we cannot speak English fluently on such occasions,we may lose stone valuable business opportunities. A test of spoken English can urge us to practice more and improve the level of our spoken English.
I will take the test of spoken English.
