【摘要】 阅读理解是初中毕业学业考试(以下简称中考)英语科目中最重要的部分,阅读材料的输入真实性直接决定着阅读测试的整体有效性并影响着考生的阅读理解得分。本文拟通过以下研究问题,探讨湖南省中考英语阅读材料输入真实性:1.湖南省中考英语阅读理解材料输入真实性的整体特征是什么?2.湖南省中考英语阅读材料输入真实性是否存在明显的历时及地区性特征?若有,主要体现在哪些方面?3.从输入真实性来看,湖南省中考英语阅读材料多大程度上符合《湖南省初中毕业学业考试标准》和初中《英语课程标准》的要求?本文在巴赫曼(1995)的交际语言能力观和交际性语言测试的框架下,运用巴赫曼和帕尔默(2000)的任务特征框架,对2015年及2016年湖南省14个地州市的中考英语试卷中阅读理解材料(共计141篇)进行分析,采用定量和定性研究相结合的方法。通过分析得出以下结论:1.整体而言,湖南省14个地州市的中考英语阅读理解材料都较好地体现了材料的输入真实性,尤其是语言形式、词数、话题、语法方面以及可读性等方面体现了材料输入真实性。2.历时地看,总体上未见明显的年度特点,但2016年的中考英语阅读材料在语言形式上较倾向于使用文字和图片的搭配组合,词数上略有增加,话题更贴近于当时的社会环境,与学生的生活息息相关。按地区来看,在遵循“两纲”的基础上,湖南省各地的中考英语阅读材料根据学生的实际特点及各地教育水平,因地制宜,阅读理解在难度上和长度上皆有不同,总的来说,存在着明显的地区差异性,发达地区如长沙中考英语阅读材料每年的词数和难度最大,而落后地区如湘西、张家界每年的词数和难度较小。3.从输入真实性来看,中考英语阅读材料讲究对语言的运用,注重对学生综合能力的培养和考察。对阅读材料的选择,在输入真实性上基本满足和符合湖南省初中毕业学业考试标准和初中《英语课程标准》的要求。

【Abstract】 Reading comprehension is regarded as the most important part in the subject of English in Junior Secondary Graduation Test(JSGT).Moreover,the input authenticity in the reading materials directly determines the overall validity of the reading test and the final score of the reading comprehension for the test takers.This thesis aims to explore the input authenticity of the English reading materials of JSGT through the following questions:1.What are the overall characteristics of the input authenticity presented in the reading materials of Junior Secondary English Achievement Graduation Test(JSEAGT)in Hunan?2.Are there any obvious chronological and regional characteristics in the input authenticity of JSEGAT in Hunan?If yes,then what aspects are the characteristics presented in?3.To what extent are the reading materials of JSEAGT in Hunan consistent with the Testing Standard of JSEAGT in Hunan and English Curriculum Standard from the perspective of the input authenticity?Under the theories of communicative language ability and communicative language testing(Bachman,1995),and based on the Framework of Task Characteristics(Bachman&Palmer,2000),this thesis analyzes qualitatively and quantitatively the input authenticity of 141 reading comprehension passages of Hunan JSEAGT in 2015 and 2016.The major findings are summarized as follows:1.The reading materials of Hunan JSEAGT in 2015 and 2016 well embodied the input authenticity,especially from the form of presentation,passage length,topic characteristics,grammatical characteristics and readability.2.No obvious chronological features are observed except the following features.The form of presentation of the reading materials in 2016 is characterized by the combination of language and pictures(non-language),the slight increase in the passage length,the more society-related and school-life-centered topics.Considering the actual ability of the students and the local English teaching level,the difficulty and length of the reading materials are taken into account in the JSEAGT in different cities.Therefore,there are distinct regional differences:the reading materials in the developed cities like Changsha are always longer and more difficult whereas reading materials in the less developed areas like Xiangxi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture and Zhangjiajie are shorter and easier.3.From the perspective of input authenticity,the reading materials of JSEAGT in Hunan attach great importance to students’ English language use and comprehensive ability.The input authenticity of the reading materials of Hunan JSEAGT is almost consistent with the Testing Standard of JSEAGT in Hunan and English Curriculum Standard for Junior Students.
