全国英语等级考试(Public English Test
System,简称PETS),是教育部考试中心设计并负责的全国性英语水平考试体系。作为中、英两国政府的教育交流合作项目,在设计过程中它得到了英国专家的技术支持。级别划分为PETS-1至5级。考试分笔试和口试两部分,内容包括:听力、语言知识、阅读、写作、口语。笔试和口试均合格者,由教育部考试中心颁发给《全国英语等级考试合格证书》。合格证书既可作为持有者英语能力水平的权威性证明;又可为各地各单位对其所用人才的英语水平提供一个公正、统一的评价尺度。
PETS简史
1999年6月,教育部考试中心举行新闻发布会,向社会正式介绍PETS考试体系。同年九月PETS1~4考试在北京、天津、辽宁、浙江、山东、河南、广东等10省市试举行。2000年考试扩大到15省市,考试人数近100000人,2007年,全国英语等级考试(PETS)考生人数首次突破百万大关,五个级别的各次考生总人数达到1005211人。1999年9月起有关单位用PETS-5考试正式取代了过去的WSK
EPT考试。我国教育考试中心正在用PETS2、PETS4考试的标准改造高考与研究生考试中的英语考试。现正计划用PETS2考试分别取代自考公外的英语1级考试。
