For the English language learning,we have two different purposes.One is the short-term purpose,that is the exams;the other one is the long-term purpose,that is the communication.Perhaps,the most important thing for us to learn English is to communicate with the other people with this language.That is why we have the listening test in the entrance-exam to college or university.But,it is so difficult for most of the Chinese students to speak or to under what they have heard.Therefore,we have to work much harder with it so that we can speal fluent English after graduation in the future.
Passage 2:
Some people think that we need the English oral test.According to their points of view,they think that the oral English,or the spoken English is the final purpose of the English language study.Why should we learn English language?Because we want to communicate with the other people,especially with foreigners.And they regard the English language as a bridge to the different cultures.Meanwhile,some people think is is unnecessary for us to have the English interview.They think it is a burden for the students. And the English interview will increase the difficulty of the language learning.Personally I think,it is certainly necessary for students to practise their oral English,only because,after graduation from the colleges,we will work in a foreign company,or work with foreign people,or some of us will go abroad to get higher education.Therefore,we need the English interview so that we can really learn it well and master it.
