Critical to testing is me concept of language proficiency or ability which consists two components of language competence (or language knowledge) and strategic competence. A communicative approach to testing is demanding to catch up with the new teaching concept and to measure a learner' s cornmunicative competence. Communicative language tests are intended to measure people' s ability to use language communicatively in a variety of real life situations.展开更多
