《中國英語能力等級量表》為國內(nèi)各種英語考試提供了科學(xué)的能力測評標準,同時,也對統(tǒng)一我國英語測試的難度標準和建立分級題庫提出了新的要求。閱讀能力測試是我國英語測試體系中很重要的一部分,其中閱讀理解這一題型是測量學(xué)生閱讀能力的一種最常用方法,因此實現(xiàn)對英語測試中閱讀理解題型的難度控制是確保試題質(zhì)量的關(guān)鍵因素。在以往的相關(guān)研究中,大多數(shù)都將文本和題目對閱讀理解測試產(chǎn)生的影響分開來討論,但閱讀理解測試是文本和題目兩者的統(tǒng)一體,單一地探討其中一個方面造成的影響顯然是不夠全面客觀的。因此,本文將文本特征和題目特征都納入到影響閱讀理解測試難度的因素之中,并將文本特征進一步細化為詞匯難度、句法難度、文本難度三個維度,將題目特征定義為閱讀能力要求、范圍、直接程度三個維度,在此基礎(chǔ)上構(gòu)建了閱讀理解測試難度影響因素的分析框架。本研究以2015年至2019年英語高考全國卷為研究對象,對其中56篇閱讀理解文本和所對應(yīng)的210道題目進行了實證研究,通過定性分析和定量分析相結(jié)合的方法得出了以下結(jié)論:首先,在文本特征層面上,句法難度和文本難度對閱讀理解測試難度的影響作用是顯著的,從他們的相關(guān)性系數(shù)(句法難度r=-0....
