Language testing is an important part in English teaching and an important means to evaluate teaching quality.Historically,language testing experienced three periods: separated language testing,synthesized language testing and communicative language testing.In our country's English language testing,there exist the problems such as one-sided view of language testing's function and not-scientific-enough testing method.It's necessary and urgent for teachers to understand the real aim of language testing,to improve testing papers,and to enhance the reliability and validity of testing papers.
