The listening and reading sections consist of genuine audio passages and reading texts across a range of proficiency levels to assess language proficiency between Novice Low and Advanced Low. 听力段落和阅读文本在体裁上有所不同, content, 长度, 复杂度取决于目标级别. Each passage or text is followed by one multiple-choice question in English.
作为一种计算机适应性测试, the APPT adapts to the test taker's listening and reading abilities; the computer algorithm selects questions based on the test taker’s performance on previous questions. Test questions will be presented to the test taker until enough information has been gathered to assign a “floor” rating (the level where the test taker has demonstrated sustained performance) and a “ceiling” rating (the level where patterns of breakdown emerge). 然后测试就结束了.
这使得测试在时间和精力上都很有效, lasting up to 60 minutes for both the 阅读和听力 sections. 而考试是不计时的, individual test questions require a response within a predetermined amount of time for each proficiency level.
Each section presents between 10-25 questions depending on the ability of the test taker. A 演示测试 可以在网上找到.
