The testing of speaking is widely regarded as the most challenging of all language exams. For this reason, many people don't even try to measure the speaking skill. They simply don't know where to begin the task of evaluating spoken language. On the other hand, with the development of domestic English teaching and testing, along with that of economy of our country, tests for spoken English have been yearned for due to the fact that more and more qualified English speakers are desired in all walks of life. However, when we cheer for the application of spoken English tests for non-English majors (i.e. PETS and CET-SET), we have to admit that the study of testing spoken English within our country is still at its early stage, and so much remains to be desired.One purpose of this thesis is to remove a good deal of mystery surrounding speaking tests.
