影响测试有效性的因素
——1995年英译汉及详解
The standardized educational or psychological tests that are widely used to aid in selecting, classifying, assigning, or promoting students, employees, and military personnel have been the target of recent attacks in books, magazines, the daily press, and even in congress.【F1】
The target is wrong, for in attacking the tests, critics divert attention from the fault that lies with ill-informed or incompetent users.
The tests themselves are merely tools, with characteristics that can be measured with reasonable precision under specified conditions. Whether the results will be valuable, meaningless, or even misleading depends partly upon the tool itself but largely upon the user.
All informed predictions of future performance are based upon some knowledge of relevant past performance: school grades, research productivity, sales records.【F2】
How well the predictions will be validated by later performance depends upon the amount, reliability, and appropriateness of the information used and on the skill and wisdom with which it is interpreted.
Anyone who keeps careful score knows that the information available is always incomplete and that the predictions are always subject to error.
Standardized tests should be considered in this context. They provide a quick, objective method of getting some kinds of information about what a person learned, the skills he has developed, or the kind of person he is. The information so obtained has, qualitatively, the same advantages and shortcomings as other kinds of information.【F3】
Whether to use tests, other kinds of information, or both in a particular situation depends, therefore, upon the evidence from experience concerning comparative validity and upon such factors as cost and availability.
【F4】
In general, the tests work most effectively when the qualities to be measured can be most precisely defined and least effectively when what is to be measured or predicted cannot be well defined.
Properly used, they provide a rapid means of getting comparable information about many people. Sometimes they identify students whose high potential has not been previously recognized, but there are many things they do not do.【F5】
For example, they do not compensate for gross social inequality, and thus do not tell how able an underprivileged youngster might have been had he grown up under more favorable circumstances.
【F2】
选项
答案
这些测试在多大程度上为后来的表现所证实,这取决于所采用信息的数量、可靠性和适应性,以及解释这些信息的技能和才智。
解析
本句考查的重点是:主语从句和并列结构。 句子的结构是:①How well…引导的被动结构是主语从句,How well是主语从句中的状语前置.depends是句子谓语。②depends后面两个介词短语作并列宾语upon…and on…。③the information used是名词+定语。④with which it is interpreted定语从句,先行词是the skill and wisdom,代词it指代the information。
