China to roll out first scale for English proficiency
China's first scale for English proficiency levels will be implemented June 1 according to the Ministry of Education and State Language Affairs Commission.
《中国英语能力等级量表》已由教育部(Ministry of Education)、国家语言文字工作委员会(State Language Affairs Commission)发布，将于6月1日起实施。这是面向我国英语学习者的首个英语能力测评标准。
The scale -- the first comprehensive scaling system for teaching, learning and testing the language -- will be helpful in unifying various English tests with different standards and deepening the interconnection between exams at home and abroad.
《中国英语能力等级量表》的制定，旨在为各类外语考试提供科学的能力指标体系和准确的能力标尺，使考试设计更加全面、系统，为不同学习成果的沟通互认提供依据，促进各学段衔接，促进英语教、学、测的协调发展，提升外语学习质量与功效。
The scale is divided into nine levels based on English proficiency, covering all the education periods from elementary school to university.
Specifically, levels 1-2 are for elementary students, level 3 is for junior high school students, level 4 is for high school students, levels 5-6 are for college students with non-English majors, level 7 is for college students majoring in English, and levels 8-9 are for people with superior English language skills.
Along with defining competencies in listening, speaking, reading and writing, the scale also includes pragmatic competence[1], such as translation and interpretation. This aims to help foster students' practical language capacity, cultural awareness and intercultural communication skills.
[1]pragmatic competence 语用能力
pragmatic [præɡ'mætɪk]
solving problems in a sensible way that suits the conditions that really exist now, rather than obeying fixed theories, ideas, or rules 讲究实际的，重实效的；实用主义的
In business, the pragmatic approach to problems is often more successful than an idealistic one.
在商业活动中，解决问题用实际的方法往往比空想更有成效。
The scale also attaches great significance to the cognitive[2] development of language learning so as to better cultivate students' thinking abilities.
[2]cognitive：connected with thinking or conscious mental processes 感知的；认知的；认识力的
Some of her cognitive functions have been impaired.

It should be noted that the scale is not a teaching or exam syllabus[3], in which the requirements for the nine levels are not compulsory for students.
据介绍，量表不是教学大纲，也不是考试大纲，量表的九个等级并不是对学生的强制性要求。

English language testing in China is still highly fragmented[4], with a range of tests being used at different levels. To unify the varying standards and targets of the English language testing regime across the country, the National Education Examination Authority[教育部考试中心] is now working on the development of a National English Proficiency Test.
教育部考试中心着手在量表的基础上研发英语能力等级考试，减少重复考试，为提升考试系统性奠定基础；具体实施方案正在研究中。
[4]fragmented：consisting of several separate parts 支离破碎的，分裂的
In this increasingly fragmented society, a sense of community is a thing of the past.
