一、英语专业四级考试口试简介及评分方法。

根据大纲要求，口试内容将分解为三项：

（1）复述故事（听两遍故事后复述3分种）；

（2）即席讲话（根据所给的题目准备3分钟后，作即席讲话3分钟）；

（3）对话（根据规定的角色各自准备3分钟后，对话4分钟）。

评分项目为五项：

复述、即席讲话、语音语调及语法。

其中，前三项评分针对三项任务的完成情况，后两项是对考生在完成前三项任务中的语音语调及语法的总体评价。

具体评分过程如下：

（1）评分教师首先给三项任务依次打分，但每项任务的评分重点不同。

复述部分强调故事的完整性与条理性；即席讲话强调内容切题、丰富、条理清楚，表达流畅；交谈部分强调讨论充分、遵循交际原则。

（2）评分教师就考生在三项任务中的语音语调与语法进行总体的评价，打综合分。

分数采用百分制，每五分为一档。

（3）将五项分数相加，得到总分。
