At present, CET-4 is the only German proficiency test in Chinese universities, which is held once a year and on the same day as other languages in June. There is only a written test, and there is no oral test at present. The difficulty of the exam is equivalent to the level 4 stipulated in the college German syllabus. The vocabulary requirement is about 2400. I can master basic grammar and have a certain ability to use language.
The listening part of the test consists of *** 15 questions, which are divided into two sections to test students' ability to obtain oral information. A paragraph 10 questions, listen to a short dialogue (two sentences) for each question, and ask questions after the end. B. Listen to two short paragraphs and ask 2-3 questions and 5 questions after each paragraph. Listen to the dialogues, essays and questions in the listening section twice. The recording speed is 100 words per minute. Compared with CET-4 and CET-6, CET-4 listening is relatively easy. As long as you can finish the listening exercises in the textbook carefully, you can cope with the past with confidence. Reading comprehension reading is also divided into two sections. Read a few short passages in paragraph A, and the total number of words is within 600 words. * * * After reading the article, there are 20 multiple-choice questions, each with 1.5 points; Paragraph B is a cloze. In a short essay of about 150 words, it is also an option for 10 to fill in the blanks. Each question is 1 point. Reading is the difficulty of CET-4, especially cloze. Moreover, reading accounts for the most points. Therefore, we must pay attention to it. Grammar and vocabulary are also divided into two sections, namely multiple-choice questions (20 questions, each with 0.5 points) and word fill-in-the-blank questions (10 questions, each with 1 point, that is, a word is filled in a sentence without making a choice). Grammar and vocabulary account for 70% and 30% respectively. This is actually a difficult point in the exam, because most candidates' basic grammar skills are not very good and their vocabulary is too small. Not many points are still there.
This is a new project that started this year. There are 5 sentences translated from German into Chinese, with a score of *** 10. This sentence should not be difficult, there are no new words. The composition requires you to write a short essay of 80-90 words within 30 minutes, and the subject matter is generally in daily life. Except for the composition, the other three parts are multiple-choice questions. And the proportion of each part of the topic in the total score is different.
Of course, there is also Tongji's German Band 6. You know, there is no CET-6, that is to say, there is only CET-4 (I don't know, because CET-4 is a German major, and it seems that general majors are not allowed to take the exam. There is also TEM-8, just like English. The CET-6 was independently put forward by Tongji University. Both are equally difficult. However, in comparison, the recognition of CET-4 is higher, while that of Tongji is somewhat limited. Maybe it will be reflected when looking for a job. If you want to prove your strength, you can give it a try.
You can apply for a remedial class in Tongji before the CET-6. Please pay attention to Tongji's website for details. They usually make announcements in March and April.
