Lecture forecasts half test questions
( 2003-09-23 11:35) (China Daily)
After taking the College
English Test (CET) 4 on Saturday, some students were surprised to find that
nearly half of the test questions were the same as those presented at a paid
lecture on Friday night.
Immediately after finishing the exam, a student named Bao told a reporter
from Beijing Times that many students responded to an ad for a preparatory
lecture on CET 4 to be held at the China University of Geosciences.
The lecture, presented by the Yuhang Exams Training School, charged 50 yuan
(US$6.00) per person.
The potential test questions covered at the lecture were almost exactly the
same as half of those that appeared in the actual CET 4.
Quite a number of students expressed their amazement at the coincidence,
saying it didn't seem fair to students who had not attended the
lecture.
