摘要(Abstract)：
批判阅读是高水平的阅读过程,需要读者的分析和评价能力。它不仅分析文本说什么,而且分析如何说。本文在综述批判阅读概念和批判阅读能力描述的基础上,建立了一个四阶层次框架作为批判阅读水平测试的理论构念。这四个层次是结构分析层、修辞分析层、社会关联层和整体评价层。根据该构念框架,本文进一步开发了一个批判阅读测试考点清单用以指导测试的项目编写,其主要组成部分包括分析段落、理解深层含义、评价论据和回应文本。
Critical reading is a high-level reading process which entails the ability to read with analysis and judgment. It analyzes not only what a text says but also how it says it. On the basis of reviewing the notions of critical reading and the descriptions of critical reading proficiency, this paper sets up a four-level hierarchical framework in order to provide the theoretical construct of critical reading testing. They are the levels of structural analysis, rhetoric analysis, social relevance, and holistic evaluation. A test focus inventory is accordingly developed to guide item writing, and the components include analyzing paragraph, discovering meaning, evaluating arguments, and responding to text.
