在自考的全部专业中，英语本科的淘汰率一直高居“榜首”，同时《英美文学选读》又是整个本科专业的瓶颈课程。

我们随机抽取了两刀（40本）试卷进行统计，发现该门课程的通过率大致在12%左右，可能是自考全部课程最低的。

绝大部分成绩徘徊在40分到58分之间，大约占了44.7%。

我们批改到的最高分大约是82分，成绩相当出色！一、试卷构成《英美文学选读》全国卷由四部分组成：第一部分是40分的选择题，每题1分，覆盖面十分广泛。

从以往几次试卷来看，该部分主要考核英美文学史，也包括少量选读中的内容，多属于常识性知识，例如今年14题要求辨别If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?的作者；2001年11题要求辨别It was a miracle of rare device, A sunny pleasure done with caves of ice.的作者和出处；还有每年必定会有一题考核作品中出现的人物，例如2001年第8题是Sheridan’s The School for Scandal中的人物，今年28题是The Scarlet Letter的人物。

由于内容大多属于大纲中的“识记”性知识，不需要多少理解，因此正确率相应比较高。

但有时题目的切入点十分灵活比如2001年第6题，需要考生有较好的基本功。

第二部分是四道共16分的阅读理解。

考题内容均取自选读部分，一般是两篇诗歌，两篇小说，要求指出：A）作者和作品出处（1分）B）作品中具体某个词或词组的确切意义（1分）C）表述该选段的思想内容（2分）。

考生需要认真研读作品，和作品后面的注释，平时做一些读书笔记。

第三部分是四道共24分的简答题，内容的跨越比较大，既有阅读理解部分的延伸，也有某一时期的文学思潮，还有对某一断代史的简论，答对率非常低。

第四部分是两题共20分的问答题。

一般是某个重要作家或作品的特色以及对他们的评价。

二、试卷评析文学术语（俗称的名词解释）是基本的文学常识，是对文学中共性问题的抽象概括，因此对于这些术语不可等闲视之。
