对大学英语四级成绩的相关性分析作者：刘品品来源：《新生代·上半月》2018年第09期【摘要】：以2012年6月份天津工业大学的轻化专业和日语专业学生的大学英语四级作为统计数据源，运用了SPSS 软件为数据分析工具，从性别和专业对总成绩的影响，单项成绩与总成绩以及单项与单项成绩之间的相关性和线性回归深入分析得出科学结论，意在为大学英语教学提供数据支持，帮助教师结合实际改进教学方法。
【关键词】：英语四级总成绩单项成绩相关性线性回归一、数据分析在大学英语四级考试试题结构中，第一部分听力理解包括在大学英语四级考试试题结构中，第一部分听力理解包括听力对话和听力短文，分值占总分比例为 35%；第二部分阅读理解占总分的 35%，包括仔细阅读理解和快速阅读理解；第三部分为综合测试，占部分比例的15%，包括完型填空和翻译（注：该部分中的完型填空在 2013 年 12 月考试大纲中将被取消）；第四部分为写作，占总分的 15%。
收集有关2012年轻化专业和日语专业取得四级考试成绩的有效样本数为54。
本文以数据为分析对象，运用SPSS软件分别从性别、专业和四级总成绩是否存在显著差异，各单项与总成绩之间以及个单项成绩之间的相关性等方面进行分析。
（1）有无交互作用双因素组间方差分析结果显示，性别对四级总成绩的主效应不显著，专业对四级总成绩的主效应显著（F（1，50）=5.007， P=0.029>0.05； F（1，50）=164.968， P=0.00从图二可以看出，听力成绩与总成绩之间的相关系数达到0.794，说明听力理解成绩与总成绩有高度相关，表明听力理解得分高的同学，其总成绩也较高，听力成绩的高低对总成绩的影响最大。
其次阅读成绩与总成绩的相关系数为0.526，达到了中等相关，说明这项成绩对总成绩的影响也是非常大的。
写作与综合成绩对英语总成绩的影响较低，相关系数分别为-0.43 和-1.94。
另外我们还可以看出听力理解成绩和阅读理解成绩的相关系数为0.6，说明听力与阅读理解成绩在水平双尾相关上存在着十分显著的相关性。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choicesmarked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and markthe corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through thecenter.Passage OneQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.A is for always getting to work on time.B is for being extremely busy.C is for the conscientious (勤勤恳恳的) way you do your job.You may be all these things at the office, and more. But when it comes to getting ahead, experts say, the ABCs of business should include a P, for politics, as in office politics.Dale Carnegie suggested as much more than 50 years ago: Hard work alone doesn’t ensure career advancement. You have to be able to sell yourself and your ideas, both publicly and behind the scenes. Yet, despite the obvious rewards of engaging in office politics—a better job, a raise, praise—many people are still unable—or unwilling—to “play the game.”“People assume that office politics involves some manipulative (工于心计的) behavior,” says Deborah Comer, an assistant professor of management at Hofstra University. “But politics derives from the word ‘polite’. It can mean lobbying and forming associations. It can mean being kind and helpful, or even trying to please your superior, and then expecting something in return.”In fact, today, experts define office politics as proper behavior used to pursue one’s own self-interest in the workplace. In many cases, this involves some form Of Socializing within the office environment—not just in large companies, but in small workplaces as well.“The first thing people are usually judged on is their ability to perform well on a consistent basis,’” says Neil P Lewis, a management psychologist. “But if two or three candidates are up for a promotion, each of whom has reasonably similar ability, a manager is going to promote the person he or she likes best. It’s simple human nature.”Yet, psychologists say, many employees and employers have trouble with the concept of politics in the office. Some people, they say, have an idealistic vision of work and what it takes to succeed. Still others associate politics with flattery (奉承), fearful that, if they speak up for themselves, they may appear to be flattering their boss for favors.Experts suggest altering this negative picture by recognizing the need for some self-promotion.11.“Office politics” (Line 2, Para. 4) is used in the passage to refer to ________.A) the code of behavior for company staffB) the political views and beliefs of office workersC) the interpersonal relationships within a companyD) the various qualities required for a successful career12.To get promoted, one must not only be competent but ________.A) give his boss a good impressionB) honest and loyal to his companyC) get along well with his colleaguesD) avoid being too outstanding13.Why are many people unwilling to “play the game” (Line 4, Para. 5)?A) They believe that doing so is impractical.B) They feel that such behavior is unprincipled.C) They are not good at manipulating colleagues.D) They think the effort will get them nowhere.14.The author considers office politics to be ________.A) unwelcome at the workplaceB) bad for interpersonal relationshipsC) indispensable to the development of company cultureD) an important factor for personal advancement15.It is the author’s view that ________.A) speaking up for oneself is part of human natureB) self-promotion does not necessarily mean flatteryC) hard work contributes very little to one’s promotionD) many employees fail to recognize the need of flatteryPassage TwoQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.As soon as it was revealed that a reporter for Progressive magazine had discovered how to make a hydrogen bomb, a group of firearm (火器) fans formed the National Hydrogen Bomb Association, and they are now lobbying against any legislation to stop Americans from owning one.“The Constitution,” said the association’s spokesman, “gives everyone the right to own arms. It doesn’t spell out what kind of arms. But since anyone can now make a hydrogen bomb, the public should be able to buy it to protect themselves.”“Don’t you think it’s dangerous to have one in the house, particularly where there are children around?”“The National Hydrogen Bomb Association hopes to educate people in the safe handling of this type of weapon. We are instructing owners to keep the bomb in a locked cabinet and the fuse (导火索) separately in a drawer.”“Some people consider the hydrogen bomb a very fatal weapon which could kill somebody.”The spokesman said, “Hydrogen bombs don’t kill people—people kill people. The bomb is for self-protection and it also has a deterrent effect. If somebody knows you have a nuclear weapon in your house, they’re going to think twice about breaking in.”“But those who want to ban the bomb for American citizens claim that if you have one locked in the cabinet, with the fuse in a drawer, you would never be able to assemble it in time to stop an intruder (侵入者).”“Another argument against allowing people to own a bomb is that at the moment it is very expensive to build one. So what your association is backing is a program whichwould allow the middle and upper classes to acquire a bomb while poor people will be left defenseless with just handguns.”16.According to the passage, some people started a national association so as to________.A) block any legislation to ban the private possession of the bombB) coordinate the mass production of the destructive weaponC) instruct people how to keep the bomb safe at homeD) promote the large-scale sale of this newly invented weapon17.Some people oppose the ownership of H-bombs by individuals on the grounds that________.A) the size of the bomb makes it difficult to keep in a drawerB) most people don’t know how to handle the weaponC) people’s lives will be threatened by the weaponD) they may fall into the hands of criminals18.By saying that the bomb also has a deterrent effect the spokesman means that it________.A) will frighten away any possible intrudersB) can show the special status of its ownersC) will threaten the safety of the owners as wellD) can kill those entering others’ houses by force19.According to the passage, opponents of the private ownership of H-bombs are verymuch worried that ________.A) the influence of the association is too powerful for the less privileged toovercomeB) poorly-educated Americans will find it difficult to make use of the weaponC) the wide use of the weapon will push up living expenses tremendouslyD) the cost of the weapon will put citizens on an unequal basis20.From the tone of the passage we know that the author is ________.A) doubtful about the necessity of keeping H-bombs at home for safetyB) unhappy with those who vote against the ownership of H-bombsC) not serious about the private ownership of H-bombsD) concerned about the spread of nuclear weaponsPassage ThreeQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Sign has become a scientific hot button. Only in the past 20 years have specialists in language study realized that signed languages are unique—a speech of the hand. They offer a new way to probe how the brain generates and understands language, and throw new light on an old scientific controversy: whether language, complete with grammar, is something that we are born With, or whether it is a learned behavior. The current interest in sign language has roots in the pioneering work of one rebel teacher at Gallaudet University in Washington, D. C., the world’s only liberal arts university for deaf people.When Bill Stokoe went to Gallaudet to teach English, the school enrolled him in a course in signing. But Stokoe noticed something odd: among themselves, students signed differently from his classroom teacher.Stokoe had been taught a sort of gestural code, each movement of the hands representing a word in English. At the time, American Sign Language (ASL) was thought to be no more than a form of pidgin English (混杂英语). But Stokoe believed the “hand talk” his students used looked richer. He wondered: Might deaf people actually: have a genuine language? And could that language be unlike any other on Earth? It was 1955, when even deaf people dismissed their signing as “substandard”. Stokoe’s idea was academic heresy (异端邪说).It is 37 years later. Stokoe—now devoting his time to writing and editing books and journals and to producing video materials on ASL and the deaf culture—is having lunch at a cafe near the Gallaudet campus and explaining how he started a revolution. For decades educators fought his idea that signed languages are natural languages like English, French and Japanese. They assumed language must be based on speech, the modulation (调节) of sound. But sign language is based on the movement of hands, the modulation of space. “What I said,” Stokoe explains, “is that language is not mouth stuff —it’s brain stuff.”21.The study of sign language is thought to be ________.A) a new way to look at the learning of languageB) a challenge to traditional, views on the nature of languageC) an approach: to simplifying the grammatical structure of a languageD) an attempt to clarify misunderstanding about the origin of language22.The, present growing interest in sign language was stimulated by ________.A) a famous scholar in the study of the human brainB) a leading specialist in the study of liberal artsC) an English teacher in a university for the deafD) some senior experts in American Sign Language23.According to Stokoe, sign language is ________.A) a Substandard languageB) a genuine languageC) an artificial languageD) an international language24.Most educators objected to Stokoe’s idea because they thought ________.A) sign language was not extensively used even by deaf peopleB) sign language was too artificial to be widely acceptedC) a language should be easy to use and understandD) a language could only exist in the form of speech sounds25.Stokoe’s argument is based on his belief that ________.A) sign language is as efficient as any other languageB) sign language is derived from natural languageC) language is a system of meaningful codesD) language is a product of the brainPassage FourQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.It came as something of a surprise when Diana, Princess of Wales, made a trip to Angola in 1997, to support the Red Cross’s campaign for a total ban on all anti-personnel landmines. Within hours of arriving in Angola, television screens around the World were filled with images of her comforting victims injured in explosions caused by landmines. “I knew the statistics,” she said. “But putting a face to those figures brought the reality home to me; like When I met Sandra, a 13-year-old girl who had lost her leg, and people like her.”The Princess concluded, with a simple message: “We must stop landmines”. And she used every opportunity during her visit to repeat this message.But, back in London, her views were not shared by some members of the British government, which refused to support a ban on these weapons. Angry politicians launched an, attack on the Princess in the press. They described her as “very ill-informed” and a “loose cannon (乱放炮的人).”The Princess responded by brushing aside the criticisms: “This is a distraction (干扰) we do not need. All I’m trying to do is help.”Opposition parties, the media and the Public immediately voiced their support for the Princess. To make matters worse for the government, it soon emerged that the Princess’s trip had been approved by the Foreign Office, and that she was in fact very well-informed about both the situation in Angola and the British government’s policy regarding landmines. The result was a severe embarrassment for the government.To try and limit the damage, the Foreign Secretary, Malcolm Rifkind, claimed that the Princess’s views on landmines were not very different from government policy, andthat it was “working towards” a worldwide ban. The Defense Secretary, Michael Portillo, claimed the matter was “a misinterpretation or misunderstanding.”For the Princess, the trip to this war-torn country was an excellent opportunity to use her popularity to show the world how much destruction and suffering landmines can cause. She said that the experience had also given her the Chance to get closer to people and their problems.26.Princess Diana paid a visit to Angola in 1997 ________.A) to voice her support for a total ban of landminesB) to clarify the British government’s stand on landminesC) to investigate the sufferings of landmine victims thereD) to establish her image as a friend of landmine victims27.What did Diana mean when she said “... putting a face to those figures brought thereality home to me” (Line 5, Para. 1)?A) She just couldn’t bear to meet the landmine victims face to face.B) The actual situation in Angola made her feel like going back home.C) Meeting the landmine victims in person made her believe the statistics.D) Seeing the pain of the victims made her realize the seriousness of the situation.28.Some members of the British government criticized Diana because ________.A) she was ill-informed of the government’s policyB) they were actually opposed to banning landminesC) she had not consulted the government before the visitD) they believed that she had misinterpreted the situation in Angola29.How did Diana respond to the criticisms?A) She paid no attention to them.B) She made more appearances on TV.C) She met the 13-year-old girl as planned.D) She rose to argue with her opponents.30.What did Princess Diana think of her visit to Angola?A) It had caused embarrassment to the British government.B) It had brought her closer to the ordinary people.C) It had greatly promoted her popularity.D) It had affected her relations with the British government.Part III Vocabulary and Structure (20 minutes)Directions:There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

应用概率统计课程设计大学生英语四级成绩影响因素的统计分析大学生英语四级成绩影响因素的统计分析摘要：大学生作为国家的生力军，英语能力的提高就尤为重要。
英语四级成绩是检验大学生英语掌握水平的重要标准，但目前四级通过率并不十分乐观，本文对大学生英语四级成绩影响因素进行统计分析。
本文在对相关文献研究的基础上，于2013年7月通过直接调查、网络调查等形式对全国大学生的英语四级成绩及其相关因素进行了抽样调查，并根据调查取得的数据运用了描述统计分析、统计绘图、均值比较、方差分析、相关分析等方法对影响英语四级成绩的因素进行了研究，发现：性别、英语基础、英语学习态度、英语学习方法的不同对英语四级成绩存在显著影响。
最后，根据上述数据分析结果，对改善大学生四级成绩状况提出了意见和建议。
关键词：英语四级统计方差分析卡方检验spss一引言1.1背景介绍改革开放以来，随着社会经济的发展，我国与世界各国的经济文化交流越来越多，各种语言教育应运而生。
英语作为一门世界通用语言，受到了社会上的广泛关注和重视。
大学生作为国家的生力军，英语能力的提高就尤为重要。
为此，教育部主管组织举办了全国大学英语等级考试。
全国大学英语等级考试（以下简称“四六级考试”）是教育部主管的一项全国性的教学考试，其目的是对大学生的英语能力进行客观、准确的测量，推动大学英语教学大纲的贯彻执行，为提高我国大学英语课程的教学质量服务。
四六级考试不但信度高，而且效度高，每次考试后所公布的成绩含有大量信息，成为各级教育行政部门进行决策的动态依据，也为各校根据本校实际情况采取措施提高教学质量提供了反馈信息。
但是，大学生英语四六级考试成绩受到多种因素的影响，这一现象又不断制约了英语教学质量的提高，通过对大学生英语四六级成绩影响因素的分析将有利于解决大学生英语学习中存在的问题、英语教学质量、提高大学生的综合素质。
1.2问题的提出自全国大学生英语等级考试诞生以来，围绕英语四、六级考试通过率的研究就没有中断过，例如学校之间考试成绩、四六级通过率的比较；非智力因素对英语成绩的影响；英语考试中听力、阅读、写作、完形填空及翻译等五部分成绩对英语整体成绩的影响；英语单词量、写作、口语、语法水平对英语成绩的影响等。

You should decide on the best choiceand mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single linethrough the center.Passage OneQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.A is for always getting to work on time.B is for being extremely busy.C is for the conscientious (勤勤恳恳的 ) way you do your job.You may be all these things at the office, and more. But when it comes to getting ahead, experts say, the ABCs of business should include a P, for politics, as in office politics.Dale Carnegie suggested as much more than 50 years ago: Hard work alone doesn?t ensure career advancement. You have to be able to sell yourself and your ideas, both publicly and behind the scenes.Yet, despite the obvious rewards of engaging in office politics — a better job, a raise, praise— many people are still unable—or unwilling —to“ play the game. ”“People assume that office politics involves some manipulative (工于心计的) behavior,”says Deborah Comer, an assistant professor of management at Hofstra University. “ Butpoliti cs derives from the word ,polite?. It can mean lobbying andforming associations. It can mean being kind and helpful, or even trying to please your superior, and then expecting something in return.”In fact, today, experts define office politics as proper behavior used to pursue one?s own self-interest in the workplace. In many cases, this involves some form Of Socializing within the office environment—not just in large companies, but in small workplaces as well.“ The firstthing people are usually judged on is their ability to perform well on a consistent basis,?” says NeilP Lewis, a management psychologist. “twoButor ifthree candidates are up for a promotion, each of whom has reasonably similar ability, a manager is going to promote the person he or she likes best.?sIt simple human nature.”Yet, psychologists say, many employees and employers have trouble with the concept of politics in the office. Some people, they say, have an idealistic vision of work and what it takes to succeed. Still others associate politics with flattery (奉承), fearful that, if they speak up for themselves, they may appear to be flattering their bossfor favors.Experts suggest altering this negative picture by recognizing the need for some self-promotion.11.“ Office politics” (Line 2, Para. 4) is used in the passage to refer to.A)the code of behavior for company staffB)the political views and beliefs of office workersC)the interpersonal relationships within a companyD)the various qualities required for a successful career12.To get promoted, one must not only be competent but ________.A)give his boss a good impressionB)honest and loyal to his companyC)get along well with his colleaguesD)avoid being too outstanding13. Why are many people unwilling to“ play the game” (Line 4, Para. 5)?A)They believe that doing so is impractical.B)They feel that such behavior is unprincipled.C)They are not good at manipulating colleagues.D)They think the effort will get them nowhere.14.The author considers office politics to be ________.A)unwelcome at the workplaceB)bad for interpersonal relationshipsC)indispensable to the development of company cultureD)an important factor for personal advancement15.It is the author?s view that ________.A)speaking up for oneself is part of human natureB)self-promotion does not necessarily mean flatteryC)hard work contributes very little to one?s promotionD)many employees fail to recognize the need of flatteryPassage TwoQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.As soon as it was revealed that a reporter for Progressive magazine haddiscovered how to make a hydrogen bomb, a group of firearm (火器 ) fans formed the National Hydrogen Bomb Association, and they are now lobbying against any legislationto stop Americans from owning one.“The Constitution, ”said the association?s spokesman,“gives everyone theright to own arms. It doesn?t spell out what kind of arms. But since anyone can nowmake a hydrogen bomb, the public should be able to buy it to protect themselves”.“ Don?t you think it ?s dangerous to have one in the house, particularly wherethere are children around? ”“ TheNational Hydrogen Bomb Association hopes to educate people in the safe handling of this type of weapon. We are instructing owners to keep the bomb in alocked cabinet and thefuse (导火索 ) separately in a drawer”.“ Somepeople consider the hydrogen bomb a very fatal weapon which could kill somebody. ”The spokesman said, “ Hydrogen bombst don?killpeople —people kill people. Thebomb is for self-protection and it also has a deterrent effect. If somebody knows you havea nuclear weapon in your house, they?re going to think twice about breaking in.”“ But those who want to ban the bomb for American citizens claim that if you haveone locked in the cabinet, with the fuse in a drawer, you would never be able toassemble it in time to stop an intruder (侵入者 ).”“ Another argument against allowing people to own a bomb is that at the moment itis very expensive to build one.

Only in the past 20 years have specialists in language study realized that signed languages are unique— a speech of the hand. Theyoffer a new way to probe how the brain generates and understands language, and thrownew light on an old scientific controversy: whether language, complete with grammar, is something that we are born With, or whether it is a learned behavior. The current interest in sign language has roots in the pioneering work of one rebel teacher at Gallaudet Universityin Washington, D. C., the world?s only liberal arts university for deaf people.When Bill Stokoe went to Gallaudet to teach English, the school enrolled him in a course in signing. But Stokoe noticed something odd: among themselves, studentssigned differently from his classroom teacher.Stokoe had been taught a sort of gestural code, each movement of the hands representing a word in English. At the time, American Sign Language (ASL) wasthought to be no more than a form of pidgin English (混杂英语 ). But Stokoe believedthe “hand talk”his students used looked richer. He wondered: Might deaf people actually: have a genuine language? And could that language be unlike any other on Earth? It was 1955, when even deaf people dismissed their signing as “substandard”. Stokoe?s idea was academicheresy (异端邪说 ).It is 37 years later. Stokoe—now devoting his time to writing and editing books and journals and to producing video materials on ASL and the deaf culture—is having lunchat a cafe near the Gallaudet campus and explaining how he started a revolution. For decades educators fought his idea that signed languages are natural languages like English, French and Japanese.They assumed language must be based on speech, the modulation (调节 ) of sound. But sign language is based on the movement of hands, the modulation of space.“ What IStokoesaid, explains,”“ is that language is not mouth stuff— it?s brain stuff.”21.The study of sign language is thought to be ________.A)a new way to look at the learning of languageB)a challenge to traditional, views on the nature of languageC)an approach: to simplifying the grammatical structure of a languageD)an attempt to clarify misunderstanding about the origin of language22.The, present growing interest in sign language was stimulated by ________.A)a famous scholar in the study of the human brainB)a leading specialist in the study of liberal artsC)an English teacher in a university for the deafD)some senior experts in American Sign Language23.According to Stokoe, sign language is ________.A)a Substandard languageB)a genuine languageC)an artificial languageD)an international language24.Most educators objected to Stokoe?s idea because they thought ________.A)sign language was not extensively used even by deaf peopleB)sign language was too artificial to be widely acceptedC)a language should be easy to use and understandD)a language could only exist in the form of speech sounds25.Stokoe?s argument is based on his belief that ________.A)sign language is as efficient as any other languageB)sign language is derived from natural languageC)language is a system of meaningful codesD)language is a product of the brainPassage FourQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.It came as something of a surprise when Diana, Princess of Wales, made a trip to Angola in 1997, to support the Red Cross?s campaign for a total ban on all anti-personnel landmines. Within hours of arriving in Angola, television screens around the World were filled with images of her comforting victims injured in explosions caused by landmines.“ I knew the statistics,”“sheButsaidputting. a face to those figures brought the realityhome to me; like When I met Sandra, a 13-year-old girl who had lost her leg, and people like her. ”The Princess concluded, with a simple message: “ Wemust stop landmines ”And. she used every opportunity during her visit to repeat this message.But, back in London, her views were not shared by some members of the British government, which refused to support a ban on these weapons. Angry politicians launched an, attack on the Princess in the press. They described her “asvery ill-informed ” and a“loose cannon (乱放炮的人 ).”The Princess responded by brushing aside the criticisms:“This is a distraction (干扰 ) we do not need. All I?m trying to do is help.”Opposition parties, the media and the Public immediately voiced their support for the Princess. To make matters worse for the government, it soon emerged that the Princess?s trip had been approved by the Foreign Office, and that she was in fact very well-informed about both the situation in Angola and the British government?s policy regarding landmines. The result was a severe embarrassment for the government.To try and limit the damage, the Foreign Secretary, Malcolm Rifkind, claimed that the Princess?s views on landmines were not very different from government policy, and2004 年 6 月 19 日大学英语四级(CET-4)真题试卷9/21that it was“ workingtowards” a worldwide ban. The Defense Secretary, Michael Portillo, claimed the matter was “a misinterpretation or misunderstanding.”For the Princess, the trip to this war-torn country was an excellent opportunity to use her popularity to show the world how much destruction and suffering landmines can cause.
