Abstract

This paper takes the TEM4 writing parts from 2008 to 2017 as the research object, aiming at exploring the content validity of the writing parts in TEM4 in the past ten years. The study finds that the writing parts in TEM4 in the past ten years not only reflect the concept of the "Syllabus", but also coincide with the "Examination Outline". But the genre examined is too singular, and the form of information provision is basically the outline type. There is still much room for improvement in the content validity of the writing part. Based on this, this paper attempts to provide some suggestions for the TEM4 writing part thesis assignment and English professional writing teaching for reference by relevant personnel.
