在过去的30年里，词汇研究取得了长足的进步。然而，在开发新的词汇测试方面进展相对较小。这可能在某种程度上是由于诸如词汇水平测试（Nation，1983;施密特等人，2001）和Word Associates Test（Read，1993，1998）。在这份报告中，提出了一个论点，有必要开发新的词汇测试。将讨论开发新测试的理由，并简要介绍处于不同开发阶段的四种新测试。前两个扩展了词汇水平测试的贡献。一个是新版本的词汇水平测试，另一个是测量Coxhead（2000）学术词汇表的不同子表的知识。后两项测试测量的是词汇知识的不同方面，即词汇学习能力。根据上下文猜词测试旨在测量在上下文中猜词的能力，单词部分水平测试测量词缀知识。
There have been great strides made in research on vocabulary in the last 30 years. However, there has been relatively little progress in the development of new vocabulary tests. This may be due in some degree to the impressive contributions made by tests such as the Vocabulary Levels Test (Nation, 1983; Schmitt et al., 2001) and the Word Associates Test (Read, 1993, 1998). In this report, an argument is made that there is a need for the development of new vocabulary tests. The justification for the development of new tests will be discussed and four new tests that are in different stages of development will be briefly introduced. The first two expand on the contributions of the Vocabulary Levels Test. One is a new version of the Vocabulary Levels Test and the other measures knowledge of the different sublists of Coxhead’s (2000) Academic Word List. The second two tests measure a different aspect of vocabulary knowledge, vocabulary learning proficiency. The Guessing from Context Test was designed to measure the ability to guess words in context and the Word Part Levels Test measures knowledge of affixes.
