Abstract

This report is based on the various questions about several English passages which the sophomore students at the UEC asked me during English Seminar in 2001. In this class, reading texts were taken from the Tests of Practical English for the Pre-1st and 2nd Grades that had been administered by the Society for Testing English Proficiency(STEP). Although the STEP Test for the 2nd Grade is designed for those who have graduated from senior high schools, the result of the twelve reading comprehension tests at my seminar reveals that our students had trouble understanding English sentences which are made mainly of basic words and structures, whether the sentences are long or not. The report examines the parts that are considered difficult by those students and suggests that the level of the STEP Test for the 2nd Grade is appropriate for the first and second year students at the UEC in order to familiarize them with basic English structures.
