- Abstract
There are two response types, multiple-choice response and constructed response, in testing the communicative language ability. This paper discusses the differences between them, and investigates which type of response proves to be closer to the testees' actual language proficiency level in the listening comprehension test. The research data were collected through the listening comprehension test, and cloze test. The results indicated that constructed response type was more valid in testing the students' language proficiency level.
