505 | _a''Testing language for specific purposes (LSP) refers to that branch of language testing in which the test content and test methods are derived from an analysis of a specific language use situation, such as Spanish for business, Japanese for tour guides, Italian for language teachers, or English for air traffic control. LSP tests are usually contrasted with general purpose language tests, in which purpose is more broadly defined, as in the Test of English as a Foreign Language. | ||
505 | _aThis book is the first to examine the issues surrounding the implementation of tests for specific purposes. It will be a welcome addition to any language teaching professional's library. | ||

_aIt includes: _tan in-depth discussion of the issues; _tan examination of the current exams; _ta comprehensive overview of the literature." (Book Cover) |
