根据国家*考试中心的设计，PETS考试将逐步取代现有的各种考试，包括高考中的英语考试及研究生入学英语考试。目前，全国英语等级考试的第二级考试成绩可以取代全国自学考试非英语专业专科的英语成绩；第三级考试成绩可以取代全国自学考试非英语专业本科的英语成绩；第五级考试成绩可以取代原有的公派出国留学人员英语水平考试（WSK·EPT）。
与此同时，一些国家机构、事业单位和三资企业已开始使用PETS的考核成绩作为对干部考评、员工录用的英语水平鉴定标准；中国人民解放军在全军推行该考试；中国银行、航空航天系统等部门已与考试中心接触，将在其系统内使用该项考试成绩。
与其他英语考试相比，PETS具有统一的系统评价标准，在考试成果的使用上也有统一的对照和准确的引用标准，更重视听力和口语的考核。命题的各项设置非常细致和明确，结构的整体和局部均理念独到、架构缜密，在级别的划分和难度的设置上也考虑周全，使其尽可能地趋于规范、合理和实用。
更值得赞赏的是，PETS面向全国的任何一个英语学习者，是一个全国性的非学历性外语考试平台。无论任何职业、年龄和学历，都可以参与到这项考试中来。考试的宽广程度可以满足学习者和用人单位的需求，为对外交流和经济建设提供了一个稳固的桥梁。
PETS完善各种考核手段，尤其重视听力和口语的考查，使学习者的学习和考试成果可以在实践中得到完整的应用。“考试为了学习，学习为了应用”也同样是PETS考试的宗旨和目的。
本套教材编委会经过长期的策划，组织了我国著名大学的专家、教授，联合编写了PETS 一级B至五级的全套学习教材，希望读者通过这套教材的学习，能圆满地完成PETS的各项考核，提高英语水平，对自身的发展有所裨益，更好地为社会做出贡献。
我们相信，在21世纪这个知识经济和快速发展的国际交流的新时代，在*考试中心的精心组织和领导下，在全国各有关专家、学者的大力配合下，全国英语等级考试一定会在各个领域的发展中发挥其重要的作用，为国家的经济建设和对外交流做出更多的贡献。

Housing
Mrs. Green lived in a small flat(公寓). She was old and did not like any noise at all. If there was a noise, she could not sleep. Above her flat, there lived a young couple. They always quarreled(争吵) with each other until midnight, so Mrs. Green could not have a sound(香甜的) sleep. So when the couple moved out, Mrs. Green was very happy. As a new young lady moved in, Mrs. Green thought, “Yes, she looks very quiet.”
But at four o’clock in the next morning, Mrs. Green was woken up by the barking(犬吠声) of a dog.
“Nobody here keeps a pet,” thought Mrs. Green, “The dog must belong to the young lady in the flat above.” So she telephoned the young lady, and said some unpleasant(不客气的) words to her about the dog. And then, without waiting for her to say anything, she hung up the telephone and went to sleep again.
The next morning at three o’clock the dog was barking again. Just then, Mrs. Green’s phone rang. She answered it, and a voice said, “I’m calling to tell you that I don’t have a dog.”Dialogue 1
Helen and Victor are working in their house.Helen：Oh, what a lovely house! I can’t believe it!
Victor： Yes, we got our own house at last. Well, where are we going to put the bed?
Helen： I think the bed should be put on the left. The best place for the table is here, beside the window.
Victor： Good suggestions! Wouldn’t it be a good idea to place the sofa here, right in the middle?
Helen： No, it’ll look too crowded. It will be much better if we put the sofa in the living room.
Victor： OK. If the sofa is here, the TV will be there.
Helen：That’s right.Dialogue 2
Kevin is talking with Bill.Kevin：Do you often watch TV with your parents?

Kevin：Really? It sounds nice.
Bill：Yes. When I was a child, they often took me to watch tennis match. I love tennis.
Kevin：How interesting! Dialogue 3

Paul：I’m a nurse. I work at No.1 Hospital.
Jane：Oh, tell me how you share the housework.
Paul：Well, we had an agreement about housework in the morning, Mary does the breakfast. Then she takes our son to school on her way to work.
