There are 100 of the total listening items in progress test 3 that are intended to find out particular information in the simple spoken text. In the listening test of Progress tests three objectives were not tested. They are to interpret the meaning of a statement, to give response to the expression of the 33 spoken question or statement , and to predict the further story of the spoken text. According to Hughes 1989: 23, the more likely it is to be inaccurate measure of what is supposed to be measured. Therefore in the future, the test writer should concern about the absence of those objectives to build with good content validity.
