小站前言：近期雅思官方出了新款的雅思成绩单，其中有一项叫“CEFR”的分数，相信很多考生也看到了，那么这是什么分数?这玩意儿对签证有影响吗?今天小站老师就来分析一下这个是什么。
CEFR，全称是CommonEuropean Framework of Reference. CEFR的打分方式有A1, A 2, B1, B2, C1, C2. CEFR和IELTS的关联详见下图：
可以说，这只是不同英语考试的一个成绩关联而已。就好比，IELTS和CAE的成绩没法转换，那么大家都同时转换到CEFR，英语程度也就清晰不少了。
Q: Has the IELTS test changed?
A: No, the test has not been changed.
Q: Has IELTS been made more difficult?
A: No, the test has not changed. The way it is examined and the way band scores are awarded remain the same.
注解: 雅思考试的内容和评分标准并没有因为CEFR Level而改变。所以大家完全不用担心，只需正常的备考即可。
Q: Why is IELTS changing the way the band scores relate to the CEFR?
A: We have always been committed to providing ongoing revision as we grow in our understanding of the relationship between IETLS, other examinations and the CEFR levels.
注解：由此可见，CEFR level 只是不同考试之间的一种转换中介。对于烤鸭们本身的备考并没有任何的影响。
Q: Should institutions and organisations which use IELTS scores change the band scores they expect students to achieve as a result of the revised CEFR mapping?
A: The test has not changed and the performance represented by each band score remains the same. There is no need for institutions to make changes where they have previously been satisfied with their particular score requirements.
Q: Should institutions and organisations that offer English courses to prepare students for university study, or to facilitate university study, change the format,content or level of their courses?
A: No. Nothing within the test content has changed.
小站后评：由此看来，官方都说，雅思成绩并不会有任何的变化，无论是入学，还是签证，都还是以单项成绩和总成绩为主。
