| Abstract: | Abstract This study explores the problems of English language test takers while dealing with the reading materials of major international English language assessments. The primary focus is to scrutinize cultural biases ingrained in the reading materials of widely-used language examinations like IELTS or TOEFL, shedding light on the challenges these biases pose for test takers who must swiftly comprehend cultural content, often with limited prior knowledge. The research is divided into two main sections. The initial part explores the significance of high-stakes assessments, exemplified by IELTS or TOEFL, in determining global English proficiency. The subsequent section critically assesses the adverse aspects of linguistic dominance apparent in high-stakes testing materials, elucidating the commercialization of English language education and its impact on social class divisions. The paper further examines pricing strategies, cultural hegemony, and the control exerted by central nations over these assessments. The study meticulously evaluates the social, economic, and psychological burdens disadvantaged test takers face, with a central focus on proposing alternative international reading materials for widely recognized language examinations like IELTS and TOEFL. |
