More and more big corporations enter into China. The Ministry of Education has reformed CET, which is vital to college students, in December, 2013, in order to make the students better adapt to the increasingly internationalization. This paper analyzes from three aspects: the feature of CET under the reform, the reform's influence on university English teaching and the reform's enlightenment on college teaching, to improve the healthy development of university English teaching. CET is a unified national examination for college students. It is published by the Ministry of Education and carried out since 1987. It is an authoritative test, which plays an important role in the teaching task of domestic universities. There is no doubt that CET is a vital test which concerned students' reward and employment. However, with the development of China's economy and society, some aspects of CET can not meet the needs of the development, such as the form, content and structure.
