In spite of importance of listening test to its education, the test is not working well. The test is inclinable to comprehension of linguistic ability. It can`t evaluate the listening ability well. And it make difficult to make difference Korean listening tests as a native language and as a foreign language. In this paper, I suggest that the listening ability are composed of linguistic ability that is about linguistic comprehension, relationship ability that is about forming, maintain and development of relationship among participants and monitoring ability that is about critical analysis of listening behaviors. A listening tests as a native language should evaluate those abilities. I point out some faults of listening test in Korean SAT which focus on linguistic comprehension. I suggest contents of relationship ability as below; sympathetic listening(including passive grant and active grant), conversational listening(including acceptive response and retort), cooperative listening and leading listening, listening of blame and listening attitude and posture. I argue that why each content should be a goal of listening test. I classify monitoring ability two abilities; monitoring linguistic ability and monitoring relationship ability.
