It is really a surprise that after hundreds of years, educationists have still failed to design anything more efficient and reliable than examinations. It is claimed that examinations test what you know, but it is common knowledge that they more often do the exact opposite. They may be a good means of testing memory, or the skills of working rapidly under extreme pressure, but they can tell you nothing about a person’s true ability.
As anxiety makers, examinations are second to none. That is because so much depends on them. They are the mark of success or failure in our society. Your whole future may be decided in one fateful day. No one can show his best with worry, or after a sleepless night, yet this is precisely what the examination system expects him to do.
A good education should, among other things, train you to think for yourself. The examination system, however, does anything but that. What has to be learnt is laid down by a syllabus(教学大纲), so the student is encouraged to memorize it. Examinations do not motivate a student to read widely, and they do not enable him to seek more and more knowledge. Furthermore, teachers themselves are often judged by the results of their students’ examinations. Consequently, they have to train their students to master exam techniques which they dislike. The most successful candidates are not always the best educated but the best trained.
The results on which so much depends are often nothing more than a subjective assessment by some anonymous (匿名的) examiners. They certainly make mistakes, because they have to mark mountains of scripts(笔试答卷) in a limited amount of time. They work under the same sort of pressure as the candidates.
According to the author, the most important of a good education is to________.
选项
A、encourage students to read widely
B、teach students how to tackle exams
C、train students to think on their own
D、encourage students to seek more knowledge
答案
C
解析
根据第三段第一句“A good education should, among other things, train you to think for yourself. ”可知,除了其他方面,好的教育最应当具有的作用就是培养学生的独立思考能力,所以C项正确。on their own是文中for yourself的同义替换。B项是考试带来的后果;A、D两项只是培养学生独立思考能力的两种具体方法,这三项均不正确。故选C。
