The Necessity of Examination

　　The Necessity of Examination

　　As regards examination, there has been a heated discussion among the general public in our society.People who believe in its necessity may have some arguments as follows. To begin with, examination helps to tell the better-behaved from the worse-behaved students. What s more, examination may stimulate the students to work harder. Take Xiao Wang as an example, a student from Hebei Normal University, he used to have poor command of English. However, under the pressure of College English Test Band 4, he made great progress and can now speak fluent English.

　　By contrast, some people think that examination may give rise to a series of negative effects. They maintain that examination can not always faithfully reflect one s study performance. It is believed that too many students may be misled and neglect the improvement of practical ability. Examples of High marks but poor competence are often cited on different media.

　　Just as any coin has two sides, it s no exception with the issue of examination. Students should develop a right attitude toward it and strike a balance between examination and practical ability achievement.

　　論考試的必要性

　　在我們的社會中，對于考試公眾一直都有激烈的討論。認為考試有必要的人也許有如下一些論據(jù)。首先，考試有助于幫助區(qū)別表現(xiàn)好的學生與表現(xiàn)差的學生。 此外，考試也能刺激學生努力學習。就拿為例來說，他是一名河北師范大學的學生，過去他的英語水平很差。 然而，在英語4級考試的壓力下，他取得了偉大的進步，現(xiàn)在他的英語已很流利了。

　　相反，某些民認為考試也許會有一系列的消極作用。他們認為考試并不一定能夠如實反映一個人的學習情況。他們認為好多學生也許會被誤導，從而忽視實用能力的提高。各種媒體經常有 高分低能 的例子報導。

　　事情都是一分為二的，考試也不例外。 學生應該對考試持正確的態(tài)度，擺正考試和實際能力兩者之間的關系。
