Unit 1 Part Ⅳ Section C 第三组;Paragraph 1 A good education should，among other things,train you to think for yourself.The examination system does anything but that. 一个好的教育应该，除了其他事情以外，还要训练你独立思考。考试制度能做任何事但除了这个。 What has to be leant is rigidly laid down by a syllabus,so the student is encouraged to memorize. 需要学习的东西被教学大纲牢牢地制定出来，导致学生被迫去记忆。 ;Examinations do not motivate a student to read widely,but to restrict his reading;they do not enable him to seek more and more kownledge,but induce cramming. 考试并没有刺激一名学生去广泛地阅读，而是限制了他的阅读；考试不能够使他去探索更多的知识，反而诱导他去死记硬背。 They lower the standards of teaching,for they deprive the teacher of all freedom. 他们（考试机制）降低了教学标准，原因是他们剥夺了教师的全部自由。 ;Teachers themselves are often jugded by examination results and instead of teaching their subjects;they are reduced to training their students in exam techniques which they despise. 教师们自己的水平也通常由考试（学生的）成绩来决定，因此他们没有传授他们（所属领域）的知识，取而代之的是教给学生们他们(教师们)轻视的考试技巧。 The most succeessful candidates are not always the best educated;they are the trained in the technique of working under duress（强迫）. 最成功的考生往往不是受教育最好的人，他们只不过是在应付学习压力的技巧方面最训练有素罢了。;Paragraph 2 The results on which so much depends are often nothing more than a subjective assessment by some anonymous examiners. 这些考试成绩所依赖的只不过是某个匿名主考者的主观评价。 Examiners are only human.They get tired and hungry;they make mistakes.Yet they have to mark stacks of hastily scrawled scripts in a limited amount of time. 主考官也是人。他们会疲倦和饥饿；他们也会犯错。并且他们必须在限定的时间内去评改大量的粗糙潦草的笔迹。 ;They work under the same sort of pressure as the candidates.And their word carries weight.After a judges decision you have a right of appeal,but not after an examiners. 他们在与考生们相同的压力下工作。并??他们的话很有分量。评判员的裁决，你有权上诉，但主考官的裁决一笔定终身。 There must surely be many simpler and more effective ways of assessing a persons true abilities. 肯定有许多更简单和更有效的方法去评估一个人的真实能力。;Is it cynical to suggest that examinations are merely a profitable business for the institutions that run them?This is what it boils down
