　　考研英語(yǔ)作文范文

　　Testing students by examinations has long been regarded as a reliable way to assess students’ competence. But disproportionate emphasis on examinations has brought about terrible results. As is depicted in the picture, a schoolboy, frightened to death by examinations, huddles himself up under a desk, refusing to go to school. His parents are trying to comfort him, saying “Come out, there are no examinations today.”

　　This drawing implies the harmful effect of examinations on children’s psyche. On the one hand, teachers tend to make use of different kinds of testing to force students to work hard at school. On the other hand, most parents think that school records are the sole criterion for judging the quality of a child’s work. It often happens that a child is punished heavily by his parents just because he does not do well in one examination or another. Therefore, pupils are extremely afraid of taking examinations.

　　As far as I’m concerned, examinations are an effective form of assessment if properly used. But teachers and parents should encourage pupils to concentrate on what they do well at school. And schools have an important duty to try to fit a child’s interest to his possible future career. On no account should they reckon examination as the only means of stimulating pupils to pursue knowledge. (218 words)

　　譯文：

　　通過(guò)考試來(lái)測(cè)試學(xué)生長(zhǎng)期以來(lái)被認(rèn)為是評(píng)估學(xué)生能力的可靠方法?？墒遣磺‘?dāng)?shù)膹?qiáng)調(diào)考試已經(jīng)產(chǎn)生了可怕的后果。正如這幅畫(huà)所描繪的，一個(gè)學(xué)童由于極度害怕考試躲在書(shū)桌底下縮成一團(tuán)，不肯去上學(xué)。他的父母親正在努力安慰他，告訴他說(shuō)，“孩子，出來(lái)吧，今天沒(méi)有考試?！?/p>

　　這幅畫(huà)暗示了考試對(duì)兒童心靈的有害影響。一方面，老師們往往利用各種測(cè)試來(lái)迫使學(xué)在校努力學(xué)習(xí)。另一方面，許多家長(zhǎng)認(rèn)為學(xué)習(xí)成績(jī)是評(píng)判孩子學(xué)習(xí)質(zhì)量的惟一標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。常常發(fā)生這樣的事：兒童由于在某次考試中沒(méi)考好而受到家長(zhǎng)的嚴(yán)厲懲罰。因此，學(xué)生十分害怕考試。

　　至于我，我認(rèn)為，考試如果使用得當(dāng)，是一種有效的評(píng)估形式?？墒墙處熀图议L(zhǎng)有義務(wù)鼓勵(lì)學(xué)生把精力集中在學(xué)校里學(xué)習(xí)得好的功課上。學(xué)校的一項(xiàng)重要職責(zé)是力圖使學(xué)生的興趣適合于他將來(lái)可能的工作。他們無(wú)論如何也不能把考試認(rèn)為是激勵(lì)學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)知識(shí)的惟一手段。
