Have you ever felt that you were just studying to pass a test? Today many 36 and companies around the world use standardized tests such as TOEFL to 37 students’ abilities. Thousands of people every year take these kinds of tests in order to enter or graduate from a school, or get a better job.
In many educational systems throughout the world, students take regular multiple-choice (多项选择的) achievement tests. They have to 38 these tests in order to move to a higher level, or graduate from an educational institution. Many supporters of this type of traditional evaluation believe that students learn best, and 39 their knowledge, by memorizing facts, and information.
Many 40 of this way of learning also believe that teaching students to pass a test means teaching them to do lots of exercises.
Educational reformers, however, believe that standardized tests are 41 and can only measure some of a student’s ability. They suggest that many students, though intelligent, are not 42 good at taking tests, or at memorization. This makes it harder for them to achieve passing grades, get into good schools, or get the right jobs. In addition factors such as how a person feels on the day of a test can also 43 his or her score. Using only a multiple-choice style of test to evaluate students’ abilities cannot always tell us 44 they have learned, or how they may do in the future.
To use standardized tests or not to --- the debate 45 . Meanwhile, many students’ futures are still decided based on their test results.
