　　he 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.

　　论考试的必要性

　　在我们的社会中，对于考试公众一直都有激烈的讨论。认为考试有必要的人也许有如下一些论据。首先，考试有助于帮助区别表现好的学生与表现差的学生。 此外，考试也能刺激学生努力学习。就拿为例来说，他是一名河北师范大学的学生，过去他的英语水平很差。 然而，在英语4级考试的压力下，他取得了伟大的进步，现在他的英语已很流利了。

　　相反，某些民认为考试也许会有一系列的消极作用。他们认为考试并不一定能够如实反映一个人的学习情况。他们认为好多学生也许会被误导，从而忽视实用能力的提高。各种媒体经常有“高分低能”的例子报导。

　　事情都是一分为二的，考试也不例外。 学生应该对考试持正确的态度，摆正考试和实际能力两者之间的关系。
