学习啦在线学习网 In ancient times the most important examinations were spoken, not written. In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome, testing usually consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches.
In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study with people who had made a special study of the subjects. This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates for the doctor’s degree. __________________________________________________________________________________
学习啦在线学习网 One type of test is sometimes called an “objective” test. It is intended to deal with facts, not personal opinions. To make up an objective test the teacher writes a series of questions, each of which has only one correct answer. Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like answers to students who have not learned the material properly.

学习啦在线学习网 Generally, however, modern examinations are written. The written examination, where all students are tested on the same questions, was probably not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and t he development of modern industry. A room full of candidates for a state examination, timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by managers, resembles a group of workers at an automobile factory. Certainly, during examinations teachers and students are expected to act like machines.

第1题
How does television affect our lives? It can be very helpful to people who
学习啦在线学习网 carefully choose the shows that they watch. Television can increase our knowledge of the outside world. There are high?quality programs that help us understand many fields of study: science, medicine, the arts, and so on. Moreover, television benefits very old people who can’t often leave the house, as well as patients in the hospitals.
学习啦在线学习网 On the other hand, there are several serious disadvantages to television. Many children stare at a TV screen for more hours each day than they do anything else, including studying and sleeping. An effect of television on the human brain is that it seems to cause poor concentration. Children who view a lot of TV can often concentrate on a subject for only fifteen to twenty
minutes. They can pay attention only for the amount of time between commercials.
学习啦在线学习网 Another disadvantage is that TV often causes people to become dissatisfied with their own lives. Real life does not seem as exciting to those people as the lives of actors on the screen. To some people, TV becomes more real than reality, and their own lives seem boring. The most negative effect of television might be people’s addiction to it. People often feel a strange and powerful need to watch TV even when they don’t enjoy it. Addition to TV screen is similar to drug or alcohol addiction. People almost never believe they are addicted.
Like everything else in the world, television has both advantages and disadvantages. And if you find yourself addicted, the only “cure” is to throw away the set and cut the cord.
