Question: My ninth-grade art teacher doesn’t give any grade above 94% because, she says, "There’s always room for improvement." In previous years, I earned a 99% and a 100%. The 94 I received this term does not reflect the hard work that I put into this course. Because of her "improvement" theory, I got a lower grade than I deserve. Is her grading philosophy ethical (符合职业道德规范的)?
Answer: Your teacher’s grading system may be unwise, but it is not unethical. A teacher deserves wide latitude in selecting the method of grading that best promotes learning in her classroom; that is, after all, the prime function of grades. It is she who has the training and experience to make this decision. Assuming that your teacher is neither biased nor corrupt and that her system conforms to school rules, you can’t fault her ethics.
You can criticize her methodology. A 100 need not imply that there is no possibility of improvement, only that a student successfully completed the course work. A ninth grader could get a well-earned 100 in English class but still have a way to go before she writes as well as Jane Austen. What’s more, grades are not only an educational device but are also part of a screening system to help assign kids to their next class or program. By capping her grades at 94 while most other teachers grade on a scale that tops out at 100, your teacher could jeopardize a student’s chance of getting a scholarship or getting into a top college.
What it is wrong to condemn her for is overlooking your hard work. Your diligence is worthy of encouragement, but effort does not equal accomplishment. If scholars suddenly discovered that Rembrandt had dashed off "The Night Watch" in an afternoon, it would still be "The Night Watch." I could spend months sweating over my own "paintings", but I’d produce something you wouldn’t want to hang in your living room. Or your garage.
One feature of a good grading system is that those measured by it generally regard it as fair and reasonable—not the case here. Simmering (难以平息的) resentment is seldom an aid to education. And so your next step should be to discuss your concerns with your teacher or the principal.
[br] We learn from the answer that a student who gets a 100 should still work hard and keep______.
选项
答案
improving
解析
细节题。答案在Answer部分的第二段第二、三句。A 100 need not imply that there is no possibility of improvement,only that a student successfully completed the course work.A ninth grader could get a well—earned 100 in English class but still have a way to go before she writes as well as Jane Austen.(一个拿到了100分的学生仍有很大的需要进步的空间,100分只是表示他/她出色地完成了课程任务。一个九年级的学生可以在英语课上获得一个漂亮的i00分,但想拥有简·奥斯丁那样的文笔,还有很长的路要走。)第二句中的improvement表示“继续进步,不断提高”的意思,而题干中keep后需接动词ing形式,因此填入的词是improving。
