问题     We are all interested in equality, but while some people try to protect the school examination system in the name of equality, others, still in the name of equality, want only to destroy it.
    Any society which is interested in equality of opportunity and standards of achievement must regularly test its pupils. The standards may be changed—no examination is perfect—but to have no tests or examinations would mean the end of equality and of standards. There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in examinations or in any controls in school or on teachers. This would mean everything would depend on luck since every pupil would depend on the values and the purpose of each teacher.
    Without examinations, employers will look for employees from the highly respected schools and from families known to them—a form of favoritism will replace equality. At the moment, the bright child from an ill-respected school can show certificates to prove he is suitable for a job, while the lack of a certificate indicates the unsuitability of a dull child attending a well-respected school. This defense of excellence and opportunity would disappear if examinations were taken away, and the bright child from a poor family would be a prisoner of his school’s reputation, unable to compete for employment with the child from the favored school.
    The opponents of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils. According to these people, there must be no special, different academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area; all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection. The selection would be made by people who themselves are probably selected by some computer.
Those who support examinations believe that without examinations, ______.
选项 A、there will be no equality nor standards
B、the bright child will have no opportunity
C、the employers will favor the dull child
D、schools for bright children would lose their reputation
答案A
解析 事实细节题。由第二段第二句“…but to have no tests or examinations would mean the end of equality and of standards．”可知，支持考试制度的人认为：没有考试就没有平等和标准。故选A。
