Scandals are rooted in test-based systems; they exist with or without fraud. We sell our children short when we send them to schools where testing replaces teaching, test-taking replaces learning, and test scores are the【S1】______goal.
To understand how tests and learning become enemies, imagine the impact on teachers whose job security suddenly depends on the【S2】______application of a statistical model that almost all assessment experts warn cannot【S3】______measure teachers’ performance.
These teachers know that under such a system, they will rank lower if they spend time teaching ideas that, while important to students, aren’t【S4】______on the crucial test. They will rank lower if they【S5】______the challenge of teaching troubled children or working in a high-poverty area where students’ academic performance is【S6】______by fewer opportunities to learn outside school.
After 10 years’ experience with the No Child Left Behind law, researchers have repeatedly shown that【S7】______high stakes to test scores pushes engaging lessons aside in favor of upsetting tost preparation. Art, science and social studies are crowded out. Why teach a subject if it won’t be tested? These are understandable【S8】______to clear incentives, even if they undermine the【S9】______goals of schooling. And the higher the stakes placed on test results, the more the learning process is distorted (扭曲). Teachers, their unions and parents are right to be concerned.
When we send our children to schools, we expect they’ll be engaged and challenged. Yes, tests are an important part of that; they【S10】______teachers about what students know. But testing isn’t teaching. Forcibly inserting tests into the heart of schooling harms learning and hurts children.
A) accept I) inform
B) acknowledgement J) real
C) attaching K) recommendation
D) denial L) responses
E) determined M Restrained
F) inappropriate N) ultimate
G) included O) validly
H) finally
【S1】
选项
答案
N
解析
该空格位于介词the和名词goal之间,由此推断应填入形容词。由上文可知,目前学校处于一种误区中,即完全以考试来代替教学和学习,因此当前考试分数就成了教学的最终目的,故选择ultimate“最终的”。
