会继续陈述考试的坏处或缺点,从余下的4段中找到[D]段。其中说到,孩子们从踏进校门的那一刻起就陷入残酷的竞争。在这种竞争中,成功和失败界限分明。对那些还没有开始自己的事业就被社会定为失败的人而辍学,你会感到惊讶吗?面对居高不下的学生自杀率你会吃惊吗?[D]段接着数落考试的弊病,所以42题的答案应当是[D]。
[E]段说,一种好的教育应该培养人们的独立思考能力,而考试制度却不是培养学生去独立思考,大纲规定了学生要学的东西,并鼓励学生去死记硬背。考试限制了学生的阅读量,考试鼓励填鸭式教学。
[C]段说,他们降低了教育水准,因为他们剥夺了教师们的自由。因为学生的考试成绩也是评判老师教学效果的标准,所以教师不是教授课程,而是把教学简化成训练学生的考试技巧。结果最成功的应试者不是知识最丰富的人,而是被迫掌握考试技巧最为熟练的人。
[E]段与[C]段以讲教学为主,着墨在教师身上。很明显[C]段应排在[E]段之后,所以[E]段是43题的答案,[C]段是44题的答案。
[B]段讲,结果至关重要的考试只不过是某个匿名主考官的主观评价。主考官们也是人,他们会累、会饿,也会出错,但是他们必须在规定的时间内判定写得乱糟糟的试卷。前面讲了考试、学生、教师,这段讲考试的主考官,最后一段又讲,相信有一种更简单、更有效的测试方法,所以很显然[B]段应该在[F]段之前,所以[B]段应该是45题的答案。
[答案]
41. [A] 42. [D] 43. [E] 44. [C] 45. [B]

Directions:
The following paragraphs are given in a wrong order. For Questions 41—45, you are required to reorganize these paragraphs into a coherent article by choosing from the list A—E to fill in each numbered box. The first and the last paragraphs have been placed for you in Boxes. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. (10 points)
[A] “I just don’t know how to motivate them to do a better job. We’re in a budget crunch and I have absolutely no financial rewards at my disposal. In fact, we’ll probably have to lay some people off in the near future. It’s hard for me to make the job interesting and challenging because it isn’t — it’s boring, routine paperwork, and there isn’t much you can do about it. ”
[B] “Finally, I can’t say to them that their promotions will hinge on the excellence of their paperwork. First of all, they know it’s not true. If their performance is adequate, most are more likely to get promoted just by staying on the force a certain number of years than for some specific outstanding act. Second, they were trained to do the job they do out in the streets, not to fill out forms. All through their career it is the arrests and interventions that get noticed. ”
[C] “I’ve got a real problem with my officers. They come on the force as young, inexperienced men, and we send them out on the street, either in cars or on a beat. They seem to like the contact they have with the public, the action involved in crime prevention, and the apprehension of criminals. They also like helping people out at fires, accidents, and other emergencies. ”
[D] “Some people have suggested a number of things like using conviction records as a performance criterion. However, we know that’s not fair — too many other things are involved. Bad paperwork increases the chance that you lose in court, but good paperwork doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll win. We tried setting up team competitions based on the excellence of the reports, but the guys caught on to that pretty quickly. No one was getting any type of reward for winning the competition, and they figured why should they labor when there was no payoff. ”
[E] “The problem occurs when they get back to the station. They hate to do the paperwork, and because they dislike it, the job is frequently put off or done inadequately. This lack of attention hurts us later on when we get to court. We need clear, factual reports. They must be highly detailed and unambiguous. As soon as one part of a report is shown to be inadequate or incorrect, the rest of the report is suspect. Poor reporting probably causes us to lose more cases than any other factor. ”
[F] “So I just don’t know what to do. I’ve been groping in the dark in a number of years. And I hope that this seminar will shed some light on this problem of mine and help me out in my future work.”
[G] “A large metropolitan city government was putting on a number of seminars for administrators, managers and/or executives of various departments throughout the city. At one of these sessions the topic to be discussed was motivation -- how we can get public servants motivated to do a good job. The difficulty of a police captain became the central focus of the discussion. ”
Order:
G → 41. → 42. → 43. → 44. → 45. → F
