It is said that standardized testing harms children. The tests upset pupils and make them fear. If a pupil gets a low score he will be seriously damaged. Standardized testing is not agreeable to the regular educational orders designed to support the child.
There is, no doubt, anecdotal(轶事)evidence to support some of these views. However, common sense suggests that the majority of pupils are not harmed by testing, and as far as I know there is no real data that would not support common sense on this matter. The teachers I talk with seem much more often, to be concerned with pupils who don't care enough how well or how poorly they do on such tests, than with the relatively rare facts of pupils who care too much.
It is normal to be somewhat anxious when facing my real tests. But it is also necessary part of growing up to learn to deal with the tests that life certainly brings. Of the many challenges to a child's peace of mind, caused by such things as angry parents, bad dogs and shots from the doctor, standardized tests must surely be among the least fearsome. Unwise parental pressure can in some cases raise anxiety to harmful levels. A pupil who regularly get slow scores on tests of what that pupil has tried hard to learn is indeed likely to become discouraged. If this does happen, the school cannot declare to be offering a good educational program, and the teacher cannot declare to be doing a good job of teaching. Most low scores on tests, however, go to pupils who, for one reason or another, have not tried very hard to learn. In the opinion of the teachers of such pupils, it is the trying rather than the testing that is most in need of correction.
1.What is the main idea of the passage about the view that standardized tests harm children?
[ ]
A.The writer considers it be reasonable.
B.The writer thinks it unreasonable.
C.The writer finds some anecdotal evidence to support it.
D.It has been proved by some real data.
2.According to the writer, the reason for the most low scores on tests is that ________.
[ ]
A.the pupils do not study hard
B.The educational program is not good enough
C.The teachers are not doing a good job of teaching
D.The pupils don't care enough how well or how poorly they do on such tests

As the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of relaxation. Once you are in the habit of rushing through lift, being on the go from morning till night, it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body.
Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.
The amount of stress a person can withstand(抵抗)depends very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress, and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities. Others lose heart at the first signs of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress, in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make choice between "fight" or "flight" and in more primitive days the choice made the difference between life or death. The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme, but however little the stress is, it involves the same response. It is when such a reaction lasts long, through continued exposure to stress, that health becomes endangered. Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and heart disease have established links with stress. Since we cannot remove stress from our lives (it would be unwise to do so even if we could), we need to find ways to deal with it.
【小题1】People are finding less and less time for relaxing themselves because_____.
A.they do not know how to enjoy themselves |
B.they do not believe that relaxation is important for health |
C.they are travelling fast all the time |
D.they are becoming busier with their work |
A.not fearing stress | B.knowing the art of relaxation |
C.high sense of responsibility | D.having control over performance |
A.We can find some ways to avoid stress. |
B.Stress is always harmful to people. |
C.It is easy to change the habit of keeping oneself busy with work. |
D.Different people can withstand different amounts of stress. |
A."making a choice between 'flight' or 'fight'" |
B."reaction to stress both chemically and physically" |
C."responding to crises quickly" |
D."losing heart at the signs difficulties" |
A."expose ourselves to stress" |
B."find ways to deal with stress" |
C."remove stress from our lives" |
D."established links between diseases and stress" |
