72. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Grades (marks) encourage students to learn. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
When it comes to the issue that whether grades can encourage students to learn or not, some people holds the view that grades, to some extent, can lead the education to be a short-cut to nothing but high scores. While others think it is beneficial for students to do better in their study jobs. As far as I am concerned, I think grades, as the demonstration of endeavor, can serve as a standard measurement to evaluate students’ academic level, and finally stimulate them to learn more and learn better..
To begin with, grades act as the demonstration of students' effort spent on study all over the schools in the world. Examination, as a way to select best students, has been conducted for a long time and it still works well, even though causes some problems. No body can deny the fact that grades show at least several aspects of students' behavior in school. It is the demonstration of their hard working. Imagining a school without exams, students would lose their passion to study and have no pressure at all. Under this circumstance, how can universities select the best students from high school? More and more unfair procedures will occur. So grades are essential for students to focus on their study job and set up a pacific goal and also important for universities to choose whom they should offer their admissions and scholarships.
Furthermore, grades can not only help students themselves to review their study work timely but also provide teachers a concrete standard to evaluate every individual student’s ability and weak point. Facing to the mistakes made in the exam, students can master the knowledge more solidly and cultivate some spiritual merits such as carefulness and calmness. A high-score student will become more confident and have more courage to get a better score. By analyzing examination reports, teachers can become more familiar with every individual student’s advantage and weak points. Better procedures and methods will be adopted to improve students’ study jobs, in this point, they will learn better.
Finally, I want to say that grades, in most circumstances, serve as a key point for employers to hire the students who just graduated from school. For lacking of specific experiences, students who just left campus only can use their GPA as a weapon to fight for a good job. The higher grade they have, the more opportunities they will have. So in order to get a good job, students will try to learn better.
From the reasons mentioned above, grades, as the proof of students' behavior in studying can promote their study motivations, although today, it also causes some problems like some schools cut the sports time and let students learning academic causes all the week.
