阅读理解 In ancient times the most important examinations were spoken, not written. In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome, testing usually was made up of saying poetry aloud and giving speeches.
In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working for advanced degrees had to discuss ques-tions in their field of study with people who had made a spe-cial study of the subject. This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates (应试者) for the doctor’s de-gree.
Generally, however, modem examinations are written. The written examination, where all students are tested on the same questions, was probably not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and the development of modem industry. A room full of candidates for a state examination timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by managers, looks like a group of workers at an automobile factory. Certainly, during examinations teachers and students are expected to act like machines.
One type of test is sometimes called an “objective” test. It is intended to deal with facts, not personal opinions. To make up an objective test, the teacher writes a series (一系列)of ques-tions, each of which has only one correct answer. Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like answers to students who have not learned the material properly. 1.The main idea of Paragraph Three is that ________.A.workers now take examinations B.the population has grownC.there are only written exams today D.examinations are now written and timed2.The kind of exams where students must select answers are A.objective B.personal C.spoken D.written3.Modem industry must have developed ________.A.around the 19th century B.before the Middle AgesC.in Greece or Rome D.machines to take tests4.It may be concluded that testing ________.A.should test only opinions B.should always be writtenC.is given only in factories D.has changed since the Middle Ages
