　　Can Test Tell the Whole Story

　　考试能反映全部水平吗

　　Tests are considered an effective way of measuring students' ability. But can they tell the whole story? And are they the only way to measure one's ability?

　　考试被视作衡量学生能力的一种有效方式。但是考试能反映全部水平吗?考试是衡量一个人能力的唯一方式吗?

　　These questions are worth discussing. Some say that tests can tell the whole story, because if you really understand, whenever and however to test you is no problem. But others disagree. They think tests are usually done on paper or in oral form instead of being done in practice. It is not necessarily the case that one who gets high scores in an intellectual test must be a talent.

　　这些问题值得讨论。有人说考试能说明一切，因为如果你真正理解了，不管什么时候、通过何种方式来测试，你都没有问题。但是有些人并不赞同。他们认为考试通常是在纸上或通过口头形式，而非在实践中完成的。在智力测试中取得高分的人一定是天才，事情并不一定是这样的。

　　As I see it, tests are one of the most important ways to examine one's ability. If they can't, why do we have to face so many tests? At least, tests can help us be aware of our weaknesses or strengths. However, tests cannot tell the whole story. They cannot prove everything. We should prove our knowledge and ability by applying theory to practice. Tests are an important and effective way of measuring one's ability, but not the only way.(176 words)

　　依我看来，考试是检验一个人能力的最重要途径之一。如果它们不能检验人的能力，我们为什么还得面对如此多的考试呢?至少，考试能帮助我们了解到自己的弱点和强项。但是，考试并不能说明一切，它们不能证明一切。我们应该通过把理论应用到实际中，来证明自己的知识和能力。考试是衡量一个人能力的重要且有效的方式，但不是唯一的方式。
