Question

Do you mind sharing your test scores with others?

On May 16, Guo Ruiting , 14 from Shenzhen Foreign Language School, had a big debate (辯論) with her classmates on this topic.

Guo believed that making the scores public would make students study harder. At first, she explained many theories (理論) that she had collected on the Internet. But they were too difficult to understand. So she was easily beaten by her opponent (對(duì)方) Du Xiaoshe.

“Publishing the results of our tests is bad for us,” said Du. He came to this conclusion (結(jié)論) after he failed his history exam one month ago. He thought it was just an accident. But he felt so hurt when his parents got a list of his marks. It also showed the marks of other students in his class.

His experience seemed to have won over many students. But Guo’s team didn’t give up.

“Don’t you forget the time when we all worked harder after knowing the average mark of Class 2?” asked Guo. “We’d have never been so good if we didn’t know how far we were behind. So it’s good to know others’ marks,” said Guo.

These words encouraged Du. He partly agreed with Guo’s team. He thought it was good to show the average mark of each class but not individual (個(gè)人的) marks. This is the perfect way to respect their privacy (隱私) and make them work hard as well.
