本题为老GRE的ISSUE55原题。题目讨论高分竞争和教学质量的关系，是很常见的话题，但分析时要注意以下三点：
1、分析要面向各个教学阶段（小学、初高中、大学等）而不是单独的；
2、竞争不仅存在于学生之间，而且在教师、学校、社会之间同样存在；
3、分析的时候要避免偏激思路，虽然大家都是从应试教育阶段走过来的，但是要注意：可以排斥，但是言语不要过激。

The speaker claims that competition for high grades seriously limits the quality of learning at all levels of education. I concede that over-competition and focus on high exam scores are
counterproductive to the quality of learning. However, in my view, the
speaker's claim is too simplistic.
Overemphasizing high exam scores may risk undermining the fundamental objective of education:to enlighten students to discover the unknown and to shape a healthy personality.First, if educators focus on high grades excessively, they would give their students a wrong information that exam grades is the most important standard to evaluate the value of students. As a response, the students would strive for acquiring high grades at all costs. They might spend most of their time on doing exercises related to the exam mechanically, or repeating what teachers taught them without thinking critically. So students, overburdened by scheduled tasks, reducing being learning machines,would find insufficient spare time to develop their interests and potentials. Second, overemphasizing competition for high grades may distorting students' personality. It may cause that students pay too much attention to competition,neglecting teamwork.Even worse, they may cheat in the exam to get high scores.
However, attitude on competition for high grades should be different with the different education stage. When it comes to elementary students, moderate competition for high grades would have positive effects. Elementary students are usually too young to have enough self-control capacity and motivation to learn. Moderate competition for high exam scores among students could motivate students to work hard and improve their academic performance,thus enhancing the quality of learning. Yet when it comes to secondary students, studying for high grades are unnecessary. In this learning stage, the main task for students is to find out what they are really interested in and to make preparations for higher education.
In fact, the flaws of competition for high scores lies on the standard which is used to determine what is right or what is wrong, rather than this kind of competition itself. Under most circumstances, the problems that we face in our daily life has not got alleged standard keys at all. To solve these problems, we need to use our imagination and creativity. However, flood of the alleged standard answers.are suffocating students' imagination and creativity.
In sum, although over-competition and focus on high exam scores are counterproductive to the purpose of education, moderate competition for high grades still have positive influences. The crux of the issue is the educational system full of alleged standard keys. We should establish an educational system that encourage students to develop imagination and creativity, rather than inhibiting imagination and creativity by alleged standard answers.
