 之夜：应试文化</a>\nHow good are exams as a test of one's aptitude?
  We know it's not a perfect system\, but is the best way? Is it the only w
 ay when there are tens of millions of students graduating every year? Coul
 d there be other ways? Do exams bring out the best in students?_x000D_ _x0
 00D_ Since the reign of emperors\, China has been very centered on examina
 tions as a way of categorizing and evaluating people. Around the world\, e
 xams for entry to college or professional school are still an important be
 nchmark. Intelligence testing is further used to determine competence in c
 ourt\, for insurance\, and for numerous other social applications. Would a
  society without them work? _x000D_ _x000D_ Let's debate!_x000D_ _x000D_ C
 ome explore explosive topics like these\, and see where the argument takes
  us! Controlled arguments help build skills like expressing yourself clear
 ly\, listening deeply\, and disagreeing respectfully\, all while letting y
 ou learn more about others and yourself!_x000D_ _x000D_ As we talk\, we wi
 ll analyze some of the best (and worst!) ways to discuss and debate in Eng
 lish._x000D_ _x000D_ 考试作为一种能力测试有多好?我们知道
 这不是一个完美的系统，但这是最好的方法吗?每年有数
 千万的学生毕业，这是唯一的方法吗?还有别的办法吗?考
 试能激发学生最好的一面吗?_x000D_ _x000D_ 自皇帝统治以来
 ，中国一直非常注重考试作为一种分类和评价人的方式
 。在世界各地，进入大学或职业学校的考试仍然是一个
 重要的基准。智力测试还被进一步用于确定在法庭、保
 险和许多其他社会应用中的能力。一个没有他们的社会
 还能运作吗?_x000D_ _x000D_ 让我们辩论吧！_x000D_ _x000D_ 一
 起来聊聊爆炸性的话题，看看你有多能侃！理性的讨论
 可以帮助每个人自我提升，比如更精准的表达，更有效
 的倾听，尊重不同的观点。与此同时，也可以从别人身
 上学到不一样的东西，了解一个全新的自己。_x000D_ _x000D
 _ 这期club我们就来讨论这个话题，并分享一些超棒（和
 超烂）的英语辩论吧！
