Some people believe that competition for high grades motivates students to excel in the classroom. Others believe that such competition seriously limits the quality of real learning.
Attitude: high grades 优秀
提纲：
（+）：竞争好（运动比赛）有利于激发同学们的潜能，制造压力，使同学们认真去学习所要求的知识，grades提供了一个竞争的标准。比赛排名。排名的意义。
（-）如果没有分数上的竞争压力，有些同学甚至都不会花时间在学习上，而沉浸于完了荒废学业。（中国的大学，不求分数只求及格，错失了access to 自己有用的知识）
（-）：但是这个grades的评分系统和依据不能是单一的（中国的高考），如果单一标准，会产生应试的效果，而不是真正地掌握和体会知识的应用。这样是绝对会limits the quality of real learning。
（+）：当系统有了完善的评分标准（包括了实践技能，平常课堂表现，考试分数，课外活动的参与），那么，这就的确能完善地评价出学生的学习程度，避免了很多偶然的可能性，保证了公平。（考前突击，考试作弊）。如此在分数上的竞争就能让同学们的水平的到提高。
Competition is the initial motivation to the improvements of every career. As we all know, nowadays, competition is one of the vital components of modern society, which exist in our daily life. When people study or work in a competitive atmosphere, he or she is under pressure. This kind of pressure will stimulates people’s potential which phenomenon could be well explained in sports games. Almost every world record was broken in formal match(运动比赛的话要用哪个词game match competition?), and it is proved in metabolism career that when putting people under tension of physical or psychic, people will have different body environment, which will accelerates their speed of thinking or acting, even it’s easier to focus their attention. so it is necessary to exerting pressure on students, one of the efficient approach is encourage the competition for higher grades, which is a useful standard measuring their ability in learning. (竞争好) Without the warning from grades, things will be disparate. Like in universities in china, some students don’t pay attention to their scores in class for the diploma will be delivered as long as they passed every test. Some may say: without the courses’ occupation, he or she will spend bunch of time focusing on what really interests them instead of struggle in major studies. But most of the students who ignores academic achievement would neglect their self-development too. Under this circumstance some behavior of them are just looks like self-abandon which ruined their life in long term. Because as a student, they are weak at self-management the reason of which is that they are comparative young and naïve. (不竞争不好) However, if we want to using grades as a measuring standard judging students learning, we should give deep thought to the judgment system. If the grades comes from only once or twice tests scores, this would be full of occasional and accidental factors, which loss the fairly that a standard requires. In China, universities enroll students by the scores of university entrance test, which is a test conducted in the last semester of high school. In this enrollment system, the test score is the only consideration. However, one test could be affected by so many unexpected elements, such as occasional physical problem, whether change and so on, all factors which have no relationship with learning contribute to the final score appeared in paper. Moreover, this system encourages the crams instead of the real learning which will lead to a risk of the brain drain.(评价单一不优秀) To avoid the condition refer to unfair, more judgment standard should be involved, such as daily performance, out-of class activities, presentations relevant to learning and so on, all above should be associated to the grades you get at last. This will avoid the phenomenon of cheating or the lucky crams. Under these judgments, students would no longer forget the knowledge once after test, for they have to exposed to study in daily performance instead of cramming one week before tests.（评价不单一优秀） In a nutshell, competition makes progress, high grades is a motivation to students. But the grades should come from a fair，multiple and rigorous judgment system, which not only won’t lead to brain drain, but also could extravagate students potential.
