Why are there exams? Tears

Origin of the "exam".

China is the birthplace of the exam. As a culturally precocious country, the earliest origins of the examination system can be traced back to the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties. The 11th edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica, published in 1910, states that

In history, the earliest examination system was the system of selecting administrative ** in China by examination (according to the records of 1115 BC), and the regular assessment of the ** who had entered the official career (according to the records of 2200 BC). The word "examination" is composed of the words "examination" and "examination", and there are records in the "Book of Shang" such as "the test can be already", "the test is not available", "the perfunctory performance is to speak, and the clear test is to merit", "three years of performance appraisal, three examinations are dethroned", and the statement of the "Encyclopedia Britannica" is based on the treatises of some Western scholars on the imperial examination in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and the statements of these treatises are based on the records of the "Shangshu".

"Examination" and "examination" are two concepts with similar meanings, both of which have multiple meanings such as examination, testing, and assessment. The use of the words "test" and "test" began in Dong Zhongshu's "Spring and Autumn Dew" in the Western Han Dynasty, which said: "The method of examination is slow for the big and urgent for the small; The noble is comfortable, and the cheap is promoted.

The princes test their countries every month, and the states test their ministries when they are uncles, and they take four tests and one test. The Son of Heaven is the year old, three tests and one test. After three exams before and after, he was dethroned, and his fate was planned.

It can be seen that the original word "test" focused more on the meaning of assessing political performance, and the word "test" focused more on the meaning of measuring merit and disadvantage. When "examination" and "examination" are combined into one word, their connotation gradually evolves to refer specifically to the methods and systems for testing knowledge or skills.

The exam is a great invention of the Chinese. When people need to measure and screen the differences in the knowledge and talents of others in order to "select talents and abilities", exams are created. Since ancient times, China has attached great importance to the selection of talents, and there are no more than two types of methods for selecting talents

One is a recommendation, and the other is an exam. Recommendations are like horses, exams are like horse racing, Maxima is often available, and Bole is often not. If not favored by the recommender, many Maxima may die of old age between stables.

For example, if there is no college entrance examination, then the country cannot choose to learn talents! It's the same with physical education exams, if you don't have exams, you can't find talent! So the exam is a must, come on!

Actually, I'm also very entangled.

But I think the test is to help the teacher and you understand what you're not doing well enough.

How can you prove yourself without an exam?
