For a generation now, school reform has meant what students must be taught and carried out by standardized（标准化的）tests.
Here’s a thought experiment. Suppose that next year almost every student passed the tests. What would the reaction be from people? Would they shake their heads in respect and say, “Damn, those teachers must be good!”?
Of course not. Such remarkable success would be used as evidence that the tests were too easy and it needs to raise standards. “High standards” really means “standards that all students will never be able to meet”. My little thought experiment uncovers a truth that we have been taught to respond with doubt whenever all members of any group are successful. In America, success doesn’t count unless it is got by only a few.
Consider widespread complaints about “grade inflation（膨胀）” in higher education. Many people don’t even bother to stress that grades have risen over time. They simply point to how many students get A’s right now. The goal, in other words, isn’t to do well but to defeat other people who are also trying to do well. Grades in testing should be used to announce who’s beating whom. A school’s final task, apparently, is not to help everyone learn but to prepare the game so that there will always be losers.
This makes no sense in any situation. Perhaps, for example, we can defend rating states or nations based on the quality of their air, health care or schools, but ranking them is foolish. School testing ranking doesn’t lead to improvements in performance but tends to hold us back from doing our best. It makes productive teamwork less likely and leads all concerned to focus not on meaningful improvements but on trying to beat everyone else.
Most of all, it encourages the false belief that excellence is a zero-sum game. It would be more reasonable to rescue the spirit of the concept: Everyone may not succeed, but at least in theory all of us could.
1.What did the writer’s thought experiment prove?
A.Good teachers represent higher test scores.
B.Excellence is regarded as a rare thing.
C.American tests are usually too easy.
D.Students don’t meet the test standards.
2.What does the writer think American schools seem to do?
A.Promote teachers to teach better. B.Remove the belief of beating others.
C.Help all students do well at school. D.Ensure the existence of failures.
3.What is the writer’s attitude towards schools testing ranking?
A.Disapproving. B.Optimistic.
C.Sympathetic. D.Unconcerned.
4.What is the best title for the text?
A.How Can Students Succeed? B.Why Can’t Everyone Get A’s?
C.What Standards Do Schools Set? D.Who Get Best Grades at School?

Waiting for the airplane to take off, I was happy to get a seat by myself. Just then, a flight attendant 41 me and asked, "Would you mind changing your seat? A couple would like to sit together. “The only other42seat was next to a woman with both arms in casts（石膏）, a black-and-blue face, and a depressed emotion."43am I going to sit there" was my immediate thought.44then a deeper, quieter voice spoke, "Opportunity.”Finally I took my new seat and 45that Kathy had been in an auto collision, and she was on her way for 46。
When the snack of nuts and juice arrived, 47did not take me long to realize that Kathy would not be able to48herself. I considered offering to feed her but49 , as it seemed too close a service to offer to a stranger. But then I decided that Kathy's need was more important than my50 . I offered to help her eat, and although she too was uncomfortable about __51___it, she did. The experience was 52and she and I ___53__close in a short period of time. By the end of the five-hour trip, my heart was fully 54, and the time was __55___ better spent than if I had just sat by myself.
I was very glad I had reached beyond my comfort zone to sit next to Kathy and feed her. Love sometimes 56beyond human borders and dissolves the fears 57 keep us separate. When we stretch to serve another, we grow to live in a larger, more58world.
Help me move 59the small self so I can connect with the hearts of others.
When I give60to another, I feed my own soul.
