In our system of education today, examinations area common feature. Our present education system has often been criticized as too examination-oriented (以考试为导向的). However, one must remember that in offices and other areas of work, examinations still feature clearly. There is no doubt that the fear and influence of examination cause much preparation work. So it therefore appears that examinations whether considered good or bad would stay for a while as a test of human knowledge. Examinations are meant to test the intellect of a person, how much he knows or how he has learnt from a particular course. It is designed to make students study, which should be their immediate mission in life. In our competitive world of today, examinations have a highly selecting or filtering(筛选) role. In the university, students have to pass annual examinations before they are allowed to continue, or study a harder syllabus (教学大纲). Moreover, for entrance into a university, pre-university examination results would provide a guide as to whether a student has the minimum qualifications necessary. In offices either government or private ones, examination results show clearly whether a person is fit for promotion. The results indicate how much he knows about the work. In all these cases, examinations inculcate (灌输) a spirit of hard work and competition. Students or office workers can refresh their mind again and again on what they have learnt. This maintains a certain individual and overall standard of knowledge. 17． The first paragraph mainly indicates that ______. | 分值 | |

ISEP is a group of colleges and universities around the world. They cooperate to provide international educational experiences for their students. 260 schools in the United States and 35 in other countries are members of the program. Students can study for up to one year in the United States or any of the other countries involved. They do not have to go through the usual application process to get into a school. And pay only what they would have to pay for a term at their own school at home. To take part in the ISEP program, students must attend a member college or university. Each school has an ISEP coordinator who helps students apply to the ISEP office in Washington, D.C. To be accepted, students must have good grades. They must also provide TOEFL scores. TOEFL is the Test of English as a Foreign Language. Students are asked to list up to ten choices of American schools they would like to attend.
