自从本刊发表了吴彦诗同志的《我赞成只考一篇作文》一文后,又陆续收到一些读者的来信、来稿。大多数同志认为只考一篇作文好得很,可是也还有少数同志不赞成只考一篇作文。有些同志在来稿中还揭露了某些语文教师从片面追求升学率的思想出发,脱离讲读教学大搞作文教学的错误做法。改进考试方法同改进教学方法是密切相关的,究竟应当怎样认识和对待只考一篇作文的问题,值得广大语文教师认真研究。这里特摘要发表了一些同志的来信、来稿,希望读者参加讨论。 ——编者 Since the publication of Comrade Wu Yanshi’s “I agree to only test one essay”, I have received letters and contributions from some readers. Most comrades believe that only one essay is very good, but there are still a few comrades who disagree with only one essay. Some comrades also revealed in the draft that certain language teachers proceeded from the unilateral pursuit of the rate of entering a higher school and that they were not in the wrong way of reading and teaching. The improvement of examination methods is closely related to the improvement of teaching methods. The question of how to understand and deal with only one essay should be thoroughly studied. This special summary has published some letters and contributions from comrades and hopes readers will participate in the discussion. --editor
