我国考试的历史可以追溯到夏商王朝,距今已有3000多年,所以外国人把中国叫做考试的故乡。最早的人才选拔制度是推荐制,推荐权掌握在各诸侯及以后的地方官手中。至汉代,建立了以察举为主、辅以考试的办法。但直到隋炀帝时,以考试为主的科举制才真正出现。它打破了落后的任人唯亲 The history of our examinations can be traced back to the Xia and Shang dynasties. It has been more than 3,000 years ago, so foreigners call China the hometown of examinations.
