Answer the questions. (根据短文内容,回答下列问题。)

    Who's building the new China? It's not the factory owners or the business men and women of China. It's someone else. We see them every day. They work day and night in the terrible working conditions and weather. They build the roads, the theatres, the cinemas and the supermarkets, They even clean up our rubbish. They are China's migrant workers(民工).

    More than 140 million workers have left their homes in the countryside to look for jobs in big cities all over China. They hope to be rich, but they realize they have many difficulties in making enough money. And one of the difficulties that these workers have is the discrimination(歧视)from the people in cities. Migrant workers are living far away from those who they love. Yes, they dress differently, they speak differently, and they have different habits, but they work hard. The people in cities treat them as outsiders, and most governments don't want to give them medical care and public schooling for their children. If China hopes to move into the future, many things need to change. The first is discrimination!We need to stop our discrimination!They may not make as much money as some people do in cities, but they are good honest people just trying to survive this game of life. These workers are very important and necessary to China's economic(经济)development and have become an important force for the change of Chinese society. They are building the new China, so we should help them.

    When it comes to the letter grade on your test or homework, you might notice that there is no letter E. Have you ever thought about why that is so?

    In the A, B, C, D and F grading system, the first four letters are typically considered passing grades. An F in this system simply stands for“fail”.The word“fail”happens to start with the letter F, which seems to leave out the letter E. The fact”.Some schools have U grade for“unsatisfactory”,or I grade for “incomplete”.

    Even with all this said, we should also point out that E grade actually has been used pretty commonly throughout the history of letter grades in the US.

    The first college in the US to use a letter grading system like the ones we use today is Mount Holyoke College. In 1897, they began to use the following grading scale:

A: 95-100%(excellent)       B: 85-94%(good)      C: 76-84%(fair)

D: 75%(barely passed)       E: below 75%(failed)

    We can see the inclusion of E instead of F.

    Gradually,the letter grading system became more popular throughout the US. However, many schools decided to drop the E grade and go straight to F.There is no evidence(证据) to really support this, but one possible explanation is that teachers were worried that some students and parents might mistake E for “excellent”.

    Why do we have letter grades? Well, part of the reason is that they made grading simpler during a time of great change for schools. As the 20th century began,growing cities and an increase in immigration led to larger school classrooms. Most teachers at that time thought this new letter grading system was an easy, fair and clear way to grade students.

    Today, more and more people argue that letter grades don't fully reflect(反映) student learning. However,as teachers try to improve grading methods, many parents continue to favor the letter grades they got as kids, they are familiar(熟悉) and easy for parents to understand. So while they might not be perfect, the letter grades probably aren't going away any time soon.
