Chapter 3 Text Building Strong relationships

=II. Short Answer Question=

1. Provide a way to help guarntee a happy marrirage which is given in paragraph C.

2. In paragraph D, how do teacher do to help student develope better interpersonal relationship? 這兩題好像都是問個人意見(?) 可是......感覺評分會不好評

我初步判斷 問答題的基本功能確實是問個人意見 (是根據專業英文答題的印象) 然後 選用問答題 可能是要豐富試題內容 讓測驗免於流俗 提供一個 良性的 WASHBACK 可增加試題得可靠程度 還請 批評指教

考試考得是閱讀測驗，但是又希望有short answer的時候， 必須拿掉可能會導致"subjective scoring"的部份，答案須能在文章內找到，才不會失去reliability. （例如我們專英考short answer，但其實答案都是跟文章相關的. ）

詳細可以去翻閱課本 :)

另外，麻煩請寫出你用的subskill（p,138-139） 詳細請參考stacey跟phoebe寫的

對了，麻煩編輯完後可以在word再檢查一次，因為有些wrong typing. 我不確定那些字是文章內的特殊用字或是單純的wrong typing，也無法擅自修正，謝謝.

我是用 Word 檔打得 我會確認一次 禮拜一會補上 S - Skill 謝謝提醒 !

關於問答題可行的 辦法 只要盡量限制答題者 的答題範圍應該就可以增加可靠程度

我會再作修改 可能會給一個完全明確的 答題方向

( 實際上一開始也有去考慮這部份 所以 才會要求他們 給我答案然後附上理由)

但似乎無法滿足你們所要的要求 總之 ! 謝謝 ! = =

Dear, 這篇我稍微修改了一下（修內文跟兩個答案），因為我找了一下課本， 出這種東西的答案要是內文找得到，而且不太能用其他單字代換的答案比較好.

不過subskill的地方可能也要修改一下， 我覺得像考「文意(comprehension或 understanding)」的也可以寫. 因為學生還是要整個看過才能對照找出答案. （詳細也一樣請看課本p138-139）

叮嚀一下，老師說subskill盡量用多一點，所以可以扯到的請全部牽拖進來，謝謝ＸＤ
