Then, one by one, the teacher called our names.As each paper was given back to the correct student, the front of the answer paper would always be turned to face the ground and the paper itself would be slightly folded (折叠) to prevent anyone from seeing.In fact, folding each test paper is a way to make sure that each student sees only his or her own scores. The scores are seen as private information not to be announced or shown to others. As a way to keep the students score records secret, each student is given an online account (帐号) with which to check his or her grades posted on the official school website.Protecting students private information always comes first in US schools that want to free students from unnecessary pressure. Academic (学业上的) reports are guarded closely to prevent poor academic grades from damaging a students dignity and reputation (有损学生的尊严和声誉), which are for himself or herself only.However, some insist that although students feelings and self-dignity are easily hurt, they cannot be forever protected. They say that school also teach their students to make themselves stronger in mind, and the classroom should show the reality of competition in society. Scores that everyone can see might better encourage students to work harder to be better than others.Protecting of students privacy (隐私) in US schoolsThe writers _After the bell rang, its _of students to sit and wait for theirscores for a test in Biology.The teacher called students names and handed out the papers.He received test papers facing down and folded several times.Other way takenEach student is even _with an online account with which to check his or her grades on the official school website.Reasons behindSchools want to free students from unnecessary pressure.Schools are trying to prevent poor academic from damaging a students _dignity and reputation among his or her classmates.Different ideasSome think students are overprotected.Schools should teach their students to be stronger in mind and try to make greater _than others.The classroom should show the reality of competition in society.五、 补全对话。 (共1题；共3分)21. （3分）阅读对话，根据横线后所给标点符号的提示，在横线上填写适当的句子，使对话完
