What do you think of open-book exams? Do you have anything to say about this kind of exam? Here are several opinions about open-book exams from some students and their teacher.

May:

We students have so many burdens (负担) in our school life. Maybe the examination is the greatest one. Open-book exams can make our burdens lighter, I think. At least it means that we need not learn so many things by heart any more.

Hill:

Open-book exams do not mean students do not need to recite (背) the textbooks any more. Instead, it shows how much students really understand about the textbook. It may mean we need to spend even more time learning history and politics because the open-book exam means going deeply into the textbooks.

Sun:

We need a long time to learn for history and politics exams because there are so many things to remember. And sometimes the results are not very good, even if we have spent a long time studying. But if we are able to take textbooks into our exams, we will save time and we won’t have so many headaches.

Tang (teacher):

Open-book tests are harder for students because the tests make them feel they do not need to understand the textbooks any longer. They only depend on the textbooks and spend most of their time looking for answers during exams. Sometimes they might not even be able to finish their tests because they have wasted too much time looking for answers.
