A good education should, among other things, train you to think 26 yourself. The examination system does anything but 27 . What has to be learned is rigidly laid down by the syllabus, 28 the student is encouraged to memorize. Examinations do not motivate a student to read 29 , but to restrict his reading; they do not enable him to 30 more and more knowledge, but induce cramming. They lower the standards of teaching, 31 they deprive the teachers of 32 freedom. Teachers themselves are often judged by examination 33 and instead of teaching their subjects, they are reduced 34 training students in exam techniques which they despise. The most successful are not 35 the best educated; they are the best trained 36 the technique of working under stress. The results 37 which so much depends are often 38 more than a subjective assessment by 39 anonymous examiner. Examiners are 40 human beings. They get tired and hungry; they make mistakes. 41 they have to mark stacks of 42 scrawled script in a limited amount of time. They work under the same sort of pressure 43 the candidates. And their word carries weight. After a judge's decision you have the right of appeal, but not after an 44 . There must surely be 45 simpler and more effective ways of assessing a person's true ability.

Today the official language of the United States and most of Canada is English. However, French almost became the official language because of a war.
The French and Indian War was fought between 1754 and 1763. The name of this war is not accurate because the war was actually between England and France. The Indians fought on the side of the French.
France and England were trying to gain control of North America. France held Canada, and England held part of what is now the United States. However, France tried to expand its land by moving southward into New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Virginia. When the French build a fort on the Ohio River, the residents in Virginia sent George Washington to attack the fort in 1725. However, the French defeated Washington.
The French, aided by the Indians, outsmarted the English and won many early battles. Later, the British began to do well against the French. In the final battle in Quebec, Canada, General Wolfe of England faced General Montcalm from France. Both generals died in this battle, but the English outlasted the French and won the battle. Thus, most of North America today has the English culture and language.
