Todd: What about the idea that some people think that maybe there should be no grades? That there is just maybe you achieve or don't achieve. It's more binary. Either yes or no.
托德:有人认为不应该有评分,你怎么看?他们认为只有做到和没做到之分。像二进制一样,只有是和否。
Nydja: I don't really know how I feel about that. I went to a school when I was younger that actually didn't have ... everybody was just put together in a large room and different teachers worked with different students according to their abilities and there were no grades. As an adult now, I'm not really sure how I feel about that system. I wasn't there long enough to see what I could do with that environment. If it benefited me, or if it was to my detriment, so I really don't have an opinion on that.
妮迪亚:我不太清楚对这种观点是什么感觉。我小时候念过一所学校,所有人都在一间大教室里,依据学生的能力,会有不同的老师来授课,没有评分。现在我是成年人了,我不太确定我对这种制度的感觉。我在那所学校的时间不长,我不知道我能否适应那个环境。我也不知道那种制度是有益于我,还是对我不利,所以我只能说我对这种观点没有什么判断。
Todd: How about when you were younger, were you often stressed about your grades?
托德:你小时候经常因为成绩感到压力吗?
Nydja: Yes. Yes, I was. I was very stressed. I used to stay up until three or four o'clock in the morning trying to complete projects. Studying all the time. I also did track, so I was very worried. You're in competition with your classmates because later on you have to go and get into college and then you have to get a job and it all starts in primary and secondary school, so it's important to do well there.
妮迪亚:对,是的,经常。我压力非常大。我以前为了完成学习任务经常要熬夜到凌晨三四点。我当时一直在学习。我要跟上进度,所以我当时非常担心。你要和同学竞争,才能上大学,找到工作,而这些都要从小学和初中打好基础,所以从小就要做好。
Todd: So, you're very young but later in life with children, would you want your children to worry about grades, or would you want to be a parent that tell them "huh, not so much!"
托德:你现在很年轻,以后你有了孩子,你希望你的孩子担心成绩,还是你会告诉你的孩子:“哈,不用那么担心!”
Nydja: No, they will definitely be ... if I have children, they will definitely be concerned about the grades that they're earning, and I will not be easy on them in that regard at all. So, they have a lot coming to them.
妮迪亚:不,他们肯定会……如果我有了孩子,他们肯定会担心成绩,在这方面,我不会对他们太宽容。他们要面对的还很多。
