When it comes to the letter grade on your test or homework, you might notice that there is no letter E. Have you ever thought about why that is so?
In the A, B, C, D and F grading system, the first four letters are typically considered passing grades. An F in this system simply stands for "fail". The word "fail" happens to start with the letter F, which seems to leave out the letter E.
The first college in the US to use a letter grading system like the ones we use today is Mount Holyoke College. In 1897, they began to use the following grading scale;
A: 95-100% (excellent) B: 85-94% (good) C: 76-84% (fair)
D: 75%( nearly passed) E: below 75% (failed)
We can see the inclusion of E instead of F.
Gradually, the letter grading system became more popular all over the US. However, many schools decided to drop the E grade and go straight to F. There is no evidence(证据) to really support this, but one possible explanation is that teachers were worried that some students and parents might mistake E for "excellent".
Why do we have letter grades? Well, part of the reason is that they made grading simpler during a time of great change for schools. As the 20th century began, growing cities and an increase in immigration led to larger school classrooms. Most teachers at that time thought this new letter grading system was an easy, fair and clear way to grade students.
Today, more and more people think that letter grades don't fully show students' learning. However, as teachers try to improve grading methods, many parents continue to prefer the letter grades they got as kids, as they are familiar and easy for parents to understand. So while they might not be perfect, the letter grades probably aren't going away any time soon.

Long ago, there was a wise old woman. All the children used to ask her questions. 1.
There was a naughty little boy. One day, he caught a little bird. He held it in his hands. 2. Then he had an idea.
He said to himself, "I'll ask her what's in my hands. Of course she will know that I have a bird. 3. If she says the bird is dead, I'll open my hands and let the bird fly away. If she says the bird is alive, I'll quickly kill it and show her the dead bird. This time she won't give me the right answer."
The boy went to the old woman. He said, "Granny, I have a question for you. 4. "
"Well, it must be a bird," the old woman answered.
" 5. " the boy asked again.
The old woman thought for a moment. Then she answered, "It is up to you, my child."
A.Is the bird alive or dead?
B.What's in my hands?
C.He wanted to make fun of the old woman.
D.She always gave them the right answers.
E.You will let it fly away.
F.The old man lived with his grandson.
G.Then I'll ask her if the bird is alive or dead.
Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, made full use of the greatest resources of the English Language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our daily English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty five thousand! There is probably no better way for a foreigner to enjoy the richness and variety(多样性) of the English language than by studying the different ways in which Shakespeare uses it. Such a study is well worth the effort, even though some aspects（方面）of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeare’s day.
However, it is surprising that we should know little about the life of the greatest English writer. We know that Shakespeare was born in 1564 in Stratford on Avon, and that he died there in 1616. He almost certainly attended the Grammar School in the town, but of this we cannot be sure. We know he was married there in 1582 to Anne Hathaway and that he had three children. We know that he spent much of his life in London writing his works. But this is almost all that we do know.
However, what is important about Shakespeare’s life is not its details but its products, the plays and the poems. For many years scholars（学者） have been trying to add a few facts about Shakespeare’s life to the small number we have already known and for an equally long time critics（批评）have been theorizing（使理论化）about the plays. Sometimes, indeed, it seems that the poetry of Shakespeare will disappear under a great number of reviews that has been written upon it.
Luckily this is not likely to happen. Shakespeare’s people have long pleased not just the English but lovers of literature everywhere, and will continue t o do so after the scholars and critics and all their works have been forgotten.
