对成绩提申诉★★★★★
学生
I would like to ask about my essay mark, and I would like to ask for the rule, not to argue with you in your office.
我想问一下我那篇作文的分数。我想按规矩来，而不是在您办公室里争。
老师
Then tell me what you expected, and why.
那你说说你本来期望多少，为什么。
学生
I followed the structure you gave us, but I lost most of the marks on the argument. I think the argument was my own position, not a summary of other people.
结构我是按您给的框架写的，但分主要扣在论证上。我觉得那一段是我自己的观点，不是复述。
老师
That is exactly the part that is hard to grade. Two of us read it and disagreed.
这恰恰是最难判的那一部分。我们两个人读了，意见不一致。
学生
Then may I see the written comments, and the rubric you used?
那我能看一下书面评语和你们用的评分表吗？
老师
You may. And if the rubric was used in different ways for different people, I will not defend it.
可以。如果评分表对不同的人用得不一样，我不会护着它。
学生
That is all I hoped for. I am not asking for a higher mark; I am asking for the same standard on both papers.
这正是我希望的。我不是要一个更高的分，我是要两份卷子用同一个标准。
老师
Fair. Send me your request in writing by Friday, and I will put it to the second reader.
合理。周五前把你的请求写成书面的给我，我转给第二位评阅人。
