Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?

　　Nowadays many high schools and universities require students to work on projects in groups, and all members of the group receive the same grade (mark) on the project. Do you agree or disagree that giving every member of a group the same grade is a good way to evaluate students?

       Introduction：略

　　First, every group member should receive the same grade because the main point is to assess their teamwork skills. Most university assignments assess a student’s independent study skills, but group work tests their ability to work collectively.【对比论证】That means dividing up the tasks effectively, reviewing and providing feedback and presenting all the findings in logical and coherent way. Usually, each member of the team contributes something different, buttheir contributions are all equally valid. It would be arbitrary and unfair to give some group members higher scores than others, as it is their combined work that is being assessed.【因果论证】For example, my brother once participated in a group with his classmates. He was assigned to do the data collection work which is not as eye-catching as his classmate’s role in presentation. Due to this, he just got a C+ in this subject and this is undoubtedly unacceptable since he had burned the oil and stayed up late for almost a whole week while his teammate only read the power point slides and got A.【举例论证：符合说理部分表达的信息】

　　Moreover, it is important to give each group member the same score to ensure they all take an interest in every aspect of the project. That way, students are encouraged to take responsibility for the whole project and help each other as much as possible.【因果论证】For example, if your team weredoing a project on planting flowers, your main job might be to research the habitats of specific flower. In a situation where students were [虚拟语气] gradedindividually, you would have no reason to help your team members with their work. But if the professor gave each group a collective grade, you would be motivated to assist other students with their work and learn about their fields, too.【举例论证&对比论证】
