"The pressure to achieve high grades in school seriously limits the quality of learning. An educational environment without grades would promote more genuine intellectual development."
在学校获得高分的压力严重得限制了学习的质量。一个没有分数的教育环境将会促进真正的智力发展。
Grade连续2次出现，这里不是学历、学位的意思，学历、学位应该是degree。
教育之分数
The speaker fails to see the positive effects of the pressure exerted by exams.
1. Admittedly, exams might exert some negative impact on students.
2. However, competition for high grades among students could motivate students to work hard.
Well-prepared exam questions could also help students review their lessons.

104. "It is primarily through formal education that a culture tries to perpetuate the ideas it favors and discredit the ideas it fears."
如果一个文化想要它认为好的理念永世长存而摈弃它厌恶的理念，主要是通过正规的教育。
1. I agree with the speaker with respect to formal grade-school and even high-school education, yet the degree to which our grade schools and high schools emphasize indoctrination should not be overstated.
2. Although the speaker’s assertion has some merit when it comes to the education of young people, I find it erroneous when it comes to higher education.
3. The speaker also ignores other means by which our culture perpetuates ideas it favors and discredits ideas it fears.
