A student walks into his first class and realizes he forgot all about the midterm exam. He knows he needs to bring his grades up, and getting a zero will make it nearly impossible. He quickly jots down some notes and shoves them under his lap hoping it will help him pass. Cheating is a major concern in all academic environments. Students are creating new and more outrageous(令人吃惊的)ways of cheating every day: some claim that certain accounts of cheating can be justified, but overall it can always be prevented.
Cheating has been around forever, and millions of ways to cheat have been fashioned. Copying homework and cheat sheets are some of the most basic ways students in all education levels have cheated. Some students think nothing about writing a few answers on their hand, in a gum wrapper, or boldly using a study guide to cheat. Desperate students have even gone as far as to steal the test or scan in bottle wrappers and put answers into the nutrition label. The internet has now become available in almost every location. Computers can be accessed at school, at home, and now even on cell phones. This opens a doorway for even more methods of cheating to be born.
There are countless opinions on whether or not cheating can be justified. The truth is this behavior will always be a matter of opinion with each scenario of cheating. Students often rationalize their cheating by claiming they forgot to look over the material or did not understand what the teacher or professor was saying. Some may counter these arguments by saying that the student could have set reminders or asked the teacher to explain the material before the day of the test. Some other reasons students believe cheating is justified are their heavy workloads and trying to find time for school, sports, friends, and family. This may be true in certain instances, however, all students have these problems, and it is unfair to the students refrain(制止) from cheating when the student who is dishonest receives a better grade. The majority of students who think cheating is acceptable may believe the reason for this is that sometimes students are unaware they are cheating, there is not enough time given for assignments, or that the information is too much for the course.
It may be difficult to accomplish, hut cheating can be prevented. 1'eachers and professors have tried many options to stop cheating. These options can range anywhere from simply spreading test-takers out in a room, to expelling(驱逐)a student, which will most likely hinder their plans of getting into another college. One simple way to fix the problem is to scold the student when caught. They may be so scared or embarrassed that they never do it again. This is a risky way to prevent cheating in some cases, however, because it can possibly damage self-esteem. Another simple way 10 avoid cheating is to create many different kinds of the same test. This prohibits students from getting the answers off of a neighbor's test, but students still have the option of using other cheating tactics.
There may be a million ways to cheat and get away with it, but there are few times, if any, that it is justified. Cheating never has to be a necessity and is never worth compromising morals and losing years worth of working towards a degree. This problem is spreading throughout America; with everyone's help, it can be stopped.

“Folk singers are more like poets than singers,” Li Yahe, a music businessman, once told China Youth Daily.
That saying perfectly describes Zhang Lei, the 34-year-old champion of the fourth “Voice of China” singing competition, which ended on Oct 7.
Critics thought Zhang’s success as a victory for folk singers. The Voice of China used to attach great importance to singing skills and vocal techniques, which are not necessarily what folk singers are good at. “Folk songs are more about emotions and storytelling,” said Li.
Folk is one of the oldest musical styles. It dates back to ancient times, when people sang about their everyday lives and the society around them.
A powerful comeback
Folk music became popular again in the Western world in the 1960s. During social revolutions, many young Westerners turned to the simple rhythms of folk. Pioneers included US singer Bob Dylan, whose songs are reflections of some social issues like the Vietnam War. Singers at that time used traditional folk instruments like the banjo, the upright bass, the mandolin and the piano.
In the late 1970s, folk music was introduced to Taiwan. The rise of singers like Lo Tayu and Chyi Yu popularized folk music, particularly among young Chinese people.
At that time, folk tunes were based on simple song structures, with pleasant chord progression and pretty lyrics, just like during old times. But they focused more on the dreams and sorrow of youth than on politics.
This continued to be the case when the folk “wave” swept Chinese mainland in the 1990s.
Folk pioneers
Sadly, it didn’t last long in China. Folk gave way to pop in the late 1990s, when people started living more fast-paced lives. But that didn’t mean folk music had disappeared from the music world entirely.
“The drop in the popularity of folk songs is because the business mode of the music industry is outdated, not because of the music itself,” folk singer Song Ke once said.
He was right. Recent years have seen folk songs gaining popularity, with the appearance of singers like Li Jian and Song Dongye.
“The popularity of the Internet has shocked the traditional profit model in music industry,” Lu Zhongqiang, manager of 13-Month, a music recording and publishing company, told Tencent Entertainment.
“Not-so-well-known music starts showing its strength when the production of mainstream music is declining,” he added.
1.Which would be the best title of the passage?
A. The History of Folk Music. B. Folk Music Pioneers
C. The Folk Music Industry. D. The Voice of China
2.The underlined world “it” in the last but four paragraph means________.
A. the popularity of folk music.
B. the focus of folk music.
C. the tradition of folk pioneers.
D. the new model of pop music.
3.Which statement is true according to the passage?
A. The Voice of China is very popular among young Chinese people.
B. Folk music once was a way to voice opinions about social issues.
C. Folk songs are more about expressing emotions than storytelling.
D. Outdated music mode is what leads to the decline of folk songs.
4.Which word can best describe the attitude of Lu Zhongqiang towards folk music?
A. Objective B. Confident.
C. Critical. D. Worried

One afternoon I was driving along the narrow dirt road. Ahead of me was a small red car with two people in the front seats. You can’t go very fast on a dirt road so I was driving carefully after it.
As we did, I began to watch the car in front of me. The driver was a middle-aged man with thinning hair, and beside him sat a woman with long, wavy blond hair. I could see the man’s face because he kept turning and talking and talking to the woman, but I couldn’t see her face because she never turned to look at him and answer.
As we drove along, the man turned again and again, talking to the woman. He leaned(靠) toward her and he smiled. But she sat without movement or response, staring straight ahead. She never once looked in his direction, and I wondered why.
I supposed of course that they were fighting. The long blond hair suggested someone beautiful. I thought she might be too coldhearted, the way a beautiful woman can usually be. I thought that the man might be her husband, or her lover, and that he was pleading with her. I thought she was turning cold to him: perhaps she was ending things completely, and he was trying to win her back.
We both slowed down to cross a little stone bridge, and once past it, on the straight, he turned again to her. I wondered then if I’d gotten it wrong. The man was definitely middle-aged, and the woman’s long, thick blond hair suggested youth. Perhaps the man was not her husband but her father. Maybe she was sitting silently still, not heartlessly. Or maybe she was weeping and unable to look at her father.
I watched them closely, trying to be sure. The man turned to her, smiling. She still did not look at him. We reached the stop sign at the end of Mount Holly Road, and the man turned once more to the blond woman. This time, at last, she turned toward him. She leaned over and licked his nose with her tongue. She was a golden retriever, a large dog used in hunting.
1.The real relationship of the two sitting in the front seats of the small red car is _______.
A. a husband and an angry wife
B. a loving father and a weeping daughter
C. a master and a big dog
D. lovers in quarrel
2.We can infer from the text that______.
A. the author followed the man out of curiosity at the very beginning
B. the man couldn’t match the woman beside him
C. the man loved the one sitting beside him very much
D. the man was a good husband or a good father
3.The underlined sentence in the text means_____.
A. he was begging her
B. he was playing with her
C. he was quarrelling with her
D. he was joking with her
4.Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. A Poor Middle-aged Man
B. An Unexpected Companion
C. A Beautiful Proud Woman
D. An Unforgettable Experience
