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. 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, which opens a doorway for even more methods of cheating to be born.
There are countless opinions on whether or not cheating can be justified. Students often rationalize their cheating by claiming they forgot to look over the material or did not understand what the teacher was saying. Some other reasons students believe cheating is justified are their heavy workloads and they are struggling to find time for school, sports and etc. The majority of students who think cheating is acceptable may believe the reason for this is that there is not enough time given for assignments, or that the information is too much for the course.
It may be difficult to accomplish, but cheating can be prevented. Teachers and professors have tried many options to stop cheating, from simply spreading test-takers out in a room, to expelling（驱逐）a student. 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 to avoid cheating is to create many different kinds of the same 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. This problem is spreading throughout America; with everyone's help, it can be stopped.
1.What does the underlined word “justified” probably mean in this passage?
A. reasonable B. necessary
C. praiseworthy D. preventable
2.The reason that is given by most students who think cheating is understandable is that _____.
A. they don't understand their teachers' words
B. they bury themselves in a lot of homework
C. they don't have enough time to complete the study tasks
D. they forget to look over the material
3.What is the disadvantage of scolding the cheating students according to the passage?
A. They may continue to cheat next time.
B. They may be hurt mentally.
C. They may use other cheating tactics.
D. They may get on badly with their teachers.

A long-term American study shows the importance of early education for poor children. The study is known as the Abecedarian Project. It involved more than one-hundred young children from poor families in North Carolina.
Half of the children attended an all-day program at a high-quality child-care center. The center offered educational, health and social programs. Children took part in games and activities to increase their thinking and language skills and social and emotional development. The program 
also included health foods for the children.
The children attended the program from when they were a few weeks old until the age of five years. The other group of children did not attend the child-care center. After the age of five, both groups attended public school.
Researchers compared the two groups of children. When they were babies, both groups had similar results in tests for mental and physical skills. However, from the age of eighteen months, the children in the educational child-care program did much better in tests.
The researchers tested the children again when they were twelve and fifteen years old. The tests found that the children who had been in the child-care center continued to have higher average test results. These children did much better on tests of reading and mathematics.
A few years ago, organizers of the Abecedarian Project tested the students again. At the time, each student was twenty-one years old. They were tested for thinking and educational ability, employment, parenting and social skills. The researchers found that the young adults who had the early education still did better in reading and mathematics tests. They were more than two times as likely to be attending college or to have completed college. In addition, the children who received early education were older on average, when their first child was born.
The study offers more evidence that learning during the first months and years of life is important for all later development.
The researchers of the Abecedarian Project believe their study shows a need for lawmakers to spend money on public early education. They believe these kinds of programs could reduce the number of children who do not complete school and are unemployed.
1.The Abecedarian Project has lasted _______.
A. almost one year
B. about five years
C. more than 20 years
D. no more than 15 years
2.Those who had been in the child-care center _______ compared with those who hadn't.
A. have their children at later ages
B. get more help from other people
C. have no parenting or social skills
D. are poorer at reading and mathematics
3.What don't we know about the Abecedarian Project after reading the text?
A. What the children learned at the child-care center.
B. How important early education is for poor children.
C. How many children are involved in the Abecedarian Project.
D. Whether lawmakers will spend money on public early education.
4.The study of the Abecedarian Project shows that early education _______.
A. costs a lot of money
B. leads to a lower birthrate
C. can improve the life of poor children
D. is not important for later development

A “smart drug” taken by students to improve their performance really does work, scientists have found. The drug modafinil is currently used to treat sleep disorder, but it is widely used off-label by students to help them revise for exams or focus on long essays.
Until now, there has been a lack of clear evidence over whether it can actually help concentration and alertness. But a new analysis of the research showed it does improve planning and decision making, flexibility, learning and memory, and even creativity. The findings raise serious ethical(道德的) questions about whether modafinil should be “classified, tolerated or condemned”, scientists said. Professor Guy Goodwin, President of the European College said: “It’s the first real example of a ‘smart drug’, which can really help, for example, with exam preparation.” Previous ethical discussions around smart drugs assumed(假定) major effects of the drugs before it was clear that there were any, he added. He continued “If correct, the latest news means the ethical debate(争论) is real: how should we classify, tolerate or condemn a drug that improves human performance?”
A fifth of university students across the country claim to have taken smart drugs, according to surveys by student newspaper The Tab . And the use of modafinil is most widespread at Oxford University, where a quarter of students have reported to have used it. Over the years, universities have discussed how best to respond to the use of smart drugs, and some have suggested Olympic-style doping tests for students sitting exams.
Professor Goodwin said there should be a society-wide debate on how modafinil should be permitted officially and regulated(管理), as well as what universities should do about its use. He said: “Regulation has been and remains uncertain. We cannot know either if demand for modafinil in the same societies will actually be significant, whether society will be more accepting and how regulation will then be made.”
1.Who are likely to turn to the “smart drug” modafinil ?
A. Children who lack strength.
B. Patients who have a heart disease.
C. Old people who have poor sight.
D. Students who have poor memory.
2.Why does the writer refer to the students of Oxford University?
A. To show smart drugs enjoy popularity among college students.
B. To prove Oxford University students suffer from a heavy load.
C. To tell us smarts drugs use have spread to England.
D. To explain why Oxford University students are clever.
3.What does Professor Goodwin think of “smart drug” modafinil?
A. Our society should accept the use of modafinil.
B. Regulation on modafinil remains to be discussed.
C. Modafinil used as a “smart drug” should be stopped.
D. Regulation on modafinil being used as a “smart drug” is necessary.
4.What is the topic of passage?
A. “Smart drugs” have side effects.
B. A “Smart drug” raises ethical questions.
C. Students can’t go without “smart drugs”.
D. A more effective “smart drags” should be developed.

Much meaning can be conveyed clearly with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak.
1.In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not for too long. And if he sensed that you are staring at him, he may feel uncomfortable.
The same is true in our daily life. If you are stared at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down to see if there is anything wrong with you. 2.. Eyes do speak, right？
Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive.3.. If a man stares at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to look away from her, his intentions are obvious. He wishes to attract her attention, and let her know that he is admiring her.
However, when two persons are engaged in a conversation, the speaker will only look into the listener’s eyes from time to time to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking.4.If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking as if he trying to control you, you will feel awkward.
