London—Lazy students can now give up on work altogether as two Oxford University students have made scores of A-grade essays(论文)on the website for students to copy.

The essays are on the new website,“revise.it.”

The website includes an “Essay Lab”designed to make cheating(舞弊)as effective and effortless as possible.

Its homepage announces to surfers(网上冲浪者):“The revise.it Essay Lab is a bank of hundreds of A-Level essays covering popular topics.”

“Next time you are asked to write an essay,why not see what we have on the subject—if you are in a lazy state of mind you can even use our guide to writing the essays and then just hand them in.”

Nick Rose and Jordan Mayo,both 19 and first from Manchester,spent much of their first year as students at the university setting up the website.There is no charge for downloading the essays.

“I have never been very good at essay writing,”Rose admitted.“We don’t see essay bank as a cheating way.It’s a surprising valuable resource.You can learn a lot by reading other people’s work on the subject.”

Among other tips,the website suggests inventing important speeches to give essays extra weight:“Popular people to quote(引用)are Douglass Hurd or Disraeli.”

Hurd was a foreign secretary in the 1980s and Disraeli was a 19th century prime minister.

Teachers are expressing their opinions by e-mail that they are angry about the website that “encourages students to cheat”,but students disagree.

According to Rose:“Exams are a fight.It’s us against them.”

Sports shoes that work out whether their owner has done enough exercise to promise time in front of the television have been devised in the UK.
The shoes- named Square Eyes- contain an electronic pressure sensor and a tiny computer chip to record how many steps the wearer has taken in a day. A wireless transmitter (发射器) passes the information to a receiver connected to a television, and this decides how much evening viewing time the wearer deserves(应得), based on the day's efforts.
The design was inspired by a desire to fight against the rapidly ballooning waistlines among British teenagers, says Gillian Swan, who developed Square Eyes as a final year design project at Brunel University in London, UK. "We looked at current issues and childhood overweight really stood out," she says. "And I wanted to tackle that with my design."
Once a child has used up their daily allowance gained through exercise, the television automatically (自动地) switches off. And further time in front of the TV can only be earned through more steps. Swan calculated how exercise should translate to television time using the recommended daily amounts of both. Health experts suggest that a child take 12,000 steps each day and watch no more than two hours of television. So, every 100 steps recorded by the Square Eyes shoes equals exactly one minute of TV time.
Existing pedometers(计步器) normally clip onto a belt or slip into a pocket and keep count of steps by measuring sudden movement. Swan says these can be easily tricked into recording steps through shaking. But her shoe has been built to be harder for lazy teenagers to cheat. "It is possible, but it would be a lot of effort," she says. "That was one of my main design considerations."
【小题1】According to Swan, the purpose of her design project is to _____.

A.keep a record of the steps of the wearer.
B.deal with overweight among teenagers.
C.enable children to resist (抵制) the attraction of TV.
D.prevent children from being tricked by TV programs.
【小题2】Which of the following is true of Square Eyes shoes?
A.They control a child's evening TV viewing time.
B.They determine a child's daily pocket money.
C.They have raised the hot issue of overweight.
D.They contain information of the receiver.
【小题3】Compared with other similar products, the new design ___.
A.sends teenagers' health data(数据) to the receiver.
B.counts the wearer's steps through shaking.
C.records the sudden movement of the wearer.
D.make it difficult for lazy teenagers to cheat
【小题4】Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A.Smart Shoes Stop Childhood Overweight
B.Smart Shoes Guarantee More Exercise
C.Smart Shoes Measure Time of Exercise
D.Smart Shoes Decide on Television Time
