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(令人吃驚的）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（驅(qū)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.

2．Whether or not to go university will probably be the biggest educational decision you ever make．After battling with student finance，deciding whether or not to take a year out can be as terrifying as deciding where to move to for the three years．
Some students will have planned their year out for months，but，for others，slipped grades may force a gap year （間隔年），either to retake exams or to apply to different universities．Others might just need time to think．Thankfully，for U．K．Students，taking a gap year remains a good option and it can be one of the most productive and fulfilling years of their life．
Whether you've planned and budgeted for a year abroad，or have made a last-minute decision to delay your first year，the options are endless．Traveling，volunteering and so on are all there for the talking，With so many things on offer，it's important to remember that 12months won't be enough time to do all of them，so decide early and work towards making whatever you want to do a reality．
Researching a gap year is exciting，and often the place to start is at home．Family and fiends can be a great source of inspiration．Your school or college might fully equipped to advise you on what to do when further education is on hold．Don't understimate（低估）the power of the Internet，either．Typing a"gap year"into a search engine might seem too obvious，but planning to travel around the world for months on your own is not appropriate．
To stay at home or go abroad is likely to be the first question you consider，but in this era of budget flights，doing both is practicable．A European inter-rail ticket（火車(chē)票）can be as little as£159．For those loving traveling，they must be on the special watchfulness for tricks in the process．Agencies can organize your year abroad for you，and often，it is more effective to make the bookings through the agencies．But flights and other forms of transport within Asia and America are much cheaper when bought in the countries rather than bought in advance．

32．According to Paragragh 2，why do other students have to take a gap year？C
A．Because they are faced with financial problems
B．Because they dislike what they are learning
C．Because they haven't got satisfying grades
D．Because they intend to hang out for a year

B．Traveling around Europe costs nothing

“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

Once there was a great Sufi saint. In his last days, someone asked him about his master. The saint said, “Since you asked, I will certainly tell you about two masters.”

Once I got lost and when I found a way and reached the village it was too late.1. At last I found a man who was trying to make a hole in a wall. I asked him if I could find a place to stay. He replied, “It will be difficult, but you can stay with me if it’s OK with you to stay with a thief.”2..Each night he would say, “I am going to work .You can rest and pray.” When he came back, I would ask him, “3.”H e would reply, “No, not tonight but tomorrow I will try again. God Willing.” He never lost hope and he was always happy. One month later, I left the thief.

When I got hopeless I would remember words of that thief - God willing. Tomorrow It is going to happen.

The second master was a dog.

Once I was going along the side of a river, I saw a dog that was very thirsty. I saw that as the dog looked into river to drink water, he saw his own image and got afraid. 4. But because the dog was too thirsty he would come hack. This happened many times but finally despite his fear, the dog jumped into water.

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

20．Cigarette smoking kills．That we know．So，manufactures made electronic cigarettes as a safer smoking choice---safer than tobacco．
E-cigarettes contain the drug nicotine like cigarettes．But they do not use tobacco．And you do not light （33）them．They are powered by battery．
So，if e-cigarettes are so safe，why have poison control centers around the United States seen an increase（34）in telephone calls about e-cigarette poisonings？The answer is children．
Most of the calls are from people worried about children who have played with the devices．In the period of one month this year，the United States Centers for Disease Control say 215people called the Center with e-cigarette concerns．More than half of these calls were for children（35）aged（age） five and younger．The devices apparently had made them sick．
Tim McAfee is director of the CDC's Office on Smoking and Health．He says the problem is regulation，meaning the U．S．Federal government does not control e-cigarettes（36）even if/even though they contain liquid nicotine．
Mr．McAfee adds that liquid nicotine is a well-known danger．
"Nicotine historically has been used as a pesticide in the United States．And that's where we have really had for many，many decades significant poisonings when people got exposed to nicotine that was in liquid solutions．"
Mr．McAfee explains that nicotine poisoning happens（37）when the substance gets into the skin，gets into the eyes or is swallowed．Even a small amount，he says，（38）canmake a person sick．Nicotine poisoning can cause stomach pain or a sense of imbalance．Headaches and seizures （突發(fā)疾病）are also common sighs of nicotine poisoning．And too much nicotine can kill．
Tim McAfee says e-cigarettes do not create the level of risk to people as tobacco products do．He notes that almost 500，000Americans die each year from cigarettes．
"So，cigarettes are the winner in that contest．And we don't really know what's going to happen with e-cigarettes．"
E-cigarettes do not contain hundreds of harmful chemicals（39）that/which are found in real cigarettes．So，the U．S．Surgeon General has suggested that e-cigarettes may be a useful tool for adults（40）trying（try） to end their tobacco use，or quit．
But McAfee worries that teenagers may think electronic cigarettes are harmless．They could become addicted，or hooked，on the nicotine and then start smoking real cigarettes．In other words，he fears that for young people fake （假裝）e-cigarettes could be a"gateway"to the real thing．
