Cheating is nothing new. But today, education and administrations are finding that instances of academic dishonesty on the part of students have become more frequent-- and are less likely to be punished--than in the past. Cheating appears to have gained acceptance among good and poor students alike.
Why is student cheating on the rise? No one really knows. Some blame the trend on a general loosening of moral values among today’s youth. Others have attributed increased cheating to the fact that today’s youth are far more pragmatic(实际的) than their idealistic predecessors. Whereas in the late sixties and early seventies, students were filled with visions about changing the world, today’s students feel great pressure to conform and succeed. In interviews with students at high schools and colleges around the country, both young men and women said that cheating bad become easy. Some suggested they did it out of spite for teachers they did not respect. Others looked at it as a game. Only if they were caught, some said, would they feel guilty. "People are competitive," said a second-year college student named Anna, from Chicago. "There’s an underlying fear. If you don’t do well, your life is going to be ruined. The pressure is not only from parents and friends but from yourself. To achieve. To succeed. It’s almost as though we have to outdo other people to achieve our own goals."
Edward Wynne, editor of a magazine blames the rise in academic dishonesty on the schools. He claims that administrators and teachers have been too hesitant to take action. Dwight Huber, chairman of the English Department at Amarillo sees the matter differently, blaming the rise in cheating on the way students evaluated. "I would cheat if I felt I was being cheated," Mr. Huber said. He feels that as long as teachers give short-answer tests rather than essay questions and rate students by the number of facts they can memorize rather than by how well they can synthesize information, students will try to beat the system. "The concept of cheating is based on the false assumption that the system is legitimate and there is something wrong with the individuals who’s doing it," he said. "That’s too easy an answer. We’ve got to start looking at the system."
According to the passage, which of the following statements is tree?
选项
A、Punishment is an effective method of stopping cheating.
B、A change in the educational system will eliminate the need to cheat.
C、Students do not cheat on essay tests.
D、The problem of student cheating has its roots in deeper problems.
答案
D
解析
细节题。文章第二段前两句指出,作弊现象严重的原因目前尚无定论。后文进一步分析,并给出了两种可能的原因。由此可知学生作弊的原因很复杂,所以D是正确的。文章第三段只是提到学生作弊很可能是因为教育体制不合理,但并没有说教育体制的变化就一定能消除作弊现象,所以B是错的。C的表达过于绝对,A在文中没有提及。
