Cheating is nothing new. But today, educators and administrators are fmding 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 than their more idealistic predecessors. While 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 had 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 mined. 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 are 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 individual who’s doing it," he said. "That’s too easy an answer. We’ve got to start looking at the system." [br] It can be inferred from the passage that
选项
A、the 1960s vision of changing the world led students to conform
B、the educational system and its administrators are partly to blame for the rise in cheating
C、punishment for cheaters has always been severe in this country
D、the student who cheats must be at fault because the system is correct
答案
B
解析
推理判断题。B项是说教育制度和教育管理人员对作弊现象趋升负有一定责任。这在第三段提到两个人的不同观点:爱德华·温认为学生作弊现象增加是因为教学管理人员和教师措施不山:而德怀特·休伯则认为原因在于考试方法和评判标准不当,是教育制度的问题。因此说,选项B为最佳答案。文章第一段第二句话说are less likely to be punished对作弊者的惩罚可能性(比过去)减小,从这一信息中可以把C说的“对作弊者的惩罚一直很严厉”排除;从第二段中得知60年代学生的理想是改变世界,而现在是去实践成功,不是A项所
