4.The British Medical Journal recently featured a strong response to what was judged an inappropriately merciful reaction by a medical school to a student cheating in an examination.Although we have insufficient reliable data about the extent of this phenomenon,its prevention,or its effective management,much can be concluded and acted upon on the basis of common sense.
There is general agreement that there should be zero tolerance of cheating in a profession based on trust and one on which human lives depend.It is reasonable to assume that cheaters in medical school will be more likely than others to continue to act dishonestly with patients,colleagues,and government.
The behaviors under question are multifactorial in origin.There are familial(家庭的),religious,and cultural values that are acquired long before medical school.For example,countries,cultures,and subcultures exist where bribes and dishonest behaviour are very normal.There are secondary schools in which neither staff nor students tolerate cheating and others where cheating is common;there are homes which cultivate young people with high standards of moral behaviour and otherswhich leave moral training to the harmful influence of television and the market place.
Medical schools reflect society and cannot be expected to remedy all the ills of a society.The selection process of medical students might be expected to favour applicants with positive moral behaviour.Medical schools should be the major focus of attention for cultivating future doctors with moral sensitivity.Unfortunately there are troubling data that suggest that during medical school the moral behaviour of medical students does not necessarily improve; indeed,moral development may actually stop or even regress(倒退).
It is critical that the academic and clinical leaders of the institution set a personal example on moral behaviour.Medical schools must do something to make sure that their students are expected to be clear from day one.The development of a school's culture of moral behaviour requires cooperation with the students in which they play an active role in its creation and developing.Moreover,the school's examination system and general treatment of students must be fair.Finally,the treatment of infractions must be firm,fair,transparent(透明的).

63.What does the author say about cheating in medical schools?D
A.Extensive research has been done about this phenomenon.
B.We have sufficient data to prove that prevention is possible.
C.We know that this phenomenon exists in every medical school.
D.We still need more reliable data to know how serious it is.
64.According to the author,it is important to prevent cheating in medical schools becauseA.
A.the medical profession is based on trust.
B.there is zero tolerance of cheating in medicine
C.the medical profession depends on the government.
D.cheating exists extensively in medical schools.
65.Which of the following statements will the author probably agree with?C
A.Medical schools should make a less competitive environment for students.
B.Outstanding people should create a set of moral standards to be followed.
C.Medical students should be positive in creating and preserving moral behavior
D.We should focus on the cause-and-effect of the cheating in exams in medical schools.
66.Which of the following can be implied from the passage?B
A.It makes little sense to talk about medical school student cheating in exams.
B.Medical schools haven't been doing well to help students develop morally.
C.Cheating in exams is tolerable outride of medical school circle.
D.Elimination of exams helps cultivate healthier characters of medical school students.

7.There are thousands of coral reefs(珊瑚礁) in the world.Unfortunately,however,they are now in serious danger.More than one-third are in such bad shape that they could die within ten years.(16)BHere are the three main causes discovered.

A.Global warming is another reason.
B.Many might not even last that long!
