  Cheating can happen in a lot of different ways.When people cheat, it’s not fair to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who were the true winners of a game.

  Many people like the action of cheating.It makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test.But it doesn’t solve the problem of not knowing the material and it won’t help in the next test-unless the person cheats again.

  Some people lose respect for cheaters and think nothing of them.The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning that good grade.And, if they get caught cheating, they will be in trouble at school, and maybe at home, too.

  Some kids cheat because they’re busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending time studying.Other kids might feel like they can’t pass the test without cheating.Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.

  If you were sick or upset about something the night before and couldn’t study, it would be better to talk with the teacher about this.And if you don’t have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with your parents about how to balance swimming and school.

  A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some solutions together.Talking about these problems and working them out will feel better than cheating.

阅读理解:

  Suppose we built a robot(机器人)to explore the planet Mars.We provide the robot with seeing detectors(探测器)to keep it away from danger.It is powered entirely by the sun.Should we program the robot to be equally active at all times?No.The robot would be using up energy at a time when it was not receiving any.So we would probably program it to stop its activity at night and to wake up at dawn the next morning.

  According to the evolutionary(进化的)theory of sleep, evolution equipped us with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking for the same reason.The theory does not deny(否认)that sleep provides some important restorative functions(恢复功能).It merely says that evolution has programmed us to perform those functions at a time when activity would be inefficient and possibly dangerous.However, sleep protects us only from the sort of trouble we might walk into; it does not protect us from trouble that comes looking for us.So we sleep well when we are in a familiar, safe place, but we sleep lightly, if at all, when we fear that bears will nose into the tent.

  The evolutionary theory explains the differences in sleep among creatures.Why do eats, for instance, sleep so much, while horses sleep so little?Surely cats do not need five times as much repair and restoration as horses do.But cats can afford to have long periods of inactivity because they spend little time eating and are unlikely to be attacked while they sleep.Horses must spend almost all their waking hours eating, because what they eat is very low in energy value.Moreover, they cannot afford to sleep too long or too deeply, because their survival(生存)depends on their ability to run away from attackers.

(1)

The author uses the example of the robot in space exploration to tell us ________.

[  ]

A.

the differences between robots and men

B.

the reason why men need to sleep

C.

about the need for robots to save power

about the danger of men working at night

(2)

Evolution has programmed man to sleep at night chiefly to help him ________.

[  ]

A.

keep up a regular pattern of life

B.

prevent trouble that comes looking for him

C.

avoid danger and inefficient labour

D.

restore his bodily functions

(3)

According to the author, we cannot sleep well when we ________.

[  ]

A.

are worrying about our safety

B.

are overworked

C.

are in a tent

D.

are away from home

(4)

Cats sleep much more than horses do partly because cats ________.

[  ]

A.

need more time for restoration

B.

are unlikely to be attackers

C.

axe more active than homes when they are awake

D.

spend less time eating to get enough energy

(5)

Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?

[  ]

A.

Evolution has equipped all creatures with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking.

B.

The study of sleep is an important part of the evolutionary theory.

C.

Sleeping patterns must be taken into consideration in the designing of robots.

D.

The sleeping pattern of a living creature is determined by the food it eats.

  Several years ago, my parents, my wife, my son and I ate at one of those restaurants where the menu is written on a blackboard.After a wonderful dinner, the waiter set the check in the middle of the table.That’s when it happened:my father did not reach for the check.

  Conversation continued.Finally I realized that I should pick up the check!After hundreds of restaurant meals with my parents, after a lifetime of thinking of my father as the one with dollars, it had all changed.I reached for the check, and my view of myself suddenly changed.I was an adult.I was no longer a kid.

  Some people mark off(区分)their lives in years, I measure mine in small events.I didn’t become a young man at a particular age, like 16, but rather when a kid who wandered in the streets called me “mister.” These events in my life are called “milestones”(里程碑)

  There have been other milestones.The cops(policemen)of my youth always seemed big, even huge, and of course they were older than I was.Then one day they were suddenly realized that all the football players in the game I was watching were younger than I was.They were just big kids.With that milestone gone was the dream that someday, maybe I, too, could be a football player.Without ever having reached the hill, I was over it.

  I never thought that I would fall asleep in front of the TV set as my father did.Now it’s what I do best.I never thought that I would go to the beach and not swim, yet I spent all of August at the shore and never once went into the ocean.I never thought that I would appreciate opera, but now the combination of voice and orchestra attract me.I never thought that I would prefer to stay home in the evenings, but now I find myself passing up parties.I used to think that people who watched birds were strange, but this summer I fond myself watching them, and maybe I’ll get a book on the subject.I feel a strong desire for a religious belief that I never thought I’d want, feel close to my ancestors(祖先)long gone, and echo my father in arguments with my son.I still lose…

  One day I bought a house.One day-what a day!–I became a father, and not too long after that I picked up the check for my own father.I thought then it was a milestone for me.One day, when I was a little older, I realized it was one for him, too, another milestone.

阅读理解:

  Taiwan police cannot decide whether to treat it as an extremely clever act of stealing or an even cleverer cheat(诈骗).Either way, it could be the perfect crime(犯罪),because the criminals are birds homing pigeons!

  The crime begins with a telephone message to the owner of a stolen car:if you want the car back, pay up.Then, the car owner is directed to a park, told where to find a bird cage and how to attach money to the neck of the pigeon inside.Carrying the money in a tiny bag, the pigeon flies off.

  There have been at least-four such pigeon pick-ups in Changwa.What at first seemed like the work of a clever stay-at-home car thief, however, may in fact be the work of an even lazier and more inventive criminal mind-one that avoids(避免)not only collecting money but going out to steal the car in the first place.Police officer Chen says that the criminal probably has pulled a double trick:he gets money for things he cannot possibly return.Instead of stealing cars, he lets someone else do it and then waits for the car-owner to place an ad(启事)in the newspaper asking for help.

  The theory is supported by the fact that, so far, none of the stolen cars have been returned.Also, the amount of money demanded under 3,000 Taiwanese dollars seems too little for a car worth many times more.

  Demands for pigeon-delivered money stopped as soon as the press reported the story.And even if they start again, Chen holds little hope of catching the criminal.“We have more important things to do,” he said.

(1)

After the car owner received a phone call, he ________.

[  ]

A.

went to a certain pigeon and put some money in the bag it carded

B.

gave the money to the thief and had his car back in a park

C.

sent some money to the thief by mail

D.

told the press about it

(2)

The “lazier and more inventive” criminal refers to ________.

[  ]

A.

the car thief who stays at home

B.

one of those who put the ads in the paper

C.

one of the policemen is Changwa

D.

the owner of the pigeons

(3)

The writer mentions the fact that “none of the stolen cars have been returned” to show ________.

[  ]

A.

how easily people get fooled by criminals

B.

what Chen thinks might be correct

C.

the thief is extremely clever

D.

the money paid is too little

(4)

The underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refers to ________.

[  ]

A.

criminals

B.

pigeons

C.

the stolen cars

D.

demands for money

(5)

We may infer from the text that the criminal knows how to reach the car owners because ________.

[  ]

A.

he reads the ads in the newspaper

B.

he lives in the same neighborhood

C.

he has seen the car owners in the park

D.

he has trained the pigeons to follow them
