A third of the accidents take place at back garden firework parties and about a third of the 41 are to children under the age of 13. The cost of medical treatment after firework accidents can be as much as ￡20 million a year. Martin Pearcey, 11, is one of the lucky ones: he could have been 42 in one eye. Like hundreds of others on November 5 , Martin went to his 43 park to see the fireworks display. He was with his brothers, John and Dave. “A gang of kids had taken the 44 material out of several fireworks and had put it in a pile on the ground, remembers John. “When they lit it, it went off and 45 Martin in his eye. John 46 Martin to their grandmother’s house nearby, where the eye was immediately bathed in cold water. He was then taken to hospital, where a sterilized patch was put over it. “At first he couldn’t see a thing because the eye was so swollen, says Martin’s elder sister, pat. “It was weeks before it would open 47 again. His dad agrees. “He was lucky not to lose the sight of that eye. “Little kids shouldn’t be able to get hold of fireworks, adds Pat. “I think organized 48 are much safer.

    　　Perhaps the only test score that I remember is the 55 when I was in high school．

    　　The test was the final for a course．I remember waiting anxiously as my teacher Mr．Right passed out our papers one by one．It was a rather difficult test．I heard my classmates groaning, and I could tell by the groans that the scores weren't looking good．

    　　Mr．Right put my paper on my desk．There in big red numbers, circled to draw attention, was my score, 55!

    　　I lowered my head, and covered the score up quickly．A 55 is not something that you wanted your classmates to see．

    　　“The scores were not very good, none of you passed,” Mr．Right said．“The highest score in the class was a 55．”

    　　A 55．That's me!

    　　Suddenly my sad look didn't look so bad．I had the highest score．I felt a lot better．

    　　I walked home alone that day with the low but high score．My father knew that I had a big test that day and asked me as soon as I got home, “How did you do in your test?”

    　　“I made a 55．” I said．

    　　A frown(皱眉)now stood on my father's face．I knew I had to explain immediately．“But Dad, I had the highest score in the class,” I proudly stated．I thought that explanation would make a difference．

    　　“You failed!” my father replied．

    　　“But it's the highest!” I insisted．

    　　“I don't care what scores others had, but you failed．What matters is what you do!” my father firmly said．

    　　For years, my father was always that way．It didn't matter what others did, it only mattered what I did and that I did it excellently．

    　　We often don't understand the wisdom of good parents until we ourselves stand in the parents' shoes．My father's words have carried me throughout life．

    　　In the fall of 1924 Thomas Wolfe, fresh from his courses in play－writing at Harvard, joined the eight or ten of us who were teaching English composition in New York University．I had never before seen a man so tall as he, and so ugly．I pitied him and went out of my way to help him with his work and to make him feel at home．

    　　His students soon let me know that he had no need of my protectiveness．They spoke of his ability to explain a poem in such a manner as to have them shouting with laughter or struggling to keep back their tears of his readiness to quote in detail from any poet they could name．

    Indeed, his students made so much of his powers of observation that I decided to make a little test and see for myself．My chance came one morning when the students were slowing gathering for nine o’clock classes．

    　　Upon arriving at the university that day, I found Wolfe alone in the large room which served all the English composition teacher as an office．He did not say anything when I asked him to come with me out into the hall, and he only smiled when we reached a classroom door and I told him to enter alone and look around．

    　　He stepped in, remained no more than thirty seconds and then came out．“Tell me what you see.” I said as I took his place in the room, leaving him in the hall with his back to the door．Without the least hesitation and without a single error, he gave the number of seats in the room, pointed out those which were taken by boys and those occupied by girls, named the colors each student was wearing, pointed out the Latin verb written on the blackboard, spoke of the chalk marks which the cleaner had failed to wash from the window．

    　　As I rejoined Wolfe, I was speechless with surprise．He, on the contrary, was wholly calm as he said, “The worst thing about it is that I’ll remember it all.”

    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(令人吃惊的) 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, but cheating can be prevented. Teachers 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(驱逐) a student, which will most likely hindertheir 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 to 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.
