Professor Bilveer Singh grades hundreds of papers each year.In every group,he says,there are always a few that are less than original.Nowadays,the suspect source is usually the Internet.“Ive caught students quoting paragraph after paragraph,”says Singh.“But they are getting smarter.”Hence the rise of A and A or“alteration and amendment”:cutting a sentence here,pasting(粘粘贴)a phrase there,all the while using the on-screen terms to replace complicated words with age-appropriate ones.For all its benefits,the rise of technology in the classroom has made it far easier for students to cheatand get away with it.In the pre-wired days,plagiarism meant carefully copying paragraphs out of the books;today,kids can simply find the text,copy and paste a much simpler and neater process.The practice is becoming popular around the globe.According to a survey by the Josephson Institute for Ethics,74%of U.S.high-schoolstudents cheated in 2002.(“And those are just the ones admitting it.”says the Institutes Terry Harrison.)Fortunately,the same technology that makes it so easy for students to cheat is aiding teachers in catching them.The most popular antiplagiarism service,T,compares a students term paper with everything on the Internet,as well as to Ts own database of papers.(Of course,as many teachers know,Google,another well-known search engine company,works pretty well,too.)T has users in 51 countries;in Britain,nearly all 700 public universities have signed up for the service.Educators are trying to upgrade their inclass measures as well.Experts say teachers should make it more difficult for students to“cut and paste”by changing the assignment every year and requiring more analysis thandescription.And teachers shouldnt assume that kids even know what plagiarism is,as many just arent taught how to source or reference properly.But even when they know better,kids might do the same under the heavy academic pressure and time limits they face.Critics blame parents and educators for emphasizing results over academic honesty.1.The“A and A”phenomenon mentioned in paragraph 1 summarizes_ A.the progress of the digital age B.the application of the Internet C.the rise of computer technology D.the new features of cheating in schools 2.The expression“the pre-wired days”in paragraph 2 refers to the time before _.A.electricity was used B.the computer was widely used C.the wire was invented D.the radio and television came into being 3.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.The rise of computer technology makes it easier to cheat in the classroom.B.Teachers are trying to find new measures to check cheating in schools.C.Computer technology can be used to find out the cheating of students.D.Teachers are praised for their emphasis on students academic results.4.The last two paragraphs are mainly concerned with _ A.the importance of academic honesty B.some measures to fight against plagiarism C.some well-known search engine companies D.experts suggestions on anti-plagiarism 比比尔维尔辛格教授每年都要辛格教授每年都要批改批改几百份几百份论文。他文。他说，在每一，在每一组中，中，总会有一会有一些缺少些缺少原原创。现在，在，可疑的来源可疑的来源通常是互通常是互联网。辛格网。辛格说：“我我发现学生学生们一一段又一段段又一段地地引用引用。”“”“但他但他们正正变得越来越得越来越聪明。明。“因此因此的的A和和A的增加或的增加或“变更和修改更和修改”:这里剪切一个句子里剪切一个句子,那里粘那里粘贴一个短一个短语,同同时使用使用适适龄的的荧屏屏术语来取代来取代复复杂的的单词。尽管它尽管它带来了来了诸多多好好处，但在，但在课堂上，技堂上，技术的的兴起起让学生学生们更容易作弊更容易作弊并并侥幸逃脱幸逃脱。在。在前前连线时代代，剽窃剽窃意味着要小心地将段落从意味着要小心地将段落从书中复制出来中复制出来;今今天，孩子天，孩子们可以可以简单地找到文本、复制和粘地找到文本、复制和粘贴一个更一个更简单、更更简洁的的过程。程。这种种做法做法在全球范在全球范围内内流行起来流行起来。根据。根据约瑟夫森道德研究所的一瑟夫森道德研究所的一项调查，在在2002年，年，74%的美国高中生作弊。（的美国高中生作弊。（“而那些只是承而那些只是承认这一点的人。一点的人。”该研究所的研究所的Terry Harrison说。）。）幸运的是幸运的是，使得学生，使得学生们很容易作弊同很容易作弊同样的技的技术，这有助于有助于老老师们抓住他抓住他们。最受最受欢迎的迎的反剽窃反剽窃服服务，Turnitin。将学生的学期。将学生的学期论文与互文与互联网上的所有网上的所有东西西进行比行比较，以及，以及T自己的自己的论文数据文数据库。（当然，正如。（当然，正如许多教多教师所所知道的那知道的那样，另一家知名的搜索引擎公司谷歌也表，另一家知名的搜索引擎公司谷歌也表现得相当不得相当不错。）。）T拥有有51个国家的用个国家的用户;在英国，几乎所有在英国，几乎所有700所公立大学都所公立大学都报名名参加参加了了这项服服务。这教育工作者也在努力教育工作者也在努力升升级他他们的的课中措施中措施。专家家们说，老老师们应该让学生学生们每年都要通每年都要通过改改变任任务来阻止来阻止“剪切和粘剪切和粘贴”，并且要，并且要求更多的分析而不是描述。老求更多的分析而不是描述。老师们不不应该假假设孩子孩子们甚至知道剽窃是什么，甚至知道剽窃是什么，因因为很多人只是不知道如何正确地很多人只是不知道如何正确地获取或引用取或引用。但即使他。但即使他们知道得更好，孩知道得更好，孩子子们也会在他也会在他们面面临的沉重的学的沉重的学术压力和力和时间限制下做同限制下做同样的事情。的事情。批批评人人士士指指责家家长和教育工作者和教育工作者强调结果而不是果而不是学学术上的上的诚实。DBDB
