to pass it, but how? you didnt even open the book the night before and you hear a voice in your head saying “cheat, cheat .” so what are you going to do, ignore it and fail or go for it? its a tough decision many students must make.most young people believe that cheating is wrong. however, they have cheated at least once in their high school years. so, why do they do it? are they too lazy to study? perhaps, its not as simple as that. according to some experts, one main reason why students cheat is that they see their friends get away with it. its an easy way out. they avoid embarrassment and their parents anger for not doing well in an exam. another reason is that students think its ok to cheat if the subject isnt important for their future career. whats more, most students have to put up with the pressure of getting into university. they need to get good marks to carry on with their studies. this means that there will always be students who will do anything for a better mark.it has never been easier to cheat than it is today. with all the technology available, students neednt cheat by looking over their shoulders anymore. they use mobile phones to send answers to each other during a test. there is also the internet. with hundreds of websites, students dont have to worry because they can find lots of material which they can copy and use in projects. there are even tips on the art of cheating in exams.obviously, if you get caught cheating, you fail the exam or the subject. but it doesnt really matter whether you get caught or not. whats important is that its wrong. you mustnt cheat because cheating is a lie. it deceives (欺骗) people into thinking you know more than you actually do. how can you be proud of something you have achieved through cheating? in the end, its not about deceiving your teachers and your parents, but about fooling yourself that you can do something you really cant.29. the tough decision that many students have to make before an exam is .a. how to cheat b. what to do if they failc. whether to cheat or not d. how to keep calm30. according to some experts, which is one of the reasons that make students decide to cheat?a. they think the subject is important enough for their future.b. with all the technology available, they find it easy to cheat.c. they will be made fun of by their friends if they dont cheat.d. they suffer from great pressure of carrying on with their studies.31. the worst thing about cheating is that _. a. you can get caught and failb. you cheat others and yourself c. you give others a bad impression d. your teacher will inform your parents32. what is the text mainly about?a. cheating can be explained but not excused.b. students have found new ways to cheatc. students cheat to get into university.d. cheating is a social and psychological problemdbear farming is a cruel practice that is still allowed only in china, korea and vietnam. these farms mainly extract the bearsbile(胆汁)that are used in traditional medicine or for health-care products like shampoo(洗发香波). this practice is not necessary because there are chemical products that work the same as the bears juice. to remove this liquid the animals have a painful process sometimes as often as twice a day, causing them major stress that affects their natural development.not only is the process of taking the stomach juices from the animals very painful, but also their living conditions are inhumane. bears are put in tiny cages where sometimes they cant turn around or stand. they spend all their time in the cages. before bears are old enough to produce enough juices to make the business successful, the cubs(幼兽)are trained to entertain tourists. sometimes they are beaten and forced to learn the tricks.the wspa(world society for the protection of animals), an organization recognized by the united nations, fights against cruelty towards animals. they report that vietnam has taken a huge step ahead by signing an agreement that promises to get rid of these bear farms. the vietnamese government together with a wspa committee will make sure that the goal is reached successfully.leah garces, the campaign director for wspa states that this might mark “the beginning of the end of the bear farming industry”. wspa has been trying for many years to get rid of this industry completely.the agreement not only makes sure that bear farms are not allowed, but also stops people from capturing bears and putting them in captivity. in addition to this, the vietnamese government is going to build a bear rescue centre in the cat tien national park.33. whats the writers purpose of writing the passage?a. to tell us bear farming is a common practice.b. to tell us bear farming is allowed in china, korea and vietnam.c. to tell us people are taking measures to protect bears.d. to tell us the bears stomach juices will no longer used in traditional medicine.34. what can we infer from the passage?a. bears will no longer be killed for their bile.b. in the near future, china may also pass some laws to forbid bear farming.c. the process of taking the bile from bears is very successful.d. bears can live in the wild before they are old enough.35. which of the following statements is true?a. bears are usually killed for their furs and meat.b. the owners of bear farms will be fined heavily according to the vietnamese government.c. we can use certain chemical products to take the place of bears stomach juices used in traditional medicine.d. the bears in the bear farms have good living conditions.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
