Cheating (欺骗) can happen in a lot of different ways. When people cheat, it’s not 36 to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who were the true 37 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 38 the material and it won’t help on the next test — 39 the person cheats again.
Some people lose 40 for cheaters and think less of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not 41 getting 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 42 and they want to get good grades without spending the time studying. Other kids might feel like they can’t pass the test without cheating. Even when there seems to be a “good 43 ” for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.
If you are sick or worried about something the night before and can’t study, it will 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 44 swimming and school.
A kid who thinks cheating is the 45 way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so that they can find some ways together. Talking about these problems and working them out will feel better than cheating. 36. A. kind 37. A. lovers
B. fair
C. polite
D. common
B. reporters C. leaders D. winners
38. A. considering 39. A. unless 40. A. control
B. knowing
C. collecting
D. using
B. if
C. because
D. though
D. interest
B. support
C. respect
41. A. successfully 42. A. lazy 43. A. chance 44. A. choose 45. A. basic
B. clearly C. simply C. lonely
D. really D. envy
D. gift D. balance
B. wealthy
B. reason
C. way C. match
B. connect
B. safe C. only D. final
