Cheating in the Exams
考试作弊
As the total number of people taking various examinations in China reaches millions, cheating in the examshas grown to be a serious problem. Some people may find many excuses and reasons for cheating, but I don’t see any worth of that.
在中国参加各类考试的人数已经达到了上百万人,作弊问题日益严重。许多人还为作弊找寻了诸多理由,但是我认为作弊是不值得的。
First, the punishment is severe. In all the cheating cases, a record of the offence and the penalty imposed will be ordered to be held on the student’s personal file in the academic department and will seriouslyaffect the nature of any reference issued to potential employers or other educational institutions.Second,no matter what reasons you cheat for, they can’t change the nature of cheating, which is immoral. Cheating in the exams makes no difference from pick pocketing. Maybe some students cheat for being not willing todisappoint their parents, but in fact they’ve disappointed them more deeply for their dishonesty.Fellow students also have no sympathy for those who are punished for cheating.Those who have succeeded in cheatingcan feel subsequent shame and loss of confidence because they have not given themselves a fair test of their ability and end up cheating themselves.
首先,作弊的惩罚力度是很重的。在所有的作弊事例中,所有惩罚和犯错记录都会记录到学生个人档案之中,这也将严重影响到未来雇主的用人情况,以及其他一些教育机构的招生情况。第二,无论学生作弊出于什么原因,作弊都是不对的,也是不道德的。在考试中作弊与当小偷是没有区别的,或许,许多学生作弊的原因是不想让家长失望。但事实上,他们的不诚实会让父母更加失望。学生对于作弊的同学是没有同情的。那些成功作弊的同学会感到羞耻,并缺乏信心,因为他们没有检测到自己的真实水平,他们欺骗了自己。
To sum up, exams are set for measuring talent and evaluating qualifications, which should be a fair play. However, cheating destroys the justice of examinations. For the sake of a more transparent and honest examenvironment so as to guarantee the legal rights of exam-takers and protect the credibility of examinations,we must clear out the conduct of cheating in exams.
总结,考试是衡量水平的标准,考试应该是公平的。但是,作弊损害了考试的公正。为了营造透明,诚实的考试环境,为了保证考试人员的合法权益,并保护考试的可信度,我们必须杜绝作弊行为。
