GRE Argument 138重新选题
写作题目
收起The following appeared as an editorial in the student newspaper of Groveton College.
"To combat the recently reported dramatic rise in cheating among college students, colleges and universities should adopt honor codes similar to Groveton's, which calls for students to agree not to cheat in their academic endeavors and to notify a faculty member if they suspect that others have cheated. Groveton's honor code replaced an old-fashioned system in which teachers closely monitored students. Under that system, teachers reported an average of thirty cases of cheating per year. The honor code has proven far more successful: in the first year it was in place, students reported twenty-one cases of cheating; five years later, this figure had dropped to fourteen. Moreover, in a recent survey conducted by the Groveton honor council, a majority of students said that they would be less likely to cheat with an honor code in place than without."

通过最近一次报告,大学作弊现象显著增加。然而G大学却通过采取诚信制度的方式使该校学生作弊现象减少。该制度要求同学同意在学业中不作弊,并且当他们怀疑别人作弊时告知老师。G大学的诚信制度取代了原有的老师严密监管的老体制,在老体制中平均每年有30起作弊被上报。而在实施新制度后的第一年,学生上报了21起。五年后,这一数字更是下降到14起。另外,最近一项调查显示,G大学绝大多数学生表示有了诚信制度以后比以前更不可能作弊了。因此,所有的大学都应该采取与G大学类似的诚信制度来降低学生作弊现象。
