Cheating can happen in a lot of different ways. When people cheat, it’s not fair to other people, like the kids who studiedfor the test or who were the true winners 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 knowing the material and it won’t help on the next test --- unless the person cheats again.
Some people lose respect for cheaters and think less of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning 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 lazy 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 reason” for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.
If you were sick or upset about something the night before and couldn’t study, it would 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 balance swimming and school.
A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some solutions(解决办法) together. Talking about these problems and working them out will be better than cheating.The author thinks that when kids cheat in class,________.

There was once a captain who loved money so much that he cheated his sailors at the end of every voyage and took their wages.
On the last day of one voyage, the ship was in a small port. It was winter time, and the sea was very cold, so the captain said to his sailors, “ If one of you stays in the water during the whole night, I will giv

While many young celebrities, especially pretty women, are unwilling to talk about their humble origins, Lu Yan is never too shy to talk about her hometown a small village in northern Jiangxi Province. Surrounded by high mountains, silver stone mining is the major source of wealth in the town where she was born in 1981. When she goes home to visit, she has to take a train from the provincial capital Nanchang for more than an hour, then change to a bus for another hour and a half.
Lu is the eldest of three siblings. "We broke the family planning policy, because village people always want a son," she said smiling. Lu wears clothes from big-name designers now, but when she was a child she often went several years without new clothes. "I grew tall so fast that my mother thought buying new clothes was wasteful," she said. She had no choice but to wear hand-me-downs from relatives.
Lu still remembers clearly her first "made to order" clothing. She picked cotton for a whole summer vacation and earned 90 yuan (US$11). She spent 6 yuan (US$0.70) to take a bus to the county where she asked a tailor to make a coat according to a design in a magazine. "At that time, I thought it was a very modern design," she said. It meant more to her than all the haute couture（高级时装设计）she owned later.
When she graduated from middle school, the 16-year-old Lu was 1.78 metres high. She left for Nanchang to study accounting. "My parents thought the major would help me find a job," she said. She was self-conscious of her height and began walking hunched（拱背）over. "I always bowed. As I grew up, I started to know that my posture（姿势）was not good, so I attended a figure-building class," she said. Little did she know that it would lead her to a bright future.
64. The underlined word “humble” in Paragraph One means_______.
A. rich B. poor C. bright D. modern
65. What does Lu Yan mean by referring to her first "made to order" clothing?
A. Lu Yan made her coat to her own measure by herself.
B. She thought it was a very interesting..
C. She earned the money through her own hard work.
D. It meant a lot to her and her future.
66.Which of the following about Lu Yan isn’t mentioned in the passage?
A. Age. B. Height. C. Hometown. D. Salary.
In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you 
telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m. If someone receive
s a call during sleeping hours, he assumes(想当然地认为)it's a matter of life and death. The time chosen for the call comm.unicates its importance.
In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the attention to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise(产生) between people from cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think if keeping a business associate waiting for an hour. It would be too impolite. A person who is 5 minutes late is expected to make a short apology. If he is less than 5 minutes late, he will say a few wo
rds of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.
60. "The same meaning is attached to telephone calls after 11:00p.m." Here "attached" means _____.
A. taken B. drawn C. given D. shown

B. It may be appropriate to send your invitation cards to your guests three or four days before a dinner party date in some countries.
