美文赏析

　　Harvard is a world­class university.Some famous leaders，including American President Barack Obama，graduated from the Ivy League school.It is a college that claims to teach students“integrity”，which is why a

　　recent cheating scandal surrounding it has come as a surprise.

　　Last month，during a take­home exam,125 students from one course were accused of sharing answers.Suspected cheating was found in half of the exam papers handed in.

　　Exam rules stated that students should not discuss answers but could use the Internet and textbooks.However，a lot of answers were practically identical，leading teachers to think something was wrong.

　　Harvard responded to the cheating in two ways.They have launched an inquiry into what happened but also asked professors to be clearer about what counts as“group work”．Some academic experts think cheating has become more common and the message about what is OK and what isn't is no longer clear.

　　Donald L．McCabe，a professor at the Rutgers University Business School in the US and leading researcher on cheating，told The New York Times

　　that the Internet has made cheating easier.Howard Gardner，a professor at the Harvard Graduate School of Education，said that he studied academic integrity over 20 years and that“the ethical⑤ muscles have atrophied(萎缩)”because nowadays people want success but do not care how they get it—whether it is through honest or dishonest means.
