　　One possible version

　　What is honesty? Honesty means speaking the truth and being fair and upright in act. Considered a virtue, it is admired in every country and every culture. So, Is it necessary to be honest all the time .

　　 However, there are people who try to get benefits by dishonest means.

　　 For example, some students copy the exercises done by others or cheat in examinations in order to get good marks. The same thing may be said of a merchant who tries to get rich by deceiving

　　customers. Those people may succeed for a time, but sooner or later, they will be caught.

　　How can cheating on exams be prevented? The measures may vary from case to case. But I think, the students must first be well informed of the negative effect. Then the students who were caught in the act of cheating can be criticized publicly, punished or even expelled from the school.

　　阅读：A篇【答案与解析】这是一篇关于竹子的说明文。讲述了竹子的生长处、种类、颜色、用途等。

　　1. C。由第2段的第1句我们可以推测出竹子与其他草类相似的地方是grow back very quickly。

　　2. C。阅读第3段的第2句They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across可推知：while(表对比，意为“而”)前面讲有些竹子(bamboo)很细，只有(only)几厘米粗，而与相比，while 后面则讲有些竹子长得很壮，可以有30厘米粗。因此答案选C。
