Cheating On phenomenon(Elvis Li)

It is a not honor word, cheating , which attract so many people to do this. The reason why a great deal of people make a decision to risk is that cheating can help people get good grade, but it cannot need them to pay their effort.
With the development of the society, people pay increasingly attention to education. As a result, thousands of students take part in various examinations. However, some students have been found cheating on their exams. Some of them copy from each others, some took out their textbooks or reference books to copy, some copied from small pieces of paper on which they had prepared for the exam, still some used the modern communication tools such as BP, mobile phone as a way to cheat on exams.Then, what’s the effect of cheating on exam? There are three factors for this. First, it results in an unfair competition and will destroy the creativity of those bright students. Second, it will ruin the students’ self-confidence in the long run. Third, under that kind of circumstances, the students graduated from the schools will not be the one who can meet the need of the society.
However, how to stop cheating on exam? In my opinion, there are two ways we can adopt. First, a severe punishment should be put into effect to prevent students from cheating. Second, great effort should be made to make students understand what kind of person the society needs and try to improve their self-confidence.

  1. You have a lot of information in this journal post, which is good. I think you can develop it by working on the organization, especially the introduction, where you should state what the piece of writing is going to be about, and the conclusion, in which you need to tie everything together and summarize your ideas. What you have written above could easily be developed into a good 5-paragraph essay, perhaps for your portfolio? (Eilidh)

  2. Hi Elvis, your article has logic and I agree with your opinion. But I think you should focus on the details of one sentence such as the thense, matching of the subject and the verb,etc. Your analyzing is so deep and full that attract me. (Bonnie)
