Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)
Why Integrity Matters
What is Integrity?
The key to integrity is consistency--not only setting high personal standards for oneself
(honesty, responsibility, respect for others, fairness) but also living up to those standards each day.
One who has integrity is bound by and follows moral and ethical standards even when making
life's hard choices, choices which may be clouded by stress, pressure to succeed, or temptation.
What happens if we lie, cheat, steal, or violate other ethical standards? We feel disappointed
in ourselves and ashamed. But a lapse of integrity also affects our relationships with others. Trust
is essential in any important relationship, whether personal or professional. Who can trust
someone who is dishonest or unfair? Thus, integrity must be one of our most important goals.
Risky Business
We are each responsible for our own decisions, even if the decision-making process has
been undermined by stress or peer pressure. The real test of character is whether we can learn
from our mistake, by understanding why we acted as we did, and then exploring ways to avoid
similar problems in the future.
Making ethical decisions is a critical part of avoiding future problems. We must learn to
recognize risks, because if we can't see the risks we're taking, we can't make responsible choices.
To identify risks, we need to know the rules and be aware of the facts. For example, one who
doesn't know the rules about plagiarism may accidentally use words or ideas without giving
proper credit, or one who fails to keep careful research notes may unintentionally fail to quote and
cite sources as required. But the fact that such a violation is "unintentional" does not excuse the
misconduct. Ignorance is not a defense.
"But Everybody Does It"
Most people who get in trouble do know the rules and facts, but manage to fool themselves
about the risks they're taking by using excuses: "Everyone else does it," "I'm not hurting anyone,鈥�
or "I really need this grade." Excuses can get very elaborate: "I know I'm looking at another's
exam, even though I'm supposed to keep my eyes on my own paper, but that's not cheating
because I'm just checking my answers, notcopying." We must be honest about our actions, and
avoid excuses. If we fool ourselves into believing we're not doing anything wrong, we can't see
the real choice we're making--and that leads to bad decisions.
To avoid fooling yourself, watch out for excuses and try this test: Ask how youwould feel if
your actions were public and anyone could be watching over your shoulder. Would you feel proud
or ashamed of your actions? If you'd rather hide your actions, that's a good indication that you're
taking a risk and rationalizing it to yourself.
Evaluating Risks
To decide whether a risk is worth taking, you must examine the consequences, in the future
as well as right now, negative as well as positive, and to others as well as to yourself. Those who
take risks they later regret usually focus on immediate benefits ("what's in it for me"), and simply
haven't considered what might go wrong. The consequences of getting caught are serious, and
may include a "0" on a test or assignment; an "F" in the class; suspension or dismissal from school;
transcript notation; and a tarnished reputation. In fact, when you break a rule or law, you lose
control over your life, and give others the power to impose punishment: you have no control over
what that punishment might be. This is an extremely precarious and vulnerable position. There
may be some matters of life and death, or highest principle, which might justify such a risk, but
there aren't many things that fall in this category.
Getting Away With It--Or Not
Those who don't get caught pay an even higher price. A cheater doesn't learn from the test,
depriving him/herself of an education. Cheating undermines confidence and independence: the
cheater is a fraud, and knows that without dishonesty, he/she would have failed. Cheating destroys
self-esteem and integrity, leaving the cheater ashamed, guilty, and afraid of getting caught. Worst
of all, a cheater who doesn't get caught the first time usually cheats again, not only because he/she
is farther behind, but also because it seems "easier." This slippery slope of eroding ethics and
bigger risks leads only to disaster. Eventually, the cheater gets caught, and the later he/she gets
caught, the worse the consequences. Students have been dismissed from school because they
didn't get this simple message: Honesty is the ONLY policy that works.
Cheating Hurts Others, Too
Cheaters often feel invisible, as if their actions "don't count" and don't really hurt anyone.
But individual choices have a profoundcumulative effect. Cheating can spread like a disease, and
a cheater can encourage others just by being seen from across the room. Recent statistics suggest
30% or more of college students cheat. If aclass is graded on a curve, cheating hurts others'
grades. Even if there is no curve, cheating "poisons" the classroom, and others may feel pressured
to join in. ("If I don't cheat, I can't compete with thosewho do.") Cheating also has a destructive
impact on teachers. The real reward of good teaching is seeing students learn, but a cheater says,
"I'm not interested in what you're trying to teach; all I care about is stealing a grade, regardless of
the effect on others." The end result is a blatant and destructive attack on the quality of your
education. Finally, cheating can hurt the reputation of the University, and harm those who worked
hard for their degree.
Why Integrity Matters
If cheating becomes the norm, then we are in big trouble. We must rely on the honesty and
good faith of others every day. If not, we couldn't put money in the bank, buy food, clothing, or
medicine from others, drive across a bridge, get on a plane, go to the dentist--the list is endless.
There are many examples of the vast harm that is caused when individuals forget or ignore the
effect their dishonesty can have. The savings and loan scandal, the stock market and junk bond
swindles, and, of course, Watergate, have undermined the faith of many Americans in the integrity
of political and economic leaders and society as a whole. Such incidents take a tremendous toll on
our nation's economy and our individual well-being. For example, but for the savings and loan
debacle, there might be funds available to reduce the national debt and pay for education.
In sum, we all have a common stake in our school, our community, and our society. Our
actions do matter. It is essential that we actwith integrity in order to build the kind of world in
which we want to live.

Passage One
Boys' schools are the perfect place to teach young men to express their emotions and are
more likely to get involved in activities such as art, dance and music, according to research
released today.
Far from the traditional image of a culture of aggressive masculinity in which students either
sink or swim, the absence of girls gives boys the chance to develop without pressure to conform to
a stereotype, the US study says.
Boys at single sex schools were said to be more likely to get involved in cultural and artistic
activities that helped develop their emotional expressiveness, rather than feeling they had to
conform to the "boy code" of hiding their emotions to be a "real man".
The findings of the study go against received wisdom that boys do better when taught
alongside girls.
Tony Little, headmaster of Eton, warned that boys were being failed by the British education
system because it had become too focused on girls. He criticized teachers for failing to recognize
that boys are actually more emotional than girls.
The research argued that boys often perform badly in mixed schools because they become
discouraged when their female peers do better earlier in speaking and reading skills.
But in single-sex schools teachers can tailor lessons to boys' learning style, letting them
move around the classroom and getting them to compete in teams to prevent boredom, wrote the
study's author, Abigail James, of the University of Virginia.
Teachers could encourage boys to enjoy reading and writing with specifically "boy-focused"
approaches such as themes and characters that appeal to them. Because boys generally have more
acute vision, learn best through touch, and are physically more active, they need to be given
"hands-on" lessons where they are allowed to walk around. "Boys in mixed schools view classical
music as feminine and prefer the modern genre in which violence and sexism are major themes,"
James wrote.
Single-sex education also made it less likely that boys would feel they had to conform to a
stereotype that men should be "masterful and in charge" in relationships. "In mixed schools, boys
feel compelled to act like men before they understand themselves well enough to know what that
means," the study reported.
57. The author believes that a single-sex school would _____________________.
A force boys to hide their emotions to be 鈥渞eal man鈥�
B help to cultivate masculine aggressiveness in boys
C encourage boys to express their emotions more freely
D naturally reinforce in boys that traditional image of a man
58. It is commonly believed that in a mixed schools boys ____________________.
A perform relatively better B grow up more healthily
C behave more responsibly D receive a better education
59. What does Tony Little say about the British education system?
A It fails more boys than girls academically B It focuses more on mixed school education
C It fails to give boys the attention they need
D It places more pressure on boys than on girls
60. According to Abigail James, one of the advantages of single-sex schools is
______________.
A teaching can be tailored to suit the characteristics of boys
B boys can focus on their lessons without being distracted
C boys can choose to learn whatever they are interested in
D teaching can be designed to promote boys鈥� team spirit
61. Which of the following is characteristic of boys according to Abigail James鈥� report?
A They enjoy being in charge B They conform to stereotypes
C They have sharper vision D They are violent and sexist
Passage Two
It's an annual argument. Do we or do we not go on holiday? My partner says no because the
boiler could go, or the roof fall off, and we have no savings to save us. I say that you only live
once and we work hard and what's the point if you can't go on holiday. The joy of a recession
means no argument next year 鈥� we just won't go.
Since money is known to be one of the things most likely to bring a relationship to its knees,
we should be grateful. For many families the recession means more than not booking a holiday. A
YouGov poll of 2,000 people found 22% said they were arguing morewith their partners because
of concerns about money. What's less clear is whether divorce and separation rates rise in a
recession 鈥� financial pressures mean couples argue more but make splitting up less affordable. A
recent research shows arguments about money were especially damaging to couples. Disputes
were characterized by intense verbal aggression, tended to be repeated and not resolved, and made
men, more than women, extremely angry.
Kim Stephenson, an occupational psychologist, believes money is such a big deal because of
what it symbolizes, which may be different things to men andwomen. "People can say the same
things about money but have different conceptions of what it is for," he explains. "They will say
it's to save, to spend, for security, for freedom, to show someone you love them" He says men are
more likely to see money as a way of buying status and of showing their parents that they've
achieved something.
"The biggest problem is that couples assume each other knows what is going on with their
finances, but they don't. There seems to be more of a taboo about talking about money than talking
about death. But you both need to know what you are doing, who is paying what into the joint
account and how much you keep separately. In a healthy relationship you don't have to agree
about money, but you have to talk about it."
62. What does the author say about vacationing?
A People enjoy it all the more during a recession
B Few people can afford it without working hard
C It makes all the hard work worthwhile
D It is the chief cause of family disputes
63. What does the author mean by saying 鈥渕oney is known鈥� to bring a relationship to its
knees鈥� (Line1 Para. 2)锛�
A Money is considered to be the root of all evils
B Some people sacrifice their dignity for money
C Few people can resist the temptation of money
D Disputes over money may ruin a relationship
64. The YouGov poll of 2000 people indicates that in a recession _________________.
A conflicts between couples tend to rise
B it is more expensive for couples to split up
C couples show more concern for each other
D divorce and separation rates increase
65. What does Kim Stephenson believe?
A Money is often a symbol of a person鈥檚 status
B Money means a great deal to both men and women
C Men and women spend money on different things
D Men and women view money in different ways
66. The author suggests at the end of the passage that couples should ________________
A put their money together instead of keeping it separately
B make efforts to reach agreement on their family budgets
C discuss money matters to maintain a healthy relationship
D avoid arguing about money matters to remain romantic
Passage Three
In times of economic crisis. Americans turn to their families for support. If the Great
Depression is any guide, we may see a drop in our skyhigh divorce rate. But this won鈥檛 necessarily
represent. an increase in happy marriages. In the long run, the Depression weakened American
families, and the current crisis will probably do the same.
We tend to think of the Depression as a time when families pulled together to survive huge
job losses, By 1932. when nearly one-quarter of the workforce was unemployed, the divorce rate
had declined by around 25% from 1929 But this doesn鈥檛 mean people were suddenly happier with
their marriages. Rather, with incomes decreasing and insecure jobs, unhappy couples often
couldn鈥檛 afford to divorce. They feared neither spouse could manage alone.
Today, given the job losses of the past year, fewer unhappy couples will risk starting separate
households, Furthermore, the housing market meltdown will make it more difficult for them to
finance their separations by selling their homes.
After financial disasters family members also tend to do whatever they can to help each other
and their communities, A 1940 book锛� The Unemployed Man and His Family, described a family
in which the husband initially reacted to losing his job 鈥渨ith tireless search for work.鈥� He was
always active, looking for odd jobs to do.
The problem is that such an impulse is hard to sustain Across the country, many similar
families were unable to maintain the initial boost in morale(澹埃). For some, the hardships of life
without steady work eventually overwhelmed their attempts to keep their families together. The
divorce rate rose again during the rest of the decade as the recovery took hold.
Millions of American families may now be in the initial stage of their responses to the current
crisis, working together and supporting one another through the early months of unemployment.
Today鈥檚 economic crisis could well generate a similar number of couples whose relationships
have been irreparably(鐒℃硶褰岃鍦�)ruined. So it鈥檚 only when the economy is healthy again that
we鈥檒l begin to see just how many broken families have been created.

Passage Four
People are being lured (寮曡獦)onto Facebook with the promise of a fun, free service
without realizing they鈥檙e paying for it by giving up toads of personal information. Facebook then
attempts to make money by selling their data to advertisers thatwant to send targeted messages.
Most Facebook users don鈥檛 realize this is happening. Even if they know what the company is
up to, they still have no idea what they鈥檙e paying for Face book because people don鈥檛 really know
what their personal data is worth.

Internet.

changes to improve its service, and if people don鈥檛 share information They have a 鈥渓(f膩)ess satisfying
experience鈥�.

business model, which involved selling ads and putting then At the side of the pages totally Who
wants to took at ads when they鈥檙e online connecting with their friends?
The privacy issue has already landed Facebook in hot water in Washington. In April. Senator
Charles Schumer called on Facebook to change its privacy policy. He also urged the Federal Trade
Commission to set guidelines for social-networking sites.鈥淚 think the senator rightly
communicated that we had not been clear about what the new products were and how people
could choose to use them or not to use them,鈥� Schrage admits.
I suspect that whatever Facebook has done so far to invade our privacy, it鈥檚 only the
beginning. Which is why I鈥檓 considering deactivating(鎾ら姺)my account. Facebook is a handy site,
but I鈥檓 upset by the idea that my information is in the hands of people I don鈥檛 That鈥檚 too high a

Part I Writing
Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong Will
Nothing runs smoothly in our life. To achieve things successfully, a strong will is essential.
Life is like a Marathon. Many people can鈥檛 get to the terminal. This is not because they are lack of
vitality but because their will of success is not strong enough.
To take quitting smoking as an example, some regard it as a piece of cake. They make up
their minds to quit it in the morning, but in the evening they feel that the smell of cigarettes is
tempting. Their throats are sore, their mouths are thirsty, and their hands are shaking. After the
painful mental struggle, they tell themselves that 鈥淥ne cigarette is enough. Just take one, and the
next day I will quit it.鈥� By doing this, they surrender to their weak will. In the end, they have
quitted smoking 鈥渁 hundred times鈥�, but in no time they succeed.
Just like quitting smoking, nothing succeeds without a strongwill. To be successful in one鈥檚
life, a strong will means that you know where you go and youwill persist on the road you choose.
Undoubtedly success belongs to those who overcome their weak will and who hang in there until
the last minute.
