More than half of teachers in a UK survey said they thought plagiarism from the Internet is a problem.
Some students who steal essays wholly  from the Web, they said, are so lazy they don’t even bother to take the ads off the cut-and-pasted text. 58 percent of the teachers interviewed in the Association of Teachers and Lectures(ALT) questionnaire had come across plagiarism among their pupils. Gill Bullen from Itchen College in Southampton, for example, said pieces handed in by two students were the same and significantly better than either of them could have done.” “Not only that, the essays given in didn’t quite answer the title question I had set.” A teacher from Leeds said, “ I had one piece of work so obviously ‘cut and pasted’ that it still contained ads from the Web page” Connie Robinson from Stockton Riverside College, Stockton, said, “ With less able students, it is easy to spot plagiarism as the writing style changes mid-assignment, but with more able students, it is sometimes necessary for teachers to carry out Internet research to find out the source of the plagiarism.” Mary Bousted, general secretary of the ALT, said, “Teachers are struggling under a mountain of cut-and-pasting to spot whether work was the student’s own or plagiarism.” She called for strong policies to oppose plagiarism, and asked for help from the government in providing resources and techniques to delete cheats.

举一反三
If there"s a child in your house who likes pixies(精灵), nature, or magic, Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure is sure to be a hit. This beautifully animated film is a first class production in every way, and features the familiar voices of Kristin Chenoweth, Anjelica Huston, Jane Horrocks, Lucy Liu, and Raven Symone.The movie offers up an adventure that"s easy enough to follow, but complex enough to hold one"s
attention, and even throws in a nice little moral about friendship.What can I say? I"m pleasantly surprised.
The promising Mae Whitman voices Tinker Bell herself, a far more dynamic character than we met in Peter Pan.Though Tinker still possesses her fiery temper,  it doesn"t manifest itself immediately,  and takes a backseat to this pixie"s many good qualities. As it turns out, Tinker Bell is extremely skilled at tinkering (修补 ), so she is a natural choice to build a special scepter(拐杖),for Pixie Hollow"s Autumn Celebration.The scepter will hold the moonstone through which the light of the Blue Moon will pass,  supplying Pixie Hollow with enough pixie dust for the year ahead.
For days, Tinkers works hard on the perfect scepter design while her good friend Terrence does his best to assist. When Terrence accidentally breaks the Moon Stone, Tinker Bell "explodes and sends him away.One of Tinker"s more literal friends finds this extremely concerning, as she doesn"t" quite understand
that the outburst was emotional rather than physical - very funny indeed.
After hearing the legend of the lost treasure, Tinker Bell strikes out on her own to find a new Moon Stone.She faces many difficulties and meets new friends along the way, but when Terrence comes to the rescue at Tinker"s darkest hour, she realizes the value of a truly loyal friend. Though the film offers a positive message to young viewers, it"s the animation that makes Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure stand out.Pixie Hollow is a charming, visually stunning world basked in lush colors.It"s so lovely, so detailed, so
three - dimensional that you almost want to step inside.

Taiwanese fishing boats that sailed to the Diaoyu Islands to protest Japan"s "purchase" of part of the islands completed their voyage Tuesday morning and have set sail for home.
Local media reported that the boats finished their protest at 9:15 a.m. and are expected to return to a port in northeast Taiwan"s Yilan county at noon Wednesday.
Although the boats originally numbered 75,they were joined at sea by other boats from different parts of Taiwan, raising the total number to about 100 vessels. Organizers said the voyage was made to protect Taiwanese fishing rights in nearby waters and to protest Japan"s "purchase" of part of the Diaoyu Islands.
The Japanese government announced a plan to "purchase" part of the islands earlier this month despite repeated protests from the Chinese government. The action aroused demonstrations across China as well as consumers" boycott of Japanese products in recent weeks. Local authorities in Taiwan have also protested the move.
"Japan"s purchase and nationalization of China"s Diaoyu Islands are putting China-Japan economic and trade ties at risk due to man-made factors." An official spokesman from Beijing warned .

He was the baby with no name. Found and taken from the north Atlantic 6 days after the sinking of the Titanic in 1912, his tiny body so moved the salvage workers that they called him "Our baby". In their home port of Halifax, Nova Scotia, people collected money for a headstone in front of the baby"s grave, carved with the words: “To the memory of an unknown child.” He has rested there ever since.
But history has a way of uncovering its secrets. On November 5 , this year, three members of a family from Finland arrived at Halifax and laid fresh flowers at the grave. "This is our baby," says Magda Schleifer,68,a banker. She grew up hearing stories about a great-aunt named Maria Panula, 42, who had sailed on the Titanic for America to be reunited with her husband. According to the information Mrs Schleifer had gathered, Panula gave up her seat on a lifeboat to search for her five children----including a 13-month-old boy named Eino--from whom she had become separated during the final minutes of the crossing. "We thought they were all lost in the sea." says Schleifer.
Now, using teeth and bone pieces taken from the baby"s grave, scientists have compared the DNA from the Unknown Child with those collected from members of five families who lost relatives on the Titanic and never recovered the bodies. The result of the test points only to one possible person: young Eino. Now the family see no need for a new grave. "he belongs to the people of Halifax," says Schleifer. “ They"ve taken care of him for 90 years.”

The black and white bird came ashore on a beach in the south of the North Island nearly 4,000 miles away from its usual habitat. The creature’s astonishing journey was witnessed by a woman walking her dog as the two-foot bird waddled out of the water in front of her. She said, “It was out of this world to see it. It was this glistening white thing standing up on the sand and I thought I was seeing things.” The tale of the lost penguin is similar to the 2006 children’s film Happy Feet, in which a young penguin finds himself far from home during a voyage of discovery.
Conservationists believe it has completed an incredible journey for such a young bird — it is estimated to be around 10 months old. The most likely explanation for its appearance in New Zealand is the hunt for food. Experts said it may also have rested on an ice floe (浮冰) during its travels and was carried north for a great distance before it made a swim for dry land. Colin Miskelly, a curator of New Zealand Museum, said, “They can spend months at a time in the ocean and come ashore only to moult (脱毛,换毛)or rest.” Mr. Miskelly said the brave bird would have to find its way back south soon if it was going to survive. He said, “It is probably hot and thirsty and has been eating wet sand.” “It doesn’t realize that the sand isn’t going to melt inside it because they typically eat snow — their only liquid.”
New Zealand residents have been warned to give the bird a wide berth — it can inflict (予以) painful bites if threatened.
小题1:Which of the following is True of Paragraph 1?
A.A young penguin found himself far from home during a voyage of moulting.
B.A creature’s astonishing journey was incredible in the north of the North Island.
C.A woman witnessed a 2 feet bird waddled in the children’s film while walking her dog.
D.A penguin came ashore on a beach thousands of miles away from its habitate.
小题2:Conservationists tend to explain that____________.
A.the young bird has completed a pleasant journey of 4,000 thousand miles
B.the young bird’s appearance in New Zealand is due to its hunt for food and delay of returning
C.the young bird comes ashore in New Zealand only to moult or rest during its voyage
D.the young bird is certain to be over 10 months old when it appears on a beach
小题3:What do we know about the penguin according to Mr. Miskelly?
A.The penguin could spend months at a time in the ocean and came ashore only to have young ones.
B.The young bird might have slept on an ice floe and could not swim for dry land.
C.The young penguin didn’t realize the sand wasn’t going to melt inside it like snow it eats.
D.The brave bird would have to find its way back north soon if it was going to survive.
小题4:What does the underlined part mean in the last sentence? 
A.The residents should keep well away from it when they want to watch the young penguin.
B.Some people do not realize the danger of the young bird and they are expected to touch it.
C.New Zealand residents want to keep the young bird but it wants to leave the shore.
