3. Hamlet
Hamlet, the Prince of Denmark, is probably the best known of William Shakespeare's works, and may well be the most famous English-language play ever written. Categorized as one of Shakespeare9s \"later tragedies”，Hamlet and its namesake hero display fully the mature Bard's extraordinary talents. But while Hamlet has been the subject of admiring critical commentary since Elizabethan times, it has also developed a reputation as a different work to analyze.
The character of Hamlet is one of the most compelling characters ever rising from the pages of English literature. As Shakespeare's play opens, Hamlet is mourning his father, who has been killed, and lamenting the behavior of his mother, Gertrude, who marries his uncle Claudius within a month of his father's death.
Prince Hamlet devotes himself to avenging his father's death, but, because he is contemplative and thoughtful by nature, he delays, entering into a deep melancholy and even apparent madness.

IL Test analysis
Summary:
Writing term papers has been a headache for generations of students. Nowadays, students can purchase, order, or download online term papers. A lot of websites offer this kind of opportunities. That brings forth new problems to teachers. But it is not too difficult for a perceiving teacher to tell whether the student is cheating. Also the teachers can structure the assignment in a creative way to prevent students from cheating.
Structure:
Part I (Paras. 1-7) Nowadays students can purchase, order, or download online term papers. Part II (Paras.8-10) Some people worry that the Internet could become the best aid for cheating, but it is not very difficult for a perceiving teacher to tell whether the student is the real author of the paper.
Part III (Paras. 11-16) Students who tend to cheat will cheat anyway even without the Internet and the strategy the teachers structure the assignment in a creative way may prevent students from cheating.

VLTranslation Passge A
做坦诚的人
我祖父祖母认为，一个人要么诚实，要么不诚实。两者之间没有折中可言。在他们起居 室的墙上挂着一幅字，上面写着一句朴实无华的格言： ''生活如雪后初霁的大地。足之所至, 迹必留之。〃他们没有必要去用语言作出解释一一因为他们用自己的生活方式印证了这一真 理。
他们生来就认为，所谓正直，就是有自己的道德界定标准，既不贪财图利，也不因所处 的环境而妥协。正直是判断自身行为的心灵标尺。
遗憾的是，正直这一品格如今己不多见一一而且越来越难寻觅了。但它却是社会各领 域的真正基础，也是我们必须要求自己遵循的一条原则。检验这一价值观的一个好办法就 是运用本人所说的''正直三角原则〃，即下列三大原则：
在面对个人压力的时侯要坚定自己的信念。有这样一个故事，讲的是一位外科护士第 一天到一家知名医院的医疗小组协助开刀的故事。她的责任是确保手术中的每样手术器械 和手术材料都如数清点好。这位护士对主刀医生说： ''你只拿出了 11块止血纱布，而我们 共用了 12块。我们必须找到最后那一块纱布。〃
''我全拿出来了，〃外科医生肯定地对她说。''现在开始缝合刀口。〃
''你不能这样做，先生，〃护士坚决反对，''我们应该为病人着想。〃
医生露出了笑容，他抬起左脚，让护士看到了第12块纱布。''你在这家医院或其他任 何一家医院都会干得很出色的。”他用肯定的语气对她说。
所以，当你确信自己是正确的，就决不能让步。
总是给予别人以他们应得的表扬。不要害怕那些主意比你妙甚至比你聪明的人。
戴维•奥格尔维是奥美广告公司的创始人，他送给新任命的各部门主管每人一个俄国套 娃，每个套娃从大到小依次有五个洋娃娃，以此来说明这个道理。
最小的那个洋娃娃里面装着奥格尔维要告诉他们的话:''如果我们每个人都聘用比我们小 的人，那么我们的公司就会变成一个矮子公司。但是如果我们每个人都聘用比我们大的人, 那么奥美广告公司就会变成一家巨人公司。〃而奥美广告公司后来真的变成了巨人一一它成 了国际上规模最大、名望最高的广告公司之一。
要诚实坦白地表现真正的自我。缺乏实实在在内涵的人会去依靠外部因素一一如长相或 地位一一来保持良好的自我感觉。他们必然会不择手段地去维护自己的这种假面具，他们 不太会去努力提高自己的内涵和素质。
因此，要表现出真正的自我。别去设法掩盖生活中那些不尽人意的方面。正如罗伯特•舒 勒所说，''艰苦的时光终将过去，坚强的人必将苦尽甘来。〃换言之，要正视现实，要用成熟 的心态去迎接生活的挑战。
自尊和问心无愧是正直的两个重要组成部分，也是加深你与他人关系的基础。为人正 直意味着去做你应该做的事，因为那是对的，而不是因为合乎潮流或迎合了政治上的需要。 在生活中如果能坚持原则，抵制住放松道德标准的种种诱惑，那你就会永远立于不败之地。 这样，你在跨入21世纪的时侯，用不着去为自己过去的所作所为而抱憾。这就是我祖父祖 母教给我的做人道理。
Passage B
网上资源：最佳的作弊辅助手段？
旧金山（美国有线新闻电视网）■■对一代又一代的学生来说，写学期论文即使不是最可 怕的作业，也至少一直是让他们头疼和沮丧的主要原因。但是对于那些可以上网的人来说, 借助几次连接就可以窃取到相关的资料。
当代学生若想抄袭学期论文，用不着费劲去查找。他只要找对网址，就可以在那儿购 买、预定或免费下载网上的论文。
例如在”大学关心网助研中心”就能办到。你想”写“一篇关于”哈姆雷特所面临的不可调 和的道德困境”的论文吗？只要交上29.75美元，文章就归你了。
对于那些觉得这还太贵的人来说，可以另觅他法。”大学保姆网”以每页5.95美元的价 格出售收录在档的现成论文，且”论文质优价低”。这样，对于那些在乎价格的学生来说， 买上几页就可大功告成了。
”论文精粹“是另一个学生援助网站，它提供”优质”而”价廉”的学期论文。”让您称心、 保您成功。这是该网站向潜在客户夸下的海口。
如果你实在太懒或实在太忙，没时间写学期论文，那么”论文精粹”时刻恭候着你。只要 一次性交费9.95美元，你就能看到别人在整个学期里写的论文。
有的网址，如”学期论文大卖场“和”绝对免费：网上论文”，免费提供课程论文。你只需 按一下键钮，然后下载--只要你找到了想要的文章，也成。
当然，学生们对这些网上资源了如指掌，于是有人担心，因特网一旦成为广受欢迎的最 佳学习工具，也可能会变成作弊的最佳辅助手段。
对于教师来说，他们面对的问题是要分辨学生是否是论文的真正作者。不过，简X莫里 森助教解释说，对于眼光敏锐的老师来说，这事儿也许不太难。
”如果文章是来自因特网，学生会不敢正眼看我，他们会表现出不安，只是低头看着自己 的双脚。而如果论文是自己一字一句写出来的，这样的学生能就自己的文章侃侃而谈，而 且敢正视我。”莫里森说。
抄袭学期论文并不是什么新鲜事，多年来人们一直在用盗来的知识财富做交易。但是 因特网的出现提出了这样一个问题：这种新技术是否在使作弊变得更为普遍？
伯克利大学的一位高级管理人员对此表示怀疑。”对想要作弊的学生，不管技术水平如 何，他还是要作弊。认为因特网这种新工具会提高作弊的发生率，我觉得这是一种偏激的 观点。“加里X汉德曼说。
这一观点得到了伯克利一个名叫阿里亚尼X彻诺克的研究生的支持，他说，学生们最终 还是要靠自己来判断怎样做对自己最有利。”这是个关乎诚实与否的问题。我们来这儿是学 知识的，所以我们应该充分利用这个学习机会。\"
再则，有创造力的教师可以布置出学生无法作弊的作业来。
”如果你布置的作业新颖独特，比如学生们必须根据给定的内容写一份讲义、写一个剧本, 或用第一人称写一篇叙述文，那么你就能制止来路不正的作业。”图书馆的媒体教师莱斯利
X法默如是说。
有的专家说，这种策略将从根本上迫使学生去更多地学习，而不只是下载网上的资料。
The author of this passage argues for the \"Integrity Triangle,, with three principles. Two of the principles are respectively supported by an example. The principle:
Always give others credit that is rightfully theirs. Don't be afraid of those who might have a better idea or who might even be more intelligent than you are. (Para. 9) An example to support the principle:
David Ogilvy, founder of the advertising firm Ogilvy & Mather, clarified this point to his newly appointed office heads by sending each of them a Russian nesting doll with five progressively smaller figures inside.
His message was contained in the smallest doll: \"If each of us hires people who are smaller than we are, we shall become a company of dwarfs. But if each of us hires people who are bigger than we are, Ogilvy & Mather will become a company of giants.” And that is precisely what O&M became — one of the largest and most respected advertising organizations in the world.
Now have a look at Para.4 - 7 and fill out the charts below to see how this segment is organized. The principle:
Stand firmly for your convictions when confronted with personal pressure. An example to support the principle:
There's a story told about a surgical nurse's assistance during her first day on the medical team at a well-known hospital. She was responsible for ensuring that all surgical instruments and materials were accounted fbr during an operation. The nurse said to the surgeon, \"You've only removed 11 sponges, and we used 12. We need to find the last one.\" \"I removed them all,” the surgeon assured her, \"We'll close now.\" \"You can't do that, sir,” protested the nurse. \"Think of the patient.^,
Smiling, the surgeon lifted his foot and showed the nurse the twelfth sponge. \"You'll do just fine in this or any other hospital,\" he assured her.
Structure:
Part I ((para. 1 -2)
Idea: Honesty or integrity involves having a personal standard of morality and boundaries that does not sell out to convenience and that is not relative to the situation at hand. Devices for developing it: Citation (引证法)
The author cites his grandparents9 case as an introduction to his main idea of the \"Integrity Triangle\".
My grandparents believed that you were either honest or you were not. There was no middle point. They had a simple saying hanging on their living-room wall: \"Life is like a field of newly fallen snow. Where I choose to walk every step will show.\" They didn't have to talk about it; they demonstrated this truth by their life style.(Para. 1) Part II (Para.3-13)
Idea: The author argues fbr the \"Integrity Triangle\" with three principles: stand firmly fbr your
convictions under whatever pressure; give others credit they deserve; and be honest about yourself.
Devices for developing it: Deduction (演绎法)(Para. 12-13)
Deduction (演绎法) Specific argumentations:
People who lack genuine core values rely on external factors 一 their looks or status 一 in order to feel good about themselves. Inevitably they will do everything they can to preserve this false mask, but they will do very little to enhance their inner value and personal growth.
So be yourself. Don't engage in a personal cover-up of areas that are unpleasing in your life. “Tough times never last but tough people do,\" as Robert Schuller says. In other words, face reality and be mature in your responses to life's challenges. Part III (Para. 14)
Idea: My experiences with the online course helped me reap the benefits of hard work. Devices for developing it: Induction (归纳法)Paragraph 14
Self-respect and a clear conscience are powerful components of integrity and are the basis for enriching your relationships with others. Integrity means you do what you do because it is right and not just fashionable or politically coiTect. A life of principle, of not yielding to the tempting attractions of an easy morality, will always win the day. It will take you forward into the twenty-first century without having to check your tracks in a rear-view mirror. My grandparents taught me that

Should We Leave Some Roomfor Cheating on Exams in Our Society?
1) Nowadays, cheating in exams is so popular on campus that many people regard it as a natural thing we have to live with. 2) Underlying their view is the ground that any struggle against it will give rise to more sophisticated methods of cheating, like burning the grass that comes back to life in spring winds. 3) Furthermore, they argue that the cheaters5 success in the college entrance examinations did not come by easily and they will forever lose the chance of further education if they are expelled from school. 4) A deeper insight into the problem, however, can find that those keen on this have formed a raging current, which is eating away at the foundations of our values and moralities in education. 5) If allowed to run its course, this current, with more and more students getting involved in it, would become stronger and stronger until there would be little that we can do about it. 6) On the other hand, a severe punishment for cheating on exams can bring both honesty and fair competition back into our campus life. 7) It must be kept in mind that the purpose of our education is not to preserve every student's false mask but to build up their self-confidence for the sake of future competition. 8) Thus, no room is to be left for cheating on exams in our society.
