A lot of parents help their kids do homework and study for school. 1.
A photographer in India’s Bihar state took a photo of dozens of parents risking their lives to help their 10th-graders cheat on tests. The parents climbed the walls of a four-story school to throw cheat sheets through the window for their children.
2. About 600 students were expelled(开除) from the school. And police have detained(拘留) more than 1,000 people connected with the scandal(丑闻).
The tests the Bihar students were taking are called board exams. These exams help determine who will be considered the top students in each class. India’s best university will take only students with a 95 percent score or better. 3.
Students who make it into India’s top universities have a much better chance of getting well-paid jobs. They can help their families by becoming doctors or engineers. Many of the students who don’t pursue(追求) these kinds of careers have a much more difficult time making money.
4. About 30 percent of its citizens are considered poor. In many parts of the country, a family of five might struggle to survive on as little as $80 a month. For students who do well, the exams can be a life-changing event for their families.
Few believe the Bihar incident will stop people from cheating on exams. Many students think that because others are cheating, they also have to cheat to keep up. 5.
Officials believe that new laws and policies will help only so much. To stop cheating, they say, people need to change their attitudes toward it.
A. India has a high poverty rate.
B. This cycle has proved very difficult to break.
C. The exam season can be called cheating season.
D. The government cannot stop cheating in exams.
E. The serious cheating outbreak did not go unpunished.
F. But the parents of some students in India have taken helping their kids to a new level.
G. As a result, students throughout the country are under great pressure to do well on the tests.
Gregory Kloehn digs through dustbins every day, but not for the reason that most people would think. He isn’t homeless. In fact he is trying to help the homeless.
Gregory began his life as a sculptor. But he often felt that his sculpture (雕塑) which just stood in rich people’s houses for years, lacked a meaningful purpose. So in 2015 he decided to put his artistic energies into creating homes to sell—not ordinary homes but small structures built entirely from recycled materials.
The thought of creating homes for the homeless didn’t come to him until the year 2017, when a homeless couple asked him for a tarp(防水布). Instead of a tarp, Gregory offered them something better: a small home with a water tank, a kitchen and a tap for waste. They were so grateful that Gregory decided to focus his efforts on helping house the homeless population in his city. And soon his “Homeless Homes Project” was started.
Before starting a new home, Gregory goes hunting for materials by digging through dustbins. Everything he finds is usable—refrigerator doors become house doors; washing machine doors often serve as windows, and the tops of cars become strong roofs. He put wheels at the bottom for users to move their homes around easily. Each home takes two to three days to make.
So far Gregory has donated dozens of homes to the city’s most needy. While his small low- cost mobile homes are not the final solution to the problem of homelessness, they are really practical and do provide a warm and safe place for the homeless to stay in. They are simply a way for one man to do something nice for those in need of some help.
Gregory has written a book titled Homeless Architecture, where he explains techniques to build those homes and he is now working on weekend workshops. “A lot of people who hear about what I’m doing want to get involved,” he said. “Maybe we can meet someplace and put a couple of homes together. ”
