Honesty of American students 

When I first arrived in America,I was surprised by the honesty of my classmates. Over my first month at school,I didn't see or hear anyone cheating. found two reasons for this.

First,if any student cheats,he or she will get punished. My school has a rule called the Honor Code. It asks students not to steal,lie or cheat. If someone goes against the code,he or she will have to leave the school. During my first year in the school,seven students left the school because of cheating.

Second,American students don't care about scores as much as Chinese students do. They know that colleges will look at their all-round abilities instead of only scores. So they have fewer reasons to cheat.

1. The writer didn't see or hear anyone cheating when she first arrived in America,did she?

                               

2. What is the Honor Code about?

                            

3. What will happen if students go against the code?

                            

4. Who does the writer think care more about scores,American students or Chinese students?

                               

5. Do American colleges think all-round abilities are important for students?
