THAT’S CHEATING!
Eight parents and teachers are in the news because they have helped students cheat in university
entrance exams. Every year 10 million eighteen-year olds take this exam. There’s big pressure on
students to get into a good university. The exams are so important that the police stop the traffic, so the
students can arrive at the exam centre on time. People who live near mustn’t shout or use car horns, so
the students can concentrate.
These parents used modern technology to send exam answers to the students. Firstly, they bribed a
teacher with some money and the teacher faxed the exam to the parents. Secondly, the parents gave
some university students some money and the university students did the exam. Finally, the parents
communicated with their children using special mobile phones. The police detected the phone call.
In another school a man gave some money to his son’s friend. The friend took a photo of the test and
sent it to his friend’s father. The father had a team of nine teachers who answered the questions. The
father then sent back the answers to his son and the friend.
Cheating can sometimes be creative, but the risk is very high. The police caught both groups and
arrested the parents and the teachers. Now they have to wait for the courts to decide their
punishment.

Dear Editor
I am writing with regards to the article 'Is the TV Dead?' that appeared in your newspaper on the
4th March. The author claimed that with the rise of the Internet, the TV was becoming less and
less significant in our lives.
I find it very difficult to agree with this view. The TV is still the main way most of us get our
entertainment at home. It offers us the chance to see top musical artists, great films and
documentaries and occasionally, thanks to important televised events, it has the power to bring the
whole nation and all ages together in a way the Internet never could.
Your article was particularly critical of the TV for the poor quality of programmes available on the
many channels we now have. It is certainly true that many of the channels offer nothing more than
repeats or low budget programmes. However, I would argue that the majority of content on the
Internet is also of questionable quality. I agree with the writer that it is easy to keep up-to-date with
the latest news on the Internet, but I'm sure most of us still enjoy sitting down to the News on TV
in the evening just as much.
The writer is correct in stating that the Internet has become our major source for research and I
think this is its main strength. However, criticising the TV for not being as good is totally unfair.
Information programmes like documentaries are made for their potential as entertainment not as
research tools and as such will continue to be popular with viewers.
So in conclusion I don't think the writer should be so quick to write the TV off. On the contrary, I
think it has many more years left in it!
Yours sincerely

a) to make a complaint
