According to a recent report, cheating among college and university students is on the rise. However, Groveton College has successfully reduced student cheating by adopting an honor code, which calls for students to agree not to cheat in their academic endeavors and to notify a faculty member if they suspect that others have cheated. Groveton's honor code replaced a system in which teachers closely monitored students; under that system, teachers reported an average of thirty cases of cheating per year. In the first year the honor code was in place, students reported twenty-one cases of cheating; five years later, this figure had dropped to fourteen. Moreover, in a recent survey, a majority of Groveton students said that they would be less likely to cheat with an honor code in place than without. Thus, all colleges and universities should adopt honor codes similar to Groveton's in order to decrease cheating among students.

题目翻译

通过最近一次报告，大学作弊现象显著增加。然而G大学却通过采取诚信制度的方式使该校学生作弊现象减少。该制度要求同学同意在学业中不作弊，并且当他们怀疑别人作弊时告知老师。G大学的诚信制度取代了原有的老师严密监管的老体制，在老体制中平均每年有30起作弊被上报。而在实施新制度后的第一年，学生上报了21起。五年后，这一数字更是下降到14起。另外，最近一项调查显示，G大学绝大多数学生表示有了诚信制度以后比以前更不可能作弊了。因此，所有的大学都应该采取与G大学类似的诚信制度来降低学生作弊现象。

题目分析

1. 学生作弊数量真的下降了吗?在新的条件下，由于缺乏监督，很多作弊行为更可能没有被抓到或报告，因此学生报告的作弊数量的减少未必证明作弊数量一定下降了。

2. 文中没有提及样本的数量和组成，因此也许调查的样本选取或提问方式等有问题，结论也自然不足为信。即使样本选取无误，由于该问题比较敏感，很可能学生不会说实话，所以调查结论也不能说明学生真的不会作弊。

3. 即使在G校该措施确实有效，在其他学校未必如此。如G校学生自律能力强，但其他学校的学生可能不如他们，因此该措施不一定会有效。即使该措施有效，它也未必必要，也许有其他更简单的措施来减少作弊率。比如增加监考老师人数，使用AB卷，考场进行隔行隔列安排考生就座等。
