【抄袭】

　　

　　我有个朋友在圣路易斯的华盛顿大学教欧洲历史，他说有一次他发现了一篇抄袭的学期论文。他把那个学生叫到了办公室。“这不是你写的，”他说，“有人帮你从百科全书上原封不动地打印了下来。”

　　

　　“你没有证据。”那学生气急败坏地说。

　　

　　我朋友笑了，他把论文拿给他看。用红笔圈出来的是：“也可参阅共产主义一文。”

　　

　　【Plagiarism】

　　

　　A friend of mine who teachs European history at Washington University in St. Louis tell about the time he spotted a plagiarized term paper. He summoned the student to his office. "This isn't your work." he said. "Someone typed it for you straight out of the encyclopedia.

　　

　　"You cann't prove that!" the student sputtered.

　　

　　My friend amiled and show him the paper. Circled in red was: "Also see article on communism."
