ESL Podcast 250 – Cheating on a Test
时间：2019-02-09 作者：英语课 分类：地道美语播客
Oscar: What are you doing?
Elena: I’m getting ready for the test.
Oscar: By writing the answers on a cheat sheet? You’re not going to get away with that.
Elena: I got a “D” on the last test and I have to do better on this one. If I don’t get at least a “B,” I’m going to flunk 1 this class.
Oscar: You’re taking a big risk. You could get suspended or expelled!
Elena: I know, but my final grade is on the line. And plus, I think that the worst that could happen is that I get an automatic F on the test. It’s not like I’m stealing a copy of the test or plagiarizing 2 on an important assignment.
Oscar: Still, there’s no telling what Mr. McQuillan will do to you if he finds out. I’d let you copy off my test if I thought we could get away with it, but he always keeps a close eye on us during tests. That’s why I think you’re going to get caught.
Elena: It’s not like I have any choice, do I? It’s either cheating or going to summer school.
Oscar: I still think it’s a bad idea.
Elena: Then, just don’t think about it. Let me worry about it, okay?
