A student doesn't know any answers in the exam. When he stared at the blank answer page, all the questions looked vague, and when the results came out, the students realized that he had failed. This is the case with people who copy other people's homework. They don't just cheat, they don't learn anything, and they don't prepare for exams or tests. By using other people's works, they can ruin their achievements and future. Cheating is wrong when we are all capable of doing our own work. People should not be rewarded for the efforts of others.
Most people cheat at least once in their lives, whether it's for missed or unfinished work, or even just for the honor you don't deserve. But this is wrong; In fact, this is immoral and unfair. It is not right to take other people's works as your own. This shows a lack of responsibility and knowledge. For example, if a student cheats on a classmate's test paper, he is taking advantage of others' achievements. If the teacher catches him, the result is usually failure.
Cheating with other people's works is the same as ruining your life with drugs. Not only is this unnecessary and stupid, but it can also become addictive in many ways. If a student keeps cheating, it may become a habit in the future. Besides, no one needs to cheat. We all have brains to use, and teachers, parents and peers to help us. In any case, if we continue to cheat, we will not succeed in life. There is no need to ruin your education and life by cheating.
Liars usually suffer many consequences. At the beginning of primary school, cheating may only lead to loss of credit and going to the principal's office. In middle school, there will be detention on Saturday, suspension of classes and even parent-teacher conferences. But in high school, college and the rest of one's life, cheating will not be tolerated. If a college student quotes from a book or website without explaining the source of the information, it is plagiarism. This kind of invitation for credit will not only have minor consequences, but also put you in jail, destroy some of your work records, tear your relationship with family and friends and endanger your future.
Every day when you pass a corridor haunted by teenagers, at least one person will scribble on a piece of paper crazily, trying to match it with the paper of their peers. All this may happen before a new day begins. Why would they do that? Those extra 10 clubs will not have a huge impact on their grades, but will also remind themselves to do their homework in the future? The clear answer is no! Why can't they tell their teacher the truth? By copying, cheaters learn nothing, and teachers will never know whether they copied their homework or did it themselves.
In a word, it is not only unnecessary but also unreasonable to attribute others' work to themselves. If we all just do our jobs, then there is no need to cheat. We should work hard for our education, not take shortcuts. But most importantly, if we all work hard instead of cheating, then everyone will live a prosperous and successful life.
