2014年英语专四考试作文预测：论开云kaiyun(中国)术腐败

　　The picture symbolically depicts how some people who call themselves “scholars” are doing their research. Instead of writing their own research papers, they resort to copying each other’s works.

　　Suppose that every scientist or researcher does not do experiments, but plagiarize others’ research results, then what would happen?

We each individual should start from right here and now, and attach great value and importance to the urgency of the issue. It is time that drastic measures were taken by the authorities to change the situation.
