Some people argue that self-plagiarism(自我剽窃)is impossible by definition because plagiarism is theft and people cannot steal from their own work. But, this is not correct in law. And there are circumstances, such as insurance fraud(保险欺诈), etc., when it is possible to steal from oneself.
Self-plagiarism, however, must be carefully distinguished from the recycling of one’s work that to a greater or lesser extent everyone legally does. Self-plagiarism in academic(学术的)publications is a gray area. However, many universities indirectly recognize the practice as deceptive. They publish rules preventing students from handing in basically the same essay for credit in different courses. There are also rules against someone handing in the same graduate thesis to different universities. Among established academics, self-plagiarism is a problem. It means basically the same article or book is handed in on more than one occasion for salary raising or promotion.
Like all plagiarism the essence of self-plagiarism is the author’ attempts to cheat the reader. This happens when no indication is given that the work is being recycled or when an effort is made to disguise the original text. For example, an author just makes cosmetic changes to make the same article, chapter, or book look different. But actually it remains unchanged in its central argument. In this case, disguising a text occurs. Authors change such things as paragraph breaks, capitalization, or the substitution of technical terms in different languages. What he has done is to make readers believe they are reading something completely new. This practice is self-plagiarism.
The word "cosmetic" in the last paragraph means ______.
选项
A、beautiful
B、detailed
C、surface
D、general
答案
C
解析
语义理解题。本题询问的是最后一段中cosmetic一词是什么意思。根据最后一段内容可知作者伪装原来文本的手段是保留原文的中心论点,做出一些改动使文本看起来不同。据此我们可知作者做出的改动不是实质上的,只是肤浅的、表面的。因此,选项C(表面的)与文中cosmetic一词的意思相符,为正确答案。
