　　解析：

　　今年这次的四级内容很有人文气息，作文刚刚考了“坚持才会有成功”，快速阅读就来了“考试诚信不作弊”。 通篇来看，文章难度不太大，通读小标题以后，带着题干的关键词就能定位到原文。这一点，相信四级班的老师已经强调过很多遍了，好的，闲话不多说，我们来看解析。

　　1. 答案： A) sticks to them in their daily life

　　第一题的答案就在全文第一句。

　　关键词：not only…. But also….

　　关键句： The key to integrity is consistency--not only setting high personal standards for oneself (honesty, responsibility, respect for others, fairness) but also living up to those standards each day.

　　这里的live up to 和 选项里的 stick to 属于同义替换。

　　2. 答案：C) It is the basis of mutual trust

　　关键词：personal and professional

　　定位句： Trust is essential in any important relationship, whether personal or professional. Who can trust someone who is dishonest or unfair? Thus, integrity must be one of our most important goals.

　　结合紧接着的问句，我们很容易锁定trust这个选项。

　　3. 关键词：identify the risks

　　关键句：Making ethical decisions is a critical part of avoiding future problems. We must learn to recognize risks, because if we can't see the risks we're taking, we can't make responsible choices.

　　答案很明显：make responsible choices

　　4. 关键词：misconduct

　　关键句：But the fact that such a violation is "unintentional" does not excuse the misconduct.

　　和原文意义高度一致的，就是这个unintentional。

　　因此答案是：B. it is claimed to be unintentional.

　　5. 关键词：fool oneself

　　关键句：To avoid fooling yourself, watch out for excuses and try this test

　　这里的watch out for 和 选项里的avoid属于同义替换

　　答案：A

　　6. 关键词：regret later

　　关键句：Those who take risks they later regret usually focus on immediate benefits ("what's in it for me")

　　很明显，选项 value immediate benefits most 是正确答案。这里的value 和 focus on 属于同义替换

　　7. 关键词：get caught

　　关键句：Those who don't get caught pay an even higher price.

　　这里的higher price 和选项里的more dearly 属于同义替换

　　答案：A

　　8. 关键词：care about

　　关键句：I'm not interested in what you're trying to teach; all I care about is stealing a grade, regardless of the effect on others."

　　9. 关键词：rely on

　　关键句：We must rely on the honesty and good faith of others every day.

　　10. 关键词：political and economic leaders

　　关键句：Watergate, have undermined the faith of many Americans in the integrity of political and economic leaders and society as a whole.

　　第8、9和10只要找到定位词，然后就能找到相关信息。

　　这次的快速阅读，通篇来看，只要找准信息，附近的词就是答案，连反义词都不用填，所以说还是比较简单的，今年的你，做得如何呢？欢迎来沪江社区吐槽~~
