Answer :

answer:Quora is full of stories like these. One question was “Have you ever seen a classmate get completely roasted by the teacher in high school?” One of the answers: “Yep. One of my students had a middle school science project to do, a report on some aspect of astronomy. His topic? Mars. The science teacher called him up to her desk, and asked him if he understood the assignment. He said he did. She asked him if his report on the planet Mars was his own work. He said it was. She had him read it to the class. It was a single cut-and-paste internet article on the history of the Mars candy company, makers of Mars Bars, m&ms, etc. He’d copied and pasted into a Word document and failed to read even the first sentence.” Made me laugh a bit. More on that here.
