剽窃抄袭

【背景知识】

有关“花儿”乐队《嘻唰唰》的版权问题被媒体炒得火热，而今年“3.15”维权行动的一个亮点是公众对学术界及艺术创作抄袭、剽窃等造假行为的关注。近年来，学术腐败、文艺抄袭等现象屡被曝光，如何还学术及文艺一片净土已成为一个亟待解决的社会问题。

请看《中国日报》的相关报道：As China marks the World Consumer Rights Day, the spotlight would inevitably be on poor products and shoddy service. But attention is also being focused on the rights of a special group of consumers: subscribers or readers of academic and literal journals.Plagiarismhave become rampant in China, and are eroding people's trust in academia and intellectual circles.

【解释说明】

报道中的plagiarism专指学术或艺术创作方面的造假行为，用英文可解释为：using ideas, plots, text and other intellectual property developed by someone else while claiming it is your original work（在自己所谓的原创作品中，偷用别人的观点和设计方案甚或抄袭文章段落）。Plagiarism由动词plagiarize衍生而来，举个例子，Half the ideas in his writing were plagiarized from an article I wrote last year （他这篇文章沿用的思想，有一半都是从我去年写的一篇文章里剽窃来的）。
