In a national spelling contest in America, an 11-year-old girl was asked to spell a certain word. But with her soft voice the judges were not sure if she spelled the word with the letter A or E. __1__ At that time, the girl knew she had misspelled the word. But instead of lying and telling the judges she had said the correct letter, she told the truth that she had said the wrong letter. __2__.

As the girl walked off the stage, the entire audience stood on their feet clapping to applaud her honesty. Later, dozens of newspaper wrote about this 11-year-old girl’s courage and honesty, even when it cost her the contest. __3__

Probably the biggest test of our character and honesty is what we would do if we knew we would never get caught.

This young girl could easily have lied, and nobody would have known it but her. But that’s just it: She would know she did wrong. __4__

This young girl was strong and smart enough to prize her own conscience and character more than the prize from a spelling contest. Her respect for herself was more important than any respect others might give her for winning a contest. She knew she would have to live with herself and the choice she made at the moment.

__5__

A.So she won the contest.

B.As a result, she lost the contest.

C.The judges wanted to give her another chance.

D.It’s been said, “If you cheat, you make yourself cheap.”

E. It’s so true that the choices you make today make what you are tomorrow.

F. They talked it over and finally decided to simply ask her what she had said.

G. But the fact is that she won the biggest contest that day: the contest of her character.

 

【答案】

 F

 B

 G

 D

 E

【解析】本文講述了在一個全國單詞競賽中發(fā)生的一個誠實的小姑娘的故事。她本來有機會糾正自己的錯誤答案,贏得比賽,而她誠實地說出了本來錯誤的答案,輸了比賽,卻贏得了別人的尊重。

 根據(jù)后面她沒有撒謊,而是講了實話,可知評委們討論后,決定讓她復(fù)述一下剛才的單詞。

 由于說了實話,她輸了比賽。

 許多報紙報道了他的勇氣和誠實,雖然她輸了比賽,但是事實她贏得了人格的上的勝利。

 雖然如果他撒謊沒有人知道,但她自己會知道自己做錯了。自己會告訴自己,如果你作弊,你就會使得自己被看不起。

 最后得出一個道理,今天你所做的選擇將鑄就你的明天這句話是正確的。

  ●Relax.  5   Of course you can’t get up and move around in the middle of a test, but you can wiggle(扭動)your fingers and toes, take four or five deep breaths, or picture yourself on a beach or some calm place.
