  Alex felt restless. Along with his sister Rosita and his friend Hugo, Alex had been waiting in the cave for nearly three hours 1 either an attack from the returning robbers or the 2 of a rescue party, but nothing had happened. He and Rosita had some 3 and a sleep, and now it was Hugo's turn to sleep after his meal. Rosita was 4 in the entrance to the cave keeping watch on the valley below. Alex threw himself down beside her.

  “I do hope Ruark is all right,”she said, her eyes on the view outside.“I keep hoping I will 5 him somewhere.”

  “I'm sure he's okay,”answered Alex.“I'm pretty 6 the enemy thought it was a ground 7 Anyway, they were too busy rushing to 8 in their jeep to 9 time firing at a condor(神鹰). I'm not worried about him. What I am worrying about, though, are the words on that 10 that was tied to Ruark's leg. I keep saying the words to myself.

  What about the cave? There's a two-meter hole at the back of it. No one will find it. There are so many caves...

  The money they stole is hidden somewhere out there and I should hate them to come back and 11 it from under our noses.”

  “Well,” replied his sister,“you 12 what the man said. There are so many caves. At a 13 , I can see about two hundred of them dotted around. It could take a week to 14 in them all.”

  “Yes. It's a 15 hiding place, but I think we have one clue(线索) that might help us. Ruark was perched(落) somewhere 16 enough for the tape to pick up their 17 . He was probably situated just above the entrance. Condors are not 18 tiny birds so he may have been on a shelf or an overhanging rock 19 enough to take his big feet and body.”Alex 20 closed his eyes against the strong light outside and tried to examine the opposite side of the valley.

When I was a law professor, a student reported that I made an error in grading his exam by giving him too many points. He was ___36___ and after thanking him for his honesty, I changed the grade in my ___37___. His beaming (欢笑的) face turned to shock. “You’re  38 my grade?” he said angrily. “I would never have come in ___39___ ……”

He didn’t finish the ___40___, but it was obvious that his display of honesty was ___41___. He thought he’d have it all—praise and the higher grade.

Several colleagues thought I should have let the higher grade ___42___ because all I’d accomplished was to discourage him from being ___43___ in the future. And every time I tell this story, some people agree with this ___44___.

  But I can’t see how I could give good reason for worsening my ___45___ in grading by undermining (损害) the honesty of all my grades by failing to ___46___ an error. The grade itself would be a dishonest ___47___ of his knowledge and it would have been ___48___to other students. How could I ___49___ give a student a gift of an unearned grade?

  I know ___50___ reporting an error in one’s favor is unusual, but, like ___51___ too much change, it’s clearly the right thing to do. People of character, those with real honesty, hate to give up ___52___ as much as anyone else. The difference is that for them a good conscience and reputation is ___53___enough to give reason for the cost of doing the right thing.

  Perhaps lowering the student’s grade did ___54___ him from being honest in the future, but bribing (贿赂) him to be honest so that he does the right thing when it’s cost-free would have ___55___him even more. The duty to be honest is about right and wrong, not risks and rewards.

36. A. wise             B. right             C. rigid             D. angry

37. A. files              B. books        C. records          D. notes
