In an international spelling contest（竞赛）in America, an 11-year-old girl was asked to spell a certain word. But with her 36 voice the judges were not sure if she spelled the word with the letter A or E. They talked it over and 37 decide to simply ask her what she had said. By now, the girl knew she had 38 the word, but instead of lying , she told the truth that she gad said the 39 letter—so she lost the contest.

As the girl walked off the 40 , the entire audience stood to their feet, clapping to applaud（称赞）her 41 . Later, dozens of newspaper reporters wrote about this 11-year-old girl’s honesty, even when it 42 her the contest. But the fact is that she 43 the biggest contest that day: the contest of her 44 .

Probably the biggest test of our character and honesty is what we should do if we knew we would never get 45. This young girl could easily have 46 and nobody would have known it but herself. But that’s just it: She would know she did wrong. It’s been said, “If you 47 , you make yourself cheap.” This young girl was strong and smart enough to prize her own 48 and character more than the prize from a spelling 49 .Her respect for herself was more important than any 50 others might give her for winning a contest. She knew she would have to live with herself and the 51 she made in that moment will have long-lasting influence.

It’s so true that the choices you make today 52 what you are tomorrow. Our children will 53 our behavior much more than our advice. So if we want them to 54 to be honest, we must show them the way by being honest ourselves. Remember, our kids are 54 what we do and how we live even when we don’t think they see or know.
