In a national spelling contest in America，an 11-year-old girl was asked to spell a certain word. But with her   36   voice the judges were not sure whether she spelled the word with the letter A or E. They talked it over and   37   decided 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 had 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 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 that we would 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   55   what we do and how we live even when we don’t think they see or know.
