In a spelling contest (竞赛), an 11-year-old girl was asked to spell a certain word. But with her      voice the judges were not sure if she spelled the word with the letter A or E. They talked it over and finally decided to      ask her what she had said. By then, the girl knew she had      the word, but instead of lying, she told the truth that she had said the      letter—so she lost the contest.
As the girl walked off the    , the entire audience stood to their feet, clapping to praise her     . Later, dozens of newspaper reporters wrote about this girl’s honesty.      she lost the contest, she      the biggest contest that day: the contest of her      .
Probably the biggest test of our character is what we should do if we knew we would never get    . This young girl could easily have     and nobody would have known it    herself. However, that’s just it: she would know she did wrong. It’s been said, “If you cheat, you make yourself    .” This young girl was strong and smart enough to value her own character more than the     from a spelling contest. Her     for herself was more important than any respect others might give her for winning a contest. She knew she would have to     with herself and the     she made at that moment would have a long-lasting influence.
It’s so true that the choices you make today make      you are tomorrow. Our children will follow our behavior. So if we want them to      to be honest, we must be honest ourselves. Remember, our kids are      what we do even when we don’t know.
