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.

Everyone has an ambition(志向) to travel. But those who cannot do so themselves might find it interesting to work in a travel agency (旅行社)，arranging journeys for other people. Brian Lawtey does this，working in a small travel agency in the industrial city. Most of his work is concerned with holiday，both at home and abroad. Every autumn，the agency sends out hundreds of booklets (小册子) full of attractive，colored photographs，describing the holidays that their customers will be able to have the next year. Soon，people begin to come into the office to book their holidays：perhaps a week’s skiing in Austria in January，perhaps a cruise (巡游) to the Caribbean in February，perhaps a seaside holiday in Spain in May，or a tour of Africa. Brian often has to advise people on what holidays will be suitable for them，and they always have a lot of questions. Last year，for example，a lady of eighty-two wanted to book for a mountaineering (爬山) holiday in the Alps (阿尔卑斯山)，and Brian had great difficulty in persuading her that it would not be suitable. In the end，she decided to go for a Mediterranean cruise instead.

Arranging journeys for people who have to travel abroad on business is often very complicated，but Brian enjoys this work. For example，last spring Mr. Perry，a director of a chemical firm，went on a business trip，and Brian arranged it all for him. First，Mr. Perry traveled to London by train，and stayed overnight in a hotel near the airport，because his plane left early the next morning. He flew to Frankfurt in Germany，where he spent the morning discussing business. Then he went on by train to Zurich (苏黎世)，where he stayed the night. After a meeting the next morning，he caught a plane for Tokyo，and spent three days there before going to America. He had business in Seattle (西雅图)，Chicago and New York，and stayed some time in each of those places. From New York，he flew back to London，and then got home by train. The next day he telephoned the agency to thank Brian for arranging everything so well for him.

There is a virtue (美德)in China－Respecting the  36 and care for the young”. About the above two aspects, we will discuss the former one in this passage.
Why should we  37 the old? because they are ahead of us in age, in wisdom and in experience. Our elders have done a lot for us, directly or indirectly and most of us   38  everything to their kindness and love.
When we show them respect, whether it is by bowing to them, or   39   them with a smile, or offering them any help they need, it is one way of   40  our own love and gratitude to them.   41 , elders have also been through all the years you are   42  and know a little more about the world than you do.
It is   43  that you do not agree with the belief of your elders, but this is nothing new. All younger generations have always   44  with their elders and it is these differences that bring changes in human   45 . However much you disagree with them, give them credit for their   46 .
With changing times and   47  influences, youngsters no longer know what is interpreted as disrespect to elders. Youngsters should   48  express their views and if there are arguments, they should not   49  their voices.
If there is no space on sofas or chairs, children will immediately   50  their places, and sit on the carpet. In buses and trains, youngsters are   51  to give up their places to older people. This is not a   52  of who has more rights. It is simply that those who are younger have the strength to bear   53 , or tolerate unpleasantness, so it is natural to show consideration to those who are older and perhaps at a   54  disadvantage.
When you do simple things as a mark of respect, elders become   55  that youngsters care for them, and they respond with affection and kindness.
