A little boy was visiting his grandparents on their farm. He was given a slingshot(弹弓）to   21 in the woods. He practiced and practiced but could never   22  the target. Becoming somewhat   23 , he headed back for dinner.
As he was returning, he saw Grandma’s   24 duck. Without thinking, he shot his slingshot, hit the duck right   25 the head and killed it. He was shocked and sad. Quickly, he   26 the dead duck in the wood pile, only to see his   27 watching. Sally had seen it all, but she said nothing.
After   28 that day, Grandma said, “Sally, you wash the dishes.” But Sally said, “Grandma, Johnny told me that he wanted to   29 in the kitchen today, didn't you, Johnny?” And then she   30 to him, “Remember, the duck?” Then Johnny did the dishes.
Later, Grandpa asked if the children wanted to __31__ fishing, and Grandma said, “I’m sorry but I __32__ Sally to help me make supper.” But Sally smiled and said, “Well, that’s all right. Johnny told me he wanted to __33__.” And she whispered again, “Remember, the   34  ?” So Sally went fishing and Johnny   35 at home.
After several days, Johnny finally couldn't   36 it any longer. He went to Grandma and   37 that he had killed her pet duck and asked for her   38 .
Hearing this, Grandma knelt down, gave him a hug, and said, “Sweetheart, I know. You see, I was standing at the   39 and saw the whole thing from the house. And because I   40 you, I forgive you, but I was just wondering how long you would let Sally make you her slave.”

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 behaviour 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.
