I know I should have told the headmaster at the time. That was my real  36 .

He had gone out of the study for some  37 , leaving me alone. In his absence I looked to see  38  was on his desk. In the  39  was a small piece of paper on which were written the  40  “English Writing Prize 1949. History Is a Serious of Biographies (人物传记)”.

A(n)  41  boy would have avoided looking at the title as soon as he saw the  42 . I did not. The subject of the English Writing Prize was kept a  43  until the start of the exam so I could not  44  reading it.

When the headmaster  45 , I was looking out of the window.

I should have told him what had  46  then. It would have been so  47  to say: “I’m sorry, but I  48  the title for the English Writing Prize on your desk. You’ll have to  49  it.”

The chance passed and I did not  50  it. I sat the exam the next day and I won. I didn’t  51  to cheat, but it was still cheating anyhow.

That was thirty-eight years  52  when I was fifteen. I have never told anyone about it before,  53  have I tried to explain to myself why not.

The obvious explanation is that I could not admit I had seen the title  54  admitting that I had been looking at the things on his desk.  55  there must have been more behind it. Whatever it was, it has become a good example of how a little mistake can trap (使陷入) you in a more serious moral corner (道德困境).

Dear Aunty,

I work at a supermarket, and another girl and I share tasks we must finish before leaving. But she takes half an hour to do something I can do in ten minutes. She always has a story to tell me and stops working when she does. My boss is angry at both of us, but It’s not my fault. I don’t want to rat on her, but what else can I do?

Flustered

Dear Flustered,

Let me propose a better way. Make a log of all the tasks you share, then suggest to your boss that for efficiency your duties could be divided into two separate checklists. If he’s reluctant, go to plan B: the next time this girl starts telling you a story, stop working to listen and call your boss over to hear what a great storyteller she is. I’m sure he’ll take it from here.

Aunty

Dear Aunty,

I’m a college student in the Philippines who wants to be wise with money. I’m not an economics or business major student and I don’t know anything about stocks. But I really want to buy assets and invest. I receive about 15,000 pesos（比索）every school term from my education plan. I don’t have any idea how I should spend it. I don’t want to just buy new clothes, or hang out with my friends because it would not be wise. I want my money to grow. Please enlighten me.

Fastbreakplay

Dear Fastbreakplay,

Being wise with money is the No. 1 thing to learn. Start with a disciplined and systematic savings plan. When your savings reach a sizeable amount, then you may start investing. In the meantime, invest in yourself by reading up on stock markets and capital markets. Follow the news. Before I started investing during my senior high school years, I had already studied stock market data of the past century as I believe markets tend to repeat themselves. If you master this skill, you will master your reading of the markets.
