Most Chinese people are quite familiar with the story of "The three wolves cries". We are taught to be honest when we are very young.
對于大多數(shù)中國人來說,對于“狼來了”的故事都十分熟悉。我們從小便被告知要為人誠實(shí)。
However, as we grow up, we find that it is difficult to be honest all the time. Sometimes, we are forced to tell lies, and other times, we find people who are dishonest can enjoy great pleasure while honest people have to suffer failures. And still there are times when we have to tell lies in order not to hurt others. Consequently, people wonder whether honesty is going out of style.
然而,在我們成長的過程中,我們發(fā)現(xiàn)要想做到永遠(yuǎn)誠實(shí)實(shí)在是非常困難。有時(shí),我們被迫去撒謊,還有些時(shí)候,我們發(fā)現(xiàn)不誠實(shí)的人得到了利益而誠實(shí)的人得到的卻是失敗。而且在一些時(shí)候?yàn)榱瞬粋λ宋覀儾坏貌蝗鲋e。因此,人們在困惑誠實(shí)是否已經(jīng)過時(shí)了呢?
As far as I am concerned, honesty should always be an important feature valued by Chinese people. We should try our best to avoid telling lies (even white lies). Only in this way, is a fair society awaiting us.
在我看來,誠實(shí)應(yīng)該成為中國人所推崇的一種品性。我們應(yīng)該盡量避免撒謊(即使是善意的謊言)。只有這樣,我們才能迎來一個(gè)公正的社會(huì)。
