Question

　　The measure of man's character is what he would do if he knew he would never be found out.

－Thomas Macaulay

　　Thirty years ago, I was studying in a public school in New York. One day Mrs Nanet O'Neill gave an arithmetic 1 to our class. When the papers were marked she discovered that twelve boys had made exactly the 2 mistakes throughout the test.

　　There is nothing really new about 3 in exams. Perhaps that was why Mrs O'Neill 4 even say a word about it, she only asked the twelve boys to 5 after class. I was one of the twelve.

　　Mrs O'Neill asked 6 questions, and she didn't 7 us either. Instead, she wrote on the blackboard the above words by Thomas Macaulay. She then ordered us to 8 these words into our exercise-books one hundred times.

　　I don't 9 about the other eleven boys. Speaking for 10 I can say: it was the most important single 11 of my life. Thirty years after being 12 to Macaulay's words, they 13 seem to me the best yardstick (准则), because they give us a way to measure ourselves rather than others.

　　 14 of us are asked to make 15 decisions about nations going to war or armies going to battle. But all of us are called upon daily to make a great many personal decisions. 16 the wallet, found in the street, be put into a pocket 17 turned over to the policeman? Should the extra change received at the store be forgotten or 18 ? Nobody will know except 19 . But you have to live with yourself, and it is always 20 to live with someone you respect.
