诚实Be Honest

 Honest is something very important in the present society. As people are clever and clever and the temptation¹ is more and more, some people will lie to get what they want. This is not good. If you lie once, you will lie twice and then three times. That is not the end. You will lie easier day by day. Then you will become a person only telling lies. No one will trust you. How terrible! Although sometimes to be honest may make you suffer little losses, mostly are some insignificant² losses. As a result, you can earn others’ trust. Besides, if you always lie to others, they will do the same to you. How does a world will be? I think I don’t need to emphasize³ the importance of trust. Trust can make things totally different. Just to be an honest person for you and others. 

诚实在当今社会是非常重要的。随着人们变得越来越聪明，而且诱惑也越来越多，有些人会通过说谎来得到他们想要的东西。这是不好。如果你说了一次谎，你就会说第二次，第三次。第三次并不代表着结束，你说起谎来会变得越来越容易。之后，你就会成为一个满口谎言的人。没有人相信你。多么可怕！虽然有时候诚实会让你蒙受损失，但是基本上都是一些微不足道的损失。因此，你赢得了别人的信任。而且，如果你总是欺骗别人，他们也会同样对你。这样的话，我们的世界将变成什么样子？我认为我不需要强调信任的重要性。信任能让事情变得完全不一样。为了自己也为了别人，做一个诚实的人吧。
