9. Is Honesty Going out of Style?
诚实过时了吗？
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.
对于大多数中国人来说，对于“狼来了”的故事都十分熟悉。我们从小便被告知要为人诚实。
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，在我们成长的过程中，我们发现要想做到永远诚实实在是非常困难。有时，我们被迫去撒谎，还有些时候，我们发现不诚实的人得到了利益而诚实的人得到的却是失败。而且在一些时候为了不伤害他人我们不得不撒谎。因此，人们在困惑诚实是否已经过时了呢？
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.
在我看来，诚实应该成为中国人所推崇的一种品性。我们应该尽量避免撒谎（即使是善意的谎言）。只有这样，我们才能迎来一个公正的社会。
