　　It Pays to Be Honest

　　Honesty is the chief and most honored virtue in this country. Being dishonest is， for Chinese， a shameful thing. But， to my dismay， more and more people are seen engaged in open and rampant dishonest activities nowadays. It seems that people no longer cherish honesty. Students devise various strategies to cheat in examinations， write false resumes in job-hunting， etc…… Businessmen wouldn't stop selling fake and inferior commodities unless they are caught. Athletes desire to get an advantage over competitors by adopting stimulants. In a word， dishonest phenomena exist in every corner of the society.

　　However， I still value honesty because being honest benefits all of us. For instance， if businessmen are honest in product promotion or sale， their customers will get genuine satisfaction and will return to buy more， which is a win-win situation. We are partners in this interdependent world. If we could compete and cooperate in an honest manner， that is to say， on an equal footing， all of us would reap huge benefits and achieve greater success sooner or later.

　　In conclusion， it pays to be honest. I sincerely hope that people from all walks of life would be honest in their daily lives.

　　假设你在某日某时某地目击一起车祸，就此写一份见证书。见证书须包括以下几点：

　　1. 车祸发生的时间及地点2. 你所见到的车祸情况3. 你对车祸原因的分析An Eye-witness Account of a Traffic Accident

　　Yesterday afternoon， I happened to witness a terrible traffic accident on my way home from school. It was 5：30 p.m.， I was riding my favorite Giant back home. When I got to the last crossing on the Golden Lion Street， the red light was on. So I applied the brakes， along with a long queue of vehicles waiting to pass.

　　Just at that moment， a heavy-load truck with earth roared forward at my side and bumped against a private Accord of Honda travelling eastbound. As a result， the windshield of the lorry was broken into pieces and its driver got fatally wounded on the head on the steering wheel. The driver of the Accord and his girlfriend， the only passenger in the car， only got minor injuries， but his car lost its rear axel and two wheels and was totally dead.

　　As for the cause of the accident， I think the driver of the lorry should be held responsible： the light was red then； he should have stopped and waited. It was he who had broken the traffic regulations. In addition， the bad weather was part of the cause. It was drizzling then， and the road was quite slippery. Finally， drunk driving was probably an important factor. As the police discovered on the spot， there was a heavy alcoholic smell on the dead body of the lorry driver.
