When I was a law professor, a student reported that I made an error in grading his exam by giving him too many points.He was41and after thanking him for his honesty, I changed the grade in my42. His beaming(欢笑的)face turned to shock."You're43 my grade?" he said angrily."I would never have come in44 …"

He didn't finish the45_ , but it was obvious that his display of honesty was46_ .He thought he'd have it all —praise and the higher grade.

Several colleagues thought I should have let the higher grade47because all I'd accomplished was to discourage him from being48in the future.And every time I tell this story, some people agree to this 49

But I can't see how I could give good reason for worsening my_ 50in grading by undermining(损害) the honesty of all my grades by failing to51an error.The grade itself would be a dishonest52of his knowledge and it would have been53to other students.How could I54give a student a gift of an unearned grade?

I know55reporting an error in one's favor is unusual, but, like56_ too much change, it's clearly the right thing to do.People of character, those with real honesty, hate to give up57as much as anyone else.The difference is that for them a good conscience and reputation is58

enough to give reason for the cost of doing the right thing.

Perhaps lowering the student's grade did59him from being honest in the future, but bribing(贿赂)him to be honest so that he does the right thing when its cost-free would have 60him even more.The duty to be honest is about right and wrong, not risks and rewards.
