The measure of a man's real character is what he would do if he knew he would never be found out. ---Thomas Macaulay

Some thirty years ago, I was studying in a public school in New York. One day, Mrs Nanette O'Neill gave an arithmetic 36  to our class. When the papers were 37  she discovered that twelve boys had made exactly the same mistakes throughout the test.

There is nothing really new about 38 in exams. Perhaps that was why Mrs O'Neill didn’t even say a word about it. She only asked the twelve boys to 39  after class. I was one of the twelve.

Mrs O'Neill asked 40  questions, and she didn't 41  us either. Instead, she wrote on the blackboard the 42  words by Thomas Macaulay. She then ordered us to  43  these words into our exercise-books one hundred times.

I don't know about the other eleven boys. Speaking for 44  I can say:it was the most important single 45  of my life. Thirty years after being introduced to Macaulay's words, they 46  seem to me the best yardstick(准绳), because they give us a way to _47____ourselves rather than others.

48  of us are asked to make 49 decisions about nations going to war of armies going to battle. But all of us are called 50  daily to make a great many personal decisions. 51  the wallet, found in the street, be put into a pocket or turned over to the policeman? Should the 52  change received at the store be forgotten or 53 ? Nobody will know except 54 . But you have to live with yourself, and it is always 55  to live with someone you respect.
