世界上大部分甚至所有的文化和宗教都將誠實稱贊為一種美德。如果要劉局出我們希望能在朋友或戀人身上扎到的一些品質(zhì),很多人都會把誠實列在首位。事實上,很多人也行認為誠實是其他人的事,而與自己無關(guān)。但是考慮到撒謊和欺騙會帶來不良影響,我認為誠實會為自己帶來的是最大的利益。
一方面,不誠實對心里健康也會帶來嚴重的負面影響。不誠實的人即使他們尚未被“發(fā)現(xiàn)”,也會在心里承受內(nèi)疚感和羞恥感。這是因為,盡管撒謊是不道德的,不部分撒謊的人內(nèi)心深處還是有道德觀念的。另一方面,那些做出誤導(dǎo)或欺騙行為的人是遲早要被揭穿的。當(dāng)然,一次次的謊言也學(xué)都可能會僥幸不被發(fā)現(xiàn)。但是,一旦發(fā)現(xiàn),撒謊的人面臨的可能就是巨大的損失,甚至導(dǎo)致他們身敗名裂。根據(jù)欺詐的性質(zhì),有些人的謊言被揭露后,可能意味著失去工作,眾叛親離甚至有可能要蹲監(jiān)獄。
總體而言,雖然我們周邊的欺詐行為不可能被清除,但是我們可以決定自己是否要做一個誠實的人,城市到什么程度。考慮到撒謊帶來的不良影響——包括損害精神健康以及受到慘重的損失,毋庸置疑,做一誠實的人是我們唯一的選擇。
【參考范文】
Honesty is regarded as a virtue by most, if not all, of the world’s cultures and religions. Many of us, if asked to enumerate the qualities we seek in a friend or a partner, would place honesty at the top of the list. In reality, many people seem to think that being honest is for others and not for themselves. However, I believe that, given the negative consequences of lying and deception, practicing honesty is in our own best interest.
For one thing, being dishonest can have serious side-effects on our mental health. Dishonest people even if they have not yet been “found out”, are likely to carry guilt and shame inside them. This is because, although lying is an immoral, most liars still have a conscience deep down inside. For another thing, those who misleads or lie to others are bound to be caught sooner or later. Indeed, people may get away with lying once or even several times. However, the one time that they get caught could entail great loss, or even spell their downfall. Depending on the nature of deception, having one’s lies could mean losing one’s job, being deserted by friends and family, or even spending time in jail.
Generally speaking, while it may be impossible to eliminate the deceit that exists around us, each of us can decide whether, and to what extent, to practice truthfulness ourselves. Considering the adverse influence that lying can have—— including destroying our mental heath and , ultimately, causing us to suffer great loss—— it is apparent that honesty is our only viable option.
