It is usually better to be honest than dishonest. Sometimes honesty may get you in trouble or hurt someone, but on the whole telling the truth is better than lying. However, there are many dishonest instances in our society. In the first place, many merchants cheat the customers. Take my neighbor, Xiao Wang, as an example. He bought a TV set with 2,000 yuan a week ago, but now it doesnt work. In the second place, some students cheat on exams in order to pass the exams or get high marks. Last but not the least, many rich professionals cheat the government by evading the taxes. Liu Xiaoqing, the famous film star, is a good case in point. On the contrary, honesty not only brings us honor and friendship, but also material gains. To begin with, if we are honest, we will be trusted by others, and the others trust will give us self-respect as well as social companionship. In addition, other peoples trust will also bring us instrumental support—financial aid, material resources, and needed services. To sum up, it does pay to be honest.
