限时训练 54 The measure of a mans real character is what he woulddo 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 ONeill gave an arithmetic_21_to our class. When the papers were_22_, she discovered that twelve boys had made the same mistakes throughout the test. There is really nothing new about__23__in the exams. Perhapsthat was why Mrs ONeill _24__even say a word about it. She only asked the twelve boys to_25__after class. I was one of the twelve. Mrs ONeill asked__26__questions,and she didnt__27__us either. She wrote on the blackboard the__28__words by Thomas Macaulay. She then ordered us to __29__ these words into our exercise books one hundred times. I dont__30__about the other eleven boys. Speaking for myself I can say: it was the most important single__31__of my life. Thirty years after being introduced to Macaulays words, they__32__seem to me the best yardstick(准绳 ), because they give me a_33_to measure myself rather than others. _34__of us are asked to make__35__decisionsabout nations going to war or armies going to battle. But all of us are called__36__daily to make a great many personal decisions.__37__the wallet, found in the street, be put into a pocket or turned over to the policeman? Should the__38__changereceived at the store be forgotten or__39__? Nobody will know except__40__. But you have to live with yourself, and it is always better to live with someone you respect. 21．A. test B. problem C. paper D. lesson 22．A. examined B. completed C. marked D. answered 23．A. lying B. cheating C. guessing D. discussing 24．A. didnt B. did C. would D. wouldnt 25．A. com
