There are many principles(原则) and values all people live by. The 76 that I live by is honesty. I have always been taught that lying will just get me into more trouble than I might already be 77 . Being honest is a 78 all people need to have and use to go 79 in life.
Ever since I was a little kid, my parents have 80 me to be honest 81 it is the right thing to do. As I got 82 , I realized something very important that could 83 the way people take me to be a person. If just once you stop being honest and tell a lie, it will 84 change people’s opinion of you and their whole way of acting 85 you. When you tell a lie, you lose that person’s 86 forever or have to work your whole life to get it back.
It is my personal 87 to achieve great things in life and honesty will sure help me get there. For me right now losing somebody’s trust would be a truly 88 thing. Whatever you do for a living or 89 you live, honesty is something important for all of us.
Honesty gets you much higher in life than getting into more 90 like lying . Lying can 91 get you into trouble dealing with the government. Honesty is just as important to me as my family. Already, I know it is something that will 92 my future and my relationship with all people. It is something about myself that I hope to never 93 no matter what happens. Most of all honesty will help me no matter whether I’m at school, home or just 94 with friends. It is something I hope my children will also have and 95 .

Stephen Hawking not only changed the way people thought about science, but he also changed the way people viewed 111 . Diagnosed (诊断) with motor neurone disease in his twenties, many of his scientific discoveries were made while his body was 112 .

Hawking once said, "My advice to other people would be: 124 things your disability doesn’t prevent you from doing well, and don’t 125 the things it interferes (干扰) with. Don’ t be disabled in spirit, as well as physically.”

I had 48 countless homeless people all day, but 49 , I was so drawn to this woman. I told my husband to please wait for just a moment and I tried to 50 get back across the street to talk with this 51 woman.
When I got 52 , I noticed that the woman — whose name I learned was Amy — had a cardboard sign. It read: “I am in need of winter boots and winter clothing items.”
Given the freezing temperature, I had been 53 dressed that day, wearing 4 shirts, 2sweatshirts, 3 pairs of socks, 2 pairs of gloves, a coat, a hat, a scarf, and my favorite new pair of winter boots.
I took off many pieces of the clothing items while at dinner and 54 them in my bag. As I spoke to Amy, I became 55 of what I had to do. I had everything in that bag that she needed. I handed her the bag of clothing and winter items that I had taken off. And I sat down with her, 56 my boots, and handed them to her. She said they were the best shoes she’d ever had.
The story, 57 , does not end there.
When I started to walk away in just my socks, Amy 58 me and said, “I don’t want your feet to be 59 . Can I give you my old boots?” I wore her boots all the way home with a sense of 60 that I had never felt before.

There are many principles(原则) and values all people live by. The 76 that I live by is honesty. I have always been taught that lying will just get me into more trouble than I might already be 77 . Being honest is a 78 all people need to have and use to go 79 in life.
Ever since I was a little kid, my parents have 80 me to be honest 81 it is the right thing to do. As I got 82 , I realized something very important that could 83 the way people take me to be a person. If just once you stop being honest and tell a lie, it will 84 change people’s opinion of you and their whole way of acting 85 you. When you tell a lie, you lose that person’s 86 forever or have to work your whole life to get it back.
It is my personal 87 to achieve great things in life and honesty will sure help me get there. For me right now losing somebody’s trust would be a truly 88 thing. Whatever you do for a living or 89 you live, honesty is something important for all of us.
Honesty gets you much higher in life than getting into more 90 like lying . Lying can 91 get you into trouble dealing with the government. Honesty is just as important to me as my family. Already, I know it is something that will 92 my future and my relationship with all people. It is something about myself that I hope to never 93 no matter what happens. Most of all honesty will help me no matter whether I’m at school, home or just 94 with friends. It is something I hope my children will also have and 95 .

Stephen Hawking not only changed the way people thought about science, but he also changed the way people viewed 111 . Diagnosed (诊断) with motor neurone disease in his twenties, many of his scientific discoveries were made while his body was 112 .
When Hawking studied at Oxford University, he had a 113 for being lively, humorous and popular. 114 , during his final year at Oxford, he fell over for no particular reason. When noticing his speech (说话的能力) began to be 115 , Hawking sought medical help. It was then that he was diagnosed with the disease. Doctors at the time gave him less than two years to 116 .
Luckily, he survived. However, after his diagnosis, his 117 failed quickly. Throughout the 1960s, he required a stick to walk, 118 a wheelchair for many years. It was only by the end of the 1960s that he 119 accepted he would need a full-time mobility aid (助动器).
Despite Hawking’s poor health, he made some important scientific 120 . It was in 1974 that he discovered what now is 121 as “Hawking radiation”. Later, in 1988, Hawking published his book A Brief History of Time.
It was his 122 — focusing on what was possible rather than impossible — that defined (定义) his public image. His books made science easily 123 for a wider public. Hawking once said, "My advice to other people would be: 124 things your disability doesn’t prevent you from doing well, and don’t 125 the things it interferes (干扰) with. Don’ t be disabled in spirit, as well as physically.”
