[00:00.00]The Importance of Being Honest 诚实的重要性

[00:05.73]On a Friday night,

[00:08.26]a poor young artist stood

[00:10.32]at the gate of the subway station,

[00:11.97]playing his violin.

[00:13.40]Many people put some money into the hat of the young man.

[00:16.56]The next day,

[00:18.10]the young artist came again,

[00:19.72]and put his hat on the ground gracefully1.

[00:22.25]Different than the day before,

[00:24.42]he took out a large piece of paper

[00:26.41]and laid it on the ground.

[00:27.83]Then he began playing.

[00:29.23]Before long,

[00:31.10]the young violinist was surrounded with people,

[00:33.74]who were all attracted by the words on that paper.

[00:36.35]It said,

[00:37.46]“Last night,

[00:38.55]a gentleman named George Sang

[00:40.51]put an important thing into my hat by mistake.

[00:43.03]Please come to claim it soon.”

[00:44.98]After about half an hour,

[00:46.97]a middle-aged2 man ran there in a hurry

[00:49.58]and rushed through the crowd to the violinist

[00:51.88]and grabbed3 his shoulders and said,

[00:53.76]“Yes, it’s you.

[00:55.27]You did come here.

[00:56.80]I knew that you’re an honest man

[00:58.89]and would certainly come here.”

[01:00.29]The young violinist asked calmly,

[01:02.93]“Are you Mr. George Sang?”

[01:04.80]The man nodded.

[01:06.21]The violinist asked,

[01:07.64]“Did you lose something?”

[01:08.96]“Lottery4. It’s lottery,”

[01:11.24]said the man.

[01:13.00]The violinist took out a lottery ticket

[01:14.86]on which George Sang’s name was seen.

[01:16.82]“Is it?” he asked.

[01:18.79]George nodded promptly5 and seized the lottery ticket and kissed it;

[01:22.40]then he danced with the violinist.

[01:24.38]The story turned out to be this:

[01:26.55]George Sang bought a lottery ticket

[01:29.07]which won him a prize of $500,000.

[01:31.58]So he felt very happy after work and felt the music

[01:34.98]was so wonderful that he took out 50 dollars and put in the hat.

[01:38.26]However the lottery ticket was also thrown in.

[01:41.09]Later someone asked the violinist:

[01:43.63]“why didn’t you take the lottery ticket for yourself?”

[01:45.93]The violinist said,

[01:47.99]“Although I don’t have much money,

[01:49.97]I live happily;

[01:51.15]but if I lose honesty I won’t be happy forever.”

[01:54.78]Through our lives,

[01:56.62]we can gain a lot and lose so much.

[01:58.93]But being honest should always be with us.

[02:01.87]If we bear ourselves in a deceptive6 and dishonest way,

[02:05.39]we may succeed temporarily.

[02:07.24]However, from the long-term view,

[02:09.76]we will be a loser.

[02:11.09]Such kind of people is just like the water on the mountain.

[02:14.80]It stands high above the masses at the beginning,

[02:17.74]but gradually it comes down inch by inch

[02:20.71]and loses the chance of going up.
