It pays to Be Honest

　　Although honesty is believed to be a virtue, there are still dishonest people in our society. For example, some businessmen sell fake product to their consumers; some students cheat in the exams.

　　Dishonest people are short-sighted. Those who sell fake products may make money at first, but consumers won t buy their products any more. As a result, they will lose their fortune or even be sent to prison. By contrast, honest people gain a lot.

　　Those who always tell truth or keep to their promise not only let others trust them but gain respect from other people as well. Such persons are sure to have a lot of good friends. Because they are trustable and respectable, everyone is eager to make friends with them, Besides, it is easier for a person with a good record to get a good job. Generally speaking, every employer wants his employees to be honest. So we can say that anyone who is honest will be paid back later.

　　In a word, honesty wins trust, respect and honor. So it is important that we should be honest.
