3.阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项。
When I was a law professor, a student reported that I made an error in grading his exam by giving him too many points. He was right , and after thanking him for his honesty, I changed the grade in my 1 . His beaming face turned to shock. “You’re 2 my grade?” he said angrily. “I would never have come in if ……”
He didn’t finish the sentence , but it was obvious that his display of honesty was 3 . He thought he’d have it all—praise and the higher grade. Several colleagues thought I should have let the higher grade 4 because all I’d accomplished was to discourage him from being honest in the future. And every time I tell this story some people agree with this 5 .
4
But I can’t see how I could give good reason for worsening my 6 in grading by undermining (损害) the honesty of all my grades by failing to correct an error. The grade itself would be a dishonest 7 of his knowledge and it would have been 8 to other students. How could I 9 give a student a gift of an unearned grade?
I know 10 reporting an error in one’s favor is unusual, but, like 11 too much change, it’s clearly the right thing to do. People of character, those with real honesty, hate to give up 12_ as much as anyone else. The difference is that for them a good conscience and reputation is _13 enough to give reason for the cost of doing the right thing.
Perhaps lowering the student’s grade did 14 him from being honest in the future, but bribing （贿赂） him to be honest so that he does the right thing when it’s cost-free would have _15 him even more. The duty to be honest is about right and wrong, not risks and rewards. 1. A. files
D. notes
B. correcting
C. changing
D.
B. books
C. records
2. A. lowering making 3. A. good
B. false C. special
D. impressive
B. change
C. stand
4. A. remove
D. add
B. complaint
C. praise
D.
5. A. remark achievement 6. A. crime guilty
7. A. reaction
8. A. unfair
B. mistake C. doubt D.
B. sense D. reflection B. cruel D. funny
C. sign
C. tough

B. secretly
C. impossibly D.
C. voluntarily D.
