Question

Once a man came to a smart man’s house and said, “I have many bad habits. Which one of them should I give up        ?” The wise man said, “Never tell lies (謊言) and always speak the truth.” The man promised (承諾) to do        and went home.
At night the man was about to go out to steal (偷). Before leaving, he        for a moment about the promise he made to the wise man. “If he asks me where I have been, what shall I say? Shall I say I        stealing? No, I cannot say that. But nor can I lie. If I tell the truth, everyone will start        me and call me a thief. I would be punished for stealing.” So the man made a decision not to steal that night, and gave up this bad habit.
Next day, he wanted to drink wine. When he was about to do so, he said to himself, “What shall I say to the wise man if he asks me        I did during the day? I cannot tell a lie.” And so he gave up the        of drinking wine.
      , whenever the man thought of doing something bad, he remembered his promise to tell the truth at all times. One by one, he gave up all his bad habits and became a very        person.
Telling the truth is a very good habit. If you always speak the truth, you can save yourself from a lot of        and become a person whom everyone likes and favors.
Make a promise: I shall always speak the truth.
