Gong Yixiu rejected all the fish brought him. He believed if he accepted other people's fish, he would have to accommodate himself to them. If he accommodates himself to them, he will break law someday and be removed from post. At that time, although he still loves fish, maybe there will be no one to bring him fish. Now he buys fish with his salary, it is very convenient although he has to pay for it himself. As long as he was not removed from the post, he had enouth salary to buy fish and had nothing to worry about. 鲁国宰相公仪休非常爱吃鱼，得知他这一嗜好的鲁国人纷纷拎着鱼，送到他家来。 公仪休对这些送上门来的鱼一概拒绝。 他认为，如果接受了别人的鱼，就会露出迁就别人的神气，一旦迁就，就会在行动上违背法令，这样做下，总有一天会被罢官。到了那个时候，尽管仍然爱吃鱼，却不一定有人再送上门来。 而现在用自己的俸禄买鱼吃，虽然花的是自己的钱，但非常方便。只要不被免职，充足的俸禄就可以用来买鱼吃，也不愁吃不到鱼。 A while back, there was a story about Reuben Gonzolas, Who was in the final match of his first professional racquetball(回力网球) toumament at match point in the fifth and final game, Gonzolas made a super "kill shot" into the front corner to win the tournament. The referee called it good, and one of the linemen confirmed the shot was a winner. But after a moment's hesitation, Gonzolas turned and declared that his shot had skipped into the wall, hitting the floor first. As a result, the serve went to his opponent, who went on to win the match. Reuben Gonzolas walked off the court, everyone was stunned. The next issue of a leading racquetball magazine featured Gonzolas on its cover. The lead editorial searched and questioned for an explanation for the first ever occurrence on the professional racquetball circuit. Who could ever imagine it in any sport or endeavor? Here was a player with everything officially in his favor, with victory in his grasp, who disqualifies himself at match point and loses. When asked why he did it, Gonzolas replied, "It was the only thing I could do to maintain my integrity." 从前，有一个关于鲁宾·冈萨雷斯的故事。 他正在参加第一次职业墙球锦标赛的最后一场比赛。鲁宾·冈萨雷斯向前角做了一个漂亮的扣杀，赢得了比赛。裁判认为鲁宾·冈萨雷斯胜了，边线员也确认进球算数。 但犹豫了片刻，鲁宾·冈萨雷斯转身并宣称，他的投球首先碰到了地板，然后才弹到了墙里。结果，对手得到了发球权，并最后赢得了比赛。 鲁宾·冈萨雷斯离开了球场，人们都惊呆了，下一期的一种重要墙球杂志用鲁宾·冈萨雷斯作为封面。该杂志的主编为职业墙赛场上第一次所发生的事情寻找答案。参与其他体育赛事或者比赛的人能想象这种事的发生吗?鲁宾·冈萨雷斯在赛场上一帆风顺，胜利在握。他自愿放弃获胜的机会，输掉了比赛。 当被问及这样做的原因时，鲁宾·冈萨雷斯回答道：“为了保持我的诚实，我只能这样做。” Lincoln was delighted to advocate the cases of those whom he knew to be wronged, but he would not defend the cause of the guilty. If he discovered in the course of a trial that he was on the wrong side, he lost all interest, and ceased to make any exertion. Once, while engaged in a prosecution, he discovered that his client's cause was not a good one, and he refused to make the plea. His associate, who was less scrupulous(小心谨慎的), made the plea and obtained a decision in their favor. The fee was nine hundred dollars, half of which was tendered(偿付) to Mr. Lincoln, but he refused to accept a single cent of it. His honesty was strongly illustrated by the way he kept his accounts with his law-partner. When he had taken a fee in the latter's absence, he put one half of it into his own pocket, and laid the other half carefully away, labeling it "Billy," the name by which he familiarly addressed his partner. When asked why be did not make a record of the amount and, for the time being, use the whole, Mr. Lincoln answered, "Because I promised my mother never to use money belonging to another person." 林肯非常乐意为那些他认为受到冤屈的人辩护，但是他却拒绝为那些确实有罪的人辩护。 如果在审判中发现自己的立场错误，就立刻都案件失去兴趣，不再辩护。 他参与了一起起诉案件。当他发现他的客户动机不良时，便拒绝为其申辩。他的一位做事不太谨慎的同事参与了辩护，并得到对他们有利的判决。辩护费为900美元，这位同事把其中的一半给了林肯，但是林肯一分钱也没拿。 林肯的诚实在下面的例子里得到最好的证明。他与他的伙伴记有详细的账目。但他的伙伴不在时，他仅拿走所得收入的一半，把另一半仔细地保存，写上同伴的名字：“贝利”。当被问到他这样做的原因，林肯回答道：“因为我曾经答应我的妈妈永远不拿属于别人的钱。” 看了“经典中学生英语美文”的人还看了： 1.初中生经典英语美文摘抄 2.中学生英语美文摘抄大全 3.中学生经典英语美文摘抄 4.适合初中生的经典英语美文 5.中学生英语美文摘抄精选 感谢您的阅读，祝您生活愉快。 本文来源：https://www.wddqw.com/doc/047dcff757270722192e453610661ed9ac515509.html
