Through our lives, we can gain a lot and lose so much. But being honest should always be with us, as honesty is always regarded as a virtue. Every time I talk about the topic, something crowds in my mind as if it had just happened.
I was 16 when one morning, Dad told me I could drive him to Mijas and then take the car in a nearby garage to get it serviced. At that time, I had just passed the driving test, and I hardly had a chance to use the car, so I said yes without hesitation.
I drove my father to Mijas, promising to pick him up again at 4 pm, then I went to a
nearby garage, and put the car in there. Since I had several hours to spare, I decided to go to a movie theater near the garage to see the movie. However, I was so absorbed in the plot of the movie that I forgot the time. When the last movie finished, I looked at my watch： 6 pm. I was two hours late!
I thought my father would be very angry if he knew what I was doing. And he would never let me drive again. So I decided to make up an excuse. Then, I drove to the appointed place, my father was sitting in a corner, waiting patiently. I first apologized for being late, then told him that I wanted to get there as soon as possible, but that something was wrong with some of the main parts of the car.
I would never forget the way he looked at me. “I'm very disappointed that you thought you had to lie to me, Jason.” My father looked at me again and said, “When you didn't show up on time, I called the gas station and asked if there was anything wrong They told me you never picked up the car. So, you see, I know there's nothing wrong with the car at all."
Paragraph 1
A wave of guilt swept over me and I had to admit the fact that I had gone to the movies and that was the real reason why I was late.

How much is a child's future success determined by born intelligence? Most guess around 25 percent, even 50 percent. 1. So if IQ is only a minor factor in success, what is it that separates the low earners from the high ones?
Science doesn't have a definitive answer, although luck certainly plays a role. But another key factor is personality. Financial success was correlated with conscientiousness, a particular quality in your personality marked by diligence, perseverance and self-discipline.
Grades at school and achievement-test results were markedly better predictors of adult success than raw IQ scores. 2.After all, don't they all measure the same thing? Not quite. Grades reflect not just intelligence but also " non-cognitive skills ", such as perseverance, good study habits and the ability to collaborate. Personality counts.
3. A research suggests childhood interventions （介入）can be helpful, and that conscientiousness is more malleable （可塑的）than IQ. Openness—a broad quality that includes curiosity—is also connected to test scores and grades.
4.Someone with an IQ of 70 isn't going to be able to do things that are easy for a person with an IQ of 190. But many people fail to break into the job market because they lack skills that aren’t measured on intelligence tests. They don't understand how to behave with kindness in job interviews. 5. Or on the job, they make it obvious they'll do no more than the minimum, if that.
A.IQ still matters, of course.
B.That might seem surprising.
C.They may show up late or fail to dress properly.
D.How much difference between people's incomes can be tied to IQ?
E.But the data suggest a much smaller influence： about 1 or 2 percent.
F.The higher the better for IQ, and perhaps for conscientiousness as well.
G.Success depends not just on born ability but on skills that can be taught.
