But with her soft voice the judges were not sure if she spelled the word with the letter A or E.  小題1:   At that time, the girl knew she had misspelled the word. But instead of lying and telling the judges she had said the correct letter, she told the truth that she had said the wrong letter.  小題2:  .
As the girl walked off the stage, the entire audience stood on their feet clapping to applaud her honesty. Later, dozens of newspaper wrote about this 11-year-old girl’s courage and honesty, even when it cost her the contest.  小題3:

A.So she won the contest.
B.As a result, she lost the contest.
C.The judges wanted to give her another chance.
D.It’s been said, “If you cheat, you make yourself cheap.”
E. It’s so true that the choices you make today make what you are tomorrow.
