答案
Is Telling the Truth Always Better Than Telling Lies? We are all taught to be honest since childhood. We were made aware that lying was morally wrong and that good people always told the truth. Of course, as a general rule, we should be honest and sincere with others in order to gain the trust from them. However, it is practically unwise to be honest all the time. In some special situations, we had better not tell the truth. Telling lies is often a way of appropriate communication with others. For example, when we meet someone for the first time, we say, "Nice to meet you!" Perhaps actually we are not pleased to meet them. But this kind of expression is indispensable to creating a friendly atmosphere. If we really speak out the true feeling to any one we dislike, I’m afraid that we would not have friends any more. So long as we don’t hurt others, telling lies is an acceptable practice. That is why "white lie", telling a lie for good intention, exists in language. On the other hand, when we are dealing with dishonest people, to be dishonest with them does not hurt our credibility. In other words, telling the truth is not always better than telling lies. To sum up all the reasons mentioned above, it is not always reasonable to tell the truth. We should be flexible to the circumstances we live.
解析
这篇作文的中心意思是“说实话并不总是比说谎好”。虽然题目是疑问句,但很显然是引导考生就“Telling the truth is not always better than telling lies"进行论述。毕竟任何一个真理如果走向极端都是不正确的,诚实也是如此。文章可以首先肯定做人要诚实是正确的,同时指出“诚实并不是在任何时候都是明智的”。紧接着摆事实、讲道理,提出说谎是一种常见的社交行为,能够营造友好的氛围;而对不诚实的人说谎并不损害个人信誉,最后扣紧标题,总结出“说实话并不总是比说谎好”。如此,文章就紧凑严密,极富说服力。
