But besides all this, honesty really is worth the effort.One clear reason for honesty is that lies are difficult to hide because they are harder to remember than the truth.If you make up a story, you have to remember all the details.22 . But if you promise to tell the truth, you will never have trouble remembering.This saves you effort and makes conversations less stressful for you.23 .

Business deals,friendship, family and romantic relationships all depend on trust.Honesty, however, doesnt mean that you have to say everything you think.25 . When you do that, you will feel more relaxed and enjoy stronger relationships.AThis will help you in every area of your life.BAnother clear reason to avoid lying is that lying can harm others.CAnd the more lies you tell, the more stories you have to remember.DSome people lie out of habit, without even realizing theyre doing it.ESometimes its best to remain silent if your words might hurt someone else.四、完型填空完形填空When Mr. Smith retired(退休), he bought a small_in a village near the sea.
