今天晚上经过地铁口时，看到让我不满的一幕。一个卖草莓的阿姨挑着扁担到处问从地铁出来的乘客要不要买她的草莓。看样子她已经卖了一天差不多卖光了，还剩下两盒。只见她不断地向经过身边的人兜售，说十块钱两盒。而别人不要的时候，她还要不断地追上去试图说服别人买下她的草莓。这本来也没什么，毕竟在城市生活的确不容易。但是接下来的一幕让我和周围的人都对这个阿姨投下鄙视的眼光。一个年轻的妈妈牵着一个小女孩的手准备进地铁，那个阿姨飞快地跑过来向她推销她的草莓。那个小女孩看到草莓后不停地叫她妈妈买，于是那位年轻的妈妈就停下脚步看看草莓如何。可是当她看清楚草莓后发现并不新鲜，更重要的是有些已经烂了，于是她说不买了，对小女孩说一会去超市给她买新鲜的。 这时候，那个阿姨居然拦着那位妈妈，不断地劝说她买下来给小女孩吃。见那位妈妈还是不停地摇头，她居然拿了一只草莓塞到小女孩的手里。小女孩年幼不懂事，看到喜爱的草莓放到手里想也没想就吃了下去。她妈妈想阴止也阻止不了了。于是， 那位妈妈被迫买下了草莓，但从她的表情我们可以知道她是很不情愿的。
很久以前，我那时还在深大读书时，我是很同情这些街边摆摊或者像那位阿姨一样挑着扁担到处卖水果的人的。这些人可能由于没有知识和文化，也没有资本，所以只能靠这样艰苦的小本经营来维持生活。在城市生活本来就不容易，更不要说在深圳这个物价几乎居全国之首的城市。所以，刚开始时我会光顾他们。特别是以前当我夜晚做完兼职回学校时，看到那些挑着扁担的阿姨到处对别人 “十块钱全部给你了”的时候，我会突然感到一阵心酸，然后忍不住帮她买下。要知道，在冬天寒风凛冽的夜晚里还挑着扁担到处卖水果真的很不容易。如果帮她买了，她就可以收摊回家了。而且我平时也很喜欢吃水果，可以说是一举两得。但是，结果却出乎我的意料。 有一次我买回一大袋外表光鲜的橙子回到宿舍后发现， 那些橙子里面要么干巴巴的，要么没味道的，连酸味都没有，像喝白开水一样。还有一次，我买了木瓜回去，发现里面是烂的。而更多的时候，我发现我买的东西是缺斤少两的， 而且缺得非常厉害，你买三斤最扣可能只有两斤， 甚至还不到！ 一来二去地上当受骗，让我对这些街边摆摊卖水果还有挑着扁担卖水果的人已经完全没有了同情心，只有冷漠。 从此我再也不向他们买水果了。
毫无疑问，这些街边水果的价格的确比超市和专门的水果店便宜不少，可是欺诈成分也太高了，要么水果质量有问题，要么缺斤少两的， 程度之深简直让人无法接受！我生平最讨厌欺诈的行为。你说你要是明码标价称足量给我，哪怕超市是五块钱一斤而你的是十五块一斤，我买了事后发现我也不会怪你，因为这是你情我愿的东西， 只怪我自己没有货比三家。可是，如果你缺斤少两或者水果本身就是坏的，那么哪怕超市十五块钱一斤而你的只有一块钱一斤，我也会很生气，因为这涉及到诚信问题，完全是你的人品有问题，让人无法接受！
其实，我觉得，一个人立世之本不在于他的知识水平或者能力有多高，而在于他的道德品格是否经得住考验。一个人可以贫穷，可以志短，但是绝不能缺德。和不讲诚信之人打交道是最痛苦的，因为这样的人会事事以己为先而不顾别人的死活，更不要说体谅和谦让他人了。对别人不诚信一次容易，而且或许你还可以占一些便宜，但是你会因为这一次而完全失去别人的信任，从此再也没有人愿意和你深交。大家只会对你不断地提防。这样做值得吗？ 这就好比借钱不还一样。你借一次钱不还，以后就不要想向别人借第二次了。 而在商业社会，不诚信的商人也很难经营，因为不断地欺骗顾客或者同行，他会渐渐变得臭名昭著，最后谁都不愿意和他打交道了。
其实， 很多人都和我一样，刚开始是很同情街边卖水果的人的，都曾经尝试着去光顾他们。但是被骗多了，心也就冷了。这就好比以前我们看到街边或者天桥上乞讨的残疾人或者小孩都会深感同情而捐一些钱给他们，可是后来发现很多都是骗人的把戏以后，我们就对这类人视若无睹了。其实，我不排除真的有人是这么惨的，但是因为欺诈分子太多了，而我们无法辨认，所以只好 “一视同仁”。最后的结果是，真正需要帮助的人因为那些欺诈分子而得不到应有的帮助。
我依稀记得1998年广东高考作文是以“诚信”为话题写一篇文章。当时这篇作文题曾一度掀起社会对诚信的热议，引发公众对诚信的思考。而如今，时光已过去十五年了，当我们再度提起“诚信”时，我们是自豪了还是惭愧了？ 每个人心中的答卷可能也不同了。

学生作业（雅思口语）
74, a miserable experience
It happened when I was 18 years old. I was going to graduate from senior high school and go to university. When I finished the college entrance exam, I felt good so I applied for the Zhongshan University which is one of the best universities in China. My parents hoped me to apply for another university which was not as good as Zhongshan University but I refused because I believed I would get a satisfying result and studying in the Zhongshan University has been my dream for a long time.
However, when I received my exam report, I felt very disappointed and distressed because my math’s score was much worse than I predicted. So I got a poor result and I couldn’t go to the Zhongshan University and even another school wouldn’t admit me. Finally I had to go to the third university which was much worse than the other two universities. My parents complained about me that I made them lose face. My friend whose score was not as good as mine went to a good university but I had to study in such a school just because I applied for wrong schools. I regret I didn’t follow my parents’ suggestion. I overestimated my abilities. From this thing, I learnt that before making a decision. I should do it according to my abilities.
75, a wild animal I dislike
I want to talk about a wild animal I dislike. I fear snack very much. I like watching animal shows in television so I always see such a moment. In the jungle, a great boa jumps and poaches its prey and twines it tighter and tighter. In this process, the prey was dead because it can’t breathe. Then the boa begins to swallow the prey. Besides the boa, there are a lot of poisonous snakes which have bright-colored appearance. If people were bitten by those snacks, they would be either sick severely or dead immediately. I was always frightened by these moments and had nightmare.
I remember once upon a time, I heard about a news happening in the zoo. There was a little boy, no more than 5 years old, mistakenly flowing through the wire entanglement, and going into the areas the boas lived. His parents couldn’t find him everywhere at the beginning and the zoo officers found that there was a boa whose body was greater than before. They guessed the little boy had been killed and eaten by the boa. After people killed the boa and opened its body, they found the little boy was in it as expected.
The news left me a very unforgettable impression and from that time on, I began to hate the snakes and fear them much more than before. |
