Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)
Why Integrity Matters
What is Integrity?

honesty.
personal standards for oneself (honesty, responsibility, respect for
others,
fairness)
but
also
living
up
to
those
standards
each
day.
One
who
has integrity is bound by and follows moral and ethical standards even
when
making
life's
hard
choices,
choices
which
may
be
clouded
by
stress,
pressure to succeed, or temptation.
What
happens
if
we
lie,
cheat,
steal,
or
violate
other
ethical
standards?
We feel disappointed in ourselves and ashamed. But a lapse of integrity
also affects our relationships with others. Trust is essential in any
important relationship, whether personal or professional. Who can trust
someone who is dishonest or unfair? Thus, integrity must be one of our
most important goals.
Risky Business
We
are
each
responsible
for
our
own
decisions,
even
if
the
decision-making
process has been undermined
by stress or
peer pressure. The
real test of
character
is
whether we
can
learn
from
our
mistake,
by
understanding
why
we acted as we did, and then exploring ways to avoid similar problems in
the future.
Making
ethical
decisions
is
a
critical
part
of
avoiding
future
problems.
We
must
learn
to
recognize
risks,
because
if
we
can't
see
the
risks
we're
taking,
we
can't
make
responsible
choices.
To
identify
risks, we
need
to
know the rules and be aware of the facts. For example, one who doesn't
know the rules about plagiarism may accidentally use words or ideas
without giving proper credit, or one who fails to keep careful research
notes
may
unintentionally
fail
to
quote
and
cite
sources
as

Most people who get in trouble do know the rules and facts, but manage
to fool themseelves about the risks they're taking by using excuses:

else
does
it,

not
hurting
anyone,
or

really
need
this
grade.
Excuses
can
get
very
elaborate:

know
I'm
looking
at another's
exam,
even
though
I'm
supposed
to
keep
my
eyes
on
my
own
paper,
but
that's
not
cheating
because I'm
just
checking
my
answers,
not
copying.
We
must
be
honest
about
our
actions,
and
avoid
excuses.
If
we
fool
ourselves
into
believing we're not doing anything wrong, we can't see the real choice
we're making--and that leads to bad decisions.
To avoid fooling yourself, watch out for excuses and try this test: Ask
