The boy and his father looked at the handsome fish. It was 8 p.m.— two hours before the season opened.
"You’ll have to put it back, son,"he said.
"Dad!"cried the boy.
"There will be other fish,"said his father.
"Not as big as this one,"cried the boy.
He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats were anywhere around in the moonlight. But the boy could tell by his father’s voice that the decision was not changeable. He slowly put it into the black water.
The bass disappeared. The boy suspected that he would never again see such a large fish.
That was 34 years ago. Today, the boy is a successful architect in New York City. He often takes his own son and daughters to fish from the same dock.
He has never again caught such a large fish as the one he landed that night. But he does see that same fish 梐gain and again ?every time he comes up against a question of ethics.
As his tyfather taught him, ethics are simple matters of right and wrong. But it is only the practice of ethics that is difficult. Do we do right when no one is looking? If we were taught to put the fish back when we were young, we would have learned the truth. The decision to do right lives fresh in our memory.
25. Which statement can be used to describe his farther?
A. Honest.
