If young people want to be useful to society and the country, they must start with honesty and trustworthiness, be honest with people, be responsible for things, and develop good integrity and character.

What is honesty and trustworthiness? Honesty and trustworthiness means being loyal and honest and keeping promises. It is an important code of conduct in dealing with others. It has been regarded as a virtue in life for thousands of years. The so-called honesty means not telling lies. The so-called keeping one's word means keeping one's word, keeping one's word, being credible and valuing credibility. Honesty and trustworthiness have the same meaning and are related to each other. Honesty is the foundation of trustworthiness, and trustworthiness is the specific manifestation of honesty. It is difficult to be trustworthy if you are not honest, and it is difficult to say that you are truly honest if you are not trustworthy.

In daily life, honesty and trustworthiness are very important. The main task of young students is to study, and the main thing in life is to interact with others. There is a phenomenon of dishonesty and breach of trust among some primary and secondary school students. The dishonest behavior of a small number of teenagers mainly manifests itself in two aspects: lying and plagiarizing homework. As for the dishonest behavior of lying, one is lying in front of parents. For example, they lied about their academic performance and altered their performance reports; they made up lies to deceive their parents when they came home late after school to have fun; they made mistakes and hid them from their parents, etc. The second is lying in front of the teacher. Such as signing on behalf of parents, writing messages, writing notes, or asking classmates to write for them to deceive the teacher. The third is lying in front of classmates. For example, they brag about how rich and powerful their family is, and how high-end their food, drink, and clothing are. These dishonest behaviors show that a small number of middle school students have not yet formed correct values ??and good moral character of honesty and trustworthiness.

A survey showed that 36% of students lied to avoid being blamed or beaten by their parents. 17% of the students believe that lying in front of the teacher is out of loyalty. They believe that friends cannot be betrayed. They believe that multiple friends lead to multiple paths and multiple enemies create walls. They believe that classmates will resent and retaliate against themselves if they tell the truth. It is not good for oneself; some people think that speaking big words in front of the teacher can win the teacher's favor. Lying in front of classmates is due to vanity.

Plagiarism is a more serious form of deception. Plagiarizing homework is actually stealing the fruits of other people's work, which is a dishonest act and is very detrimental to learning. This type of behavior is common among middle school students. According to student questionnaire statistics, about 23.9% of students have experienced this behavior. This type of students generally has the following two situations: First, they ask others to do their homework for them, while they themselves enjoy the results. This kind of behavior mostly occurs during winter and summer vacation homework and when there is a heavy workload of homework. Some students even pay others to do it for them. The second is plagiarism, including plagiarism in whole and in part. There are many situations of this kind of behavior: students with learning difficulties are really incapable of completing homework independently, and are afraid of being criticized by the teacher for failing to complete the homework. Fear and fear of difficulties are intertwined, so they choose shortcuts that save effort and can be communicated to the teacher; Some students lack self-confidence and are afraid that they will do something wrong and plagiarize other people's homework; others copy homework in order to get high marks or win praise from the teacher. These students are mainly out of vanity and eager to save effort. They want to do their homework better, but they are unwilling to work hard.

A qualified middle school student should not be greedy for enjoyment, deceive teachers, or deceive parents, but should work hard and become an honest and trustworthy student. Doing things down-to-earth and being an honest person are the basic principles for doing things. For middle school students, doing things down-to-earth means studying hard and forming a scientific attitude. "Knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing, this is knowing." Plagiarizing homework not only deceives teachers and parents, but also deceives oneself. This is a distorted concept of honor and disgrace. Being honest means being authentic, sincere, telling the truth and being honest.
