I would like to describe a situation that contained one of the most important pieces of advice I ever received. When I was studying in school, I often let other students cheat from my notebook. One of my teachers said that it isn't useful and that I mustn't do this. I thought, why mustn't I do this? I continued to let them cheat and write off. I believed that the more I let others cheat, the more they would like me and trust me. Later, I realized that I was wrong and my teacher was right. Because other students, without their personal knowledge, cannot pass any exam. If they often write off and cheat, they will not be successful during their exams.
