67. Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and assignment below:
引文: The advancements that have been made over the past hundred years or more are too numerous to count. But has there been progress? Some people would say that the vast number of advancements tells us we have made progress. Others, however, disagree, saying that more is not necessarily better and that real progressin politics, literature, the arts, science and technology, or any other fieldcan be achieved only when an advancement truly improves the quality of our lives.
引文: Heroes may seem old-fashioned today. Many people are cynical and seem to enjoy discrediting role models more than creating new ones or cherishing those they already have. Some people, moreover, object to the very idea of heroes, arguing that we should not exalt individuals who, after all, are only flesh and blood, just like the rest of us. But we desperately need heroesto teach us, to captivate us through their words and deeds, to inspire us to greatness.
Adapted from TPsychology TodayT, How To Be Great! What Does It Take To Be A Hero?
引文: People are happy only when they have their minds fixed on some goal other than their own happiness. Happiness comes when people focus instead on the happiness of others, on the improvement of humanity, on some course of action that is followed not as a means to anything else but as an end in itself. Aiming at something other than their own happiness, they find happiness along the way. The only way to be happy is to pursue some goal external to your own happiness.
Adapted from John Stuart Mill, TAutobiographyT

In these circumstances, it is better not to express our real thoughts and feelings. Whether or not we should tell the truth, therefore, depends on the circumstances.
