TOPIC: ISSUE43 - "To be an effective leader, a public official must maintain the highest ethical and moral standards."
WORDS: 550            DATE: 2007-7-18

Whether a successful leader requires maintaining the highest ethical and moral standards is a complex issue which is fraught with problems of defining ethics, morality and successful leadership. To facilitate working out this issue, we can consider from three special realms: business, science research and politics.

In the realm of business, effective leaders are those who generally make maximum profits for the firms. To achieve maximization of profit, some business leaders who do not care ethics and morality may do something that increases the profit rapidly in short term, for example, cheating customers with goods of weak quality.  This kind of deeds indeed can help make more money in short term, yet the customers would feel cheated and would not buy commodities from that store again resulting that the store has fewer customers and eventually decrease of sales as well as   profit. On the contrary, real successful business leaders are always honest, reliable, and never cheat their customers and partners. For instance, take Li Jiacheng who is the richest Chinese and the leader of Chinese businessmen as an example.  Li Jiacheng has gained highest credit in trade because he can always keep his promise to his business partners so that  famous corporations would like to cooperate with him and make maximum profit together. So successful leadership in business realm requires the leader maintain highest ethical and moral standards.

In the science research realm, a successful leader should be capable to complete the research project and advance knowledge in their studies with the least cost in shortest time. Most effective project leaders are scientists who take their research seriously and pursuit truth of nature. For instance, the research leaders in the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) work hard to advance knowledge in their fields of study. They report their results objectively and honestly so that they can make the most cutting-edge breakthroughs in all fields and therefore CAS becomes the top research institution of China. However, project leaders in some university made use of fraud results to bilk the government fund. Those dishonest scholars wasted money of taxpayers,   impeded the advancement of science research and were punished for their behaviors at last. In short, leaders of science research require being of high level of ethics and morality.

Although the leaders in the realms of business and science research require having the highest ethical and moral standards, whether the political leaders require doing so is not easy to determine. On the one hand, political leaders need to maintain highest morality and those who wielded their power by immoral means were about to lose their leadership, for example, Nixon and Hitler. On the other hand, political leaders have to violate some morality for the interests of the country, for example, lying to keep the highest secrets of the government, refusing to answer the array of the army and so forth. So political leaders should keep the moral and ethical standards and meanwhile have to violate them for the country.

In sum, maintaining the highest ethical and moral standards is necessary to successful leaders in realms of business and science research; or they would fail eventually. Yet in the political realm, leaders on the one hand should make decisions whether they would violate the standards of morality and ethics according to the special situations.

呵呵，跟北美范文写法一样.

In the realm of business,effective leaders are those who generally make maximum profits for thefirms. To achieve maximization of profit, some business leaders who donot care ethics and morality may do something that increases the profitrapidly in short term, for example, cheating customers with goods ofweak quality.  This kind of deeds indeed can help make more money inshort term, yet the customers would feel cheated and would not buycommodities from that store again resulting that the store has fewercustomers and eventually decrease of sales as well as   profit. Onthe contrary, real successful business leaders are always honest,reliable, and never cheat their customers and partners. For instance,take Li Jiacheng who is the richest Chinese and the leader of Chinesebusinessmen as an example.  Li Jiacheng has gained highest credit intrade because he can always keep his promise to his business partnersso that  famous corporations would like to cooperate with him and makemaximum profit together. So successful leadership in business realmrequires the leader maintain highest ethical and moral standards.
我觉得这一段论证的蛮好，但是还是没有说清楚什么是highest standards，既然第一段说了需要define，但是这一段却没有，只是直接的用了这样一个概念。

In the science researchrealm, a successful leader should be capable to complete the researchproject and advance knowledge in their studies with the least cost inshortest time. Most effective project leaders are scientists who taketheir research seriously and pursuit truth of nature. For instance, theresearch leaders in the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) work hard toadvance knowledge in their fields of study. （这一个例子不太好，和后面的分析没有对应性，不是只有cas的科学家才report objectively and honestly的）They report their resultsobjectively and honestly so that they can make the most cutting-edgebreakthroughs in all fields and therefore CAS becomes the top researchinstitution of China. However, project leaders in some university madeuse of fraud results to bilk the government fund. Those dishonestscholars wasted money of taxpayers,   impeded the advancement ofscience research and were punished for their behaviors at last. Inshort, leaders of science research require being of high level of ethics and morality.
这一段的后面又说了high level of .....，前面一段又说了highest. 两个概念混淆在一起了。

Although the leaders in therealms of business and science research require having the highestethical and moral standards, whether the political leaders requiredoing so is not easy to determine. On the one hand, political leadersneed to maintain highest morality and those who wielded their power byimmoral means were about to lose their leadership, for example, Nixonand Hitler. On the other hand, political leaders have to violate somemorality for the interests of the country, for example, lying to keepthe highest secrets of the government, refusing to answer the array ofthe army and so forth. So political leaders should keep the moral andethical standards and meanwhile have to violate them for the country.
这一段不错，但是写为什么不能maintian highest。。。。的时候可以更加展开一点

In sum, maintaining thehighest ethical and moral standards is necessary to successful leadersin realms of business and science research; or they would faileventually. Yet in the political realm, leaders on the one hand shouldmake decisions whether they would violate the standards of morality andethics according to the special situations.
整体觉得highest 和high的概念有些混了

Whether a successful leader requires maintaining the highest ethical and moral standards is a complex issue which is fraught with problems of defining ethics, morality and successful leadership. To facilitate working out this issue, we can consider from three special realms: business, science research and politics. 很别致的开头

In the realm of business, effective leaders are those who generally make maximum profits for the firms. To achieve maximization of profit, some business leaders who do not care ethics and morality may do something that increases the profit rapidly in short term, for example（such as!   for eg一般用来引导句子）, cheating customers with goods of weak quality.  This kind of deeds indeed can help make more money in short term, yet the customers would feel cheated and would not buy commodities from that store again resulting that(改从句比较好) the store has fewer customers and eventually （谓语呢？）decrease of sales as well as   profit. On the contrary（however比较好，on the contrary多用来说一个观点的俩方面）, real successful business leaders are always honest, reliable, and never cheat their customers and partners. For instance, take Li Jiacheng who is the richest Chinese and the leader of Chinese businessmen as an example.  Li Jiacheng has gained highest credit in trade because he can always keep his promise to his business partners so that  famous corporations would like to cooperate with him and make maximum profit together. So successful leadership in business realm requires the leader maintain highest ethical and moral standards.（李嘉诚这例子不错但最好举一个具体的例子，不行就编，要不总是感觉这样光说还是不够说服力，如果假设改作文的老外不知道李嘉诚呢？个人意见仅供参考。。。还有，李嘉诚的leader ship是通过什么来表现的呢）

In the science research realm, a successful leader should be capable to complete the research project and advance knowledge in their studies with the least cost in shortest time. Most effective project leaders are scientists who take their research seriously and pursuit truth of nature. For instance, the research leaders in the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) work hard to advance knowledge in their fields of study. They report their results objectively and honestly so that they can make the most cutting-edge breakthroughs in all fields and therefore CAS becomes the top research institution of China. However, project leaders in some university made use of fraud results to bilk the government fund.(前段时间有个韩国貌似是生物界还是什么领域的领袖级人物被发现学术抄袭，具体可以和我讨论下) Those dishonest scholars wasted money of taxpayers,   impeded the advancement of science research and were punished for their behaviors at last. In short, leaders of science research require being of high level of ethics and morality.

Although the leaders in the realms of business and science research require having the highest ethical and moral standards, whether the political leaders require doing so is not easy to determine. On the one hand, political leaders need to maintain highest morality and those who wielded their power by immoral means were about to lose their leadership, for example, Nixon and Hitler（？加句解释吧）. On the other hand, political leaders have to violate some morality for the interests of the country, for example, lying to keep the highest secrets of the government, refusing to answer the array of the army and so forth. So political leaders should keep the moral and ethical standards and meanwhile have to violate them for the country.（感觉这段有点仓促，如果是我，宁愿只说一点，但把举的例子分析一下，比如希特勒什么的）

In sum, maintaining the highest ethical and moral standards is necessary to successful leaders in realms of business and science research; or they would fail eventually. Yet in the political realm, leaders on the one hand should make decisions whether they would violate the standards of morality and ethics according to the special situations.

每次看你的文章都感觉很新颖，尤其是你这篇以具体证抽象的文章，呵呵，加油
