　　My view on So-called promises

　　As can seen from the cartoon, a hen is making promises that her eggs are all round and consist of shells, egg whites and yolks. In our daily life, many people, just like the hen, keep making such promises in which they take duties and responsibilities as virtues to be proud of.

　　Such promises, absurd and ridiculous even at the first sight, come into being mainly for two reasons. First, some profit-driven enterprises take advantages of such promises to win people’s trust and understanding——their advertisements are intentionally misleading and their behavior is sheer cheating. Second, some organizations and individuals, obsessed with fame and success, are by all means publicizing their deeds, but actually they just assume their own duty.

　　These widespread empty promises will do great harm to people as well as to the whole society. They will result in a dishonest atmosphere in our society——people will lose mutual trust and become more doubtful. As a result, the economic development of our country will be hindered.
