打死我也决不说谎。每年5月2日，美国的孩子们都要举行各种活动，纪念这个具有特殊意义的日子诚实节。这个节日来自一个悲惨而真实的故事。许多年以前，在美国的威斯康星州蒙特罗市，有一个名叫埃默纽。旦南的男孩子。他五岁的时候，父母双亡，生活无依无靠，成了一个孤苦伶仃的孩子。有个名叫顿诺的酒店老板，到了不惑之年也没有孩子，便对旦南说：你到我的店里来吧，我收养你。等你长大些，也能帮我干活。顿诺老板在当地的口碑很不好，许多人说，他这样做只是企图讨个慈善的好名声。走投无路的旦南，非常高兴地认诺顿夫妇为养父母。他年龄虽小，但忧患和磨难使他变得格外懂事。每当他看到酒店有什么力所能及的活，总是抢着干。他对养父母也很尊敬,孝顺，一家三口，日子过得还算和顺。转眼之间，就过去了三年，旦南长到了八岁。他更加懂事，辛勤劳动，待人诚恳，彬彬有礼，是个人见人夸的好孩子。旦南渐渐发现，养父母总是挖空心思地算计怎样坑骗顾客，往酒里兑水，多收顾客的钱，可以说是家常便饭。他有时劝养父母，不要赚昧心钱。养父母非但不听，有时候还顺手给他两巴掌，骂他吃里扒外。久而久之，旦南成了他们的眼中钉，越看越不顺眼，加在他身上的拳脚也越来越多。一天晚上，劳累了一天的旦南躺下睡得正香，忽然，只听啊的一声惨叫，随后就是一片寂静，一点声音也没有了。旦南不知发生了什么事，连忙起床，蹑手蹑脚地走到养父母的房间，顺着门缝向里看去，把他吓得手脚冰凉。只见那个小来店里喝酒的顾客倒在地上，胸口上插着的尖刀还在轻轻地颤动。被杀的顾客是个比较有钱的商人，经常到店里来喝酒。养母站在旁边，搓着两手，不停地嘟嚷着：你杀了他，这怎么好？他死了，死了旦南看到这图财害命的可怕一幕，情不自禁地喊到：天啊，你们这是在干什么？养父听到后大惊失色，立即推开门，抓住旦南的头发，把他拖了进来。随后，一反常态，装出无奈而悲哀的样子说：孩子，你都看见了，这个商人喝醉了酒，竟然行凶，爸爸在自卫中失手杀了他，对吧？这把刀也是他带来的，对吧？明天警察来了，你就这样说。旦南像木头人一样坐在那里，眼睛一直没离开商人的尸体。过了好一会儿，他扑通一声跪在地上，把头埋在养父的膝盖上，哭着说：爸爸，你说得不对。我知道，是你杀了人。爸爸，我求你，快去警察局自首吧！那样，我们一家人才能都活下去养父气得脸色发青，抬起一脚把旦南踢倒在地，厉声喊道：你这个小杂种，想把爸爸送上法庭吗？快说，是那商人要行凶必须这样说，你要向我发誓！旦南捂着胸口，抬起头，说：不！我不能说谎，是你杀了人，你应该去自首啪！的一声，旦南又挨了一记耳光。养母也扑上来帮凶，拳打脚踢，随后又拿出一根绳子，把旦南结结实实地捆起来。接着，他们一起动手，把旦南吊到了楼板上。养父取来一根鞭子，啪的一声抽在旦南身上，说：好啊，你不说谎！那你就去死吧！死吧！旦南的头上，豆粒大的汗珠不断渗出来，但仍然很倔强地说：打死我也决不说谎！鞭子雨点般落在旦南身上，养母又取来一根棍子，没头没脑地乱打一顿，边打边问：快说，这商人是怎么死的？说对了就放你下来。旦南睁开黯然无光的眼睛，有气无力地说：是你鞭子,棍子再一次雨点般打下来，旦南浑身抽搐着，突然拼命似地喊到：不，我不说谎！打死我也决不说谎！此后，头就猛然垂到了胸前，一动不动了。养父母面面相觑，知道又闯下了杀人大祸。天网恢恢，疏而不漏。养父母的罪行终于暴露了，尽管他们在法庭上百般狡辩，但还是不得不供出事情的经过与真相。他们终因谋杀罪而被逮捕，并受到了法律的惩罚。www.rensheng5.com事后，威斯康星州政府为纪念这个诚实而勇敢的孩子，决定将他不幸去世的5月2日定为诚实节，并为他建造了一块纪念碑和一座塑像。那块纪念碑上镌刻着这样的话：怀念为真理而死的人，他在天堂永生。直到现在，每到5月2日，纪念碑前总堆满了表示哀悼的鲜花。每一个走过这里的人，都会由衷地向这无畏的诚实者表示敬意。大道理：有的人能在所有的时候欺骗一些人，有的人在一些时候能欺骗所有的人，但没有人能在所有的时候欺骗所有的人。诚实的人，永远会赢得所有人的敬重。
