阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Some people just can’t help but speak their mind and this level of honesty comes with its own benefits and pitfalls (隐患). Here are just some of the many things that only truly honest people understand about life.
Honesty is appreciated, just not always straight away. The honest individual understands what they say might not get the warmest of responses at first. 36 They also know that once the initial shock and upset have passed, the other persons are likely to thank them for not covering the truth.
Some people are afraid of honesty. 37 They do this to shield themselves from words that tear down the unrealistic they have built in their minds. Those who are naturally honest know exactly who these people are. They can spot them from a distance, but this doesn’t stop them from speaking their mind if the need arises.
38 Generally speaking, we all want honesty and integrity to popularize throughout society. We dislike hidden agendas, misleading information, and dishonesty. An honest person understands this better than most and will always try to encourage greater honesty through his or her own actions.
Secrets almost always find their way out. An honest person knows that almost all secrets—both big and small—will be uncovered eventually. The problem with secrets is that you have to repeatedly be dishonest with your words. 39 Honest people know this and so they don’t even try to cover things up with lies.
Honesty is refreshing. We too often keep ourselves from saying what the mind thinks, and so to meet a totally honest person is like a breath of fresh air. 40
A. Honesty builds trust.
B. Honesty is valued by society.
C. It may be emotionally painful to hear.
D. Sooner or later you will make a mistake.
E. Not everyone is quite so welcoming of honesty.
F. It can even lead to more honesty from other people too.
G. That’s why honest people do still choose their words carefully.
