  4. Your neighbor runs into her house screaming, blood dripping down her arm. Five minutes later a man with a bloody machete comes running down the street and stops and asks you where she went. You answer honestly “in her house.”
  5. Margarita spoke with her family and they all agreed that they would let her take the medication that would allow her to die peacefully instead of in pain.
  6. Souerette watched over the children in the daycare meticulously. She knew which children she could trust alone because of their behaviors with each other.
  7. He does not have the right character and temperament to be a state governor. He avoided service by faking a medical condition, he rarely tells the truth, he eats and drinks too much, and he has little patience with people.
  8. Patient autonomy and free choice are morally correct.
  9. I believe that it is perfectly fine to lie about some things.
  10. Wearing a mask when engaging with the public is the right decision because it protects the welfare of those in your community.
