Planning notes for a GRE-style Issue essay include a possible benefit, a serious exception, and a need for a clear stance. Prompt: "A person's reputation matters more than personal integrity." Which thesis would best control the introduction?
A
Although reputation affects trust and opportunity, integrity should matter more because it guides conduct when no one is watching and should be judged as consistent action rather than private self-image.
B
The introduction should survey the history and ethics of reputation and integrity before forming any central claim.
C
Reputation has practical value, but integrity should matter more because it guides choices when no one is watching only if every affected group benefits equally, which makes the claim nearly impossible to defend.
D
Although a damaged reputation can limit trust and opportunity even for a principled person, it is impossible to decide whether reputation has practical value, but integrity should matter more because it guides choices when no one is watching without more information.
