Passage Summary: The best reason to do something good is because of a high-level rule or principle, not because it helps you or because everyone else expects it.

Reasoning: The ethicist defines the highest level of morality as acting on pure principle rather than for personal gain or to fit in with society.

Analysis: We are looking for a scenario where someone acts purely because of a moral rule, specifically rejecting personal benefit or social pressure. If a character does the right thing even when it hurts them or makes them look bad to their neighbors, they are hitting the mark. Look for an answer choice where the motivation is described as an internal 'abstract principle' rather than 'what's in it for me' or 'what will people think.' It’s the difference between doing the right thing because you're being watched and doing it because it's right.
