美国公布最具诚信职业排行民调结果

　　Nurses continue to top Gallup's annual Honesty and Ethics survey released Friday and thus enjoy top public accolades for the eleventh straight year. Car salespeople, lobbyists, and members of Congress have the lowest honesty and ethics。

　　Eighty-one percent of Americans say nurses have "very high" or "high" honesty and ethical standards, a significantly greater percentage than for the next-highest-rated professions, military officers (73 percent) and pharmacists (71 percent)。

　　Meanwhile, lobbyists, car salespeople and members of Congress are considered to be the least ethical. Only nine percent of those surveyed say the members of Congress have high ethical standards, and just seven percent for the car salespeople and lobbyists, respectively。

　　Twenty-two professions are rated as follows: Nurses, military officers, druggists or pharmacists, grade school teachers, medical doctors, police officers, clergy, judges, day care providers, auto mechanics, nursing home operators, bankers, TV reporters, newspaper reporters, local officeholders, lawyers, business executives, state officeholders, advertising practitioners, members of Congress, car salespeople and lobbyists。

　　Results for this Gallup poll are based on telephone interviews conducted November 19 to 21, 2010, with a random sample of 1,037 adults, aged 18 and older, living in the continental US。
