(144 words) Moral choice is a conscious decision made by a person. Everyone makes this choice based on their moral values, conscience, morality.
In the text, Yu.Ya. Yakovleva actress Victoria Sergeeva faces such a choice. The guy who saved her life came to Moscow. He asks a woman to help, because in addition to her, she knows no one else in this city. But the actress refuses to shelter a young man and his sick father. Her moral values do not include gratitude for a saved life. She is not one of those who are ready to come to the aid in difficult times.
A similar moral choice is confronted by the hero of the poem A.T. Twardowski "Vasily Terkin." The soldier, not waiting for orders and awards, swam across the ice river and saved hundreds of lives, because the command received his report on time. He came to the rescue when it was needed.
As we see, moral choice characterizes the moral character of a person. Sometimes help can come from those from whom you do not expect this. Or vice versa.
An example from the literature: The hero of the story M.A. Sholokhov's “Fate of Man” also made a moral choice and, without hesitation, killed a traitor who wanted to give his commissioner to the Nazis. Andrei Sokolov rescued not only an honest prisoner who would be killed for his party affiliation, but also all the other soldiers whom the traitor could give out.
Literature example: Tatyana Larina, the heroine of the novel A. p. Pushkin's "Eugene Onegin", once rejected by a man, marries another. But later, the main character sees her and offers her a mutual feeling. The girl makes her moral choice - to remain faithful to her husband or to trust love. Tatyana chooses the first thing that characterizes her as an honest and decent person.
An example from foreign literature: In Mark Twain's book “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer,” the protagonist’s friend, Huck, makes a peculiar moral choice. He escapes from the widow of Douglas to his favorite home - an old barrel. But his faithful friend Tom helps him make the right decision, and Huck returns to live with the widow.
