They didn't do right because they didn't show their work and everything else was right. It wasn't done right entirely.

When You Tell One Lie

When you tell one lie, it leads to another
So you tell two lies to cover each other
then you tell three lies and, Oh brother,
you're in trouble up to your ears!

So you tell four lies to try to protect you
Then you tell five lies so folks won't suspect you
Then you tell six lies and you'll collect
A life filled with worries and fears

'Cause you can't remember how many lies you've told
And half the things you say aren't true
And sometimes you'll slip up, you'll trip up and then
Whatever will become of you?

So you lie and lie without even trying
And each you lie you tell will keep multiplying
'till the whole wide world will know you're lying
then you'll be
Suspected
Detected
Rejected
Neglected
Disliked
And you should!
When you lie, you're closing the door
On everything good.

"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined." 

-Henry David Thoreau

This is a really good quote by Henry Thoreau. To me this quote means to always follow your dreamsWith a lot of anticipation in whatever it is that you will like to accomplish. What I think he means by saying 'live the life that you have imagined' is to practice our dreams and get them accomplish so that way we can live the experience of what we always dram of. For example, if we read our 100+ goals everyday, we already have a direction in which we are trying to go or reach. Once we have completed or reach that goal, we are already living the life we were imagining.
