Rewrite the paragraph below into simple present tense.

Answer 1

Answer:

Professions develop ethical standards and codes for a number of reasons. First, ethical standards help reassure the public, particularly law-makers, that the field can regulate itself and does not need others outside of the profession to make laws to govern the practice of that profession in order to protect the public's interests.

This improves people's perception of and trust in the profession and consequently increases business. To put it simply, ethical standards increase the professionalism of the profession.
