14、r telling a white lie is to try to make others feel better. However, when we lie and say that someones haircut looks good, or when we say that we love a meal that we secretly hate, are we really hoping to improve the situation for someone else?

Lets work in pairs and make a summary of this article following the structure of an essay. Listen to the tape and imitate the

31、 pronunciation and intonation. Application Pair work! Lets work in pairs and make a summary of this article following the structure of an essay. Introduction Main body Conclusion Application We all know that honesty is an important value and lying is wrong, but almost all of us have the experience o

32、f telling lies. Perhaps we comfort ourselves with the knowledge that most of the lies we tell are “white lies”: little lies that we tell to protect others from the truth. However, we cant always justify the white lies we tell. For one thing, we might argue that we tell white lies to try to make othe

33、rs feel better. For example, the majority of us will lie and say that the food is “delicious” when we are Application served with something we dont like by someone we value. Or we are very likely to say its “great” if we are asked for the idea of someones new haircut, even if we actually think its a

34、wful. In these situations, perhaps what we do is just to protect ourselves from the disappointment and anger of others. For another, we also argue that we tell white lies to encourage others. We probably will say its “wonderful” if someone asks us for our opinions about their singing, even if we mig

35、ht secretly think Application our cats can sing better. But what if our friend wants some sincere comments from us or they are just considering whether they should look for a new hobby? So in this situation, our white lies might actually mislead them and even harm them. Whats more, we may still argu

36、e that we tell white lies to protect others from bad news. But how can we know they wont want to listen to us and understand our feelings? Application Actually when we first practice to deceive, even if we just tell little white lies, we may still find us in a big tangled web, which may result in un

37、predictable consequences. If you dont want to be served with the food you dont like any more, lose trust of your friends, get misunderstood all the time, or be hidden from the truth by the people closest to you, lets stop for a moment and reconsider the issue whether we should tell “white lies” in t

38、he future any longer. Little white lies are not little. Application Pair work! Lets work in pairs and make a television talk show based on the ideas of this article. Student A: the host 1. Greet the audience and introduce the topic and the guest; 2. Ask some questions prepared; 3. Make a conclusion

39、in the end. Student B: the author, Dr. Brown Application A: Good evening, everyone! Welcome to this TV talk show. Today, well talk about “white lies”, which is a hot topic these days. We are so lucky to have invited Dr. Brown here to share some of his ideas on this issue. Great, Dr. Brown, would you

40、 introduce yourself to us? B: Hi, there! Im Dr. Brown, and Im a psychologist and Im looking into this issue these days. Application A: Great, Dr. Brown, I just read an article titled “Little white lies” from you. I quite agree with you that most of us tend to comfort ourselves with the knowledge tha

41、t most of the lies we tell are white lies. White lies are different from lies, right? B: Yeah, they are different, and most of the white lies are told to the people we value, to some extent out of good purpose. But we cannot justify all of them. Application A: Well, can you explain it? Why is it dif

42、ficult to justify them? B: Of course, we may tell white lies to make others feel better, but we may actually try to say some good words to protect ourselves from the disappointment and anger of others. We may also tell white lies to encourage others, but we thus mislead others and even lose the trus

43、t of others once we are found not telling the truth. Do you agree? Application A: Youve got a point. Whats more, we may never get understood if we always try to hide our feelings from the people closest to us, even if we just want to protect them from the bad news. White lies are also harmful. B: Th

44、ats right. White lies are also lies. Lies can only make the web even more tangled. White lies wont make it better. A: So little white lies are not little. To transfer Group work!
