14、one who uses the truth to deceive(欺骗)? When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out important information that should be included, he can give you a false pictureFor example, someone might say, “I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery(彩票). It was great. I took that dollar ticket
15、 back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!”This guy is a winner, right? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought $ 200 worth of tickets, and only one was a winner. Hes really a big loser!He didnt say anything that was false, but he left out important information on purpose
16、. Thats called a half-truth. Half truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest.Some officers often use this trick. Lets say that during Governor Smiths last term, her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs. Then she tries another term. One of the persons who don
17、t support her says, “During Governor Smiths term, the state lost one million jobs!” Thats true. However, an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smiths term, the state had a net gain of two million jobs.Advertisers will sometimes use halftruths.

And it seems that you dont know how to respect others and you dont know much about this world.Respect and follow the culture and the lifestyle of people of other pl
24、aces. Dont try to apply the way people in your place do to other places. If you do so, you will only be an unwelcome visitor in that place.

29、le do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.When someone says that he has a good memory,he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it.When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.If a friend sa
30、ys that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame(责备),and few of us know that it is just his own fault.Have you ever found that some people cant read or write but they have better memories?

Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing
36、when you are happy. Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.Do you know what a “territory” is? A territo
37、ry is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims (声称) as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your house is your territory where only your family and friends are welcome.If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you,
38、 you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.If so, you have actually frightened the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting (筑巢) season. So he is screaming all the time, whether
39、he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a birds song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.1Some scientists believe that most of the time birds singing is actually _.Aan expression of happiness Ba way of warningCan expression of anger Da way of greeting2What is a b

BBy reporting experiment results.CBy describing bird
42、s daily life. DBy telling a birds story.E17、One day Mrs. Wilson went shopping with Tracy and Ben.

43、me check the prices,please.”The Wilsons were not rich and Mrs. Wilson was always careful with her money. She looked carefully after the prices of things. She bought lots of things in the supermarket. When they got home,the children said,“We dont think you saved money by going to the supermarket.” “O
