24、   As is often the case, parents are very shocked to discover their children have lied to them for the first time. But new research has suggested many parents may not even notice many of the lies their children tell them.

Psychologists have discovered that most parents are over-confident in their children’s honesty and this may impair their ability to discover a lie.

The findings may help to explain why some parents seem to be willing to let their children get away with almost anything even in the face of the evidence (迹象). They say parents suffer from a “truth bias (偏见)” with their own teenagers, but when faced with lies from other people’s children, they have less difficulty telling if a statement is true or not.

Dr. Angela Evans, a psychologist at Brock University in Canada, said, “The close relationship that parents share with their own children may lead to parents failing to discover their children’s lies. Parents’ truth bias may result in parents being less doubtable of their children, allowing them to successfully cheat (欺骗) them.”

Most children are thought to start lying as early as two years old but start telling more believable lies at around the age of four years old. Learning how to lie is considered as a key part of cognitive (认知的) and social development in children. But many parents are shocked when their children start lying to them. In their study, Dr Evans and her colleagues filmed 108 children aged between 8 and 16 as they performed a test after being asked not to look at the answers. They were then asked afterwards if they had looked, with 50 truthfully denying (否认) looking, 49 lying about looking and 9 admitting (承认) to looking.

Videos of those denying looking were then shown to 152 parents of children aged 8 to 16, 80 of whom had children who had taken part in the test. The researchers found that the parents were less able to discover lies told by their own children than by other people’s children.

【1】What does the underlined word “impair” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A.Show. B.Harm. C.Realize. D.Develop.

【2】When lying to their parents, children can’t be easily found because ________.

A.their parents aren’t prepared for the lies

B.their parents can’t notice any of their lies

C.they are very good at telling lies

D.they know how to lie to their parents

【3】What does Dr. Evans want to find about children’s lying?

A.What makes parents lose trust in their children.

B.What causes children to tell lies to their parents.

C.What makes parents fail to see their children’s lies.

D.What affects children’s relations with their parents.

【4】What can be inferred from Dr. Evans’s study in the last two paragraphs?

A.Parents prefer to protect their own children.

B.Lying is a part of children’s development.

C.Children aged 8 to 16 are very likely to tell lies.

D.Parents can easily discover lies told by children of others.

26、   “How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly greeting that people in the United States use. However, “How are you?” is also an unusual question. It’s a question that often doesn’t need an answer. The person who asks, “How are you?” expects to hear the answer “Fine,” even if the person isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn’t really a question and “Fine” isn’t really an answer. They are common ways of saying “hello” or “hi”.

Sometimes, people don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?” the other person may be thinking, “No, I don’t. I think you’re wrong.” It isn’t polite to disagree very strongly, so he might say, “I am not so sure.” This is a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone.

People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking to other people. For example, many conversations over the phone end when one person says, “I’ve got to go now,” or the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse such as “Someone is at the door,” or, “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuse may be real, or not. The person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say so. An excuse is polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person’s feelings.

Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an opinion, or ending a conversation, people often don’t say exactly what they are thinking. This is one way of being nice to people, and it’s a part of the game of language.

【1】If you have a different idea from that of someone else, it is polite to say “________.”

A.You’re wrong B.I’m not so sure

C.Of course, I disagree D.No, I don’t agree with you

【2】Which of the following is a polite way to finish a conversation?

A.I have no time to talk to you now. B.I want to stop talking now.

C.I have to go now. D.I don’t want to talk any more.

【3】According to the passage, when a person says “Something is burning on the stove,” it means that ________.

A.he is going to prepare an exam B.he is interested in the conversation

C.he is hurting someone’s feelings D.he’s giving an excuse to end the conversation

【4】One of the rules of the game of language is ________.

A.to be polite B.not to disagree with others

C.to say what you mean D.to make sentence funny

【5】What’s the passage mainly about?

A.How to make friends with other people. B.Some polite questions used to greet other people.

C.Important ways of being polite to other people. D.How to end a conversation.

A.To go with their parents. B.To bring their ID cards. C.To wear their uniforms.

28、   As a student, books play an important role in our life. As Gorky once said, “Books are the ladder of human progress.” Then which book is your favorite?

As a book lover, my favorite book is Robinson Crusoe. This book is 【1】（写）by Daniel Defoe, and it has already 【2】（影响）lots of students like me. Every time I read it, I see a tall and strong image of Robinson. The 【3】（整个的）book tells the stories of his adventures and courage. He is such a brave man that I【4】(钦佩) him so much. When Robinson was young, he dreamt of sailing on the sea day and night. Unfortunately, after his grown up, he 【5】（实际上）lived on a desert island for twenty-eight years. He【6】（经受）a lot. But the idea of 【7】 up（放弃）never came to his mind. During these years, he had to endure hunger, fight against 【8】（自然的）disasters, and overcome many 【9】（困难）. But the great man went out of the desert island at last because of his fighting 【10】（精神）, and hard-working attitude. That story encouraged me deeply. Our life cannot be lucky all the time. But no pains no gains. And only hard work can lead us to a better life.
