(B)One day a few years ago a very funny thing happened to a neighbour of mine. He is a teacher at one of Londons big medical schools, He had finished his teaching for the summer term and was at the airport on his way to Russia to give a lecture. He had put a few clothes and his lecture notes in his shoulder bag, but he had put Rupert, the skeleton (人体骨骼) to be used in his lecture, in a large brown suitcase (箱子). At the airport desk, he suddenly thought that he had forgotten to buy a newspaper. He left his suitcase near the desk and went over to the shop.

When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out important information that should be included, he can give you a false picture.For example, someone might say, I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery (彩票). It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!This guy's 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. Thats called a half-truth. Half truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest.Some politicians 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 seeks another term. One of her opponents (对手) 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 (广告商) will sometimes use half-truths. Its against the law to make false statements so they try to mislead you with the truth. An advertisement might say, “Nine out of ten doctors advised their patients to take Yucky Pills to cure toothache.” It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Company.This kind of deception happens too often. Its a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.64. How much did the lottery winner lose?A. One hundred dollars. B. Two hundred dollars.C. Three hundred dollars. D. Four hundred dollars.65. We may infer that the author believes people should _.A. buy lottery tickets B. make use of half-truthsC. not take anything at false value D. not trust the Yucky Company66.

False statements are easy to see through. B. Half-truths are often used to mislead people.C. Doctors like to act in advertisements. D. Advertisements are based on facts.DI think it was my mother who taught me the meaning of honesty. Not because she actually was honest, but because she lied all the time. She felt that the easiest way out of any given situation was generally the best way out. And, for her, that generally meant
