Is it anything we say which we know is untrue? Or is it something more than that? For example, suppose a friend wants to borr

17、ow some money from you, you say “ I wish I could help you but Im short of money myself. “ In fact, you are not short of money but your friend is in the habit of not paying his debts and you dont want to hurt his feeling by reminding him of this. Is this really a lie?Professor JeraldJellison of the U

18、niversity of Southern California has made a scientific study of lying. According to him, women are better liars than men, particularly when telling a “ white lie“. For instance, when a woman at a party tells another woman that she likes her dress, she really thinks it looks awful. However, this is o

19、nly one side of the story. Other researchers say that men are more likely to tell more serious lies, such as making a promise which they have no intention of fulfilling. This is the kind of lie politicians and businessmen are supposed to be particularly skilled at: the lie from which the liar hopes

20、to profit or gain in some way.Research has also been done into the way peoples behavior changes in a number of small, apparently unimportant ways when they lie. It has been found that if they are sitting down at the time, they tend to move about in their chairs more than usual. To the trained observ

21、er they are saying “ I wish I were somewhere else now“. They also tend to touch certain parts of the face more often, in particular the nose. One explanation of this may be that lying causes a slight increase in blood pressure. The tip of the nose is very sensitive to such changes and the increased

22、pressure makes it itch.Another gesture which gives liars away is what the writer Desmond Morris in his book Man-watching calls “the mouth cover“. He says there are several typical forms of this, such as covering part of the mouth with the fingers, touching the upper-lip or putting the hand at one si

23、de of the mouth. Such a gesture can be understood as an unconscious attempt on the part of the liar to stop himself or herself from lying.Of course, such gestures as rubbing the nose or covering the mouth or moving about in a chair cannot be taken as proof that the speaker is lying. They simply tend

24、 to occur more frequently in this situation. It is not one gesture alone that gives the liar away but a whole number of things, and in particular the context in which the lie is told.31 According to the passage, a “white lie“ seems to be a lie( ).（A）that other people believe（B） that other people don

25、t believe（C） told in order to avoid offending someone（D）told in order to take advantage of someone32 Research suggests that women( ).（A）are better at telling less serious lies than men（B） generally lie far more than men do（C） often make promises they intend to break（D）lie at parties more often that

26、men do33 Researchers find that when a person tells lies( ).（A）his blood pressure increases measurably（B） he looks very serious（C） he tends to make some small changes in his behavior（D）he uses his unconscious mind34 One reason people sometimes rub their noses when they tell lies is that( ).（A）they wi

27、sh they were somewhere else（B） the nose is sensitive to physical changes caused by lying（C） they want to cover their mouths（D）they are trying to stop themselves from telling lies35 Which of the following may best betray a liar?（A）The touching of the tip of ones nose.（B） The changes of ones behavior.

28、（C） The mouth cover gesture.（D）The circumstances in which his lie is told.35 Throughout the past century humanity did everything in its power to control nature. We dammed earths rivers, chopped down the forests and exhausted the soils. Burning up fuels, we pumped a great deal of greenhouse gases int

29、o the air, altering the chemistry of the atmosphere and warming the planet in just a few decades. And as our population began in the year 2000 above the 6 billion mark, still spreading across the continents, dozens of animal and plant species were dying out every day, including the first primate(灵长类

30、 )to disappear in more than 100 years.As the start of the 21st century there were unmistakable signs that nature was beginning to take its revenge. Melting ice in both poles of the earth suggested that the climate was changing rapidly. Weather was even more changeable than usual, giving some places

31、too little rain and others too much. Fires raced across the dried American West last summer, and recent storms spread damages from Britain to China. No specific event could be directly blamed on global warming. Floods and drought will be more frequent and severe. Other sad signs from an overburdened

32、 planet include falling grain and fish harvests and fierce competition for scarce water supplies.But there were also, in the year 2000, signs of great awareness. Connected by the Internet, hundreds of millions of people gathered for the 30th anniversary of Earth Day. Governments from Washington to L

33、ima took steps to protect the large wild areas from development. Progress was made toward using more renewable energy from the wind and the sun, and new cars that used both gasoline and electricity spotted(显示)fuel-economy statistics.The goal for the new century is“sustainable development“. Is that p

34、ossible? It depends on how well we understand that humanity is part of nature, not lord and master.36 What is the result of the human control over the nature?（A）Natural resources are being exhausted.（B） There is a global warming effect.（C） Species of animals and plants are reduced.（D）A11 of the abov

35、e.37 It can be inferred from the passage that scarce water supplies are directly caused by( ).（A）less ice in both poles（B） the more changeable weather（C） something not mentioned in the text（D）the larger population38 Which of the following is true according to the passage?（A）America suffered a lot fr

36、om fires last summer.（B） The American government tried to stop development.（C） Humanity built many dams in the past century.（D）Dozens of animals and plants will no longer exist in more than 100 years.39 The phrase “ sustainable development“ in the last paragraph probably means that economic developm

38、f Earth Day（D）aware of the importance of environment protection 40 Donnas fourth grade classroom looked typically traditional. Yet something seemed different that day when I entered it for the first time.My job was to make classroom visits and encourage implementing a training program focusing on la

39、nguage arts, ideas that would empower students to feel good about themselves and take charge of their lives. Donna was one of the volunteer teachers in this project.I sat in the back and watched. All the students were working on the task, filling their notebook paper with thoughts and ideas. A stude

40、nt next to me was filling her page with “I cant kick the soccer ball.“ “I cant do long division with more than three numerals.“ Her page was half full and she showed no signs of letting up. I walked down the row glancing at students papers. Everyone was writing down things they couldnt do.By this ti

41、me the activity engaged my curiosity. I decided to check with the teacher to see what was going on but I noticed she too was busy writing “ I cant get Johns mother to come for a teacher conference.“ “I cant get my daughter to put gas in the car.“ “I cant.“Curious and puzzled about what they were doi

42、ng, I returned to my seat and continued my observations.Students wrote for another ten minutes. They were then instructed to fold the papers in half and bring them to the front. They placed their “I Cant“statements into all empty shoe boxes. Then Donna added hers. She put the lid on the box, tucked

43、it under her arm and headed out the door and down the hall.Students followed her. I followed the students. Half way down the hall way, Donna entered the custodians room, came out with a shovel, and marched the students out to the farthest corner of the playground. There they began to dig. They were

44、going to bury their“ I Cants“ !The digging took over then minutes with dirt. Students stood around the freshly dug grave. At this point Donna announced, “ Boys and girls, please join hands and bow your heads.“ They quickly formed a circle around the grave.They lowered their heads and waited. Donna d

45、elivered the eulogy. “Friends, we gathered here today to honor the memory of I Cant. While he was with us on earth, he touched the lives of everyone, some more than others. We have provided I Cant with a final resting place and a headstone that contains his epitaph. He is survived by his brothers an

46、d sisters, I Can, I Will, and Im Going to Right Away. They are not as well known as their famous relative and are certainly not as strong and powerful. Perhaps some day, with your help, they will make an even bigger mark on the world. May I Cant rest in peace and may everyone present pick up their l

47、ives and move forward in his absence. Amen.“41 According to the passage, which of the following statements is INCORRECT?（A）Donna was a volunteer teacher of the training program.（B） The author knew what was going to happen when he/she entered the classroom.（C） Donnas fourth grade classroom appeared t

48、o be traditional, resembling many others the author had seen in the past.（D）Everyone, regardless of gender, age, and occupation, may encounter many “I cants“ in life.42 It can be inferred from the passage that what Donna and the students were doing in the classroom( )the authors perceptions of touch
