12.Whether we're 2 years old or 62,our reasons for lying are mostly the same:to get out of trouble,for personal gain and to make ourselves look better in the eyes of others.But a growing body of research is raising questions about how a child's lie is different from an adult's lie,and how the way we deceive changes as we grow."Parents and teachers who catch their children lying should not be alarmed.Their children are not going to turn out to be abnormal liars,"says Dr.Lee,a professor at the University of Toronto and director of the Institute of Child Study.He has spent the last 15years studying how lying changes as kids get older,why some people lie more than others as well as which factors can reduce lying.The fact that children tell lies is a sign that they have reached a new developmental stage.Dr.Lee conducted a series of studies in which they bring children into a lab with hidden cameras.Children and young adults aged 2to 17are likely to lie while being told not to look at a toy,which is put behind the child's back.Whether or not the child takes a secret look is caught on tape.
For young kids,the desire to cheat is big and 90% take a secret look in these experiments.When the test-giver returns to the room,the child is asked if he or she looked secretly.At age 2,about a quarter of children will lie and say they didn't.By 3,half of kids will lie,and by 4,that figure is 90%,studies show.
Researchers have found that it's kids with better understanding abilities who lie more.That's because to lie you also have to keep the truth in mind,which includes many brain processes,such as combining several sources of information and faking that information.The ability to lie-and lie successfully-is thought to be related to development of brain regions that allow so called"executive functioning",or higher order thinking and reasoning abilities.Kids who perform better on tests that involve executive functioning also lie more.

解答 26-30 BACCD
26.B 细节理解题.根据第一段"our reasons forlying are mostly the same:to get out of trouble,for personal gain and to makeourselves look better in the eyes of others."可知,我们撒谎的原因大都一样:为了摆脱麻烦、得到好处或者是为了让我们在别人眼里变得更好.故选B.
27.A 词义猜测题.根据整句话的含义:"不过越来越多的研究正在提出这样的疑问:孩子的谎言和大人们的谎言有何不同;随着年龄的增长,我们的撒谎行为会发生何种变化"可知,"deceive"应是"说谎"的意思,故选A.
28.C 推理判断题.根据第二段中的"The fact that childrentell lies is a sign that they have reached a new developmental stage."可知,孩子说谎标志着他们到达了一个新的发展阶段."故选C.
29.C 推理判断题.根据第三段段中的"At age 2,about a quarter of children will lie and say they didn't.By 3,half of kids will lie,and by 4,that figure is 90%,studies show"可知,在两岁的孩子里,大约有四分之一的人会撒谎说他们没有看过.三岁的孩子有一半会说谎,而到了四岁,这个数字是90%.即年龄越大,说谎的人越多,故选C.
30. D 细节理解题.文章主要讲述了孩子说谎的原因、哪那些孩子说谎多及关于孩子说谎的实验,而D项文章没有提到,故选D.
点评 解答细节理解题时,一个常用的方法就是运用定位法,即根据题干和选项中的关键词从原文中找到相关的句子,与选项进行比较从而确定答案;推理判断题既要求学生透过文章表面文字信息推测文章隐含意思,又要求学生对作者的态度、意图及文章细节的发展作正确的推理判断,力求从作者的角度去考虑,不要固守自己的看法或观点.
