16．Be careful of those who use the truth to deceive．When someone tells you something that is true，but leaves out important information that should be included，he can create a false impression．
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 two hundred tickets，and only one was a winner．He's really a big loser!
He didn't say anything that was false，but he purposely omitted important information．That's called a half-truth．Half-truths are not technically lies，but they are just as dishonest．
Dishonest candidates in political campaigns often use this tactic （策略）．Let's say that during Governor Smith's last term，her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs．Then she seeks another term．One of her opponents runs an ad saying，"During Governor Smith's term，the state lost one million jobs!"That's true．However an honest statement would have been，"During Governor Smith's term，the state had a net gain of two million jobs．"
Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths．It's against the law to make false claims so they try to mislead you with the truth．An ad might show off，"Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples．"It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation．
This kind of dishonesty happens too often．It's a sad fact of life：Lies are lies，and sometimes the truth can lie as well．
51．Which statement is true according to the article？D
A．Whenever telling the truth，people are really lying．
B．One can get rich in a flash by getting lottery tickets．
C．All governors help their states．
D．The truth can be used in dishonest ways．
52．The underlined word"deceive"in the first paragraph probably meansC．
A．pretend
B．sell  
C．fool  
D．hide
53．A suitable title for this selection would beC．
A．Telling the Truth
B．Everyone Lies
C．Lying With the Truth
D．Trust Nobody．

7．When I was nine years old，I loved to go fishing with my dad．But the only thing that wasn't very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn't catch anything．I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why．He always answered，"Son，if you want to catch a fish，you have to think like a fish．"I remember being even more upset then，because"I'm not a fish!"I didn't know how to think like a fish．Besides，I reasoned，how could what I think influence what a fish does？
As I got a little older，I began to understand what my dad really meant．So，I read some books on fish．And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings．I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature．That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer．Besides，water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade…The more I understood fish，the more I became effective at finding and catching them．
When I grew up and entered the business world，I remember hearing my first boss say，"We all need to think like sales people．"But it didn't completely make sense．My dad never once said，"If you want to catch a fish，you need to think like a fisherman．"What he said was，"You need to think like a fish．"Years later，with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me，I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers．It is not an easy job．I will show you how in the following chapters．

5．A few years ago a literary agent turned me down after he read a couple chapters of my manuscript（稿件）．After I received the rejection，I responded to his email with a question．"So is it the lack of platform，"I asked him，"or the quality of the writing…or both？"
He answered quickly．"To tell you the truth，you don't have a strong enough platform yet，but the bigger issue right now is your voice．Your writing is okay，but your voice needs work．"
Staring at that reply on my computer screen，I burst into tears．That was the day I quit writing and gave up my dream to publish my book．"It's too hard，too disappointing，"I complained to my husband later that evening．My husband listened carefully，and then he asked me a single question："Can you imagine your life without writing？"
I didn't even have to think about it．"No，"I answered Brad．"No，I can't image my life without writing．"
"Well then keep at it，"Brad encouraged．"Keep writing．Something will come of it．"
Not long after，I hired a professional editor to work with me on the manuscript．The editor observed two voices competing on the pages：the personal voice and the instructional voice．The two voices didn't play well together，the editor concluded； switching from one voice to the other was unsettling to the reader．
I wish I could tell you that reworking the manuscript was an inspiring，fulfilling process．But it wasn't．It was hard，slow work．Another entire year passed before the manuscript was ultimately accepted by a different agent．And it was another two years before that agent was able to sell the book to a publisher．
I'm grateful my husband asked me that pointed question the day the agent rejected my manuscript．
And I'm even strangely grateful the agent offered such a searing criticism of my work．Without it，I might have been satisfied with writing that was merely"okay"．

A．Her husband
B．A professional editor

C．He pointed out her potential in writing．

6．Last Thursday，Michael and Linda stood behind large food trucks distributing meals to 4，000homeless people for their wedding reception on the border town of Kilis．The couple had decided that instead of hosting their friends and family for a traditional feast reception，they would feed the victims from an earthquake-stricken area．
The idea came from the bridegroom's father，Ted，who volunteers for a Turkish relief organization．For the past few years，the organization has distributed daily meals to thousands of people who've suffered from natural disasters．He approached a representative of the organization and suggested that the family cover part of the costs of feeding them for the day．

On Tuesday evening，the newly married couple were still pleased with their decision to quit a personal celebration for one with a greater good．"It's like sharing a dinner with your friends and family who have this kind of thing on a daily basis-or sharing something with people who don't even have the most basic things，"Michael said．"Hopefully，this will also give the start for other wedding dinners to be held here with our brothers and sisters in need．"
