Do you know of anyone who uses the truth to deceive (欺骗)? 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, some 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. He’s really a big loser!

He didn’t say anything that was false, but he left out important information on purpose. That’s called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest.

Some politicians often use this trick. 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(对手) says, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” That’s true. However, and 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 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. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.

1.How much did the lottery winner lose?

A. Two hundred dollars. B. One hundred dollars.

C. Three hundred dollars. D. Four hundred dollars.

2.We may infer that the author believes people should _______.

A. buy lottery tickets

B. make use of half-truths

C. not take anything at face value

D. not trust the Yucky Company

3.What do the underline words “net gain” in Paragraph 5 mean?

A. final increase B. big advantage

C. large share D. total saving

4.What can we know from the example of the Yucky Pill advertisement?

A. False statements are easy to see through.

B. Advertisements are based on facts.

C. Doctors like to act in advertisements.

D. Half-truths are often used to mislead people.

Thoughts claim our attention continuously, and waste our time and energy on unimportant and useless matters. They actually rule our life. We have become so used to this slavery, that we take it for granted, and have become unconscious of this habit, except on certain occasions.

While breathing, we do not need to pay attention to each inhalation and exhalation. We become conscious of the process of breathing only when we have some difficulty with breathing, such as when our nose is blocked, due to a cold, or when we are in an unventilated(不通风的) room.

It is the same with thinking. We become conscious of the constant onslaught of our thoughts, and of our inability to calm them down, only when we need to concentrate, solve a problem or study. We are also aware of them when we have worries or fears.

Look at the following familiar situation. You need to study something for an exam. You sit comfortably on the sofa with the book in your hands and start reading. After a while you feel hungry and go to the kitchen to eat something.

You return to read, and then hear your people talking outside. You listen to them for several moments and then bring your attention back to the book.

After a while you feel restless and switch on the radio to listen to some music. You continue to read for a little while, and then remember something that happened yesterday, and you start thinking about it.

When you look at your watch, you are amazed to find out that one complete hour has passed and you have hardly read anything. And at this time, you feel you’re thinking.

This is what happens when one lacks concentration. Imagine what you could have accomplished if you could control your attention and focus your mind!

1.When can you feel you are thinking?

A. While breathing.

B. While not reading.

C. When you need to concentrate.

D. When you waste your time.

2.Why does the author put forward the exam situation?

A. To explain the course of thinking awareness.

B. To show how to get ready for an exam.

C. To present an example of concentration.

D. To emphasize the importance of reading.

3.Where can you most probably find the above passage?

A. In a guidebook of natural science.

B. In the front page of a newspaper.

C. In an advertisement part of a magazine.

D. In the section of psychology of a magazine.

4.This passage is mainly about _______.

A. the relationship between thoughts and breathing

B. how people’s thought and mind work

C. what happens when one wants to think

D. the ways to increase your thought
