5.以下为 A(易)、B(难)两种题型,任选一种,做 A 种题型的不做 B 种,做 B 种题型的不做 A 种What is the best way to catch someone who is telling a lie?
For a long time,the traditional method of catching liars was to watch their body language.Many people-from parents to police officers depend on this method.But does a person's body tell us the truth?
According to a new study,it is not the case.Researchers in the UK recently found that talking seems to be the best way to smoke out a liar.Their study took place at an airport.
The researchers asked volunteers to pretend they were real passengers and then lie to airport security officers.Some of the officers used conversation methods to question them,while other officers depend on their body language.The officers using the talking method were 20times more likely to catch the liars.
Like many methods,this talking technique has a name.It is called Controlled Cognitive Engagement or CCE for short.Here are four ways of catching a liar.
①Use open-ended questions.
These are the opposite of"Yes"and‘"No"questions.Open-ended questions force the person to continue the story of their lies until they are caught in their own web of lies.
②Surprise them.
Ask questions they may not think you are going to ask.Ask questions that are surprising or off-topic.This will make it harder for them to keep lying.
③Look for small details that do not make sense.
Ask them details in their stories and look for facts that seem to disagree with each other.But do not let them know you know.Just let them dig themselves deeper into a hole.
④Watch for changes in confidence and speaking styles.
Liars will often change their speaking styles when they are questioned.For example,when they feel in control they may be very talkative.But if they feel they are losing control,they may not talk much at all.

分析 本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了抓住说谎的人最好的方法
解答 46.A;主旨大意题.文章第一段What is the best way to catch someone who is telling a lie以"抓住说谎的人最好的方式是什么"这一问句开头,下文也全部在介绍如何抓住说谎的人,所以应该选择 A 选项.故选A.
47.D;细节题理解题.题目问的是下面哪种方式更可能帮助你你抓住说谎的人.A 选项意思为问他问题如果他说的是真话,文章说的是怎样抓住说谎的人,与文章不符.B 选项定位到文章②Surprise them 部分,文章并未提到通过提高声音来使他们惊讶.C 选项文章第四段最后一句说的是使用说话方法的人比使用关注肢体语言的人有 20 倍的可能抓住说谎的人,故排除.D 选项在文章最后一段Liars will often change their speaking styles when they are questioned.For example,when they feel in control they may be very talkative提及,要注意到某人信心的变化,所以为正确选项.故选D.
48.B 细节理解题.根据题目定位到文章①Use open-ended questions 部分.可知问一些开放式的问题来抓住说谎者是因为他们很难撒谎;故选B.
49.C 词义猜测题.一些安检员用对话方式来提问"他们","他们"指代的就是上句提到的研究志愿者;故选C.
50.D 判断对错题,也属多细节题.D 根据文章第二段For a long time,the traditional method of catching liars was to watch their body language.Many people-from parents to police officers depend on this method,观察人们的肢体语言才是父母和警察广泛使用的方法,CCE 并未被父母和警察广泛使用,故选D
B 题型
46.At an airport.细节理解题,根据题目定位到文章第三段Their study took place at an airport可知实验在机场进行的;故填At an airport.
47.It is called Controlled Cognitive Engagement or CCE for short.细节理解题.根据题目定位到文章第五段. Here are four ways of catching a liar.可知说谎者的谈话方法叫控制认知参与或CCE短;故填It is called Controlled Cognitive Engagement or CCE for short
48.Because This will make it harder for them to keep lying.细节理解题.根据题目定位到文章②Surprise them 部分可知在找骗子的时候提出令人吃惊的问题为了使他们更难撒谎;故填Because This will make it harder for them to keep lying.
49.The officers using the talking method were 20 times more likely to catch the liars.推理判断题.根据题目定位到文章第四段最后一句Because This will make it harder for them to keep lying.可知使用谈话法的警官比说谎者多20倍;故填The officers using the talking method were 20 times more likely to catch the liars.
50.They may be very talkative.根据题目定位到文章最后一段For example,when they feel in control they may be very talkative可知说谎者控制自己时是很健谈的;故填They may be very talkative
点评 考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.
