阅读理解，阅读下列内容，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。

　　In April, 2013, I visited Yangzhou．

　　Ge Garden is very beautiful and peaceful．The ticket has a map on the back of it that I didn't noticed until I had already left．But to be honest, I don't think that map is very useful because it isn't very clear and detailed．In my opinion, it's better to improve it．Compared with Ge Garden, the map on the back of the ticket for He Garden is much clearer, more detailed and more useful．However, in the room that has the picture of the family members, there is only Chinese, no English, so my advice is to add English in interesting places．I got lost in the Slender West Lake．I spent about 30 minutes just trying to get out of one area．I think they need more signs posted along the trails．I like the Slender West Lake best, as she is so pretty! The ladies that were sweeping were very sweet．They always smiled at me and said hello, so it was nice．

　　Taking a taxi is the most efficient(有效率的)and quickest way to get around Yangzhou．I didn't have a problem getting to the places which I'd like to go to while using a taxi．The driver was very friendly．The fare isn't too high, either．But I didn't enjoy taking the bus．The bus ride to the Mastixia Bay(茱萸湾公园)took long although I only had to pay one yuan．It was also hard finding where Bus 32 was．I tried asking some people in English but they couldn't understand me, so I had to ask in simple Chinese that I only know buy that still didn't work．I spent about one hour walking around the city to look for Bus 32．The tricycle(三轮车)was nice, but it was a little too expensive for a small distance．Maybe I was ripped off by the guy who rode for me, but it was an enjoyable ride．I felt like I was part of the garden city more．

　　Over all I am satisfied with Yangzhou and will recommend it to others．

Do you know of anyone who uses the truth to cheat? When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out (略去) important information that should be inside, he can give you a false picture.
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 is 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 (政客) often use this trick. Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, her state lost one million jobs and got three million jobs. Then she tries to get another term. One of her opponents (竞争对手) says, “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 increased 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 say that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Company.
This kind of cheating happens too often. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.
小题1:We may infer that the author believes people should ________.

A．buy lottery tickets if possible

B．make use of half–truths

C．be careful about what they are told

D．not trust the Yucky Company

小题2:How many examples does the writer give to show how the truth is used to cheat?

小题3:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A．Using half truths is against the law.

B．Technically, half truths are in fact lies.

C．Yucky Pills is a very good medicine for toothache.

D．Governor Smith did a good job during her last term.

小题4:Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the passage?

A．He’s really a big loser!

B．Sometimes the truth can lie as well.

C．Advertisers will sometimes use half truths.

D．It’s against the law to make false statements.

There was once a young man called Paul in a village in the USA. Paul was very lazy because his father was a rich farmer and he didn’t have to work. Mr Smith, a neighbour of his, was a blacksmith (铁匠). He used to work in his shop all day. Paul spent hours and hours watching how the blacksmith worked every day. “Young man, why don’t you try your hand to make a shoe tack (铁钉), even it is only to pass the time?” said the blacksmith one day, “ Maybe it will be useful to you some day.” Finally, the lazy boy began to have a try. After practicing some times, he became skilled and could make very nice tacks.
Years later, Paul’s father died and he lost all the things because of a war (战争). He had to move to another country and live by himself. It happened that there were many shoemakers paying high prices to buy tacks for the shoes, because in that part of the country there was a great need of tacks for soldiers’ shoes. Paul went to talk with them. He told them that he would make the tacks if they could help him find a workshop in the village. The shoemakers agreed. Then Paul made a lot of money by making tacks. “How funny it is!” he said to himself, “Even by making shoe tacks, one can become rich.”
【小题1】Why didn’t Paul have to work?
