How Many Lies Do the Children Tell You?

Mothers who feel their children don't appreciate them can add another grievance to the list: half the time, their children are lying to them.A study designed to expose the truth about lying shows that undergraduates lie to their mothers in 46% of their conversations.Still, mums should feel better than total strangers, who are told lies an astonishing 77% of the time.

Bella Depaulo and a team of psychologists from the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, asked 77 undergraduates to keep a record of all their conversations for a week, and write down whether they lied at any time.DePaulo named lying broadly, as "when you intentionally try to mislead someone", so she would catch the smallest of lies.

The students told an average of two lies a day.They said they had been studying when they had been out drinking.One told his parents that a textbook cost $50 rather than $20 so that they would send him extra money.Female students constantly told their plain-looking roommates that they were pretty."They are everyday lies," says DePaulo.

DePaulo and her colleagues conclude that people tend to tell fewer lies to those they feel closest to. College students lied to their best friends 28% of the time but lied to acquaintances 48% of the time.In close relationships, people were more likely to tell "kind-hearted" lies, designed to protect feelings, rather than self-serving lies.

Students lied to romantic partners about a third of the time.DePaulo thinks that unmarried lovers can expect less honesty than best friends because of the insecurity that comes with romance.

Mothers can take heart from one other finding.They may have been lied to, but at least their children talked to them.The students were recorded telling few lies to their fathers because they had little interaction with them.

1.What is the meaning of the underlined word "grievance" in Paragraph 1?

A. complaintB. opinionC. beliefD. difficulty

2.According to the passage, college students felt closest to ________.

A. motherB. acquaintances

C. best friendsD. romantic partners

3.Female students lied to their roommates to ________.

A. make them happyB. offer them the services

C. gain more securityD. get money from them

4.What is the purpose of this article?

A. To explain a theory.B. To argue an idea.

C. To tell a story.D. To present a fact.

A new camera made by a company named Netatmo has facial recognition software(识别系统)that can tell parents at work that their children have returned from school, or that a package has been taken to their home. It can also tell them if a stranger has entered their home.

Janina Mattausch is a product marketing manager for Netatmo.

“The common security(安全)cameras at present are not that smart. So, they can tell you if something is moving but they don’t necessarily know if it’s a human being or, ah, if it’s your kids—they don’t’ know the difference, so they will warn you all the time.”

When family members enter a home, the new camera "recognizes" (识别 ) them and sends information to the owner's smartphone. The owner can choose to see the video then or later. But if an unknown person enters a home, the camera will send the owner a warning that will cause an alarm to sound on the owner's smartphone.

That is what happened recently to a smart home camera owner named Darrmen. He lives in Paris.

"On a Friday I was at work, attending a big monthly meeting when my phone warned. At first I told myself 'Oh, it must be a mistake, maybe I have to set the system again. “But the notice on my phone was telling me that there was a movement in my flat and also a face that the software did not recognize.”

He watched the video and was very surprised by what he saw.

"I saw a person I did not know with his shoes on. I was watching it live on video. So I felt totally unbelievable, frozen. I asked a workmate to take me back home as fast as possible and I called the police on the way. "

With the help of the video, the police found the intruder (闯入者) later that day.

1. The new camera made by Netatmo can ______ .

A. warn the strangers

B. recognize the comers

C. stop the visitors

D. welcome the children

2.The fourth paragraph mainly tells us ______ .

A. where the new camera is placed

B. what the new camera looks like

C. when the new camera is used

D. how the new camera works

3.We can learn from the passage that Damien ______ .

A. found the warning was a mistake

B. was too busy to notice the warning

C. felt shocked to see a stranger in his flat

D. caught the intruder by himself that day

4. The writer proves(证明) the new camera works well by ______ .
