Beware of those who use the truth to deceive(欺骗). When someone tells you something that is , but leaves out important information that should be , he can create a false impression.
For example, someone might say, “I just a hundred dollars on the lottery. It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and it in for one hundred dollars!”
This guy is a winner, ? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought two hundred , and only one was a winner. He’s really a big !
He didn’t say anything that was , but he deliberately left out some important . That’s called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically , but they are just as not .
Untrustworthy candidates in campaigns often use this tactic(手段). Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, the state lost one million jobs and three million jobs. Then she another term. One of her opponents runs an ad , “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!”That’s true. , an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of million jobs. ”
Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It’s the law to make false claims so they try to mislead you with the . An ad might boast, “Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples. ”It to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation.
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.

I hated going to school and I hated 38 at me. I hated seeing others smiling broadly and standing 39 and tall. And most of all, I hated looking in the 40 and seeing an ugly and hunchback(驼背).
My friends found me 41 because I didn’t let other get close to me. I thought I was going to go on like this for the rest of my life 42 Angela appeared.
That afternoon, I was sitting by myself in a corner of the school—a spot where no one would

“Hi. Can I sit down?”
I raised my head and there she was, with an irresistible smile on her round face.
“What are you looking at?” you asked.
“Ants.”
“What are they doing?”
“No 44 .”
“I bet they’re playing games and make friends. Don’t you think so?”
That was how our 45 started and it didn’t stop. We talked about everything under the sun—the ants, the clouds, my little niche(处境)—until it was sunset.
Then suddenly, you saw my 46 . She just stared.
My heart 47 . What I feared most had happened and I knew for sure she would 48 me now.
She stood up, pointed at my back and said, “I know 49 your back is hunched.”
I closed my eyes like a criminal waiting to be 50 . I begged in my heart for her to 51 , but you just kept on going. “I know what you’ve got in there. Do you?”
“No,” I answered 52 .
She bent and whispered in my ears.
“Your back is bunched because you’ve got a pair of wings from the angels.”
I was 53 . I looked into your eyes and her 54 touched my heart. From that day on, I started to learn to 55 myself because I have the wings of an angel and a kind – hearted friend.

In this modern world, we rush around all day with no time for stillness. And when we are 48 to be still, we're in line for something, or waiting at a doctor's appointment, or on a bus or train. This comes at a 49 : we lose that time for consideration, for observing and listening. We lose peace. And 50 yet: sometimes no action is better than too much action at all. You can run around crazily, but get nothing done. Take a moment to think about how you spend your days? Are you always 51 through your schedule?
Is this how you want to spend your life? If not, take a moment to be still. Don't think about what you have to do, or what you've done already. 52 be in the moment. Then after a minute or two of doing that, consider your 53 , and how you'd like it to be. See your life with less movement and less rushing. See it with more stillness and more peace. It's pretty simple: all you have to do is sit still for a little bit each day. Once you've got 54 to that, try doing less each day. Find happiness now, in this moment, instead of waiting for it.
Value the stillness. It's a treasure and it's 55 to us, always.
