第一节阅读表达

阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上(请注意问题后的词数要求)。

［1］Can you imagine going through a whole day without telling a lie? “Yes，of course，”most people would answer，but then they've probably forgotten all these lies that are told so easily一“This is delicious．”“You look lovely in that dress．”“I'd love to come with you，”etc．Lies are used a lot in everyday life．

［2］Generally speaking，_______________.The first type of liar wants to please people．The second type wants to protect himself or herself，and the third type lies to get what he or she wants．Lying can also be separated into three different catalogues.

Both sides benefit

［3］If someone is fishing for compliments(赞美)and you tell them what they want to hear，you probably think this a“kind”lie．However，you get something as a result ot this lie, too—affection，friendship，or peace and quiet．

Refusing to accept responsibility

［4］ When you lie for self-protection，the reason is very clear．To explain your late-ness，you tell your boss the train was late，not that you overslept．You cannot be blamed for being late，because you are not responsible for any problems the train has and the con-sequences of those problems．  

The worst type of lie

［5］The third sort of lie is more harmful．It is，for example，the kind of lie that people tell in order to climb up the ladder at work，without caring about the people who are treated badly and unfairly．

［6］What about being lied to? Can you tell when someone is telling you a lie? Obviously there are some verbal(明显可视的) signs. Liars often take longer to answer questions．They also speak faster but are sometimes very unclear about details.  Certain types of body language can also indicate that someone is lying.  Experts say that speaking through one's fingers or putting one’s hands over one's face may indicate that a person is lying．P1aying with one's hair or clothes and being unable to stay still for any length of time are others．

As any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal than food. Sociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more.

Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping(录像）the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes. They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children. But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents’ efforts to control the loud noise they make. That can have an important effect on the children. “In general the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the children’s IQ scores,” Lewis says. “And the more children there are, the less question-asking there is.”

The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings（兄弟姐妹）. Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention. “Middle children are invisible,” says Lewis. “When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are it’s the middle child.” There is, however, one thing that stops all conversation and prevents anyone from having attention：“When the TV is on,” Lewis says, “dinner is a non-event.”

Earthquakes strike suddenly at any time of the day or night, there’s no way to tell when. If an earthquake happens, it may cause many deaths and injuries and great damage. Decide how and where your family will get together if separate. Choose an out-of-state friend or relative that the family members can call after the quake to report where they are and how they are. Know the safe places in each room: under the strong tables, desks, or against inside walls and keep enough food, water and other things, including a flashlight, a radio, medicines and clothing.

　　 During the earthquake, you should keep a clear head and never be too nervous to know what to do. Protect your head and neck with your arms. If possible, take a book, a pillow or any other things to protect yourself from falling glass and ruins. If you are indoors, you must immediately lie under any strong furniture. If outdoors, move to an open area away from trees, buildings, walls and power poles. In a narrow valley, move to the center of it and look out for falling stones. If you are in the car, move to the side of the road and stop the car. Do not stop near buildings, power lines and on or under the bridges. Stay in your car until the shaking stops.

Do not move badly injured person unless they are in great danger after the earthquake. Do not use the telephone immediately unless there is a serious injury or fire. Turn on your radio for instructions and news reports. Be prepared for aftershocks. If you should leave your home, post a message inside your home telling family members where you can be found.
