    Do you know of anyone who uses the truth to deceive (欺骗)? When someone tells you something that
    is true, but leaves out important information that should be included, he can give you a false picture.
    For example, some 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 on e hundred dollars!"
    This guy's a winner, right? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought $200 worth of tickets,
    and only on e 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 often use this trick. Let's say that during Governor Smith's last term, her state lost one
    million jobs and gained three million jobs. Then she seeks another term. One of her opponents (对手) says,
    "During Governor Smith's term, the state lost one million jobs!" that's true. However, and honest statement
    would have been, "During Governor Smith's term, the state had anet gainof two million jobs."
    Advertisers (广告商) 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 mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them
    work for the Yucky Company.
    This kind of deception happens too of often. It's a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth
    can lie as well.
    1. How much did the lottery winner lose?
    A. One hundred dollars.
    B. Two hundred dollars.
    C. Three hundred dollars.
    D. Four hundred dollars.
    2. We may infer that the author believes people should _____.
    A. buy lottery tickets
    B. make use of half-truths
    C. not take anything at face value
    D. not trust the Yucky Company
    3. What do the underline words "net gain" in Paragraph 5 mean?
    A. final increase
    B. big advantage
    C. large share
    D. total saving
    4. What can we know from the example of the Yucky Pill advertisement?
    A. False statements are easy to see through.
    B. Half-truths are often used to mislead people.
    C. Doctors like to act in advertisements.

  • 日常生活类阅读

日常生活类阅读的概念:

日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作,生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时,最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容,时间和地点。


日常生活类阅读题答题技巧:

【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小,追根溯源,探索各项风俗的历史渊源,内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主,如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松,试题做起来比较顺手,但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神,就会丢分。   
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率,建议同学们做好以下几点:   
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现,越是容易的试题,同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢?因为在这种情况下,同学们极易产生麻痹思想,认为题目好做,就不引起高度重视,于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点,设计陷阱题。所以,无论试题难易与否,我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易,不欣喜;试题难,不悲观。   
2、根据前面讲到的方法,认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。   
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义,确定多义词或短语在文中的意思,确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象,或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子,切不可望文生义。   
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提,以具体事实为依据进行推理,做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接,只要弄清事实,即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
