Beware of those who use the truth to cheat. When someone tells you something that is
36 , but leaves out important information that should be
37 , he can create a false impression.
For example, someone might say, “I just
38 a hundred dollars on the lottery. It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and 39 it for one hundred dollars!”
This guy’s a winner,
40 ? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought two hundred
41 , and only one was a winner. He’s really a big
42 !
He didn’t say anything that was
43 , but he deliberately left out some important
44 . That’s called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically
45 , but they are just as not
46 .
Untrustworthy candidates in
47 campaigns often use this strategy. Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, her state lost one million jobs and
48 three million jobs. Then she
49 another term. One of her opponents runs an advertisement
50 , “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” That’s true.
51 , an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of
52 million jobs.”
Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It’s
53 the law to make false claims so they try to mislead you with the
54 . An advertisement might boast (吹嘘), “Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples.” It
55 to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation.
This kind of cheat happens too often. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.
