But you are still the best police dog in the world!” “ARF! ARF!” barked Joe.“You are welcome,” said Fred. “Now lets get your birthday dinner. Show me where you want to eat.”Joe led Fred down the street. Good smells came from all the eating places. But Joe walked on. At last he stopped at a small place. He smelled around the door.

Most of us get angry at big lies, but how about truth-telling in our private life? Should we always tell the truth to husbands, wives, mothers, fathers and children?Public opinion polls find that only about one in ten Americans say they never tell a lie. Some studies showed that each student actually told about two lies a day. Half of all adults interviewed in a radio poll last year admitted they had told a lie they regretted, and many said they had been deeply hurt by a lie someone told them.Researchers asked some people to describe the lies they told over a period of weeks. They nearly all stressed that what they told were white lies, and denied having told serious lies.We tell more different lies to men than to women. Men and women tell more lies about themselves when talking to men, but more lies about others when talking to women. Men are particularly likely to lie about themselves. Women tell more lie than men, but only because women tell white lies in order to make others feel comfortable.Surveys show that nearly everyone believes most people are truthful. Thats why people are so bad at detecting lies. Psychologists have even tested the lie-detecting ability of police officers, judges, customs inspectors and others whose jobs need to detect lies. In these studies, these people were no better at detecting lies than ordinary people.6. Men tell fewer lies than women.A. True B. False7. We lie differently to different types of people.A. True B. False8. What is the main idea expressed in the passage?A. Lies must be avoided, though nearly impossible.B. People should feel ashamed of telling lies.C. Lying is actually a common phenomenon in social communication.D. People are bad at detecting lies.9. According to the passage, we can infer that . A. people tend to claim that they do lie, but not out of ill intentionsB. lying shouldnt have become a universal communication styleC. college students are No. 1 liarsD. those who are not good at detecting lies should not be police officers, customs inspectors and others whose job needs to detect lies10. The word “detect” in the third line of the last paragraph is closest in meaning to . A. remind B. remember C. caution D. noticePassage ThreePeople all over the world today are beginning to hear and learn more and more about the problem of pollution. Pollution is caused either by mans release of completely new and often artificial substances into the environment, or by releasing greatly increased amounts of a natural substance, such as oil from oil tankers into the sea.The whole industrial process which makes many of the goods and machines we need and use in our daily lives, is bound to create a number of waste products which upset the environmental balance, or the ecological balance. Many of these waste products can be prevented or disposed of sensibly, but clearly while more and more new and complex goods are produced there will be new, dangerous wastes to be disposed of, for example, the waste products from nuclear power stations. Many people, therefore, see pollution as only part of a larger and more complex problem, that is, the whole process of industrial production and consumption of goods. Others again see the problem mainly in connection with agriculture, where new methods are helping farmers grow more and more on their land to feed our ever-increasing populations. However, the land itself is gradually becoming worn out as it is being used, in some cases, artificial fertilizers cannot restore the balance.Whatever its underlying reasons, there is no doubt that much of the pollution caused could be controlled if only companies, individuals and governments would make more efforts. In the home there is an obvious need to control litter and waste. Food comes wrapped up three or four times in packages that all have to be disposed of; drinks are increasingly sold in bottles or tins which cannot be reused. This not only causes a litter problem, but also is a great waste of resources, in terms of glass, metals and paper. Advertising has helped this process by persuading many of us not only to buy things we neither want nor need, but also to throw away much of what we do buy. Pollution and waste combine to be a problem everyone can help to solve by cutting out unnecessary buying, excess consumption and careless disposal of the products we use in our daily lives.11. The main cause of pollution is the release of artificial or natural substances
