     Mothers who feel their children don" t appreciate them can add another grievance to the list: half
the time, their children are lying to them.A study designed to expose the truth about lying shows that
undergraduates lie to their mothers in 46% of their conversations.Still, mums should feel better than
total strangers, who are told lies an astonishing 77 % of the time.
     Bella Depaulo and a team of psychologists from the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, asked
77 undergraduates to keep a record of all their conversations for a week, and write down whethe
r they lied at any time.DePaulo named lying broadly, as "when you intentionally try to mislead
someone", so she would catch the smallest of lies.
     The students told an average of two lies a day.They said they had been studying when they had
been out drinking.One told his parents that a textbook cost $50 rather than $20 so that they would
send him extra money.Female students constantly told their plain-looking roommates that they were
pretty."They are everyday lies," says DePaulo.
     DePaulo and her colleagues conclude that people tend to tell fewer lies to those they feel closest to.
College students lied to their best friends 28% of the time but lied to acquaintances 48% of the time.
In close relationships, people were more likely to tell "kind-hearted" lies, designed to protect feelings,
rather than self-serving lies.
     Romantic partners are somewhere between close friends and acquaintances.Students lied to
romantic partners about a third of the time. DePaulo thinks that unmarried lovers can expect less honesty
than best friends because of the insecurity that comes with romance.
     Mothers can take heart from one other finding. They may have been lied to, but at least their children
talked to them.The students were recorded telling few lies to their fathers because they had little
interaction with them.1. According to the passage, college students felt closest to ______.A. mothers            
B. best friends    
C. acquaintance        
D. romantic partners2. Female students lied to their roommates to       .A. get money from them          
B. offer them the services
C. gain more security      
D. make them happy3. What is the purpose of this article?A. To present a fact.              
B. To argue an idea.
C. To tell a story.            
D. To explain a theory.

     "How lucky you are to be a doctor…" Anyone who"s a doctor is right out of luck,  I thought.
Anyone_who"s_studying_medicine_should_have_his_head_examined.
     You may think I want to change my job. Well,  at the moment I do. As one of my friends says-even
doctors have a few friends-it"s all experience. Experience! I don"t need such experience. I need a
warm, comfortable and undisturbed bed all my own. I need it badly. I need all telephones to be thrown
down the nearest well. That"s what I need.
     All these thoughts fly round my head as I drive my Mini(微型汽车) through the foggy streets of
East London at 3:45 am on a December morning. I am a ministering angel in a Mini with a heavy coat
and a bag of medicines. As I speed down Lea Bridge in the dark at this horrible morning hour, the heater
first blowing hot then cold, my back aching from the car seat, I do not feel like a ministering angel. I
wish I were on the beach in southern France. Call me a bad doctor if you like. Call me what you will.
But don"t call me at half past three on a December morning for an earache that you have had for two
weeks.
     Of course,  being a doctor isn"t really all bad. We_do_have_our_moments. Once in a while people
are ill, once in a while you can help, once in a while you are given a cup of tea and rockhard cake at
two o"clock in the morning-then you worry if you have done everything. But all too often "everything" is
a repetitious rule: look,  listen, feel, tap, pills, injection,  phone, ambulance and away to the next.
     And then there is always the cool, warm voice of the girl on the switchboard of the emergency bed
service who will get your patient into hospital for you-the pleasant voice that comes to you as you stand
in the cold, dark, smelly and dirty telephone box somewhere in a dangerous section of town. Oh,  it has
its moments, and this life does.

     Teen Dating can be fun if you are aware(知道)of its pros and cons and are also aware of the ways
to protect yourself. There are a couple of suggestions you would like to know before you are out for
dating.
     Do not go out for dating with somebody whom you have seen only a few times and does not know
much about him or her.
     Before leaving on a date,know the exact plans for the evening and make sure a parent or friend
knows these plans and what time to expect you home. Let your date know that you are  expected to
call or tell that person when you get in.
     Similarly, if you leave a party with someone you do not know well,make sure you tell another person
you are leaving and with whom. Ask a friend to call and make sure you arrive home safely.
     No matter how good the person appears to you,trust your inner instincts(直感). If a situation makes
you uncomfortable,try to stay calm and think of a way to remove yourself from the  situation without
letting your date realize what is going on in your mind.
     Always stay firm,straightforward and clear in your relationships,thoughts,decisions and judgments.
Never let a doubt come to your mind or face when out for dating. If you are firm and  clear in your
communication,your date will always be careful in dealing with you.
     You should think ahead about ways to be safe if you are in a dangerous or potentially(潜在)
dangerous relationship. Adults,like parents,teachers,counselors,can be trusted in such cases.

     There has been an outpouring of love for a 23yearold disabled woman whose dog was killed in front
of her while a groomer(美容师)tried to trim(修剪)its claws.
     Calls and emails came from as far away as the Upper Peninsula and Arizona as well as Oakland and
Macomb counties, offering Laurie Crouch, who uses a wheelchair because of multiple sclerosis(硬化症), everything from dogs to money, such as that from Jason Daly of Roseville who said, "I would like
to buy her a new dog."
     A story about the death of Crouch"s pet, Gooch, was printed on the front page of Macomb Daily.
Crouch said a groomer tied Gooch up with a collar, and then she and a man sat on the dog to trim its
nails. Gooch died after one claw was trimmed.
     Crouch yelled at the groomer to stop when she saw Gooch was struggling to breathe, but she said
she was ignored. "If I could have walked, I would have put my hands on her and pulled her off my dog
and physically stopped her, but I can"t do that." Gooch was not a trained service animal, but naturally
helped Crouch by picking up things for her.
     "This case is absolute animal abuse(虐待)," Larry Obrecht, division manager of the Oakland County
Animal Shelter in Auburn Hills, said.
       People who read the story contacted Oakland Press to offer help. A message,  from Rebecca
Amett of Giggles N Wiggles Puppy Rescue in Roseville, said, "We have puppies to donate…and want
to help the young woman who lost her service dog."
     "When Gooch was with me I was happy," Crouch said, "I think I can be happy again but no animal
can replace Gooch. There"s never going to be another Gooch out there but I think I will find a dog that
can bring me joy again."
