21、   We often hear "Honesty is the best policy, and no one likes to be called a liar. But is dishonesty always wrong? Not necessarily.

According to psychologists, there are two types of lies: lies that help your relationships and the people around you are called pro-social lies; and lies that hurt them are called antisocial lies.

How often have you clicked "Like" on Moment Wechat, not because you actually like what your friends posted, but because you want to show your support? This white lie is an example of a pro-social lie. But when people tell lies on social networks to make their own lives seem more exciting, or to make others jealous, this is antisocial lying.

Workplace lies range from harmless lies to destructive untruthful statement. An example of a pro-social workplace lie is complimenting someone on their presentation—even though it was only average—because you know they were nervous beforehand. In this case your intention is simply to protect your colleague’s feelings. However, people sometimes tell bigger lies at work for the purpose of avoiding blame or to stay on the boss’s good side. These are antisocial lies. It's antisocial because your boss is likely to discover the truth and as a result, will probably stop trusting you.

Lying is also a significant part of the natural world. So it’s little wonder we resort to it almost reflexively. Human babies sometimes pretend to cry, check to see if anyone is listening, and then start crying again. By the age of five, children learn to say things that are completely untrue, and most nine-year-olds have mastered keeping secrets to protect themselves.

Lying can be incredibly harmful to our relationships and to the people around us. But that’s only true for antisocial lies. Pro-social lies have the opposite effect — they can actually help us.

【1】What may help us tell a pro-social lie from an antisocial lie?

A.The purpose it serves. B.The way it is told.

C.The occasion where it is told. D.The people it is told to.

【2】Why do we praise a colleague’s ordinary presentation?

A.To keep a positive relationship. B.To make our boss feel better.

C.To ease his/her nervousness. D.To avoid hurting his/her feelings.

【3】What does “resort to” in Paragraph 5 mean?

A.Admit to. B.Turn to. C.Show respect to. D.Look forward to.

【4】Which statement is supported by the passage?

A.We usually tell pro-social lies to protect our own feelings.

B.Lying always hurts both the liar and the person being lied to.

C.Lying on social media is pro-social, but face-to-face lying isn’t.

D.Sometimes, making people feel good outweighs telling the absolute truth.

【5】Which might be the best title of the text?

A.Lies that harm us. B.Lying is a second nature.

C.Lies that we need to tell. D.Honesty is the best policy.

22、Kindness and kids just seem to go hand in hand. But 62% of more than 2, 600 participants in the NBC News State of Kindness Poll believe that today’s kids are less kind than those in the past. Women (66%) feel about this kindness fall more strongly than men (58%). Most of the participants who feel that way (77%) thank parents caused the seeming lack of kindness among today’s children, with a few thinking that society,schools, or friends caused it.

At the same time,Americans say they don’t put kindness first when it comes to teaching kids values. Among all participants, honesty is taught more than kindness as well as other things like courage,leadership and storing work ethic(道德). But the younger generation—those aged 18-24—think highly of kindness rules. They choose kindness by 10% over honesty as the most important quality to teach kids.

The question of whether kindness is learned or taught—or somewhere in between—causes different opinions. According to the study,Americans have different opinions on whether kindness in something one is born with or needs to be learned and nurtured over time. Slightly more than half (52%) of the participants believe that all of us are born with the ability to show kindness, while 48% believe kindness must be developed.

Parenthood(父母身份) makes a difference to your thoughts on the causes of kindness. Those without kids (56%) are more likely to think that people are born to be kind, while 50% of the participants with kids think kindness is developed.

Also, 51% of dads and 54% of men with no kids believe kindness is something time is born with. Slightly more than half of the moms say kindness must be learned,while 48% believe it is what one is born with.
