2018年浙江省杭州市高考英语模拟试卷(一)副标题一、阅读理解(本大题共7小题,共17.5分)AA monk lived with his brother,a one-eyed idiot(a very stupid person).One day ,when the monk was scheduled to have an interview with a famous theologian(a scientist who studies religions)who had come from far away to meet him,he needed to take care of some matters and would therefore be absent when the theologian arrived.He told his brother:"Receive this scholar and treat him well!Don't say a word to him,and everything will be OK."The monk left the temple.Upon returning,he went to meet his guest."Did my brother receive you properly?"asked the monk."You brother is outstanding.He's a great theologian!"exclaimed the theologian with great enthusiasm."What do you mean?My brother---a theologian?"stuttered(结巴地说)the surprised monk."We had a passionate conversation,"replied the scholar."We communicated professionally by means of gestures.I showed him one finger and he replied by showing me two.Logically,I answered with three fingers and then he astonished me by raising a closed fist,ending the debate.With one finger,I implied the unity of Buddha.With two fingers,he expanded my point of view by reminding me that Buddha was inseparable from his theory.Delighted by the reply,with three fingers I expressed:Buddha and his theory in the world.Then he suggested a wonderful response,showing me his fist:Buddha,his theory and the world,all together as one whole."A little later,the monk went to look for his one-eyed brother."So how did it go earlier with the theologian?"he asked."Very simple,"said the brother."He made fun of me;he show me one finger emphasizing that I have but one eye.Not wanting to fall into the conflict,I showed that he was fortunate enough to have two eyes.Critically,he continued,‘ Be that as it may ,between us,we have three eyes.' That was the straw that broke the camel's back.Showing him a closed fist,I threatened to lay him out right then and there if he didn't stop his insulting challenges."1.According to the passage,the monk's brother is a person ______ .A. who was a great theologianB. who was a three-eyed idiotC. who was a one-eyed theologianD. who was a fool with only one eye2.The theologian thought the monk's brother as a great theologian because ______ .A. the brother was a one-eyed idiotB. the brother could communicate properly and politely by means of gesturesC. the brother had deep thoughts of BuddhismD. the theologian himself misunderstood the brother's gestures3.What would the monk do after he heard of his brother's explanation on how it went earlierwith the theologian?______A. The monk would be very angry with his brother and beat him.B. The monk would be very happy and praise him.C. The monk would apologize to the theologian and his brother.D. The monk would think what a funny misunderstanding it was.4.According to what the theologian said,he considered the monk's brother's fist to be themeaning of ______ .A. a threat to himB. an encouragement to himC. a unity of the Buddha,theory and the worldD. one eye of himself【答案】【小题1】D 【小题2】D 【小题3】D 【小题4】C【解析】1.D.细节理解题.由第一段A monk lived with his brother, a one-eyed idiot (a very stupid person).一个和尚和他的一个特别愚蠢的兄弟住在一起,可知选D.2.D.段落理解题.由两个人的回答With one finger, I implied the unity of Buddha. With two fingers, he expanded my point of view by reminding me that Buddha was inseparable from his theory,用一根手指,我暗示了佛陀的统一.他用两根手指,通过提醒我佛陀与他的理论密不可分,扩展了我的观点和He made fun of me;he show me one finger emphasizing that I have but one eye. Not wanting to fall into the con flict, I showed that he was fortunate enough to have two eyes.他取笑我,他给我看了一根手指,强调我只有一只眼睛.我不想卷入这场冲突,我证明他很幸运,有两只眼睛.可知是神学家误解了弟弟的手势语言.故选D.3.D.推理判断题.结合文意,由常情可推知,一个傻瓜被当做神学家,和尚会觉得是一个很有趣的巧合.故选D.4.C 细节理解题.神学家的解释里说Then he suggested a wonderful response,showing me his fist:Buddha,his theory and the world,all together as one whole.然后他提出了一个很好的回应,向我展示了他的拳头:佛陀,他的理论和世界,都在一起,可知选C.本文是一则幽默故事.神学大师站在自己的角度误解了和尚的傻瓜弟弟的手势语言.让人读着忍不住发笑.考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.BEducation is not a bystanders sport.Numerous researchers have shown that when students participate in classroom discussion they hold more positive attitudes toward school,and that positive attitudes promote learning.It is no coincidence that girls are more passive in the classroom discussion and score lower than boys on SATs.We found that at all grade levels in all communities and in all subject areas boys controlled classroom communication.They participated in more interactions than girls did,and their participation became greater as the year went on.Our research contradicted the traditional assumption that girls control classroom communication in reading while boys in math.We found that whether the subject was language arts and English or math and science,boys got more than their fair share of teacherattention.That teachers talk more to male students is simply because boys are more aggressive in grabbing their attention by calling out answers to the teachers' questions first.While girls sit patiently with their hands raised or keep silent.Psychologist Lisa Serbin and K.DanielO'Leary,then at the state university of New York at stony brook studied classroom interaction at preschool level and found that teachers gave boys more attention,praised them more often and were at least twice as likely to have extended conversations with them.Years of experience have shown that the best way to learn something is to do it yourself.It is also important to give students specific and direct feedback about the quality of their work and answers.Teachers behave differently depending on whether boys or girls are active to provide answers during discussions.During classroom discussion,teachers in our study reacted to boys answers with powerful,precise and effective responses,while they often gave girls mild and unclear reactions because of their silence.Too often,girls remain in the dark about the quality of their answers.Active students receiving precise feedback are more likely to achieve academically.And they are more likely to be boys.This kind of communication game is played at work,as well as at school.As reported in numerous studies,it goes like this.※ Men speak more often and frequently interrupt women.※ Listeners recall more from male speakers than from female speakers,even when both use a similar speaking style and cover the same content.※ Women participate less actively in conversation.They do more smiling and gazing,and they are more often the passive by standers in professional and social conversations among peers.※ Women often their own statements into unsure comments.This is accomplished by using qualifiers and by adding tag question.These uncertain patterns weaken impact and signal a lack of power and influence.Only when girls are active and treated equally in the classroom will they be more likely to achieve equality in the workplace.5.What does the authors mean when they say"Education is not a bystanders sport."?______A. Both boys and girls should do more sports.B. The girl students should be the audience to watch the boy students' discussions.C. The boy students should not be too active in the classroom discussions.D. Both boy and girl students should take an active part in the classroom discussions.6.Which of the following is Not true?______A. Girls' scores are lower than boys on SATs.B. Girls control classroom discussion in reading while boys in maths.C. Boys control classroom discussion in both reading and maths.D. Boys are more confident in calling out answers to catching the teachers' attention.7.The factors that contribute to the students' effective learning are the following except______A. The students can take an active part in the classroom discussion.B. The students do it themselves.C. Teachers can give students specific and direct feedback the quality of their work andanswers.D. Students transform their own statements into uncertain comments.【答案】【小题1】D 【小题2】B 【小题3】D【解析】1..D.细节理解题.具体细节信息理解加上全篇综合归纳得知,男生积极参加课堂互动,所以无论在考试中还是职场上都表现出色,占主导地位.2.B.细节信息理解.由第三段的Our research contradicted the traditional assumption that girls control classroom communication in reading while boys in math.We found that whether the subject was language arts and English or math and science,boys got more than their fair share of teacher attention.可知此处表达"我们的研究推翻了传统的假设,即女孩子在阅读中控制课堂交流,而男孩子在数学中控制课堂交流",由此可知答案选B.3.D.细节信息理解.由全文可知,A、B、C都是有利的因素,而D是说因为没有自信就将自己的想法变成不确定的询问式的看法,缺乏力量.这是不利于自己成长的因素.教育不是旁观者的活动.要想学有所获,必须积极参与其中互动.男生比女生更加积极地参与课堂互动,因此获得老师更多的直接指导,这使得他们的能力得到培养,个性也得到张扬,所以在今后的职场中也能够站统领地位.女性要想获得同等的地位,应该从积极参与课堂互动开始.在高考英语阅读中,社会文化教育类文章是主要考察材料类型.文化教育类文章由于其涉及面较广,文化含量较高,往往包含着英语使用国家的生活方式、文化类型、社会制度、风俗习惯、法律体系等等,往往通过该主旨大意题和事实细节题对考生对文章的理解程度进行考察.先读题目,再带着问题读文章.这类阅读理解文章相对来说事实细节题稍多一点,如果带着问题读文章,有利于我们抓细节.做完了局部性的事实细节题后,自然会加深我们对文章的理解,这样更有利于做主旨大意.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Eight Things That Lead to Success "What leads to success?"This may be a question asked by those who want to make something of their life.For seven years,Richard.John made 500 interviews.Here he wants to tell you what really leads to success.And the first thing is passion.Freeman Thomas says,"I'm driven by my passion."TED-sters do it for love;they don't do it for money.Carol Coletta says,"I would pay someone to do what I do."

And push!David Gallo says,"Push yourself.Physically.mentally,you've got to push,push,push.You gotta push through shyness and self-doubt."Goldie Hawn says,"I always had self-doubts.I wasn't good enough;I wasn't smart enough.I didn't think I'd make it."

(4)______ And the first thing I say to them is:"OK,well you can't serve yourself;you gotta serve others something of value.Because that's the way people really get rich."Ideas!TE D-ster Bill Gates says,"I had an idea:founding the first microcomputer software company."I'd say it was a pretty good idea.And there's no magic to creativity in coming upwith ideas- it's just doing some very simple things.And I give lotsof evidence.(5)______Joe Kraus says,"Persistence is the number one reason for our success."You got to persist through failure.You got to persist through CRAP! Which of course means "Criticism,Rejection,Assholes and Pressure." (Laughter)A.So why don't I ask them what helped them succeed,and pass it on to kids?B.And the interesting thing is:If you do it for love,the money comes anyway.C.Now a lot of kids tell they want to be millionaires.D.LED-sters do have fun working.And they work hard.E.Persist!F.Investing their money in pursuing a future lifestyle rather than in an academic conquest.G.Now it's not always easy to push yourself,and that's why they invented mothers.8.

Because t hat's the way people really get rich我对他们说的第一件事是:"好吧,你不能为自己服务;你必须为别人服务一些有价值的东西.因为这是人们真正致富的方式,这与C.

A man came home from work late,tired and irritated(不耐烦的), to find his 5-year-old son waiting for him at the door."Daddy, may I ask you a question?""Yeah sure, what is it?" replied the man."Daddy, how much do you make an hour?""That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?" the man said angrily."I just want to know. Please tell me,how much do you make an hour?" pleaded the little boy."If you must know, I make ﹩20 an hour.""Oh," the little boy replied,with his head down.Looking up,he said,"Daddy,may I please borrow ﹩10?"The father was angry,"If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense,then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed.Think about why you are being so selfish.I work hard every day for such childish behavior." The little boy quietly went to his room and shut thedoor.The man sat down and,started to get even angrier about the little boy'squestions.How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?After about an hour or so,the man had calmed down,and started to think:Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10 and he really didn't ask for money very often.The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door."Are you asleep,son?" He asked."No,daddy,I'm awake," replied the boy."I've been thinking,maybe I was too hard on you earlier," said the man."It's beena long day and I took out my anger on you.Here's the ﹩10 you asked for."The little boy sat straight up,smiling."Oh.Thank you,daddy!" He yelled.Then,reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled(皱皱巴巴的)up bills.注意:1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;2.应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语;3.续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好;4.续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语.Paragraph 1:The man,seeing that the boy already had money started to get angry again.______Paragraph 2:Not knowing what his son meant,the father just stood there,waiting for his boy's explanation.______【答案】"How can you be so selfish?Why do you want more money since you already have these bills?" The father could hardly hold his anger back and inquired with two eyebrows knitted into one.With held-back tears in his eyes,the little boy slowly and carefully counted out his money,and then looked up at his father,replying,"Because I didn't have enough before,but now I do." big blue eyes shining with tears.;Wiping away his tears and an innocent smile appearing on his face,the boy requested in a relieved voice,"Daddy,I have $ 20 now.Can I buy an hour from you?Please come home early tomorrow.I want to have dinner with you." Hearing the boy's small but sincere request,the father couldn't help shedding tears.Realizing he was too busy with his business to spare some time with hisbeloved ones,he gathered his son into his arms and apologized again and again,"sorry…,and I promise I'll be back early tomorrow."【解析】One possible version:Paragraph 1:The man,seeing that the boy already had money started to get angry again."How can you be so selfish?Why do you want more money since you already have these bills?(高分句型一)" The father could hardly hold his anger back and inquired with two eyebrows knitted into one.With held-back tears in his eyes,the little boy slowly and carefully counted out his money,and then looked up at his father,replying,"Because I didn't have enough before,but now I do." big blue eyes shining with tears.(父亲看到儿子手中已经有钱后感到生气)Paragraph 2:Not knowing what his son meant,the father just stood there,waiting for his boy's explanation.Wiping away his tears and an innocent smile appearing on his face,the boy requested in a relieved voice,"Daddy,I have $ 20 now.Can I buy an hour from you?Please come home early tomorrow.I want to have dinner with you."

ADear Mom,I haven’t written before for quite a while because I have got no energy. I now get around my room and this floor of the hospital with a walking stick but I can go only a little bit at a time because I’m awfully weak yet. My right leg was taken out of the cast (石膏) several days ago and it’s still as stiff as a board and awfully sore from so much carving around the knee joint. But the surgeon says that eventually it will be all right. I’ve included a picture of me in bed. It looks like my left leg is a stump (残肢), but it really isn’t. Just bent so it looks that way...This war makes us a bit less fools than we were. There isn’t going to be any such thing as “foreigners” for me after the war is won. I’ve gotten Italian pretty well. I’ve picked up quite a lot of Polish and my French is improving. You want to be prepared for a lot of visitors after the war now because I’ve a lot of pals coming to see me in Chicago. I don’t know when I’ll be back. I can’t get in the army and they won’t take me with two shaky legs in the draft (征兵) if I go home.So I might as well stay over here and avoid the awkwardness for a while.Also Ma, I’m in love again. Now don’t start worrying about me getting married for I’m not. I’m not even going to get engaged. So don’t write any “God Bless U, My Children”: Not for about 10 years. You’re a dear old kid, and still my best girl. God bless you and write me often... I love you.Ernie21. By mentioning that his right leg would be all right, the writer intends to ___________.A. show the cruelty of the warB. put his mom’s mind at easeC. persuade his girlfriend to marry himD. get his mom’s permission to join the army22. We can learn from the letter that ___________.A. Ernie is able to speak four foreign languagesB. Ernie hardly made any friends before the warC. Ernie hopes to keep in touch with his motherD. Ernie is engaged but hasn’t had the plan for marriage23. What emotion is mainly conveyed in the letter?A. Love for Mom.B. Fear about pain.C. Gratitude for doctors.D. Doubt about friendship.BWhen I heard the piano, I walked to Mrs. Windsor's house and waited outside as I always did. Thatmeant she was working with another student, and I was not supposed to bother them by ringing the bell. Istood against thewall and daydreamed what I' d rather be doing. "Almost anything", I sighed dejectedly.I had been tutored enough to read, understand, and even write some musical compositions, but I justdidn't have a gift for it. It didn’t come to me naturally. I thought back to happier times when I waswriting stories and acting them out with my friends, cutting up old clothes to make dresses that performerswear in plays, and building scenery out of old things we found. But Mrs. Windsor had offered to give methe lessons for free, so I felt my duty to try.The door opened and Wendy Barton came out. I walked in, sat down on the piano bench and began to sort through my sheet music."Hello," I heard a voice behind me say softly, I turned around to see a little girl standing behindme, eating an apple. But before I could make any response, Mrs. Windsor walked into the room in herusual urgent manner and announced,"Jennifer, this is my niece, Pasha. Pasha, this is Jennifer. Pashawill be giving you your lesson today. I'm up to my ears in something else!" she then exited to thekitchen.Pasha set her apple down on the side table and slid beside me on the piano bench."What piece do you like best?"she asked."What do you mean?" I asked. "They're all the same to me. I don't know."You mean you don't have a favorite?"" No, not really. "Pasha looked at me, rather puzzled, then opened my sheet music to the beginning page and asked meto play. I arranged my fingers on the keys and studied the notes on the page for a moment.Then I frownedand concentrated to make the notes on the page match the finger movements, I have to admit I was a rathermechanical pianist.After about a page or two, Pasha gently put her hand on top of mine as if to calm my fingers. Therewas a long pause. "What are you hearing in the music?" I looked at her rather strangely and admitted I didn’t know what she meant."Like a story. What story is being playing out within the music?""I guess I’ve never thought about it before. I don' t know. ""Here, let me try and you listen," Pasha advised.She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, letting her fingers dance lightly over the keys. Then, shebegan to play. "See, it begins here beside some kind of river. Hear the water flowing beside you?"Her fingers rose and fell gently on the keys. "Now the princess ap pears and she’s picking flowers fromthe water’s edge. "A carefree, happy piece of music filled the air in time to Pasha' s dancing fingers. "Oh, but she slips!" The music changed. "And our princess is being carried off bythe fast - flowing stream. Quickly, the princess' s horse sees her plight (因境) ," Pasha continued, and races to the river's edge where he swims out to let her catch hold of him. They make it to the bank and she hugs her faithfulhorse and swears she will never again wear princess skirts that weigh her down. She will only wear jeansand T - shirt from now on. " Pasha finished with a big smile and then looked at me."Aren't you the girl who tells the stories?" she asked."I guess. I do tell a lot of stories. ""Oh, yes! All the kids talk about them. I’ve heard about you. Well, all you have to do is learn tohear the stories in the music. That's all there is to it. ""I’ve never thought it that way. "" Let's try another one, shall we?" Pasha smiled and together we played that afternoon, finding thestories in the music and learning that sometimes it takes a friend to pull you out of the river onto dry landagain.24. Jennifer got lost in thought when she_______.A. played the piano with Pasha for the first timeB. listened to Pasha tell her story about the princessC. remembered happier times of writing stories and acting them outD. discovered that Mrs. Windsor's niece would be giving the piano lesson25. Which of the following can best describe Pasha?A. CreativeB.NaughtyC.HumorousD.Brave26. Which of the following is the hest title for the text?A. Never Give upB.A Piano LessonC. Why I Hated Playing the PianoD.A Friend for Ever27. This text would be probably found in_________.A.a collection of stories about friendship and learningB.a book of daily records about famous young musiciansC.a magazine series about the challenges of overcoming fearsD.a series of newspaper articles about musical instrumentsCWhen Apple cut its expectation benefit for the last quarter of 2018 because of slow sales of iPhones, markets were shocked. The company’s share price, which had been sliding for months, fell by a further 10% on January 3rd, the day after the news came out. Apple’s suppliers’ shares were also hit. But Apple’s pain is humans’ gain. The fact that these magical devices are now so popular is something to be celebrated.Nearly 4bn of the 5.5bn adults on the planet now have one smartphone. They connect billions of people to the internet’s huge amount of information and service s. Phones make markets more efficient and inspire growth. Yes, they can be used for wasting time and spreading disinformation. But the good far outweighs the bad. They might be the most effective tool of development in existence.Actually this slowdown is the result of market saturation (饱和). After a decade of rapid taking-in, there is much less opportunity to sell handsets to first-time buyers as so few of them are left. And replacement cycles are becoming longer as new models offer only insignificant improvements. For all but the craziest fans, the slowing pace of upgrades comes as a welcome relief.Does that mean innovation (创新) is slowing? No. The latest phones contain amazingly clever technology such as 3D face-scanners and cameras assisted by artificial intelligence. Moreover, smartphones also provide a foundation for extra innovations, like mobile payments and video streaming, and for future ones, such as controlling “smart” home equipment or robotaxis.As computers become smaller, still more person al and closer to people’s bodies, many scientists believe that wearable devices will be the next big thing. Even so, finding another product with the range of the smartphone is a tall order. The recent slowing of smartphone sales is bad news for the industry, obviously. But for the rest of humans it is a welcome sign that a transformative technology has become almost universal.28. The writer considers the slowdown of smartphone sales good news because ___________.A. it can make market more efficientB. i t slows crazy fans’ pace of upgradesC. it means less disinformation will spreadD. it indicates the popularity of smartphones29. We can infer from the text that ___________.A. wearable devices will take the place of smartphones very soonB. in the future people might take a smartphone-controlled robotaxiC. Apple’s suppliers’ shares hit a record high after the news came outD. Apple’s share prices are likely to go on sliding in the next decade30. What is the best title for the text?A. A Brand New Age for HumansB. Smartphone, a Good Tool or a Bad Tool?C. New Technology in SmartphonesD. Bad News for Apple, Good News for Humans第二节(共5小题:每小题2分計满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空自处的最佳选项。

ASeveral times my daughter had telephoned to say, “Mum, you must come and see the daffodils (水仙花)before they are over.” I wanted to go, but it was a two-hour drive from Lake Arrowhead. “I will go next Tuesday,” I promised, a little unwillingly, on her third call.The next Tuesday dawned cold and rainy. Still, I had promised, and so I drove there. When I finally walked into Carolyn’s house and hugged and greeted my grandchildren, I said, “Forget thedaffodils, Carolyn! The road is invisible in the cloud and fog, and there is nothing in the world except you and these children that I want to see!”My daughter smiled calmly and said, “We drive in this weather all the time, Mum. You will never forgive yourself if you miss this experience.”After about twenty minutes, we turned onto a small road and I saw a small church. On the far side of the church, I saw a hand-lettered sign that read “Daffodil Garden”.We got out of the car and each took a child’s hand, and I followed Carolyn down the path. Then, we turned a corner of the path, and I looked up and gasped. Before me lay the most beautiful sight! There were five acres of flowers! “But who has done this?” I asked Carolyn. “It’s just one woman,” Carolyn answered. “That’s her home,” Carolyn pointed to a well-kept A-frame house that looked small and modest in the midst of all that glory. We walked up to the house. On the patio (庭院), we saw a poster. “Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking” was the headline.The first answer was a simple one. “50,000 bulbs (鳞茎),” it read. The second answer was, “One at a time, by one woman.” The third answer was, “Began in 1958.”I thought of this woman whom I had never met, who, more than sixty years before, had begun -- one bulb at a time -- to bring the beauty and joy to the mountain top.21.

I Love Daffodils.BAn idea that started in Seattle's public library has spread throughout America and beyond. The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same time.In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched the " If All of Seattle Read the Same Book " project in 1998. Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong.In Chicago, the mayor appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the "One Book, One Chicago" program. As a result, reading clubs and neighbourhood groups sprang up around the city. Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot andcharacter.The only problem arose in New York, where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致)can be achieved. Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point, putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself.Ultimately, as Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.24. What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?A. To invite authors to guide readers.B. To encourage people to read and share.C. To involve people in community service.D. To promote the friendship between cities.25. According to the passage, where would the project be more easily carried out?A. In large communities with little sense of unity.B. In large cities where libraries are far from home.C. In medium-sized cities with a diverse population.D. In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached.26. According to Nancy, the degree of success of the project is judged by ______A. the careful selection of a proper book.B. the growing popularity of the writers.C. the number of people who benefit from reading.D. the number of books that each person reads.CDo 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, someone 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 one hundred dollars!”This guy’s a winner, right? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought $200 worth of tickets, and only one 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, an honest statement would have been,“During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of two million jobs.”Advertisers 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 Y ucky Company.This kind of deception happens too often. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimesthe truth can lie as well.27. How much did the lottery winner lose?A. One hundred dollars.B. Two hundred dollars.C. Three hundred dollars.D.

We may infer that the author believes people should .A. buy lottery tickets.B. make use of half-truths.C. be careful about what they are told.D. not trust the Yucky Company.29.What do the underlined words“net gain”in Paragraph 5 mean?A.
