Have you ever had the experience of talking to someone and you think they are lying? Well, you are not alone. We’ve all had that feeling. But did you know that there are several things you can look for to see if you are being lied to?
Sometimes you can tell if a person is lying by observing what they do with their body. When people are lying they tend not to move their arms, hands or legs very far from their body. They don’t want to take up very much space because they don t want to be noticed. Sometimes a person who is lying will not look you in the eyes. Other times people who lie try to look at you in a strong way because they want to convince you they are telling the trugh.
Liars also use deflection. For example, if you ask a liar the question “Did you steal Fatima’s bag?” they may answer with something like “Fatima is my friend. Why would I do that?” In this situation the person is telling the truth, but they are also not answering the question. They are trying to deflect your attention. Liars may also give too many details. They may try to over-explain things. They do this because they want to convince you of what they are saying.
Often when a person is lying, they do not want to continue talking about their lie. If you think someone is lying, quickly change the subject. If the person is lying, they will spear more comfortable because they are not talking about their lie any longer. A little later, change the subject back to what you were talking about before. If the person seems uncomfortable again, they may be lying.
It’s very hard for a liar to avoid filling silence created by you. He or she wants you to believe the lies being woven; silence gives no feedback on whether or not you’ve bought the story. If you’re a good listener, you’ll already be avoiding interruptions, which in itself is a great technique to let the story unfold.
Just because a person is showing these behaviors, it does not mean they are lying. They might be shy or nervous. But, if you think someone is lying, you might want to use some of these techniques. Hopefully, you won’t need to very often.
1.According to the passage, a person could be lying he or she ________.
A. offers more information than necessary
B. appears to be shy or nervous
C. the subject of the conversation
D. speaks very fast and vaguely
2.Which of the following can be learned from the passage?
A. Liars always try to avoid direct eye contact when they tell lies.
B. We can make people lie by changing the subject in a conversation.
C. Liars are often expansive in hand and arm movements while talking.
D. We make liars uncomfortable by giving no feedback in a conversation.
3.The passage mainly talks about ________.
A. who deceives us B. why people tell lies
C. how to detect lies D. what to do with liars

When the musical sound rings you, you immediately reach for your pocket ready to have a chat. But although you probably use it all the time, have you ever thought about the manners related to talking on the phone? If you haven’t, here are some tips to guide you.
●Always give the person you are calling plenty of time to get to the phone before you hang up. If the person who answers is not the one you want, give your name and ask if you may speak to the person you want.
●Think about the time you call people. Try not to call too early in the morning (before about 9:00) or too late at night (after about 9:30). Also try not to call at mealtimes.
●If you go by plane to visit your relatives at Christmas, remember to follow airline instructions. Cell phone must be turned off as soon as the plane doors are closed and remain so until the doors open again on arrival.
●When you’re face to face with someone, do not talk on the phone. It is rude to be on the phone when a waiter is trying to take your order in a restaurant, or when you are returning the shoes you have just been trying on in a shop. Finish any face-to-face business before taking a call. Continuing to use the phone while nodding to the person in front of you is quite impolite.
●When in a restaurant with your friends, keep phone conversations short. Make a call only if it is important. Practice speaking in a low voice. If no one turns to your way, you’ve got it.
●If you go to a theatre, a concert or a cinema, consider the other people around you. Check that your phone is “off” before you enter. If you are expecting a very important call, put your phone on “vibrate”(振动) and run for the exit as soon as you feel it. If you forget both “off” and “vibrate” and your phone rings, don’t answer it, turn it off straight away.
1.Which is TRUE according to the passage above?
A. You may call people anytime you like.
B. You may talk loudly on the phone at dinner in the restaurant.
C. You may keep on talking on the phone while greeting somebody.
D. You may call people as soon as you get on the plane, but not after the doors are closed.
2.We may infer from the tips that ______.
A. some people didn’t pay much attention to manners while making cell phone calls.
B. You must hang up quickly if the person you are calling is not the one you want.
C. calling people too early or too late is not polite.
D. almost everyone has got a cell phone.
3.What does the underline sentence “… you’ve got it.” mean in the passage?
A. You have succeeded in making a call without disturbing others.
B. You have made the phone call short and interesting.
C. You have got the message you are waiting for.
D. You have made a phone call secretly.
4.From the tips given above, we can decide the writer must agree with the opinion that ______.
A. like the saying “clothes make a man”, nowadays cell phones make a man
B. as the old saying goes, money talks, nowadays cell phones talk
C. the way we use the cell phones tells what we are like
D. we are what cell phones we use
5.From the tips given above, how do you consider the other people around you at a theatre?
A. Talk with them and make friends with them.
B. If you forget both “off” and “vibrate” and your phones rings, answer it immediately.
C. If it is an important call, you can answer it on your seat.
D. Check that your phone is not turned on before you enter.
