议论文类 (I) In the world today, all of the people need recreation (消遣). We cannot work all the time if we are going to keep healthy and enjoy life. Everyone has his own way of relaxing. Perhaps the most popular form is to take part in sports. There are team sports, such as basketball and football; There are also individual (个人的) sports, such as swimming and running. Skating and mountain climbing are the most popular recreation for people who like to be outdoor. Not everyone who enjoys sports likes to take part in them. Many people like watching them on TV or listening to them on the radio. So many people like some forms of indoor recreation, such as watching TV, singing and dancing. It doesn’t matter whether we like indoor recreation or take part in outdoor sports. It is important for everyone to relax from time to time, and enjoy some forms of recreation. 1.Which is the most popular form of recreation according to this text? A.Sports. B.Watching TV.

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 an other 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(广告商) 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 Yucky Company. This kind of deception happens too often.It’s a sad fact of life：Lies are lies，and sometimes the truth can 1ie as well. 1.How much did the lottery winner lose? A.one hundred dollars.

B.Half-truths are often used to mislead people. C.Doctors like to act in advertisements. D.Advertisements are based on facts. 5.How many examples does the writer give to show how the truth is used to deceive? A.One. B.Two. C.Three. D.Four. 6.Which of the following is true according to the passage? A.Using half truths is against the law. B.Technically，half truths are in fact lies.
