LIES A PART OF HUMAN NATURE Everyone lies. In fact, lies are an important facet of humanity. For example, research shows that two acquaintances lie several times in the average ten minute conversation. Although we are told to always tell the truth from a very young age, parents lie about Santa Clause or about the pet dog's death. Parents also smile and say "thank you" when receiving a gift, then possibly bad-mouth it at home. These conflicting messages signal children to regard lies as okay. Psychologist Paul Ekman offers some basic reasons for lying. We lie to escape punishment, to get out of uncomfortable situations, to boost our egos, to receive a reward, to protect someone, or to control the flow of information. Everything from a large exaggeration to a small lie falls into one of these categories. Despite the fact that lying is an indivisible part of our psyche, we can only catch a lie about fifty percent of the time. The success rate is quite low, and suggests that we don't want to know that another person isn't being honest. Lies, some experts suggest, are the glue which holds society together. ***FURNITURE(TOPIC 5) 1. Do you have a lot of furniture in your home? 2. Has anyone bought a piece of furniture for you? 3. What kind of furniture would you like to buy? ANSWERS: 1.No, I do not have much furniture in my house.Because my parents do not like overcrowded spaces and so we just have basic furniture pieces in most rooms. 2.Yeah,all furniture in my home was bought in my childhood by my parents.Andonce,my uncle gifted me so cozy bed that it was the most costly present for me that time. 3.The idea of buying furnite has never crossed my mind but If it comes true I would opt for modern,contemprory furniture with clean lines. PART 2 Situation 5 Describe a family (not yours) that you are happy to know. Answer:Actually, I am truly blessed to know a number of great families, and today, I would like to talk about one such family who I have known for a long time. The family, I am talking about here, is none other than the family of a very good friend of mine. I have known them since my childhood when both I and my friend used to attend the same elementary school.However, even though, both I and my friend became close friends right after meeting each other at our elementary school, I didn’t really have a chance to meet the whole family of my friend until after they had come to watch an annual sports competition of our school, which was actually long time after I had met my friend. Needless to say, immediately after meeting them at my elementary school, I started to like the whole family of my friend, which included his parents, three elder brothers and a couple of younger sisters. By the way, one of the remarkable things about my friend’s family is that they always like to spend a lot of money in travelling and buying gifts for other people, even though, they may not necessarily be that rich.Anyway, since meeting them for the first time on that day, there had been hardly any week when I didn’t visit them at their place or one of my friend’s family member didn’t visit my family, even though, both my family and my friend’s family live at a fairly long distance from each other.Well, I like this family, mainly because each and every one of its member treated me like their own. In fact, since meeting them a long time ago, I can’t remember of a major festival of my country during which they didn’t buy me a gift or invite me to their place to have family feast Download 66.05 Kb.
