What is the best way to catch someone who is telling a lie?
For a long time,the traditional method of catching liars was to watch their body language.Many people-from parents to police officers depend on this method.But does a person's body tell us the truth?
According to a new study,it is not the case.Researchers in the UK recently found that talking seems to be the best way to smoke out a liar.Their study took place at an airport.
The researchers asked volunteers to pretend they were real passengers and then lie to airport security officers.Some of the officers used conversation methods to question them,while other officers depend on their body language.The officers using the talking method were 20times more likely to catch the liars.
Like many methods,this talking technique has a name.It is called Controlled Cognitive Engagement or CCE for short.Here are four ways of catching a liar.
①Use open-ended questions.
These are the opposite of"Yes"and‘"No"questions.Open-ended questions force the person to continue the story of their lies until they are caught in their own web of lies.
②Surprise them.
Ask questions they may not think you are going to ask.Ask questions that are surprising or off-topic.This will make it harder for them to keep lying.
③Look for small details that do not make sense.
Ask them details in their stories and look for facts that seem to disagree with each other.But do not let them know you know.Just let them dig themselves deeper into a hole.
④Watch for changes in confidence and speaking styles.
Liars will often change their speaking styles when they are questioned.For example,when they feel in control they may be very talkative.But if they feel they are losing control,they may not talk much at all.

分析 本文屬于說明文閱讀,作者通過這篇文章主要向我們描述了抓住說謊的人最好的方法
解答 46.A;主旨大意題.文章第一段What is the best way to catch someone who is telling a lie以"抓住說謊的人最好的方式是什么"這一問句開頭,下文也全部在介紹如何抓住說謊的人,所以應該選擇 A 選項.故選A.
47.D;細節(jié)題理解題.題目問的是下面哪種方式更可能幫助你你抓住說謊的人.A 選項意思為問他問題如果他說的是真話,文章說的是怎樣抓住說謊的人,與文章不符.B 選項定位到文章②Surprise them 部分,文章并未提到通過提高聲音來使他們驚訝.C 選項文章第四段最后一句說的是使用說話方法的人比使用關注肢體語言的人有 20 倍的可能抓住說謊的人,故排除.D 選項在文章最后一段Liars will often change their speaking styles when they are questioned.For example,when they feel in control they may be very talkative提及,要注意到某人信心的變化,所以為正確選項.故選D.
48.B 細節(jié)理解題.根據題目定位到文章①Use open-ended questions 部分.可知問一些開放式的問題來抓住說謊者是因為他們很難撒謊;故選B.
49.C 詞義猜測題.一些安檢員用對話方式來提問"他們","他們"指代的就是上句提到的研究志愿者;故選C.
50.D 判斷對錯題,也屬多細節(jié)題.D 根據文章第二段For a long time,the traditional method of catching liars was to watch their body language.Many people-from parents to police officers depend on this method,觀察人們的肢體語言才是父母和警察廣泛使用的方法,CCE 并未被父母和警察廣泛使用,故選D
B 題型
46.At an airport.細節(jié)理解題,根據題目定位到文章第三段Their study took place at an airport可知實驗在機場進行的;故填At an airport.
47.It is called Controlled Cognitive Engagement or CCE for short.細節(jié)理解題.根據題目定位到文章第五段. Here are four ways of catching a liar.可知說謊者的談話方法叫控制認知參與或CCE短;故填It is called Controlled Cognitive Engagement or CCE for short
48.Because This will make it harder for them to keep lying.細節(jié)理解題.根據題目定位到文章②Surprise them 部分可知在找騙子的時候提出令人吃驚的問題為了使他們更難撒謊;故填Because This will make it harder for them to keep lying.
49.The officers using the talking method were 20 times more likely to catch the liars.推理判斷題.根據題目定位到文章第四段最后一句Because This will make it harder for them to keep lying.可知使用談話法的警官比說謊者多20倍;故填The officers using the talking method were 20 times more likely to catch the liars.
50.They may be very talkative.根據題目定位到文章最后一段For example,when they feel in control they may be very talkative可知說謊者控制自己時是很健談的;故填They may be very talkative
點評 考察學生的細節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力,做細節(jié)理解題時一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進行比較,再做出正確的選擇.在做推理判斷題不要以個人的主觀想象代替文章的事實,要根據文章事實進行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.
