He’s not very skilled at it, but he loves it. Yesterday he didn’t play well. When he finished the game, he asked her mother, “Did I play well?” Linda said, “Yes! You’re a great football player!” Her words sparked (触发) a discussion about lying to children. Amy thinks Linda did a right thing. Sometimes we have to tell while lies that are not harmful. It is necessary to tell while lies in daily life. Linda just wanted to make her son feel good. But Jason doesn’t think parents should lie to our children. Linda lied to make her son feel better, but she missed a good chance of teaching him a life lesson. People should work hard for what they want. Maybe next time she can say, “No, you didn’t play well today. Great football players practice a lot. Let’s go and practice more.” The truth will make him strong and a good football player. In my opinion, parents should be honest to their children, but they don’t have to tell the whole truth. Next time when our child asks, “Did I play well?” We can say, “What do you think? Did you give your best?” Then our child can tell us what he thinks. That way, everything we say is true, and we avoid the truth that hurts him. 9. How does the writer start the topic? A. By giving an example. B. By listing numbers. C. By comparing the results. D. By using famous sayings. 10. Which sentence is a white lie if your friend did badly in a singing competition? A.

Linda shouldn’t let her son play football next time. B. Linda shouldn’t answer his son’s question next time. C. Linda should tell another white lie to her son next time. D. Linda should encourage (鼓励) her son to practise more next time. 12. Which opinion would the writer most probably agree with? A. Parents have to tell the whole truth. B. Telling lies to children is completely wrong. C. Parents should always make children feel good. D. Parents should be honest to their children, but try not to hurt them. D Penguins look funny with their big bodies, small heads, short necks and short legs. They are birds but they cannot fly. They are not fish but they can swim very fast.

Giraffes have big eyes on a small head and they can see very well. They are very tall, so they can eat from tall trees. However, with their long necks, it is difficult to drink water. They have to spread their front legs wide and bend (弯) their necks, so their heads can reach the ground. When they sleep, they sit on the ground and rest their heads on their backs.
