①Pang Donglai is a famous shopping group in China. Its story began in 1995 in Xuchang, Henan Province. In the early stage (早期), it was just a 40-square-meter store, and it sold candies, cigarettes, and wine. Only two workers served customers there. But through hard work, it grew into a big company with over 30 supermarkets and thousands of smiling workers.
②People love Pang Donglai for its honest service. When you buy fruit or vegetables, workers carefully wipe off water before weighing (称重) them, so customers pay only for the food, not extra water.
③Pang Donglai also treats its workers well. Every worker earns about 8,000 yuan each month—that’s much higher than other stores! They work only 6-7 hours a day and enjoy 40 days’ paid holiday every year. “I took my family to Hainan last winter!” said cashier (收银员) Li Na happily.
④What’s more, Pang Donglai opens its heart to society. When earthquakes hit, it sent truckloads of water and blankets. When floods (洪水) came, it donated millions to rebuild schools. “Money should warm people’s hearts.” says its founder, Yu Donglai.
⑤Pang Donglai becomes more than a store. It becomes a warm friend to all people. It shows three important values: good care for workers, honest service for customers and kind help for society. This is the secret of its real success.

Many people think heirlooms (传家宝) are expensive things. However, Sara doesn’t think so. She has a few heirlooms. Anyone can buy them in a shop. However, they are special to her because they belonged to her grandmother.
After Sara’s grandmother died, her family chose something of hers to keep to remember her. As Sara lived far away, her mother picked things out for her—a tablecloth, a mirror, and an old pot. Sara kept these things, but she didn’t use them much, The tablecloth didn’t fit her tables. She didn’t like the color of the mirror frame (镜框), and the pot was too small and old.
Sara’s life changed when she read something in a book: Don’t keep anything in your house that you don’t find useful or beautiful. That’s right. “But what about sentimental (情感的) things like heirlooms? They’re beautiful if they remind us of good times with loved ones,” Sara thought.

Some people get so used to lying that they do so even when there is no clear purpose. Over the years, I’ve worked with a number of these people and learned a bit about how they think. Believe it or not, their lying makes some sense when you look at it through their eyes.
The lie might not seem important to you, but it matters a lot to them. They think it’s a big deal. They might be putting too much pressure on themselves or the situation.
To some people, telling the truth can feel like giving up control. Often, people want things to go their way. The truth might not fit their plan, so they avoid it.
Or they just don’t want to disappoint you. Even though it might not seem like it, people who lie a lot are often worried about losing the respect of those around them. They fear that the truth could make you turn away from them.
However, lies can grow. One small lie leads to more lies to cover it up. If the liars admit to (承认) any single lie, they feel like they’re admitting to being a liar, and that’s scary.
At other times, it’s not a lie to them. They might truly believe their lies at that moment.
Studies show that many things influence our memories. Stress, current (当前的) events and their desire (愿望) for things to go well can make them remember things differently.
Moreover, liars want their lies to be true. Sometimes, they hope that they can make something come true by saying it over and over again.
Most people are honest most of the time. Even if some people lie more, they’re usually honest. Instead of asking why they lie, try to understand why the situation is so important to them. Showing empathy (同理心) and praising honesty can encourage more truth-telling.
Being honest is important, and helping others be honest is also a good thing.
13. According to the passage, what may happen after someone tells a small lie?
A. They forget it quickly. B. They need to tell more lies to cover it.
C. Everyone will believe them. D. They feel very happy.
14. Which of the following is NOT the reason why people lie?
A. They want things to go their way and lie to avoid the truth.
B. They are afraid of losing respect.
C. They feel scared about admitting to being a liar, so they tell more lies to cover it up.
D. They like to control others by telling lies.
15. What can we infer from the passage?
A. People who lie don’t care about others’ opinions.
B. Once people start lying, they will never stop.
C. Understanding the reasons for lying may help reduce it.
D. Everyone lies often in their daily life.
16. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Why people lie and how to help them. B. Why lying is always bad.
C. How to be an honest person. D. How to catch liars.

Some people get so used to lying that they do so even when there is no clear purpose. Over the years, I’ve worked with a number of these people and learned a bit about how they think. Believe it or not, their lying makes some sense when you look at it through their eyes.
The lie might not seem important to you, but it matters a lot to them. They think it’s a big deal. They might be putting too much pressure on themselves or the situation.
To some people, telling the truth can feel like giving up control. Often, people want things to go their way. The truth might not fit their plan, so they avoid it.
Or they just don’t want to disappoint you. Even though it might not seem like it, people who lie a lot are often worried about losing the respect of those around them. They fear that the truth could make you turn away from them.
However, lies can grow. One small lie leads to more lies to cover it up. If the liars admit to (承认) any single lie, they feel like they’re admitting to being a liar, and that’s scary.
At other times, it’s not a lie to them. They might truly believe their lies at that moment.

Moreover, liars want their lies to be true. Sometimes, they hope that they can make something come true by saying it over and over again.
Most people are honest most of the time. Even if some people lie more, they’re usually honest. Instead of asking why they lie, try to understand why the situation is so important to them. Showing empathy (同理心) and praising honesty can encourage more truth-telling.
Being honest is important, and helping others be honest is also a good thing.
13. According to the passage, what may happen after someone tells a small lie?
A. They forget it quickly. B. They need to tell more lies to cover it.
C. Everyone will believe them. D. They feel very happy.
14. Which of the following is NOT the reason why people lie?
A. They want things to go their way and lie to avoid the truth.
B. They are afraid of losing respect.
C. They feel scared about admitting to being a liar, so they tell more lies to cover it up.
D. They like to control others by telling lies.
15. What can we infer from the passage?
A. People who lie don’t care about others’ opinions.
B. Once people start lying, they will never stop.
C. Understanding the reasons for lying may help reduce it.
D. Everyone lies often in their daily life.
16. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Why people lie and how to help them. B. Why lying is always bad.
C. How to be an honest person. D. How to catch liars.
【答案】13. B 14. D 15. C 16. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要分析人们说谎的各类原因,同时介绍了鼓励人们讲真话的方法。
【13题详解】
根据文章第五段“One small lie leads to more lies to cover it up.”可知,一个小小的谎言出现后,人们需要说出更多谎言来掩盖它。
【14题详解】
根据第三段“people want things to go their way... so they avoid it”可知A项是原因;根据第四段“worried about losing the respect of those around them”可知B项是原因;根据第五段“If the liars admit to any single lie... that's scary”可知C项是原因。文章提到说谎者感觉说实话像是放弃控制(giving up control),希望事情按自己的意愿发展,但并未明确提到是为了“控制他人(control others)”,故D项不是文中提到的原因。故选 D。
【15题详解】
根据文章最后一段“Instead of asking why they lie, try to understand why the situation is so important to them. Showing empathy and praising honesty can encourage more truth-telling.”可以推断,理解说谎背后的原因有助于减少说谎行为。
【16题详解】
通读全文可知,文章前大半部分分析了人们说谎的各种心理原因(如压力、控制欲、害怕失去尊重等),最后一段提出了如何帮助说谎者更诚实的建议(如理解、同理心)。因此本文主要讲述人们说谎的原因以及如何帮助他们。选项A“Why people lie and how to help them.”最能概括全文主旨。
