VI. Read the passage carefully and then choose the correct answers
Do you ever give excuses that are not really true? When and why? It seems that
everybody tells lies - well, not big lies, but what we call "white lies". The only real questions
are about when we lie and who we tell lies to. A recent study found that in conversation people
frequently stretch the truth. Here are some ways they do it.
People often lie because they want to hide something from someone. For example, a son
doesn't tell his parents that he is dating a girl because he doesn't think they will like her. In
stead, he says he is going out with the guys.
Sometimes people lie because they don't want to do something. For example, someone
invites you to a party. You think it will be boring so you say that you are busy and can't come.
Often we stretch the truth to make someone feel good. For example, your friend cooks
dinner for you, but it tastes terrible. Do you say so? No! You probably say "Hmm, this is
delicious!".
Other times we don’t want to tell someone bad news. For example, you have just had bad
day at work, but you don't want to talk about it. So, if someone asks about your day, you just
say everything was fine.
Telling "white lies" isn't really bad. Most of the time people do it because they want to
protect a friendship.

he tells lies.

A. is afraid that his parents don't like her B. is ashamed

A. saying something quite new B. making someone feel good
