听力原文: Although we are told when young that honesty is the best policy, we are often taught the opposite by experience and observation. A child quickly learns that she cannot always tell the truth. For instance, the little girl who tells her great aunt that she's fat and ugly learns that honesty can have some unfortunate results. Similarly the five-year-old who admits to pinching the baby soon has ample evidence that dishonesty might be the real virtue. In addition to her own experience, the child also observes that adults don't practice what they preach about honesty. Any alert child knows by the age of eight that adults really employ the little white lie to serve their own purposes. For instance, a child may hear a parent explain on the phone that his family have a lot of company when the child knows that no one is there but family members. Another child may hear her mother insist that she's terribly glad to see an old friend who has dropped by and then, two hours later, hear her mother complain about her day being interrupted by the visit. As a result, the child learns from watching that dishonesty is the practice even when honesty is the stated policy.

听力原文:W: We’re having a debate on advertising tomorrow and I have to take part.
M: That’s interesting. I should like to hear what young people think about advertising.
W: Well, we wouldn’t know what there was to buy if we didn’t have advertisements.
M: Yes, that’s true—up to a point. Advertisements provide information that we need. If someone has produced a new article, naturally the seller wants to tell us about it.
W: Yes, and advertisements tell us which product is the best.
M: Do they? I don’t think so. Every manufacturer says that his product is the best, or at least tries to give that impression. Only one can be the best, so the others are misleading us, aren’t they?
W: Well, I suppose, but we don’t have to believe them, do we?
M: Are you saying that advertisements aren’t effective? I don’t think that intelligent businessmen would spend millions of dollars on advertising if nobody believed the advertisements, do you?
W: Perhaps not, but after all, it’s their money that they’re spending.
M: Is it? I think not. The cost of advertising is added to the price of the article. You and me and all the other people who buy the article pay for the advertising!
W: Well, I suppose we get something for our money—some information.
M: Yes, but don’t forget it’s often misleading information, and sometimes harmful.
(23)
A.To take part in a debate.
B.To make an advertisement.

why didn't people wash in those days long ago?
Well, they did not have water in their house. They carried water from rivers or from holes in the ground (= wells). Towns people bought it from a water--carrier. Sometimes it was expensive; and soap was always expensive. They drank water, of course; and so they were clean inside. They did not think about the outside! And this is true; they just did not like a bath.
Modern life is different. We use a lot of soap and water. And we are all quite clean. However, a few people use too much soap; and they often get ill. Who are these people?
Many young women work as hairdressers. They wash and then "dress" other women's hair. That is their job, and they like it. Young hairdressers sometimes wash dirty heads on a busy day! Their hands are soapy for seven or eight hours; and that is not a good thing. A young hairdresser's hands are often red and ugly; and she must then go to doctor.
Long ago, people ______.
A.often died young
B.did not often have a bath
C.washed every day
D.washed every day and died young
