Honesty is a virtue, and telling a lie is morally wrong. But how can you know if someone is {#blank#}1{#/blank#}? The answer is, they're probably not. Traditional economics says that people are rational beings who will lie if it is {#blank#}2{#/blank#} their advantage. A recent university study has shown that, actually, we're pretty honest ―especially {#blank#}3{#/blank#} we're at home.

Researchers in Germany phoned people at home and asked them to toss a coin. There was a strong financial incentive (激励) to fake the result: if the coin landed tails-up, the participant would receive money or a gift voucher, while if the coin landed heads-up, they would get {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. Because they were on the phone, they knew there was no {#blank#}5{#/blank#} of getting caught if they lied. And yet people revealed the truth despite that they {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (receive) nothing. Over hundreds of tosses a coin will land tails-up roughly 50% of the time. In this study over half the people (55.6%) asked said that the coin landed heads-up. Most of them didn't pursue the reward at the {#blank#}7{#/blank#} of honesty.

    Previous studies had found that people were more dishonest. In those laboratory studies 75% of people, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (include) some who faked the results, reported a winning coin and claimed a reward. So the research team guesses it's being in our own home {#blank#}9{#/blank#} makes us play fair. {#blank#}10{#/blank#}, what motivates people to do so remains unclear.

    There has been a recent trend in the food service industry toward lower fat content and less salt. This trend, which was started by the medical community(医学界){#blank#}1{#/blank#}a method of fighting heart disease, has had some unintended side{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(effect) such as overweight and heart disease—the very thing the medical community was trying to fight.

    Fat and salt are very important parts of a diet. They are required{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(process) the food that we eat, to recover from injury and for several other bodily functions. When fat and salt{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(remove) from food, the food tastes as if is missing something. As{#blank#}5{#/blank#}result, people will eat more food to try to make up for that something missing. Even{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(bad), the amount of fast food that people eat goes up. Fast food{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(be) full of fat and salt; by{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(eat) more fast food people will get more salt and fat than they need in their diet.

    Having enough fat and salt in your meals will reduce the urge to snack(吃点心) between meals and will improve the taste of your food. However, be{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(care) not to go to extremes. Like anything, it is possible to have too much of both,{#blank#}10{#/blank#}is not good for the health.

    A new football competition，Man V Fat，has been organize recently in England．{#blank#}1{#/blank#} (judge) from the name, it is easy to guess that players can only join if they are fat. They can only win when they score or lose {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(pound) after each game．So，the aim of this competition is  {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(get) overweight men to do regular exercise．

    Jay Ali，a bank manager，{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(find) it a brilliant idea．He said，“I don't want to go to weight loss classes in {#blank#}5{#/blank#}almost all participants are women．And I don't want to play football with my friends who are all{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (fat)than me，so this gives me the perfect opportunity to exercise with guys who are the same{#blank#}7{#/blank#} me．Here，no one judges me，so I don't have to get{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(embarrass)”．Mr Shanahan from Staffordshire shared the same opinion，“I took part in the competition after getting fed up with weight loss classes which were {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(main) filled with women．”

    {#blank#}10{#/blank#} seems that this football competition has offered overweight men an effective way to lose  weight．

    The party began shortly after nine. Mr. Wood, who lived in the flat below, sighed to himself as he heard {#blank#}1{#/blank#} （excite） voices and the noisy music. Luckily, he had brought some work home from the office, with {#blank#}2{#/blank#} he kept himself busy for a couple of hours, thus managing to pay no attention{#blank#}3{#/blank#}the noise overhead. But by eleven o'clock he felt tired and was ready to go to bed though from his {#blank#}4{#/blank#}（early） experience he knew it was no use{#blank#}5{#/blank#}（try） to get to sleep. He undressed and{#blank#}6{#/blank#}（lie） for a while in bed, trying to read, but he found himself reading the same page over and over again. He then turned off {#blank#}7{#/blank#} light and buried his head in the pillow. But even so he could not shut off the noise. Finally, after{#blank#}8{#/blank#} seemed hours, his patience was gone.

    He jumped out of bed, put on some clothing, marched firmly up the stairs, and walked into his neighbor's apartment. The owner of the apartment came across the room and, {#blank#}9{#/blank#}Mr. Wood could say anything, cried, "My dear fellow, come and join us. I know our parties would trouble you. I meant to send you an invitation." Mr. Wood's anger disappeared then and there. He said, "I'd better go and get changed." Minutes later, he returned,{#blank#}10{#/blank#}（proper） dressed, only to find that the party was nearly over.
