    There's nothing worse than someone lies to you. When it happens, you often wonder how someone can fool you successfully. Here are some tips on how to find the liar (说谎者).

The big pause (停顿)

    Lying is not an easy task for the body and brain to deal with. First, your brain has to hide the truth. And try to invent a new lie and act it out. This often leads to a longer pause than normal before answering. The liar often asks some questions like "Why do you ask that?" to get more time to think about it rather than a direct response.

The eye dart (急扫)

    Humans have more eye expressions than any other animal and our eyes can give away if we're trying to hide something. When we look up to our left to think, we're often trying to recall our memory. But when our eyes roll up to our right, we can be thinking more creatively.

The lost breath

    Bending (歪曲) the truth causes a stress response in most people. The mouth dries, the body sweats more, so they soon get wet. The pulse becomes more quickly and the rhythm of the breaming changes to shorter or shallower (浅的). These can often be both seen and heard.

Overcompensating (表现过激)

    A liar will often speak more and do more gestures. The liar often looks straightly at you without blinking his or her eyes. And he or she would do the same gesture again and again.

The poker face

    Some people prefer to use the poker face so that they can avoid eye contact when they're considering hiding the truth.

The face hide

    When someone tells a lie, he or she often has a strong feeling to hide his or her face. For example, he or she may touch the nose with hands or cover the mouth.

Self-comfort touches

    The stress and discomfort of lying often produces gestures that are to comfort the liar, such as rocking,hair-stroking or playing with wedding rings. When we are telling a lie, we may use these self-comfort gestures more often than usual.

(2)、The speaker may be telling the truth if ________.

(3)、What can we learn from the passage?
A、Someone may be lying when he uses some self-comfort gestures more often than usual. B、The body languages we act out are more important than words. C、We can trust one if he looks straightly at us without blinking his eyes. D、It is easy to control the rhythm of the breathing.
(4)、What is the passage mainly about?
A、How to control your body. B、Different ways to communicate with others. C、Tell a lie and tell the truth. D、How to tell who is lying.

① A survey(调查) has shown that lots of people can't sleep well. Sometimes you feel tired when you wake up. You may have a headache and you feel like you could sleep for another three hours. Many things around us cause sleeplessness. Here are a few changes you can make to improve your sleep.

②Go to bed and get up at the same time. You may share the same bedroom with your sister or brother. You both must go to bed regularly(规律地) so that you don't trouble each other.

③Clean up your bedroom. A study from a university in Zhengzhou found that people with clean bedrooms usually sleep better than those with dirty and untidy rooms.

④ Get more house plants. Studies show that house plants help with reducing (减轻)stress. Also, plants such as lavender(薰衣草) and gardenias(栀子花) have smells that may help some people relax and sleep better.

⑤ Make your room dark. When light hits your eyes, it tell you not to fall asleep. In fact, we need darkness especially in the evening. So if you want your body to know that it's time to rest, turn off the lights about an hour before bedtime or wear eye masks. Your phone and your TV should also be thought of. You may also use the dark curtaıns(窗帘) to keep any outside light from going into your bedroom.

⑥Lower your bedroom temperature. The body becomes cooler at night, so lowering the temperature before bedtime can help you relax and fall asleep more quickly. The NationalSleep Foundation in a country says your bedroom should be about 16 ℃ to 19℃ for a good night's sleep.
