 Beware of those who use the truth to deceive(欺骗). When someone tells you something that is  , but leaves out important information that should be  , he can create a false impression.
For example, someone might say, “I just  a hundred dollars on the lottery. It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and  it in for one hundred dollars!”
This guy is a winner,   ? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought two hundred  , and only one was a winner. He’s really a big  !
He didn’t say anything that was  , but he deliberately left out some important  . That’s called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically  , but they are just as not  .
Untrustworthy candidates in  campaigns often use this tactic(手段). Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, the state lost one million jobs and  three million jobs. Then she  another term. One of her opponents runs an ad  , “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!”That’s true.   , an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of  million jobs. ”
Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It’s  the law to make false claims so they try to mislead you with the  . An ad might boast, “Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples. ”It  to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation.

Many theories regarding the causes of juvenile delinquency(crimes committed by young people)focus either on the individual or on society as the major contributing influence.Theorieson the individual suggest that childrencriminal behavior before they were not sufficientlyfor previous misbehaviors or that they have learned criminal behavior through interaction with others.Theories focusing on the role of society suggest that children commit crimes into their failure to rise above their socioeconomic status or as a rejection of middle-class values.
Most theories of juvenile delinquency have focused on children fromfamilies,the fact that children from wealthy homes also commit crimes.The latter may commit crimes for lack of adequate control from parents.All,however,are uncertain or unimproved and are of course challenged with criticism.
Changes in the social structure may indirectlyjuvenile crime rates.For example,changes in the economy thatto fewer job opportunities for youth and rising unemployment make gainful employment increasingly difficult to obtain.This results inamong youths and may inlead more youths into criminal behavior.
Families have also experiencedthese years.More families consist of one parent households or two working parents;children are likely to have less supervision at home than was common in the traditional family.This lack of parental supervision is thought to be an influence on juvenile crime rates.Other noticeableof offensive acts includeexperience or failure in school,theavailability of drugs and alcohol,and the growing phenomenon of child abuse and child neglect.All these conditions tend to increase theof a child committing a criminal act,a direct cause and effect relationship has not yet been established.

The population could be_       6 900 million, almost 2 450 million more than in 1995. More people would move into cities, especially cities in _       _ countries. Cities like Cairo and Jakarta probably would_       have 15 million by then.
Food production will _       , but not enough to feed all the people. Farmers will grow 90% more food than they did in 1995, _       most of the increase would be in countries that _       produce enough food for their people. Little increase is         in South Asia, Africa and the Middle East. Poor farming ways are         large areas of crop land, changing farms into deserts. More farmland is         as cities become larger and more houses are built.        will get worse as industrial countries burn more coal and oil. Many of the world’s _       _  could disappear as more and more trees are cut down. Energy will continue to be a serious problem. The experts say their picture of the earth for the year 2020         . But they only carried out the situation that_       today. By changing the situation, by_       the problems, the picture can be changed. There is        _time for the nations of the world to work         a plan of action.

Another secret of animals’ survival is telepathy(心灵感应). This sense becomes atrophied(衰退) in man, but a(n)      thought-communication functions in animals. Elsa, the lioness, frequently         when George and I intended to visit her camp, even though it        180 miles from our home in Isiolo. On most          when we made our irregular visit she was waiting for us. By following the spoor(野兽的足迹),we          that she had sometimes walked 50 or 60 miles to meet us.
The same thing        when I took Elsa’s sisters to Nairobi to be flown to the Rotterdam zoo, Elsa’s zoo. Elsa stayed behind with George in Isiolo 180 miles          . He did not know when I was coming back, no person knew. But Elsa knew. On the morning of my          she sat down at the entrance and wouldn’t make any          until I arrived in the evening.
I have known this kind of thought-communication with the animal with whom I’ve lived. When Elsa died, I woke in the night, knowing what had happened, even though I was several miles away. The same thing          later with one of Pippa’s cubs.
I don’t          this sensitivity with my own kind. Feel far more in tune with what is going on when I am in the bush than when I am in London on Nairobi. We don’t know much yet about this telepathy from which gland(腺体) it comes, or how it        . But if men could awaken or       it in themselves, and then cooperate by trusting each other,         fearing and treating one another        , the world would be a far better place.
