（2022·贵州·模拟预测）The sound coming from Taronga Zoo Sydney in Australia may sound like the cries of a human baby. ___36___ It’s just a brown, long-tailed bird named Echo that has learned how to mimic (模仿) the cries of human babies.
Echo is a superb lyrebird (琴鸟), an Australian bird named for the shape of its tail.___37___ It’s a U-shaped stringed instrument that was popular in ancient Greece. The zoo says lyrebirds are experts at mimicking.

Seven-year-old Echo can mimic the sound of a fire alarm and the “leave immediately” announcement at the zoo, Leanne Golebiowski, a bird expert at Taronga Zoo Sydney said ___38___ But it’s not clear how Echo perfected the calls, as the zoo is closed to visitors because of COVID-19 lockdowns. Glebiowski said, “I can only guess that Echo picked it up from our guests. ___39___ But this concerns me, as I thought the zoo was a happy place for families to visit!”

（2022·安徽省舒城中学模拟预测）Would it surprise you to learn that the vast majority of adults—around 75 per cent—tell up to two lies every day ____16____
Why people lie
Over 20 % of lies are told in a bid to avoid other people; 20 % are jokes or pranks; 14 %are told in self-protection; 13 % are attempts to make a good impression; 11 % are told to protect others; and 9% are for personal gain.
How to spot a liar
So, are there any body language giveaways that can help “out” someone who’s lying Back in 2015, University of Michigan researchers identified some common behaviours among liars, including grimacing(作怪相), looking directly at the questioner in order to appear trustworthy, or looking to the right, and overcompensating by gesturing with both hands. ____17____.
____18____
Vocal factors can offer a good clue, too. People who are being deliberately dishonest—or who lack certainty in what they’re saying— tend to speak slower and place less emphasis on the middle of words, according to a previous study.Interestingly, the researchers also found that listeners automatically registered these voice changes as a sign of dishonesty, even when they weren’t being asked to do so.
It’s important to remember though that none of these pointers offer undeniable evidence that you’re dealing with a liar. ____19____
How to cope with a liar
Instead of accusing someone outright of lying, try “fact-checking” what they’re saying by asking lots of questions. Deceptive people generally can’t provide specifics and their tales start to unravel(解体). Catch someone out in this way, which at least kickstarts a more honest conversation.
____20____If a friend fakes a headache because they’re afraid you’re going to be angry with them for cancelling a night out, it probably requires a heart-to-heart, rather than an argument. Or ask yourself if you’ve ever done a similar thing to them, and if you have, let it go.
A．What liars sound like
B．What liars would say
C．After all, some people just grimace more or speak slower than others.
D．Examine the motive for the lie and remember it pays to pick your battles.
E．But if you’re dealing with a repeat offender, it’s time to rethink the relationship.
F．That's according to a recent US study where 630 participants were asked to keep a “daily deception(欺骗) journal” for three months.
G．A more recent study found that liars may unconsciously imitate the body language of those around them while their brains are otherwise engaged in telling lies.

（2022·全国·模拟预测）Are you a tiger According to the Chinese zodiac, people born in the Year of the Tiger are kind, caring and energetic.____21____Thus, while we admire the handsome animals, we also fear them. But there are lessons from the lives of these striking cats.
Tigers rarely feed in groups in the wild, but when they do, males allow females and cubs (幼崽) to eat first. ____22____We, too, should consider the needs of others before we act.
Tigers go after large prey, so they have big ideas. Despite all their planning, tigers only end up with a meal once out of every 12 attempts to catch something. Yet they do not give jom up; they keep trying until they succeed.
Most kinds of cats avoid water, but tigers enjoy water and are very capable swimmers. This fondness of water allows them to live in many different environments. Learn from the tiger, and decide for yourself what you can and cannot do.____23____ Explore surprising places.
Tigers’ love of water also allows them to hunt and fight crocodiles. Typically, tigers make a kill by biting the neck of their prey. But a crocodile’s neck has a thick coat of armor. Tigers are not put off by this. Instead, they change their strategy and attack the creature’s vulnerable (脆弱的) areas like its stomach or eyes. Like the tiger, don’t let difficult situations stop you from succeeding.____24____
Tigers are as different as people are. ____25____ So be yourself and show off your stripes (条纹).
A．Try things that others consider impossible.
B．The fur of every tiger has a unique pattern.
C．Therefore, people are different from each other in character.
D．Try more than one approach if your usual strategy isn’t successful.
E．As a result, tigers represent people who are ambitious and considerate.
F．In other words, big, strong male tigers think of others before themselves.
G．However, those characteristics are not generally associated with real tigers.
