Do you know of anyone who us the truth to deceive(欺骗)? When someone tells you something that is true,but leaves out important information that should be included,he can give you a fal picture.
For example.someone might say, "I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery.It was great.I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!"
This guy's a winner,right?Maybe,maybe not.We then discovered that he bought $200 worth of tickets,and only one was a winner.He's really a big lor!
He didn't say anything that was fal,but he left out important information on purpo(目的) .That's called a half-truth.Half-truths are not technically(技术的)lies,but they are just as dishonest.
Some politicians often u this trick.Let's say that during Governor Smith's last term,her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs.Then she eks(寻找)another term.One of her opponents(对手)says, "During Governor Smith's term,the state lost on million jobs!" That's true.However,an honest statement would have been. "During Governor Smith's term,the state had a net gain of two million jobs."
Advertirs will sometimes u half-truths.It's against the law to make fal statements so they try to mislead you with the truth.An advertiment might say, "Nine out of ten doctors advid their patients to take Yucky Pills to cure toothache." It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Company.
The kind of deception happens too often.It's a sad fact of life:Lies are lies,and sometimes the truth can lie as well.

According to a rearch,more than 130 billion pounds of uneaten food go to waste in Laura's county each year.That is about 30% of the yearly food supply(供应).It is a sad fact,especially when you consider how many families and homeless people are in hunger.
When Laura saw her school dining hall throw away food that was not eaten at all every d
ay,she came up with an idea.She started a project to help her school dining hall to give away uneaten food to homeless shelters(庇护所)in her community.In the past three years,the same project has spread to other schools and some fast food restaurants throughout the city.The project is called Feed & Find,and has already fed thousands of people in her city.
How does it work?Through an app,Feed & Find matches local homeless shelters with school dining halls and restaurants that have uneaten food to provide.When dining halls or restaurants have uneaten food left,they can u the app to share the information about the food.A truck driver working for the project is then nt to pick it up and take it to a shelter.
Pretty cool,right?It's not surprising that people in other cities have got in touch with Laura,hoping that she could help develop similar projects for their communities.
Some people,however,have concerns about the safety of the uneaten food.They think such food may not be clean enough.Still,this project is a clever way to help solve the problem of food waste and helps tho in need.
