14、a man named Juan Quesada built the hotel. He cut big blocks of salt from the desert and used the blocks to build it. Everything in the hotel is made out of salt the walls, the roof, the tables, the chairs and the beds.The sun heats the walls and roof during the day. So the rooms stay warm at night,

Ask a friend or a family member to imagine their mother with green hair. You should notice that their eyes lo

19、ok up to their left while they are imagining their mother. Then ask them to think about what they did this morning and their eyes will probably look up to the right. Basically, eye movement to the left indicates the person is imagining something that is not real or did not happen. When the eyes move

20、 up and to the right, the person is remembering something that actually happened. Body language is another way to see if someone is telling tales.

Some other forms of stress other than lying may explain their behavior, and some people

25、exhibit these signs as normal behavior. However, if you need to distinguish a lie from the truth, these tips could be a good start. 28.
