18、t of every 10 communications. If youre unmarried, that number drops to three. But look, if at some point you got lied to, its because you agreed to get lied to.

19、maybe to keep a private secret. Lying is complex. Were deeply disturbed by the truth.

26、D. How to tell truth from lies.C I was having a great morning until I sat down in front of my office computer. “Your password has expired(过期),” a message flashed on my screen, with instructions for changing it. Coming up with a new code doesnt seem like a big deal, unless you work at my company, whe

27、re we have to change it monthly, using at least one uppercase character, one lowercase character, one symbol, and one numeral. Oh, and the whole damn thing cant be fewer than eight characters. And I cant use any of the same passwords Ive used in the past three months. Suddenly I was furious. What di

As the month wore on, I felt a slow healing begin to take place. By the time the message reminded me to reset my password the following month, I felt fre
