Lines 1-2, Passage 1 (Liars may betray themselves through linguistic mistakes, but the main sources of betrayal are the emotions.) and lines 18-20 Passage 2 (Clumsy deceivers are sometimes visibly agitated, but in general there is no such thing as" typical" deceptive behavior)both contain instances of
a. simile b. paradox c.euphemism d.qualification e.understatement
为什么选D不选B呢? 后半句哪里限定了前半句呢?
答
"but"是全句重点,它代表了一个"转折"(大家也许会这样想,但事实却不是这样),而第一句的"main sources"(限定了emotion)和第二句的"in general"(限定了no typical deceptive behaviour)是关键字.
