To control the emotion of the child，the parent told the child：“a favorite uncle has just died and become a star to watch over you.”

　　The researchers tested about 130 parents，mostly moms，asking whether they had told similar lies.More than 70 percent said they taught their children that lying is unacceptable.Even so，nearly 80 percent of the parents admitted they had told at least one similar lie.

　　Researcher Heyman suggested the reasons can be benefiting the parents themselves or protecting the child from scary issues，such as lying about a murder in the news.

　　“Children sometimes behave in ways that are likely to harm their long­term interests，”said Heyman.“It is common for parents to try out a number of strategies，including lying.When parents are dealing with the demands of getting through the day，concerns about possible long­term negative influences on children's beliefs about honesty are not necessarily at the front position.”

　　36．What can we learn from Paragraph 2?

　　A．Most parents don't lie to their children.

　　B．Many parents get used to teaching children by lying.

　　C．Honesty is no longer important in educating children.

　　D．There's no doubt that children often lie to their parents.

　　【解析】　细节理解题。从第二段中 Kang Lee 说的“We are surprised by how often parenting by lying occurs to our children”可知有很多家长在教育孩子的过程中会撒谎，故选B。
