The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it.It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen，Charles Dickens，Fyodor Dostoevsky (I haven't read him，but haven't lied about it either) and Herman Melville.

　　Asked why they lied，the most common reason was to “impress” someone they were speaking to.This could be tricky if the conversation became more in－depth!

　　(ah，the big sellers，in other words).Forty－two percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story (I'll come clean: I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so).

　　【语篇导读】　本文是一篇议论文。在读书方面作者发现有许多人总是在别人面前说谎说自己曾经读过哪方面的书这样做是为了给别人留下深刻印象显示自己有学问。但是如果继续针对书的内容与其进行探讨随着话题的不断深入往往说谎者会原形毕露。

　　A.By judging his manner of speaking.

　　B.By looking into his background.

　　C.By mentioning a famous name.

　　D.By discussing the book itself.

　　解析　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“A friend I was talking...However可知作者的朋友说奥巴马的《父亲的梦想》这本书写得很精彩但是后来的话暗示他根本不知道奥巴马的背景情况很显然作者的朋友并没有读过那本书。由此可知作者是在和朋友讨论书的内容时发现了朋友是在说谎。故答案选D。
