But when asked which authors they actually enjoy，people named J．K.Rowling，John Grisham，Sophie Kinsella (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)．

　　1．How did the author find his friend a book liar?

　　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　推理判断题。根据文章第一段的最后两句“However, he then went on to talk abour Mr.Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all.I sensed that I was talking to a book liar.”可以推断出通过讨论这本书的内容作者进而发现朋友在撒谎，故选D。其中，选项A在文中没有体现；选项B偷梁换柱，利用文中出现的his(Mr.Obama) background来迷惑考生；选项C看似在文中首段第二、三句有所体现，但它并不能很好地回答题干所提出的问题，答非所问，故排除。

　　答案　D

　　2．Which of the following is a “guilty secret” according to the World Book Day report?

　　A．Charles Dickens is very low on the top－ten list.
