Chaste women are often proud and froward, as presuming upon the merit of their chastity. It is one of the best bonds, both of chastity and obedience, in the wife, if she think her husband wise; which she will never do, if she find him jealous. Wives are young men's mistresses; companions for middle age; and old men's nurses. So as a man may have a quarrel to marry, when he will. But yet he was reputed one of the wise men, that made answer to the question, when a man should marry, - A young man not yet, an elder man not at all. It is often seen that bad husbands, have very good wives; whether it be, that it raiseth the price of their husband's kindness, when it comes; or that the wives take a pride in their patience. But this never fails, if the bad husbands were of their own choosing, against their friends consent; for then they will be sure to make good their own folly.
But this surely is one of the many false statements with which the real liar will try hard to idealize his failing: It may be inevitable and even just to tell lies, but it cannot seriously be argued that such habits are intelligent. A lie is always an act of mental cowardice, whereas intelligence is brave. And yet there was Bismarck, and yet there was Napoleon--surely intelligent men, and surely liars. The problem, therefore, is not so simple as it seems.
It was simple enough, in those old days, to define with approximate accuracy when a given statement ceased to be the truth and became a lie. The essential test was whether the maker of a false statement knew that he was saying something false, and consciously wished his audience to accept, and to remain under, this false impression. Life in civilized communities is a process of adjusting the personal to the social, of conforming the individual impression to the joint impressions of the common 'people. This process of adjustment leads inevitably and rightly to a certain unconscious deception. Absolute truth, whether unconscious or even conscious, is thus impossible. It is to relative truth only that we can hope to aspire.

The unpunctual man, on the other hand, never does what he has to do at the proper time. He is always【17】that he finds no time to answer letters, or return calls or keep appointments【18】. Friends sometimes grow cold towards each other, or even become enemies, because one of them has been remiss in answering letters or keeping appointments. Tile punctual man is a source of annoyance【19】to others and to himself. Unpunctuality, moreover, is very harmful when it comes to doing one' s duty, whether public or private. Failure to be punctual in【20】one' s appointments is a sign of disrespect towards others. A man who is known to be habitually unpunctual is never trusted by his friends or fellow men. In the end, he loses both time and his good name.

听力原文:W: Dr. Jolly, I like to know the purpose of today's discussion?
M: I want the parents to know a great deal about bringing up children.
W: How will this be achieved? By encouraging parents to watch their children and how they respond day by day?
M: So often a mother is liable to feel "He's playing quietly on his own. I can get on with my work," and so she's not with her child. The result is that the child very quickly becomes bored, playing on his own. Mothers need to know that, although they shouldn't necessarily be doing anything, they need to be with their child because this encourages him whether he's painting or whether he's making things or whatever it may be. If a mother is, say, working in the kitchen, her child wants her and just quietly calls to Mummy, but she doesn't respond until he shouts. So in effect, she's said to him "Unless you shout at me, I won't come." And then she comes to me and says "I've got a child who's always shouting." You find that in effect she's trained him to shout.
What's the topic of the discussion?
A.Bringing up children.
B.Helping children with their problems.
C.Training children to be calm.
D.Training children to speak up.
However, the opponents of interpretation insist that the writer and the editor should confine himself to the "fact". This insistence raises a question: What are the facts.'?
As to the first question, consider how a so-called "factual" story comes about. The reporter collects, say, fifty facts; out of these fifty, his space allotment being necessarily restricted, he selects the ten which he considers most important. This is Judgment Number One. Then he or his editor decides which of these ten facts shall constitute the lead of the piece (This is an important decision because many readers do nut proceed beyond the first paragraph). This is Judgment Number Two. Then the night editor determines whether the article shall be presented on page one, where it has a large impact, or on page twenty-four, where it has little. This is Judgment Number Three.
Thus, iii tire presentation of a so-called "factual" or "objective" story, at least three judgments are involved. And they are judgments not at all unlike those involved in interpretation, in which reporter and editor, calling upon their research resources, their general background, and their "news neutralism", arrive at a conclusion as to the significance of the news.
The two areas of judgment, presentation of the news and its inter pretation, are both objective rather than subjective processes—as objective, that is, as any human being can be. If an editor is intent on slanting the news, he can do it in other ways and more effectively than by interpretation. He can do it by the selection of these facts that support his particular excuse. Or he can do it by the play he gives a story—promoting it to page one or demoting it to page thirty.
The passage is mainly about______.
A.interpreting the news
B.writing objectively
C.presenting factual stories
D.choosing facts
