cooks dinner for you，but it tastes terrible.Do you say so？No！You probably say，“Mmm，this is delicious！”Giving false (错误的) excuses：Sometimes people lie because they dont want to do something.For example，someone invites you to a party.You think it will be boring，so you say youre busy.Lying to hide bad news：Sometimes we dont want to tell someone bad news.For example，you have just had a very bad day at work，but you dont feel like talking about it.So if someone asks you about your day，you just say everything was fine.1Why do people tell “white lies” most of the time?Because they want to
