Watch out for whoever uses the truth to deceive. Whenever someone tells you something that is 1 , but leaves out important information,by design more or less,that should be 2 , he can create a false impression.
For instance, someone might say, “I just　3　a hundred dollars on the lottery. It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to where i bought it and　4　it in for one hundred dollars!”
This fellow is a real winner, 5　? Maybe, or maybe not. We then find our he bought two hundred　6　, and only one was a winner. He’s actually a big　7　!
He said nothing that was　8　, but he deliberately left out some important　9　. That’s called a half-truth. Half-truths may not be technically　10　, but they are just as not　11　. 
Undependable candidates in　12　campaigns often use this trick. Let’s say that during Governor Blacksmith’s last term, the state lost one million jobs and　13　three million. Then he　14　another term. One of his opponents runs an ad　15　, “During Governor Blacksmith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” It’s true. 　16　, an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Blacksmith’s term, the state had a net gain of　17　million jobs. ”
Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It’s　18　the law to make false claims so they try to mislead you with the　19　. An advertisement might boast, “Nine out of ten doctors recommend Yucky Pills to cure nose pimples. ”It　20　to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Corporation. 
Deception of this kind happens often enough. It’s a sad fact in our life: Lies are lies, and the truth can lie as well from time to time.
